Risk of injury
The jack is designed only to raise and hol d
the vehicle for a short time while a whee l
is being changed.
If you are carrying out work on the vehicle,
you must use stands.
Make sure that the jack is placed on a firm ,
non-slip and level surface. Do not us e wooden blocks or similar objects as a jac
k
underlay. Otherwise the jack will not be
able to achieve its load-bearing capacit y
due to the restricted height.
Do not start the engine at any time while a
wheel is being changed.
Do not lie under the vehicle when it is bein g
supported by the jack. If you do not raise
the vehicle as described, it could slip off the
jack (e.g. if the engine is started or a door
or the boot lid is opened or closed) and you
could be seriously injured.

Notes on changing fuses
The fuses in your vehicle serve to close down
faulty circuits. If a fuse blows, all the compo -
nents on the circuit and their functions will
fail .
i Blown fuses must be replaced with fuses
of the same rating (which can be recog -
nised by the colour and amperage) and
which have the amperage specified in the
fuse allocation chart. A Mercedes-Benz
Service Centre will be happy to advise you. G
Risk of fire
Only use fuses that have been approved for
Mercedes-Benz vehicles and which have
the correct amperage for the system con-
cerned. Do not attempt to repair or bridge
faulty fuses. A circuit overload could other-
wise cause a fire. Have the cause trace d
and rectified at a qualified specialist work -
shop, e.g. a Mercedes-Benz Service Centre.
If the newly inserted fuse also blows, have the
cause traced and rectified at a qualified spe-
cialist workshop, e.g. a Mercedes-Benz
Service Centre. Practical advice
