ETS (Electronic Traction System) Traction control is part of ESP
®
.
Traction control brakes the drive wheels indi-
vidually if they spin. This enables you to pull
away and accelerate on slippery surfaces, for
example if the road surface is slippery on one
side.
Traction control remains active if you deacti-
vate ESP ®
. G
Risk of accident
Traction control cannot reduce the risk of an
accident if you drive too fast. Traction control
cannot override the laws of physics. 48

Risk of accident
Your attention must always be focused on the
traffic conditions.
Only use COMAN Dorthe telephone when the
road and traffic conditions permit.
Bear in mind that, at a speed of only
50 km/h, your vehicle covers a distance of
nearly 14 mper second. The navigation sys-
tem will not provide you with information
about stop signs, give-way signs, traffic regu-
lations or road safety features. It is up to you
to pay attention to these while driving the
vehicle. Only enter a new destination when
the vehicle is stationary.
This radio can be operated by anyone in
accordance with the relevant EC directive.
The equipment corresponds to curren tEuro-
pean and harmonised national standards.
This guarantees that the equipmen tconforms
to the relevant specifications regarding elec-
tromagnetic compatibility.
As a result, interference caused by your
equipment to other electrical/electronic
equipment and interference to your equip-
ment caused by other electrical/electronic
equipment can be largely prevented.
The equipment is approved by the vehicle
manufacturer in accordance with European
Automotive EMC Directive 95/54/EC. This
means that the equipment in your vehicle is
authorised for use accordin gto the given reg-
ulations. The equipment does not require cer-
tification
The equipment conforms to the relevant
equipment-specific EMC specifications in
accordance with the following European
standards:
EN 55013

R
the safety notes in this manual
R national road traffic regulations
i Improper work on electronic components
or other systems (such as radio, DVD
changer*) and their software may result in
malfunction or failure. Even systems that
have not been modified could be affected
because the electronic systems are con-
nected. Electronics malfunctions can seri-
ously compromise the operational safety of
your vehicle.
i Only have work on or changes to elec-
tronic components carried out at a quali-
fied specialist workshop which has the nec-
essary specialist knowledge and tools to
carry out the work. Daimler recommends
that you use a Mercedes-Benz Service
Centre for this purpose. In particular, work
relevant to safety or on safety-related sys-
tems must be carried out at a qualified spe-
cialist workshop.
Function restrictions while the vehicle
is in motion For safety reasons, some COMAND functions
are restricted or unavailable while the vehicle
is in motion
.You will notice this, for example,
because you will either not be able to select
