Environmental note
Do not dispose of batteries in the household
rubbish. Dispose of defective batteries in an
environmentally responsible manner. Take
them to a Mercedes-Benz Service Centre or
to a special collection point for old batteries. G
Risk of injury
For safety reasons, Mercedes-Benz recom-
mends that you only use batteries which have
been tested and approved for your vehicle by
Mercedes-Benz. These batteries provide
increased impact protection to prevent vehi-
cle occupants from suffering acid burns
should the battery be damaged in the event
of an accident.
To prevent acid burns, observe the following
safety notes when handling batteries:
R do not lean over the battery.
R do not place any metal objects on a battery.
Otherwise, you could cause a short circuit
and the battery's gas mixture could ignite.
R make sure that you do not create an elec-
trostatic charge, e.g. by wearing synthetic
clothing or as a result of friction on fabrics.
Therefore, you should not pull or slide the
battery over carpets or other synthetic
materials. R
never touch the battery first. To discharge
a possible electrostatic charge, step out of
the vehicle first and touch the bodywork.
R do not wipe the battery using a cloth. The
battery may explode as a result of electro-
static charge or due to flying sparks.
! Switch off the engine and ensure that no
ignition position has been selected before
detaching the battery terminals. All indica-
tor lights must be off in the instrument
cluster. Otherwise, you may destroy elec-
tronic components such as the alternator.
i Mercedes-Benz recommends that you
have work involving the battery, e.g.
removal, charging and replacement, car-
ried out at a qualified specialist workshop,
e.g. a Mercedes-Benz Service Centre.
Installation location of the battery The battery is fitted on the front bulkhead on
the right-hand side of the vehicle when
viewed in the direction of travel.

0015 Breather hose
i Set the Start/Stop button to ignition posi-
tion 0when you park the vehicle and you
do not need any electrical consumers .The
vehicle will then use very little energy, thus
conserving battery power.
i If the battery is discharged, you must use
the emergency key element to unlock the
vehicle. Battery
