WARNING
Modifications to electroni ccomponents, their
software as wellasw iring couldaffect their
function and/or the operation of other net-
worked components. This coul dinparticular
alsobet he case for systems relevant to
safety .They might not function properly any-
more and/or jeopardise the operational
safety of the vehicle. There is an increased
risk of an accident and injury.
Do not attempt to modify the wiring as wellas
electronic components or their software.
Always have work on electrica land electronic
components carrie dout at aqualified special-
ist workshop.
If you make any changes to the vehicl eelec-
tronics, the genera loperating permi tisren-
dered invalid.
! There is
arisk of damage to the vehicl eif:
R the vehicl ebecome sstuck, e.g. on ahigh
kerb or an unpaved road
R you drive too fast over an obstacle, e.g. a
kerb or apothol einthe road
R ah eavy object strikes the underbody or
parts of the chassis
In situations like this, the body ,the under-
body ,chassi sparts, wheels or tyres coul dbe
damaged without the damage being visible.
Components damaged in this way can unex-
pectedl yfail or, in the case of an accident, no
longer withstand the strain they are designed
for.
If the underbody panelling is damaged, com-
bustible materials such as leaves, grass or
twigs can gather between the underbody and
the underbody panelling. If these materials
come in contact with hot parts of the exhaust system, they can catch fire.
In such situations, have the vehicl echecked
and repaired immediatel yataqualified spe-
cialist workshop. If, uponc ontinuing your
journey ,you notice that driving safety is
impaired ,pullo ver and stop the vehicl eimme-
diately ,paying attention to road and traffic
conditions. In such cases, consult aqualified
specialist workshop. Declarations of conformity
Wireless vehicle components The following information appliestoa

nents of the vehicl eand the information sys-
tems and communication devices integrated
into the vehicl ewhich receive and/or transmit
radi owaves:
The components of this vehicl ethat receive
and/or transmit radi owave sare compliant with
the basi crequirements and all other relevant
conditions of Directive 1999/5/EC .You can
obtai nfurther information from any Mercedes-
Benz Service Centre.
Electromagnetic compatibility The electromagnetic compatibility of the vehicle
components has been checked and certified
according to the currently vali dversio nofR eg-
ulation ECE-R 10. Diagnostics connection
The diagnostics connection is only intended for
the connection of diagnostic equipment at a
qualified specialist workshop. G
WARNING
If you connect equipment to adiagnostics
connection in the vehicle, it can affect the
operation of the vehicl esystems .This may
affect the operating safety of the vehicle.
There is arisk of an accident.
Do not connect any equipment to adiagnos-
tics connection in the vehicle. G
WARNING
Objects in the driver's footwel lmay restrict
the clearance around the pedals or block a
depressed pedal. This jeopardise sthe oper-
ating and road safety of the vehicle. There is a risk of an accident.
Stow all objects securely in the vehicl esothat
they do not get into the driver's footwell.
Always fit the floormats securely and as pre-
scribe dinorder to ensure that there is always
sufficient room for the pedals. Do not use Operating safety

Introduction to the restraint system
The restraint system can reduce the risk of vehi-
cle occupants coming into contact with parts of
the vehicle's interior in the event of an accident. Furthermore, the restraint system can also
reduce the forces to which vehicle occupants
are subjected during an accident.
The restraint system includes:
R Seat belt system
R Airbags
R Child restraint system
R Child seat securing system The various components of the restraint system
work complementary to one another. They can
only perform their intended protective function
if all vehicle occupants:
R have correctly fastened their seat belt
(Y page 42)
R have correctly adjusted their seat and head
restraint (Y page 102).
As the driver, you must also ensure that the
steering wheel is correctly adjusted. Observe
the information relating to the correct driver's
seat position (Y page 102).
Additionally, you must ensure that an airbag can
deploy freely (Y page 44).
The airbag is supplementary to acorrectly fas-
tened seat belt. As an additional safety device,
the airbag increases the level of protection for
vehicle occupants in the event of an accident. If
the protection provided by the seat belt is suf-
ficient, the airbags do not deploy. Furthermore, in the event of an accident, only airbags which
provide greater protection in the given accident
situation deploy. However, seat belts and air-
bags generally do not protect against objects
penetrating the vehicle from the outside.
Information on how the restraint system oper-
ates can be found in "Deployment of the seat
belt tensioner and airbags" (Y page 52).
See "Children in the vehicle" for information on
infantsa nd children traveling with you in the
vehicle restraint systems for infantsa nd chil-
dren(Y page 55). Important safety notes

WARNING
If the restraint system is modified, it may no
longer work as intended. The restraint system
may then not perform its intended protective function by failing in an accident or triggering
unexpectedly, for example. There is an
increased risk of injury, possibly even fatal.
Never modify parts of the restraint system. Do not attempt to modify the wiring as well as
electronic components or their software.
If modification of an airbag system is necessary to accommodate aperson with disabilities, con-
tact aqualified specialist workshop for details. Occupant safety
