the mains socket
Charging cable Important safety notes
! Only use the charging cable to charge the
high-voltage battery. Do not use the charging
cable for other purposes. It may otherwise be damaged.
The vehicle is supplied with a three-phase 32 A
charging cable. A single-phase 13 A charging
cable (Switzerland: 16 A) can be optionally
ordered.
When charging the vehicle using the mains
socket, use the single-phase 13 A (Switzerland:
16 A) charging cable.
Observe the "Important safety notes"
(Y page 134).
If you use the supplied 13 A charging cable
(Switzerland: 16 A) as opposed to the 32 A
charging cable to charge the high-voltage bat-
tery:
R the charge time increases considerably
R electrical consumption increases considera-
bly
For this reason, always charge the high-voltage
battery from a wallbox (Y page 142) or at a
charging station (Y page 142). Only then can
certified electrical energy consumption levels
be reached.
i The charging process can vary depending on
the charging station. Therefore, always
observe the local information. High-voltage battery

Problems with PARKTRONIC
Problem
Possible causes/consequences and
M
MSolutions Only the red segments in
the PARKTRONIC warn-
ing displays are lit. You
also hear a warning tone
for approximately two
seconds.
PARKTRONIC is then
deactivated and the indi-
cator lamp on the
PARKTRONIC button
lights up. PARKTRONIC has malfunctioned and has been deactivated.
X If problems persist, have PARKTRONIC checked at a qualified spe-
cialist workshop. Only the red segments in
the PARKTRONIC warn-
ing displays are lit.
PARKTRONIC is then
deactivated. The PARKTRONIC sensors are dirty or there is interference.
X
Clean the PARKTRONIC sensors (Y page 245).
X Switch the ignition back on. The problem may be caused by an external source of radio or ultra-
sound 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 inter-
vention can assist you during manoeuvring and
parking. You may also use PARKTRONIC
(Y page 155).
Important safety notes Active Parking Assist is only an aid. It is not a
substitute for your attention to the immediate
surroundings. The responsibility for safe
manoeuvring and parking remains with you.
Make sure that no persons, animals or objects
are in the manoeuvring range.
When PARKTRONIC is deactivated, Active Park-
ing 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 cause you to collide with other road users.
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 obsta-
cles such as kerbs slowly and not at a sharp
angle. Otherwise, you may damage the
wheels or tyres.
Active Parking Assist may also display spaces
not suitable for parking, e.g.: R parking or stopping prohibitions
R in front of driveways or entrances and exits
R unsuitable surfaces
Parking tips:
R on narrow roads, drive as closely as possible
past the parking space
R parking spaces that are littered or overgrown
might be identified or measured incorrectly
R parking spaces that are partially occupied by
trailer drawbars might not be identified as
such or be measured incorrectly
R snowfall or heavy rain may lead to a parking
space being measured inaccurately 158

General notes
Some systems perform a self test when the ignition is switched on. Some warning and indicator
lamps may temporarily switch on or flash during the test. This behaviour is nothing to be concerned about.
The warning and indicator lamps will alert you to a malfunction if they switch on or flash after the
drive system is started or while driving. Wa

If it is permitted by law to operate communica-
tions equipment while the vehicle is in motion,
you may only do so if the traffic situation per-
mits. You may otherwise be distracted 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 vehicle
electronics and mobile phones is minimised
An exterior aerial has the following advantages:
R it conducts the electromagnetic fields gener-
ated 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
Information on retrofitting two-way radios and
mobile phones (RF transmitters) (Y page 280).
General notes There are various mobile phone brackets that
may be fitted in your vehicle; in some cases,
these are country-specific.
More information on suitable mobile phones,
mobile phone brackets and on connecting Blue-
tooth ®
-capable mobile phones to
COMAND Online/Audio 20 can be obtained:
R at your Mercedes-Benz Service Centre
R on the Internet at http://www.mercedes-
benz.com/connect
The functions and services available when you
use the phone depend on your mobile phone
model and service provider.
Using a mobile phone To connect a mobile phone to the exterior aerial
and charge it, insert it into the mobile phone
bracket. X
Open the telephone compartment
(Y page 226).
X Place the mobile phone bracket into the pre-
installed fitting; see the separate installation
instructions for the mobile phone fitting.
X Insert the mobile phone into the mobile phone
bracket; see the separate installation instruc- tions for the mobile phone fitting.
i The mobile phone can also be operated
without being in the bracket. However, the
charging function and aerial function are not
available.
In order to use Bluetooth ®
(SAP profile) on your
telephone module, you must first insert the tele-
phone module into the pre-installed fitting. This connects it to the exterior aerial. If you wish to
charge the mobile phone, then you must con-
nect it to a USB port.
Further information on the telephone module
with Bluetooth ®
(SAP profile) can be found in the
Digital Owner's Manual.
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 181).
When you remove the key from the ignition lock, the mobile phone is disconnected from the vehi-cle. You can then no longer make calls using the
hands-free system.
If a call is active and you remove the key from
the ignition lock, the conversation is transferred over to the mobile phone. It is then possible to
continue the conversation on the mobile phone. Features

WARNING
Objects in the driver's footwell may restrict
the clearance around the pedals or block a
depressed pedal. This jeopardises the oper-
ating and road safety of the vehicle. There is a risk of an accident.
Stow all objects securely in the vehicle so that
they do not get into the driver's footwell.
Always fit the floormats securely and as pre-
scribed in order to ensure that there is always sufficient room for the pedals. Do not use
loose floormats and do not place several floor- mats on top of one another. X
Slide the seat backwards.
X To fit: lay the floormat in the footwell.
X Press safety catch knobs :onto retain-
ers ;.
X To remove: pull the floormat away from
retainers ;.
X Remove the floormats. Retrofitted anti-glare film
Retrofitted anti-glare film on the inside of the
windows can interfere with radio/mobile tele-
phone reception. This is particularly the case for conductive or metallic-coated films. You can
obtain information about anti-glare film from a
qualified specialist workshop. 238
