Deviations with respect to aerial locations,
output and frequencies must be approved by
Mercedes-Benz.
Other aerial positions
There is no restriction for aerial positions in
the outer area of the vehicle for these wave-
bands: trunked radio/Tetra, 70 cm wave-
band, GSM 900/AMPS, GSM 1800 and
UMTS.
Legal provisions for fittings must be
observed.
RF transmitters with a maximum transmis-
sion output of 100 mW (PEAK) may be used
in the vehicle without restrictions.
! The operating permit may be invalidated
if the instructions for installation and use of
RF transmitters are not observed, e.g.
approved wavebands, maximum output
and aerial positions on the vehicle. Vehicle identification plates

Notes on fuel consumption
The vehicle will use more fuel than usual in
the following situations:
R at very low temperatures
R in urban traffic
R on short trips
R when towing a trailer
R in mountainous terrain
i Only for certain countries: the respective
current consumption and emission values
of your vehicle can be found in the COC
papers (EC CERTIFICATE OF CONFORM-
ITY). These documents are supplied when
the vehicle is delivered.
The consumption figures for vehicles falling
under the EURO4 standard have been
determined in accordance with EU Direc-
tive 80 /1268 /EEC while figures for vehi-
cles falling under the EURO5 standard have
been determined in accordance with Reg-
ulation (EC) No. 715 / 2007, in each case
based on the currently applicable version.
The values do not refer to a specific vehicle.
Deviations from these values may occur
under normal operating conditions.
! Do not use any special additives, as they
can cause malfunctions and engine dam-
age. Damage resulting from the use of such
additives is not covered by the Mercedes-
Benz implied warranty. H
Environmental note
CO 2(carbon dioxide) is the gas which scien-
tists believe to be principally responsible for
global warming (the greenhouse effect). Your
vehicle's CO 2emissions are directly related to
fuel consumption and therefore depend on:
R efficient use of the fuel by the engine
R driving style
R other non-technical factors, such as envi-
ronmental influences or road conditions You can minimise your vehicle's CO
2emis-
sions by driving carefully and having it serv-
iced regularly. AdBlue
®
i For BlueTEC vehicles only.
AdBlue ®
is a non-flammable, non-toxic, col-
ourless and odourless water-soluble fluid.
! Only use AdBlue ®
compliant with
ISO 22241. The use of special additives is
not permitted.
! Surfaces, such as carpets or paintwork,
which come into contact with AdBlue ®
while refilling should be rinsed immediately
with plenty of water. Immediately after
spilling, remove AdBlue ®
using a damp
cloth and cold water. If AdBlue ®
has
already crystallised, use a sponge and hot
water to clean it off. AdBlue ®
residues crys-
tallise after a certain period of time and soil
the affected surfaces.
High outside temperatures If AdBlue
®
is heated to above 50 † for an
extended period of time, e.g. due to direct
sunlight on the AdBlue ®
tank, AdBlue ®
may
start to decompose. Ammonia vapours may
develop as a result. G
Risk of injury
Ammonia vapours may escape if the
AdBlue ®
tank cap is opened at high tempera-
tures. Ammonia vapours have a pungent
odour and are particularly irritating to the
skin, to mucous membranes and to the eyes.
You may experience a burning sensation in
your eyes, nose and throat, as well as cough-
ing and watering of the eyes.
Do not inhale ammonia vapours. 288
