Ve hicle el ectron ics
! Only have th eengine electronics and asso-
ciated parts, such as control units, sensors or
connec tor leads, serviced at a qualified spe cial-
is tworkshop. Otherwise, vehicle parts may wear
more quickly and the vehicle warranty and gen-
eral operating permit may be invalidated. Electrical and electronic equipment can
jeopardise the operational safety of your
vehicle. If equipment of th iskind is retrofit-
te d, it must be typ eappro vedand must
bear the emark .The emark can be ob-
tained from the equipment manufacturer
or an authorised testing authority.
If you wish to install telephones or two-way
radios in the vehicle, you must obtain for-
mal approval. Mercedes-Benz approves
the installation of mobile telephones and
two-w ayradios provide dthat they are in-
stalled professionally and a low-reflection
exterior aerial is used.
The transmission output of the telephone
or two-way radio must not exceed the max-
imum transmission outputs specif ied on
the next page. Vehicle electronics
