Starting and turning off the engine
Before starting
Important!
Due to the installed starter nonrepeat feature, the key
must be turned completely to the left before attempting
to start the engine again.
Ensure that parking brake is engaged and that selector
lever is in position “P” or “N”. Turn key in steering lock
to position 2.
In areas where temperatures frequently drop below
-4°F (-20°C) we recommend that an engine block heater
be installed. Your authorized Mercedes-Benz Center will
advise you on this subject.
Starting
Do not depress accelerator. Briefly turn key in steering
lock clockwise to the stop and release. The starter will
engage until the engine is running.
Turning off
Turn the key in the steering lock to position 0 to stop the
engine.
If engine will not run, and the starting procedure stops,
turn key completely to the left and repeat starting the
engine.
Vehicles with automatic transmission:
The key can only be removed with your foot off the
brake pedal and the selector lever in position “P”.
After several unsuccessful attempts, have the system
checked at the nearest authorized Mercedes-Benz
Center.
