edge and tools to carry out the work required.
Mercedes -Benz recommends that you use a

ger protec tyou and other person sasinten-
ded .Ina ddition, there is arisk that you may

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 longer pro-

trol of your vehicle and thus cause an acci-
dent.

func tions in system swhich hav enot been
modified. Malfunction ssuch 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. G
WARNING
If you drive over obstacle sathigh speed or if
the vehicle bottoms out in rough terrain, 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
