Do not start the engine if the battery is
frozen. Let the battery thaw out first.
Warning!
G
!
Vehicles with automatic transmission
and/or 4MATIC:
Do not tow-start the vehicle.
Only jump start from batteries with the
same voltage rating (12V). Jump
starting with a higher voltage battery
could damage the vehicle’s electrical
system, which will not be covered by
the Mercedes-Benz Limited Warranty.
Failure to follow these directions will cause
damage to the electronic components, and
can lead to a battery explosion and severe
injury or death.
!
Avoid repeated and lengthy starting
attempts.
Do not attempt to start the engine using a bat-
tery quick charge unit.
Never lean over batteries while connecting
or jump starting, you might get injured.
If engine does not run after several unsuccessful
starting attempts, have it checked at the nearest
authorized Mercedes-Benz Center.

Only use jumper cables with sufficient
cross-section and insulated terminal
clamps.
Battery fluid contains sulfuric acid. Do not
allow this fluid to come in contact with eyes,
skin or clothing. In case it does, immediately
flush affected area with water, and seek
medical help if necessary.
Excessive unburned fuel generated by repeated
failed starting attempts may damage the catalyt-
ic converter and may present a fire risk.
Always make sure the jumper cables
are not on or near pulleys, fans, or oth-
er parts that move when an engine is
started or running.
Make sure the jumper cables do not have loose
or missing insulation.
A battery will also produce hydrogen gas,
which is flammable and very explosive. Keep
flames or sparks away from battery, avoid
improper connection of jumper cables,
smoking, etc.
Make sure the cable clamps do not touch any
other metal part while the other end is still at-
tached to a battery.
Warning!
G
If the battery is discharged, the engine can
be started with jumper cables and the
battery of another vehicle. Observe the
following:
Keep flames or sparks away from battery.
Do not smoke.
Attempting to jump start a frozen battery
can result in it exploding, causing personal
injury.
Observe all safety instructions and precau-
tions when handling automotive batteries
୴ page 279).
ț
Jump starting should only be performed
when the engine and catalytic con-
verter are cold.
Read all instructions before proceeding.
