Important safety notes G
WARNING
Operating mobile communications equip-
ment while driving distracts you from paying
attention to traffic conditions. This could also cause you to lose control of the vehicle. There
is a risk of an accident.
Use this device only when the vehicle is sta-
tionary.
i You must observe the legal requirements
for the country in which you are currently driving when operating mobile communi-
cations equipment in the vehicle.
If it is permitted by law to operate commu-
nications equipment while the vehicle is in
motion, you may only do so if the traffic sit-
uation permits. You may otherwise be dis-
tracted from the traffic conditions, cause
an accident and injure yourself and others.
Excessive levels of electromagnetic radiation
may cause damage to your health and to the
health of others. The use of an exterior aerial takes into consideration the scientific discus-
sion surrounding the possible health risk
posed by electromagnetic fields.
Mercedes-Benz recommends the use of an
approved exterior aerial. This ensures:
R optimal mobile phone reception quality in
the vehicle
R that mutual interference between the vehi-
cle electronics and mobile phones is mini-
mised
An exterior aerial has the following advan-
tages:
R it conducts the electromagnetic fields gen-
erated by a wireless device to the exterior
R the field strength in the vehicle interior is
lower than in a vehicle that does not have
an exterior aerial

General notes There are various mobile phone brackets that
may be fitted in your vehicle; in some cases,
these are country-specific.
You can connect a Bluetooth ®
-capable
mobile phone with COMAND Online through
the Bluetooth ®
interface. This also applies if
your vehicle is equipped with convenience
telephony. Features

More information on suitable mobile phones,
mobile phone brackets and on connecting
Bluetooth ®
-capable mobile phones with
COMAND Online can be obtained:
R at your Mercedes-Benz Service Centre
R on the Internet at http://www.mercedes-
benz.com/connect
i The functions and services available when
you use the phone depend on your mobile
phone model and service provider.
Using a mobile phone If the mobile phone is inserted in the mobile
phone bracket, the mobile phone will be
charged and connected with the exterior aer-
ial.
X Open the telephone compartment
(Y page 545).
X Place the mobile phone bracket into the
pre-installed fitting; see the separate instal-
lation instructions for the mobile phone fit-
ting.
X Insert the mobile phone into the mobile
phone bracket; see the separate installa-
tion instructions for the mobile phone fit-
ting.
Operating the mobile phone You can operate the telephone using the
6 and~ buttons on the multifunction
steering wheel. You can operate other mobile
phone functions via the on-board computer
(Y page 235).
When you remove the key from the ignition
lock, the mobile phone is disconnected from
the hands-free system. Active calls will first
be transferred to the mobile phone directly. Charge maintenance socket
The battery may drain if the vehicle is left sta-
tionary for long periods. In this case,
Mercedes-Benz recommends attaching the
trickle charger to charge maintenance
socket :.
Charge maintenance socket :is designed
solely for connecting a trickle charger. A
trickle charger can be obtained from a
Mercedes-Benz Service Centre, for example.
X Switch the ignition off.
X Open the boot lid.
X Open the stowage well under the boot floor
(Y page 548).
X Remove the boot tub using the handle.
X Connect the trickle charger to charge main-
tenance socket :. Consult the manufac-
turer's operating instructions on how to do
so.
The boot lid can be closed, even if a trickle
charger is connected. Make sure that the
connector for both the connector cables is
outside of the vehicle.
The connector can then separate if the vehi-
cle is moved, even if you forget to disconnect
the connector cables. This prevents damag-
ing the cables and the trickle charger.
i A trickle charger connected to charge
maintenance socket only maintains the
current charge level of the vehicle's elec-
trical system battery. If the vehicle's elec-
trical system battery is discharged, it needs
to be charged with a battery charger. You 552
