Operating safety
Safet
ynotes G
Risk of accident and injury
Always have work on the vehicle carried out
by aq ualified specialist workshop. In particu-
lar, work relevant to safety or on safety-rela-
ted systems as well as maintenanc ework
must be carried out at aqualified specialist
workshop. The worksho pmust have the nec-
essary specialist knowledge and tools to carry
out the work required. Mercedes-Benz rec-
ommends that you use aMercedes-Benz
Service Centr efor this purpose. G
Risk of accident and injury
Some safety systems only function when the
engin eisrunning. Therefore, do not switch off
the engin ewhen driving. Otherwise, the
safety systems in your vehicle may no longer
function correctly and thereby not provide
you or other swith the intended degree of pro-
tection .This also increases the danger of your
losing control of your vehicle and thereby the
risk of causing an accident. G
Risk of accident and injury
Work carried out incorrectly, or alterations
made to the vehicle, e.g. re-routing of cables
under coverings, could cause the safety sys-
tems of your vehicle to stop workin gproperly.
The safety systems would thus no longer pro-
tecty ou and other persons as intended. In
addition, there is arisk that you may lose con-
trol of your vehicle and thus cause an acci-
dent.
All work and alteration stothe vehicle, e.g.
installations or modifications, should there-
fore be carried out at aqualified specialist
workshop. G
Risk of accident
If you drive over obstacles at high speed or if
the vehicle bottoms out in rough terrain, it
could cause heavy impacts to the vehicle
underbody, tyres or wheels. This could cause your vehicle to be damaged, which in turn
might lead to an accident. This also applies to
vehicles which are equipped with underbody
protection.
You should therefore drive over obstacles
slowly and preven
tthe vehicle from bottom-
ing out when driving off-road. If necessary,
have your vehicle inspected at aqualified spe-
cialist workshop. G
Risk of accident
If work on electronic equipment and its soft-
ware is carried out incorrectly, this equipment
could stop working. The electronic systems
are networked via interfaces. Tampering with
these electronic systems could cause mal-
function sinsystems which have not been
modified. Malfunctions such as these can
seriously jeopardise the vehicle's operating
safety and therefore your own safety.
You should therefore have all work and mod-
ification stoelectronic componentsc arried
out at aqualified specialist workshop. Vehicle registration
Mercedes-Benz may ask its Service Centres
to carry out technical inspections on certain
vehicles to improve their quality or safety.
If you did not purchase your vehicle from an
authorised specialist dealer and your vehicle
has never been inspected at aMercedes-
Benz Service Centre, it is possible that your
vehicle is not registered in your name with
Mercedes-Benz .Mercedes-Benz can only
infor myou about vehicle checks if it has your
registration data.
It is advisable to register your vehicle with a
Mercedes-Benz Service Centre.
Inform Mercedes-Benz as soon as possible
about any change in address or vehicle own-
ership. 18

Vehicles with the MOExtended run-flat
system are not equipped with the TIREFIT
kit. 36
It is therefore recommended to additionally
equipy ourvehicle with the TIREFIT kit when
fitting tyres that do not feature run-flat
properties, e.g. winter tyres.
i ATIREFIT kit is availablef rom any quali-
fied specialist workshop, e.g. aMercedes-
Benz Service Centre.
You willf ind notes on driving with aflat tyre
in the "Practical advice" section
(Y page 272). Tyre tread
G
Risk of accident
Bear in mind that:
R tyre grip decreases rapidly on wet roads
when the tread depth is less than 3mm.
Thus, you should replace tyres that have
insufficient tread.
R winter tyres should be replaced when the
tread depth is 4mmorless as they will no
longer provide adequate grip.
R the tread on atyre may not wear evenly.
Thus, you should regularly check the tread
depth and the condition of the tread across
the entire width of all tyres. If necessary,
turn the front wheelstof ull lock in order to
inspect the tyre tread more easily.
Otherwise, you could lose control of the vehi-
cle and cause an accident due to the reduced
grip of the tyres on the road. Tyre pressures
i You willf indatable of tyre pressures for
variouso perating conditions on the inside
of yourv ehicle's fuel filler flap. The applicable valuef
or the "Minispare"
emergency spare wheel*i sstated on the
spare wheel and in the technical data sec-
tion.
The load condition "partially laden" or "fully
laden" is defined in the table by the differing
number of passengers and amount of lug-
gage. The actual number of seats may vary
from this –more information can be found on
the vehicle's registration document.
If no other data is stated, the tyre pressures
specified on the fuel filler flap applyf or all
tyres approved for this vehicle. If
at yre size precedes atyre pressure, the tyre
pressure information following is only valid
for that tyre size. Instead of the complete tyre size, it may be
that only the rim diameter is stated, e.g.
R16or
16".
