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
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 nonrepeat 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".
