Warning !
Even when permitted by law, never operate a vehicle at speeds greater than the maximum speed rating of the
tires. Exceeding the maximum speed for which tires are rated can lead to sudden tire failure causing loss of
vehicle control and resulting in personal injury and possible death.
Parking
Warning !
To reduce the risk of personal injury as a result of vehicle movement, before turning off the engine
and leaving the vehicle always:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
Keep right foot on brake pedal
Firmly depress parking brake pedal.
Move the selector lever to position "P".
Slowly release brake pedal.
Turn front wheels towards the road curb.
Turn the key to steering lock position 0 and remove.
7.
Take your key and lock vehicle when leaving
Important !
It is advisable to set the parking brake whenever parking or leaving the vehicle. In addition, move selector lever to
position "P". When parking on hills, always set the parking brake.
Winter Driving Instructions
The most important rule for slippery or icy roads is to drive sensibly and to avoid abrupt acceleration, braking and
steering maneuvers. Do not use the cruise control system under such conditions.
When the vehicle is in danger of skidding, move selector lever to position "N". Try to keep the vehicle under control by
corrective steering action. Road salts and chemicals can adversely affect braking efficiency.
Increased pedal force may become necessary to produce the normal brake effect. We therefore recommend
depressing
the brake pedal periodically when travelling at length on salt-strewn roads. This can bring road salt impaired
braking efficiency back to normal. A prerequisite is, however, that this is done without endangering other drivers on
the road. If the vehicle is parked after being driven on salt treated roads, the braking efficiency should be tested as
soon as possible after driving is resumed while observing the safety rules in the previous paragraph.
Warning !
If the vehicle becomes stuck in snow, make sure that snow is kept clear of the exhaust pipe and from
around the vehicle with engine running. Otherwise, deadly carbon monoxide (CO) gases may enter
vehicle interior resulting in unconsciousness and death. To assure sufficient fresh air ventilation, open
a window slightly on the side of the car that is out of the wind.
Deep Water
Caution !
Do not drive through flooded areas or water of unknown depth. If you must drive through deep water, drive slowly to
prevent water from entering the engine compartment or being ingested by the air intake, possibly causing damage to
electrical components or wiring, to engine or transmission that is not covered by the Mercedes-Benz Limited
Warranty.
Passenger Compartment
Warning !
Always fasten items being carried as securely as possible. In an accident, during hard braking or sudden
maneuvers, loose items will be thrown around inside the vehicle, and cause injury to vehicle occupants
unless the items are securely fastened in the vehicle.
