WARNING
If work on electronic equipmen tand 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 jeopardise the vehicle's operating
safety and therefore your own safety.
You should therefore have all work and mod-
ifications to electronic components carried
out at aqualified specialist workshop. Declarations of conformity
Wireless vehicle components The following information applies to all com-
ponentsoft he vehicle and the COMAND sys-
tem which receive and/or transmit radio
waves:
The components of this vehicle which receive
and/or transmit radio waves are compliant
with the basic requirements and other rele-
vant provisions of Directive 1999/5/EC. You
can obtain further information from any
Mercedes-Ben zService Centre.
Electromagnetic compatibility The electromagnetic compatibility of the vehi-
cle components has been checked and certi-
fied according to the currently valid version
of Directive 72/245/EEC or the equivalent
ECE Regulation ECE-R1 0.Diagnostics connection
G
WARNING
If you connect equipment to adiagnostics
connection, it can affect the operation of the
vehicle systems. This could compromise the operating safety of your vehicle while driving.
There is
arisk of an accident.
Do not connect any equipment to adiagnos-
tics connection. G
WARNING
Loose equipment or cables hanging from a
device which are connected to adiagnostic
connection could impede pedal clearance.
The equipment or cables could get caught
between the pedals when driving and braking
suddenly. This could impair the function of the
pedals. There is arisk of accident.
Do not attach any equipment or cables in the
driver's footwell.
! If the engine is switched off and equip-
ment on the diagnostics connection is
used, the starter battery may discharge.
The diagnostics connection is only intended
for the connection of diagnostic equipment at
aq ualified specialist workshop.
Connecting equipment to the diagnostics
connection can lead to emissions monitoring
information being reset, for example. This
may lead to the vehicle failing to meet the
requirements of the next emissions test dur-
ing the main inspection. Qualified specialist workshop
Aq ualified specialist worksho phas th enec-
essary special skills, tools and qualifications

BAS PLUS (Brak
eAssis tSystem Plus)
i Observ ethe "Important safety notes "sec-
tio n(Ypage 62).
BAS PLU Sisonly available on vehicles with
DISTRONIC PLUS.
BAS PLUS provides braking assistance in haz-
ardous situations at speeds greater than
7k m/h and uses rada rsensor technology to
assess the traffic situation.
With the help of the radar sensor system, BAS
PLUS can detec tobstacles that are in the
path of your vehicle for an extended period of
time.
At speeds up to approximately 70 km/h, BAS
PLUS may also detect stationar yobstacles,
for example, stopped or parked vehicles.
To prevent afront-end collision, BAS PLUS
calculates the brake force necessary if:
R yo ua pproach an obstacle, and
R BAS PLUS ha sdetected arisk of collision
If you ar edriving at aspeed over
30 km/h:ify ou depress the brake sharply,
BAS PLUS automatically raises the brake
pressure to avalue adapted to the traffic sit-
uation.
If you are driving at aspeed under
30 km/h:ify ou depress the brake, BAS PLUS
is activated. Brakin gwill be carried out at the
last possible moment.
If BAS PLUS demands particularly high brak-
ing force, preventative passenger protection
measures (PRE-SAFE ®
)a re activated simul-
taneously.
X Keep the brake pedal depressed until the
emergenc ybraking situation is over.
ABS prevent sthe wheels from locking.
BAS PLUS is deactivated and the brakes func-
tion as usual,i f:
R you release the brake pedal.
R there is no longer any danger of arear-end
collision.
R no obstacle is detected in front of your
vehicle. The radar sensor system is switched off auto-
matically in the vicinit
yofradio telescope
facilities in the following vehicles:
R vehicles with COMAND Online and naviga-
tion
R vehicles with Audio 20 and Becker ®
MAP
PILOT
Becker ®
MAP PILOT must be connected;
see the separate operating instructions.
The radar sensor system must be switched off
using the on-board computer in the vicinit yof
radio telescope facilities in the following vehi-
cles:
R vehicles without COMAND Online and nav-
igation
R vehicles without Audio 20 and Becker ®
MAP PILOT
R vehicles for Australia
For information on switching off the radar
sensor system using the on-board computer,
see (Y page 225).
For BAS PLUS to assist you when driving, the
radar sensor system must:
R be switched on (Y page 225)
R be operational (Y page 245)
If the radar sensor system is malfunctioning,
BAS PLUS will not be available. The brake
system is still available with complete brake
boosting effect and BAS. G
WARNING
BAS PLUS cannot alwaysc learly identify
object sand complex traffic situations. BAS
PLUS cannot intervene in these cases. There
is ar isk of an accident.
Always pay careful attention to the traffic sit-
uation and be ready to brake.
In particular, the detection of obstacles can
be impaired if there is:
R dirt on the sensors or anything else cover-
ing the sensors
R snow or heavy rain
R interference by other radar sources 64
Driving safety systemsSafety

