R
if they cause a change of the vehicle type
from that for which the vehicle's general
operating permit was granted
R if other road users could be endangered
R if the emission or noise levels are adversely
affected.

Tampering with the engine electron-
ics
G
WARNING
Always have work on the engine electronics
and related components carried out at a quali-
fied specialist workshop. Otherwise, the vehi-
cle's operating safety could be affected.
! Only have work carried out on the engine
electronics and its associated parts, such
as control units, sensors and connector
leads, at a qualified specialist workshop.
Vehicle components may otherwise wear
more quickly and the vehicle's operating
permit may be invalidated. Retrofitting two-way radios and
mobile phones (RF transmitters)
G
WARNING
Incorrect retrofitting of RF transmitters can
cause the vehicle electronics to malfunction.
The vehicle's operating safety and thus your
own safety are impaired.
Have aftermarket radio frequency transmit-
ting equipment installed at a qualified spe-
cialist workshop. G
WARNING
Incorrect retrofitting of RF transmitters can
lead to increased electromagnetic radiation in
the vehicle interior. Using an exterior aerial
takes into account current scientific discus-
sions relating to the possible health hazards
that may result from electromagnetic fields.
Have aftermarket radio frequency transmit-
ting equipment installed at a qualified spe-
cialist workshop.
! The operating permit may be invalidated
if the instructions for installation and use of
RF transmitters are not observed.
In particular, the following conditions must
be complied with:
R only approved wavebands may be used.
R the maximum permissible output in
these wavebands must be complied with.
R the approved aerial positions must be
complied with. Saloon: approved aerial positions

®
General notes AdBlue
®
is a non-flammable, non-toxic, col-
ourless, odourless and water-soluble fluid.
High outside temperatures G
WARNING
If you open the AdBlue ®
tank cap, small
amounts of ammonia vapour may be released.
This depends in particular upon the age of the
AdBlue ®
.
Ammonia vapours have a pungent odour and
are particularly irritating to:
R skin
R mucous membranes
R eyes
You may experience a burning sensation in
your eyes, nose and throat, as well as cough-
ing and watering of the eyes.
Do not inhale any ammonia vapours that may
be released. Fill the AdBlue ®
tank only in well-
ventilated areas.
Low outside temperatures AdBlue
®
freezes at a temperature of approx-
imately -11 †. The vehicle is equipped with
an AdBlue ®
preheating system at the factory.
Winter operation can therefore be guaran-
teed even at temperatures below -11 †.
Additives !
Only use AdBlue ®
in accordance with ISO
22241. Do not use additives with AdBlue ®
and do not dilute AdBlue ®
with water. This
may destroy the BlueTEC exhaust gas after-
treatment system. Purity !
Impurities in AdBlue ®
(e.g. due to other
service products, cleaning agents or dust)
lead to:
R increased emission values
R damage to the catalytic converter
R engine damage
R malfunctions in the BlueTEC ®
exhaust
gas aftertreatment system
Assuring the purity of AdBlue ®
is particularly
important with respect to avoiding malfunc-
tions in the BlueTEC exhaust gas aftertreat-
ment system.
If AdBlue ®
is pumped out of the AdBlue ®
tank,
e.g. during repair work, do not use this fluid
to refill the tank.T he purity of the fluid can no
longer be guaranteed.
