Introduction
The printed Owner's Manual provides informa-
tion about the safe operation of your vehicle.
The Digital Owner's Manual additionally
describes further functions and equipment fit-
ted in your vehicle. The functions of the vehicle
and multimedia system are described in the Dig-
ital Owner's Manual. You can call up the Digital
Owner's Manual via the multimedia system.
i You will not incur any costs when calling up
the Digital Owner's Manual. The Digital Own-
er's Manual works without connecting to the
Internet.
There are three ways to access the topics of the Digital Owner's Manual:

vehicle interior section, select the "Vehicle
interior" view.
R Keyword search
The keyword search allows you to search for a
keyword by entering characters. Further

Digital Owner's Manual

You could jeopardise the operating safety of
your vehicle if you use parts, tyres and wheels as
well as accessories relevant to safety which
have not been approved by Mercedes-Benz. This
could lead to malfunctions in safety-relevant
systems, e.g. the brake system. Only use genu- ine Mercedes-Benz parts or parts of equal qual-
ity. Only use tyres, wheels and accessories that
have been specifically approved for your vehi-
cle.
Mercedes-Benz tests genuine parts and conver-
sion parts and accessories that have been spe-
cifically approved for your vehicle for their reli-
ability, safety and suitability. Despite ongoing
market research, Mercedes-Benz is unable to
assess other parts. Mercedes-Benz therefore
accepts no responsibility for the use of such
parts in Mercedes-Benz vehicles, even if they
have been officially approved or independently
approved by a testing centre.
In Germany, certain parts are only officially
approved for installation or modification if they
comply with legal requirements. This also
applies to some other countries. All genuine
Mercedes-Benz parts meet the approval
requirements. The use of non-approved parts
may invalidate the vehicle's general operating
permit.
This is the case:
R if they cause a change of the vehicle type from
that for which the vehicle's general operating
permit was granted
R if other road users could be endangered
R if the emission or noise levels are adversely
affected
Always specify the vehicle identification number (VIN) (Y page 328) when ordering genuine
Mercedes-Benz parts. Owner's Manual
Vehicle equipment
i This Owner's Manual describes all models
and all standard and optional equipment
available for your vehicle at the time of pub-
lication of the Owner's Manual. Country-spe-
cific differences are possible. Note that your
vehicle may not be fitted with all features
described. This is also the case for systems
and functions relevant to safety. Therefore,
the equipment on your vehicle may differ from that in the descriptions and illustrations. The original purchase contract documentation
for your vehicle contains a list of all of the sys-
tems in your vehicle.
Should you have any questions concerning
equipment and operation, please consult a
Mercedes-Benz Service Centre.
The Owner's Manual and Service Booklet are
important documents and should kept in the
vehicle. Operating safety
Important safety notes
G
WARNING
If you do not have the prescribed service/
maintenance work or necessary repairs car-
ried out, this could result in malfunctions or
system failures. There is a risk of an accident.
Always have the prescribed service/mainte-
nance work as well as necessary repairs car-
ried out at a qualified specialist workshop. G
WARNING
Flammable material such as leaves, grass or
twigs may ignite if they come into contact with hot parts of the exhaust system. There is a risk of fire.
When driving off road or on unpaved roads,
check the vehicle's underside regularly. In
particular, remove parts of plants or other
flammable materials which have become
trapped. In the case of damage, contact a
qualified specialist workshop. G
WARNING
Modifications to electronic components, their software as well as wiring could affect their
function and/or the operation of other net-
worked components. This could in particular
also be the 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 well as
electronic components or their software. 24
