Starting and turning off the enginge
248
Starting and turning off the engine
Vehicles with manual transmission:
Do not depress accelerator. Fully depress clutch pedal,
otherwise the engine cannot be started due to the
integrated safety interlock.
Before starting
Ensure that parking brake is engaged and that selector
lever is in position “P” or “N” (gearshift lever in
neutral). Turn electronic key in starter switch to
position 2.
Turn electronic key in starter switch clockwise to the
stop. Release only when the engine is firing regularly.
Important!
Starting
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.
Vehicles with automatic transmission:
Do not depress accelerator. Briefly turn electronic key in
starter switch clockwise to the stop and release. The
starter will engage until the engine is running.
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, see page 269.
If engine will not run, and the starting procedure stops,
turn electronic key completely to the left and repeat
starting the engine.
Turning off
After several unsuccessful attempts, have the system
checked at the nearest authorized Mercedes-Benz
Center.
Turn the electronic key in the starter switch to
position 0 to turn off the engine.
Vehicles with automatic transmission:
The electronic key can only be removed with the
selector lever in position “P”.
