Starting and Turning Off the Engine
Before Starting
Ensure that parking brake is engaged and that selector lever is in position "P" or "N".
Turn electronic key in steering lock to position 2. The charge indicator lamp should come on.
Starting (Model C 230)
Do not depress accelerator. Turn electronic key in steering lock clockwise to the stop.
Release electronic key only when the engine is firing regularly.
Starting
(Models C 280, C 43 AMG)
Do not depress accelerator. Briefly turn electronic key in steering lock clockwise to the stop and release.
The starter will engage until the engine is running. If engine will not run, and the starting procedure stops,
turn electronic key completely to the left and repeat starting the engine. After several unsuccessful attempts,
have the system checked at the nearest authorized Mercedes-Benz dealer.
Important!
Due to the installed starter non- repeat feature, the electronic key must be turned completely to the left before
attempting to start the engine again. The battery charge indicator lamp should go out as soon as the engine
has started. In areas where temperatures frequently drop below -4°F (-20°C) we recommend that an engine block
heater be installed. Your authorized Mercedes-Benz dealer will advise you on this subject.
Turning Off
Turn the electronic key in the steering lock to position 0 to stop the engine.
The electronic key can only be removed with your foot off the brake pedal and the selector lever in position "P".