In particular, the detection of obstacle
scan
be impaired if there is:
R dirt on the sensors or anything else cover-
ing the sensors
R snow or heavy rain
R interference by other radars ources
R the possibility of strongr adar reflections,
for example, in multi-storey car parks
R an arrow vehicle travelling in front,e .g. a
motorcycle
R av ehicle travelling in front on adifferent
line G
WARNING
PRE-SAFE ®
Brake does not react:
R to people or animals
R to oncoming vehicles
R to crossin gtraffic
R when cornering
As aresult, PRE-SAFE ®
Brake may neither
give warnings nor intervene in all critical sit-
uations. There is arisk of an accident.
Always pay careful attention to the traffic sit-
uation and be ready to brake.
In order to maintain the appropriate distance
to the vehicle in front and thus prevent acol-
lision, you must apply the brakes yourself.
X To activate/deactivate: activate or deac-
tivate PRE-SAFE ®
Brake in the on-board
computer (Y page 219).
When PRE-SAFE ®
Brake is activated, the
Ä symbol appears in multifunction dis-
play, as long as the HOLD function is deac-
tivated (Y page 179). On vehicles with the
Active Parking Assist driving system, the
Ä symbol is displayed when position P
is engaged or you are driving faster than
35 km/h.
For PRE-SAFE ®
Brake to assist you when driv-
ing, the radar sensor system must be
switched on (Y page 225) and be opera-
tional. The radar sensor system is switched off auto-
matically in the vicinit
yofradio telescope
facilities in the following vehicles:
R vehicles with COMAND Online and naviga-
tion

For information on switching off the radar
sensor system using the on-board computer,
see (Y page 225).
Following damage to the front end of the vehi-
cle, have the configuration and operation of
the radar sensors checked at aqualified spe-
cialist workshop. This also applies to colli-
sions at slow speeds where there is no visible
damage to the front of the vehicle. Anti-theft systems

General notes Bear in mind that the engine can be started
by any of the vehicle occupants if there is a
KEYLESS-GO key in the vehicle. Locking and unlocking centrally You can start, lock or unlock the vehicle using
KEYLESS-GO. To do this, you only need carry
the key with you. When you touch the surface
of the sensors on the vehicle's outside door
handles, KEYLESS-GO establishes
aradio
connection between the vehicle and the key.
When the engine is started and whilst you are
driving, KEYLESS-GO also checksw hether a
valid key is in the vehicle by periodically
establishing radio contact.
You can combine the KEYLESS-GO functions
with those of aconventional key, e.g. using
KEYLESS-GO to unlock and pressing the
& button to lock.
When locking or unlocking with KEYLESS-GO,
the distance between the key and the corre-
sponding door handle must not be greater
than 1m. X
To unlock the vehicle: touch the inner
surface of the door handle.
X To lock the vehicle: touch sensor sur-
face :.
X Convenience closing feature: touch
