Drinking and driving and/or taking drugs
and driving are a very dangerous combina-
tion. Even a small amount of alcohol or
drugs can affect your reflexes, perceptions
and judgment.
Make sure that absolutely no objects are ob-
structing the pedal’s range of movement.
Keep the driver’s footwell clear of all obsta-
cles. If there are any floormats or carpets in
the footwell, make sure the pedals still have
sufficient clearance.
To save fuel you should:
ț
Keep tires at the recommended
inflation pressures.
ț
ț
ț
Remove unnecessary loads.
The possibility of a serious or even fatal
accident are greatly increased when you
drink or take drugs and drive.
Remove carriers when not in use.
During sudden driving or braking maneu-
vers, the objects could get caught between
the pedals. You could then no longer brake
or accelerate. This could lead to accidents
and injury.
Allow engine to warm up under low
load use.
Do not drink or take drugs and drive or allow
anyone to drive who has been drinking or
taking drugs.

Avoid frequent acceleration and
deceleration.
Have all maintenance work performed
at the intervals specified in the
Maintenance Booklet and as required
by the Maintenance System. Contact
an authorized Mercedes-Benz Light
Truck Center.
Fuel consumption is also increased by
driving in cold weather, in stop-and-go
traffic, on short trips and in hilly area.
