purchase agreement of your vehicle. Should
you have any questions concer ning equip-
ment and operation, please consult a
Mercedes-Ben zService Cent re. Oper
ating safety Safe
tynotes G
Risk of acciden
tand inju ry
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 workshop must have the nec-
essary specialist knowledge and tools to carry
out the work required. Mercedes-Ben zrec-
ommends that you use aMercedes-Benz
Servic eCentr efor this purpose. G
Ris
kofa ccident and inju ry
Some safety sys tems only functio nwhen the
engin eisrunning. You should therefor enever
switch off th eenginew hen dri ving. Otherwise,
th es afety systems of your vehicl emaynot
functio ncorrect lyand as aresul twillnol on-
ge rp rotect you and other persons as inten-
ded. In addition, there is arisk that you may
lose control of you rvehicle and thus cause an
accident. G
Risk of accident and injury
Work carried out incorrec tly, 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 working properly.
The safety systems would thus no longe rpro-
tect yo uand othe rpersons 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.
installation sormodifications, should there-
for ebec arried out at aqualified specialist
workshop. G
Risk of accident
If you driv eover obstacles at hig hspeed or if
the vehicl ebottoms out in rough ter rain, it
could cause heavy impact stothe vehicle
underbody, tyres or wheels. This coul dcause
your vehicle to be damaged, which in turn
might lead to an accident. This also applies to
vehicles which are equippe dwith underbody
protection.
You should therefore drive over obstacles
slowly. Preven tthe vehicle from bottomi ng
out when driving off-road and 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-
functions in systems which have not been
modified. Malfunctions such as these can
seriously jeopardis ethe vehicle' soperating
safety and therefore your own safety.
You should therefore have all work and mod-
ifications to electronic components carried
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 deale rand your vehicle
has never bee ninspected at aMercedes-
Benz Servic eCentre, it is possible that your
vehicle is not registered in your nam ewith
Mercedes-Benz. Mercedes-Ben zcan only
inform you about vehicle check sifithas your
registration data.
It is advisabl etoregister your vehicle with a
Mercedes-Ben zService Centre. Introduction
