unable to evaluate other parts. Mercedes-
Benzt herefore accepts no responsibility for
the use of such parts in Mercedes-Ben zvehi-
cles, even if they have been independently or
officially approved.
In Germany and some other countries, certain
parts are only officially approved for installa-
tion or modification if they comply with legal
requirements. All genuine Mercedes-Benz
parts meet this requirement .The use of non- approved parts may invalidate the vehicle's
general operating permit. This is the case if:
R
they cause achange of the vehicle type
from that for which the vehicle's general
operating permit was granted.
R other road users could be endangered.
R the emission or noise levels are adversely
affected. G
WARNING
Driving safety may be impaired if non-
approved parts, tyres and wheels or safety-
relevant accessories are used.
This could lead to malfunctions in safety-rel-
evant systems, e.g. the brake system. This
could cause you to lose control of your vehicle
and cause an accident.
For this reason, Mercedes-Ben zrecommends
that you use genuine Mercedes-Benz parts or
parts of equal quality. Only use tyres, wheels
and accessories that have been specifically
approved for your vehicle.

repairs or welding. You could impair the
operatin gefficiency of the restraint sys-
tems.
