Points to remember
An extensive Mercedes-Benz Service network
is also available in other countries. You can
obtain the relevant workshop directories
from any Mercedes-Benz Service Centre.
Only low-octane fuel is available in certain
countries.
You can find further information about fuel
grades on (Y page 175). Symmetrical dipped beam
If your journey takes you to countries where
vehicles are driven on the opposite side of the
road to the countryinw hich the vehicle is
registered, your headlamps must be switched
to symmetrical dipped beam or be partially
masked. Oncoming traffic will be dazzled
less.
X Vehicles with headlamps that cannot be
switched over: mask the headlamps with
special masking tape.
i You can obtain this masking tape from a
qualified specialist workshop, e.g. a
Mercedes-Benz Service Centre. !
Mercedes-Benz recommends that you
only use genuine Mercedes-Benz masking
tape. Your headlamps could otherwise be
damaged.
Remove the masking tape when you are
once again driving on the same side of the
road as in the countryinw hich your vehicle
is registered.
X Vehicles with headlamps that can be
switched over: have the headlamps
switched over at aqualified specialist work-
shop, e.g. aMercedes-Benz Service
Centre. G
Risk of accident
Have your headlamps switched back to
asymmetrical dipped beam if you visit a
countryinw hich traffic drives on the same
side of the road as in the countryinw hich
your vehicle was registered. You may oth-
erwise dazzle the oncomingt raffic and
could cause an accident. Service
