WARNING
If you operate information systems and com-
munication equipment integrated in the vehi- cle while driving, you will be distracted from
traffic conditions. You could also lose control of the vehicle. There is a risk of an accident.
Only operate the equipment when the traffic
situation permits. If you are not sure that this
is possible, park the vehicle paying attention
to traffic conditions and operate the equip-
ment when the vehicle is stationary.
You must observe the legal requirements for
the country in which you are currently driving when operating integrated information sys-
tems and communications equipment.
Only use information systems and communi-
cations devices if this is permitted while driv-
ing and if the traffic situation permits. You
may otherwise be distracted from the traffic
conditions, cause an accident and injure
yourself and others.
From the "My Mercedes Electric - Vehicle
Homepage", you can call up remote query and
remote configuration functions for your vehi-
cle. This is possible from an Internet-enabled computer, as well as many modern smart-
phones.
You can access the "Vehicle Homepage" via
your web browser.
Please call the Mercedes-Benz Customer
Assistance Center (USA) at the hotline num-
ber
1-800-FOR-MERCedes (1-800-367-6372)
to obtain the relevant Internet address.
In order to use the "Vehicle Homepage", you
must agree to the applicable terms of use.
The contractual periods of mbrace apply to
the "Vehicle Homepage". To use the "Vehicle Homepage", you require an activated mbrace
access and a separate activation/registra-
tion for the "Vehicle Homepage". Further information about the supported end
devices, available languages and contractual
periods is available at any authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center.
In order to call up the "Vehicle Homepage",
the vehicle must be connected to the Inter-
net.
This is possible via the radio module
(Y page 153).
Notes on data protection Bear in mind that the "Vehicle Homepage"
offers access to your data. Therefore, look
after the vehicle verification code (VVC) and
your user details carefully.
The vehicle verification code (VVC) is required when you register for the first time on the
"Vehicle Homepage". Using this code, the
vehicle and the user access are linked to each other on the "Vehicle Homepage", enabling
the intended usage. You can obtain further
information from an authorized Mercedes-
Benz Center.
Prevent unauthorized persons from
accessing this data.
Every person who has access to the informa- tion stated can use the functions on the "Vehi-
cle Homepage".
R If you sell your vehicle, you are obliged to
delete the vehicle from your personal area
on the "Vehicle Homepage". Additionally,
you must destroy documents containing
the vehicle verification code (VVC).
R If you have bought a used vehicle, it is pos-
sible that the previous owner still has
access to the "Vehicle Homepage". If in
doubt, have a new vehicle verification code
(VVC) issued by the Mercedes-Benz Center
after purchase. With the code you can set
up access to your vehicle, as described in
the section "Setting up a personal area" on
the Vehicle Homepage". There, you may
also deactivate the existing access of the
previous owner. 152
High-voltage batteryDriving and parking
Calling up functions in the "My
Mercedes Electric - Vehicle Homepage"
The "My Mercedes Electric - Vehicle Home-
page" allows you access to information about your vehicle and its functions using remote
query and remote configuration. For example,
climate control can be activated using remote
configuration which means that it need not be set in the vehicle. Power for the climate con-
trol is primarily supplied via the charging
cable connected to the mains supply. In this
way, the range of the vehicle in most cases is not reduced. If climate control is activated,
the battery charge level and thus the range
may be reduced. The "Vehicle Homepage"
provides you with information all about how
to use your vehicle.
If the vehicle is entered in your personal area of the "Vehicle Homepage", you can also
access the following functions:
R request the current condition of charge of
the high-voltage battery
R program the departure time (Y page 195)
R order and activate the "Pre-entry climate
control at departure time" function
If the vehicle is charging, the predicted charg-
ing time and the predicted range will also be
shown.
This data is estimated and may be influenced
by the following factors:
R outside temperature
R switched on consumers, e.g. climate con-
trol and seat heating
R personal driving style
R road and traffic conditions
R route characteristics
Therefore, allow for a sufficient reserve.
i Information on additional functions and
operating instructions can be found on the "Vehicle Homepage". Connecting the vehicle to the Internet Via a radio module
This function is not available in all countries
and requires an activated mbrace access.
You can use the "Vehicle Homepage" if the
vehicle has a connection to the Internet via a mobile phone. The radio module uses a
mobile phone connection and transmits the
necessary data by radio. The vehicle auto-
matically recognizes whether a connection tothe Internet via the radio module is possible
or not. No presets are necessary.
To enable the transfer of data via the mobile
communications module, you do not need a
SIM card.
i Restrictions in reception are possible if
the vehicle is in an underground car park,
for example. Restrictions may also occur in areas with poor mobile network coverage. Parking

WARNING
If you release the parking brake on uphill or
downhill gradients, the vehicle can begin to
move when in park position P. There is a risk
of an accident.
To avoid hazardous situations:
R prevent the parked vehicle from rolling on
uphill or downhill gradients by always
applying the parking brake.
R do not park the vehicle on uphill or downhill
gradients if the parking brake is malfunc-
tioning. Parking

MSolutions Only the red segments
in the PARKTRONIC
warning displays are lit.
You also hear a warning
tone for approximately
two seconds.
PARKTRONIC is then
deactivated and the
indicator lamp on the
PARKTRONIC button
lights up. PARKTRONIC has malfunctioned and has switched off.
X If problems persist, have PARKTRONIC checked at a qualified
specialist workshop. Only the red segments
in the PARKTRONIC
warning displays are lit.
PARKTRONIC is then
deactivated. The PARKTRONIC sensors are dirty or there is interference.
X Clean the PARKTRONIC sensors (Y page 275).
X Switch the ignition back on. The problem may be caused by an external source of radio or
ultrasound waves.
X See if PARKTRONIC functions in a different location. Active Parking Assist
General notes Active Parking Assist is an electronic parking
aid with ultrasound. It measures the road on
both sides of the vehicle. A parking symbol
indicates a suitable parking space. Active
steering intervention can assist you during
maneuvering and parking. You may also use
PARKTRONIC (Y page 165).
Important safety notes Active Parking Assist is merely an aid. It is not
a replacement for your attention to your
immediate surroundings. You are always
responsible for safe maneuvering, parking
and exiting a parking space. Make sure that
no persons, animals or objects are in the
maneuvering range.
When PARKTRONIC is switched off, Active
Parking Assist is also unavailable. G
WARNING
While parking or pulling out of a parking
space, the vehicle swings out and can drive
onto areas of the oncoming lane. This could
result in a collision with another road user.
There is a risk of an accident.
Pay attention to other road users. Stop the
vehicle if necessary or cancel the Active Park- ing Assist parking procedure.
! If unavoidable, you should drive over
obstacles such as curbs slowly and not at a sharp angle. Otherwise, you may damage
the wheels or tires.
Active Parking Assist may possibly indicate
parking spaces which are not suitable for
parking, for example:
R where parking or stopping is prohibited
R in front of driveways or entrances and exits
R on unsuitable surfaces 168
