Battery
Batteries contain materials that can harm
the environment if disposed of improperly.
Recycling of batteries is the preferred
method of disposal. Many states require
sellers of batteries to accept old batteries
for recycling.
Observe all safety instructions
and precautions when handling
automotive batteries.
Your vehicle’s battery is located on the
right side of the trunk floor (୴ page 366).
Risk of explosion
The battery should always be sufficiently
charged in order to achieve its rated ser-
vice life. Refer to Service Booklet for bat-
tery maintenance intervals.
Keep flames or sparks away
from battery. Do not smoke.
Battery acid is caustic. Do not
allow it to come into contact
with skin, eyes or clothing.
If you use your vehicle mostly for short-dis-
tance trips, you will need to have the bat-
tery charge checked more frequently.
In case it does, immediately
flush affected area with clear
water and seek medical help if
necessary.
When replacing the battery, always use
batteries approved by Mercedes-Benz.
If you do not intend to operate your vehicle
for an extended period of time, consult an
authorized Mercedes-Benz Center about
steps you need to observe.
