Activating HOLD X
Make sure that the activation conditions
are met.
X Depress the brake.
X Depress the brake again quickly until
HOLD appears in the display.
HOLD is activated. You can release the
brake pedal.
i If depressing the brake pedal the first
time does not activate HOLD, wait briefly
and then try again. G
Risk of accident
The vehicle's brakes are applied when
HOLD is activated. For this reason, deacti-
vate HOLD if the vehicle is to be set in
motion by other means (e.g. in a car wash
or by towing).
Deactivating HOLD HOLD is deactivated if:
R
you
accelerate when the selector lever is in
position D or R
R you move the selector lever to position P
R you release the brakes completely and
apply them again with a certain amount of pressure until the
HOLD message in the
multi-function display goes out G
Risk of accident
Never get out of the vehicle when HOLD is
activated.
HOLD
must never be operated or deactiva-
ted by a passenger or from outside the
vehicle.
HOLD does not replace the parking brake
and must not be used for parking.
The HOLD braking effect is cancelled and
the vehicle can start moving if:
R HOLD is deactivated by depressing the
accelerator pedal or the brake pedal
R there is a malfunction in the system or an
interruption in the power supply, e.g. bat-
tery failure
R the electrical system in the engine com-
partment, the battery or the fuses are
tampered with
R the battery is disconnected G
Risk of accident
If you wish to leave the vehicle or park it,
deactivate HOLD and secure the vehicle
against rolling away. You will see a warning message in the multi-
function display if HOLD is activated and:
R
the
driver's door is opened and you release
the seat belt
R the ignition is switched off
R the bonnet is opened
Selector lever in park position
X Move the selector lever to P
to prevent the
vehicle from rolling away.
HOLD is deactivated. The warning message
in the multi-function display goes out.
A horn will also sound at regular intervals if
HOLD is activated and you:
R stop
the engine and open the driver's door
R open the bonnet
The horn draws your attention to the fact that
the vehicle has been parked while HOLD is
still activated. The sound becomes louder if
you attempt to lock the vehicle. The vehicle
is not locked until HOLD is deactivated.
i If the ignition has been switched off, the
engine cannot be restarted until HOLD is
deactivated.
If there is a fault in the system or power supply
while HOLD is activated, the Brake immedi-
ately message appears in the multi-function Controls

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 traced
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. !
Only use fuses that have been approved
for Mercedes-Benz vehicles and which
have the correct amperage for the system
concerned.
Otherwise, components or sys-
tems could be damaged.
The fuses are located in various fuse boxes:
R Main fuse box on the driver's side of the
dashboard
R Fuse box in the boot, on the left-hand side
of the vehicle
Fuse allocation chart The fuse allocation chart is in the main fuse
box in the dashboard. The fuse amperage is
also indicated there. Practical advice
