To avoid hazardous situations, observe the
following:
R Only connect the charging cable to a wall-
box:
- which has been properly installed and
- which has been inspected by a qualified
electrician
R For safety reasons, only use charging
cables that have been tested and approved
by the manufacturer for charging the high-
voltage battery in an electric vehicle.
R Never use damaged charging cables.
R Do not extend the charging cable.
R Never use adapters.
R Observe the safety notes in the operating
instructions for the wallbox.
The vehicle's high-voltage electrical system is
under high voltage.
R Do not handle high-voltage components or
the orange cables of the vehicle's high-volt-
age electrical system.
R Do not touch high-voltage components or the
orange cables of the high-voltage electrical
system when a vehicle has been involved in a
crash.
R Do not touch any damaged components or
damaged orange cables of the vehicle's high-
voltage electrical system.
R Do not remove the covers of the high-voltage
electrical system components that are
marked with a warning sticker. Notes on the charging cable
Handling the charging cable and charg-
ing cable controls Do not leave the charging cable controls
(Y page 140) hanging loose from a mains
socket. Otherwise, this could result in a poor
contact with the mains socket and malfunctions
when charging the vehicle. To ensure that the brackets within the charging
cable controls are not subjected to incorrect
loads, observe the following:
R never lift or carry the controls by the charging
cable connector or the mains plug
R to transport the charging cable, the coiled
part can be:
- wrapped around the controls or
- secured to the housing of the controls
Heat generated by the charging cable
and charging cable connector Observe the important safety notes
(Y
page 134).
During the charging process, the charging cable
and charging cable connector may heat up.
The charging cable and charging cable connec-
tor will only heat up within the permissible lim-
iting values, provided that:
R the mains power supply and the charging
cable are not damaged
R the instructions for handling the charging
cable and controls on the charging cable are
observed
Should the permissible heating temperature lim-
its be exceeded, have the mains power supply
checked.
Protection device against overvoltage !
Voltage surges in the mains supply can dam-
age the vehicle. The vehicle is therefore
equipped with a device which protects it from voltage surges in the mains supply. This
device may be triggered during severe thun-
derstorms, for example, and may lead to the
building's fuse being tripped and an interrup-
tion in the power supply. These functions pro-
tect the vehicle. After the building fuse is
switched on again, the charging process
resumes automatically. Following an interrup-
tion in the power supply without tripping of
the building's fuse, it may take up to
15 minutes for charging to resume automat-
ically.
Switch on the building's fuse again after the
protection device against overvoltage has been triggered. Otherwise, the charging process can-not be continued. The high-voltage battery will
not be charged and you may not be able to drive
the vehicle. High-voltage battery
135Driving and parking Z
The transmission automatically shifts to posi-
tion Pwhen you open the driver's or front-
passenger door or when you remove the key
from the ignition lock. In order to ensure that the
transmission stays in position Nwhen towing
the vehicle, you must observe the following
points:
X On vehicles with KEYLESS-GO or the KEY-
LESS-GO start function: you must use the
key instead of the Start/Stop button
(Y page 127).
X Make sure that the vehicle is stationary.
X Turn the key to position 2in the ignition lock.
X Depress the brake pedal and keep it
depressed.
X Shift the transmission to position N.
X Release the brake pedal.
X Apply the electric parking brake.
X Deactivate tow-away protection (Y page 68).
X Deactivate automatic locking (Y page 187).
X Move the front wheels to the straight-ahead
position.
X Switch on the hazard warning lamps
(Y page 100).
X Turn the key in the ignition lock to position 0
and leave the key in the ignition lock. Transporting the vehicle
All vehicles !
You may only secure the vehicle by the
wheels, not by parts of the vehicle such as
axle or steering components. Otherwise, the
vehicle could be damaged.
X Turn the key to position 2in the ignition lock
(Y page 126).
X Shift the transmission to position N.
As soon as the vehicle is loaded:
X Prevent the vehicle from rolling away by
applying the electric parking brake.
X Shift the transmission to position P.
X Turn the key to position 0in the ignition lock
and remove it.
X Secure the vehicle.
The towing eye can be used to pull the vehicle
onto a trailer or transporter for transportation. Electrical fuses

WARNING
If you manipulate, bridge or replace a faulty
fuse with a fuse of a higher amperage, the
electric cables could be overloaded. This may result in a fire. There is a risk of an accident
and injury.
Always replace faulty fuses with specified newfuses of the correct amperage.
Blown fuses must be replaced with fuses of the same rating, which you can recognise by the
colour and fuse rating. The fuse ratings are listed
in the fuse allocation chart.
If the newly inserted fuse also blows, have the
cause traced and rectified at a qualified special- ist workshop, e.g. a Mercedes-Benz Service
Centre.
! Only use fuses that have been approved for
Mercedes-Benz vehicles and which have the
correct fuse rating for the system concerned.
Only use fuses marked with an "S". Compo-
nents or systems could otherwise be dam-
aged.
The fuses in your vehicle disconnect faulty cir-
cuits. If a fuse blows, all the components on the circuit and their functions will fail. Before replacing a fuse
X Safeguard the vehicle against rolling away
(Y page 145).
X Switch off all electrical consumers.
X Vehicles without KEYLESS-GO: remove the
key from the ignition lock.
X Vehicles with KEYLESS-GO start-function
or KEYLESS-GO: open the driver's door.
The on-board electronics now have status 0.
This is the same as the key having been
removed.
The fuses are located in various fuse boxes: R fuse box in the engine compartment on the
left-hand side of the vehicle, when viewed in
the direction of travel
