Protection of the environment
General notes
H
Environmental note
Daimler's declared policy is one of compre-
hensive environmental protection.
Our objectives are to use the natural resour-
ces which form the basis of our existence on
this planet sparingly and in a manner which
takes the requirements of both nature and
humanity into consideration.
You too can help to protect the environment
by operating your vehicle in an environmen-
tally-responsible manner.
Fuel consumption and the rate of engine,
transmission, brake and tyre wear depend on
the following factors:
R operating conditions of your vehicle
R your personal driving style
You can influence both factors. Therefore,
please bear the following in mind:
Operating conditions:
R avoid short trips, as these increase fuel
consumption.
R observe the correct tyre pressure.
R do not carry any unnecessary weight in the
vehicle.
R remove the roof rack once you no longer
need it.
R a regularly serviced vehicle will contribute
to environmental protection. You should
therefore adhere to the service intervals.
R all maintenance work should be carried out
at a qualified specialist workshop.
Personal driving style:
R do not depress the accelerator pedal when
starting the engine.
R do not warm up the engine when the vehicle
is stationary.
R drive carefully and maintain a safe distance
from the vehicle in front.
R avoid frequent, sudden acceleration and
braking. R
change gear in good time and use each gear
only up to Ôof its maximum engine speed.
R switch off the engine in stationary traffic.
R monitor the vehicle's fuel consumption. Returning an end-of-life vehicle
EU countries only:
Mercedes-Benz will take back your old vehicle to
dispose of it in an environmentally-responsible
manner in accordance with the European Union (EU) End of Life Vehicles Directive.
There is a network of return points and disas-
sembly plants available. You can return your
vehicle to these plants free of charge. This
makes a valuable contribution to the recycling
process and the conservation of resources.
For further information on recycling old vehi-
cles, recovery and the terms of the policy, visit
the Mercedes-Benz homepage. Genuine Mercedes-Benz parts
H
Environmental note
Daimler AG also supplies reconditioned
assemblies and parts which are of the same
quality as new parts. For these, the same war-
ranty applies as for new parts.
! Airbags and seat belt tensioners, as well as
control units and sensors for these restraint
systems, may be installed in the following
areas of your vehicle:
R doors
R door pillars
R door sills
R seats
R dashboard
R instrument cluster
R centre console
Do not install accessories such as audio sys-
tems in these areas. Do not carry out repairs
or welding. You could impair the operating
efficiency of the restraint systems.
Have accessories retrofitted at a qualified
specialist workshop. Genuine Mercedes-Benz parts

the front-passenger seat
The sensor system for the automatic child seat
recognition in the front-passenger seat detects
whether a special Mercedes-Benz child restraint
system with transponders has been fitted. In
this case, the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indica-
tor lamp lights up and remains lit. The front-
passenger front airbag is disabled.
i If the front-passenger front airbag is disa-
bled by the automatic child seat recognition,
the following remain enabled on the front-
passenger side:
R the sidebag
R the pelvisbag
R the windowbag
R the belt tensioner G
WARNING
If you secure a child in a child restraint system on the front-passenger seat and the
PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp is
off, the front-passenger front airbag can
deploy in the event of an accident. The child could be struck by the airbag. This poses an
increased risk of injury or even fatal injury.
Make sure that the front-passenger front air-
bag has been disabled. The PASSENGER AIR-
BAG OFF indicator lamp must be lit. G
WARNING
If the PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF indicator lamp is lit, the front-passenger front airbag is disa-
bled. It will not be deployed in the event of an
accident and cannot perform its intended pro-
tective function. A person in the front-
passenger seat could then, for example, come
into contact with the vehicle's interior, espe-
cially if the person is sitting too close to the
dashboard. This poses an increased risk of
injury or even fatal injury.
In this case the front-passenger seat may not be used. You may only transport a child on the
front-passenger seat if they are seated in a
suitable rearward or forward-facing child
restraint system. Always observe the infor-
mation about suitable positioning of the child restraint system in this Owner's Manual as
well as the child restraint system manufac-
turer's installation instructions. G
WARNING
If you secure a child in a forward-facing child
restraint system on the front-passenger seat
and you position the front-passenger seat too close to the dashboard, in the event of an
accident, the child could:
R come into contact with the vehicle's inte-
rior if the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indi-
cator lamp is lit, for example
R be struck by the airbag if the PASSENGER
AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp is off
This poses an increased risk of injury or even fatal injury.
Move the front-passenger seat as far back as
possible. Always make sure that the shoulder belt strap is correctly routed from the vehicle
seat-belt extender to the shoulder belt guide
on the child restraint system. The shoulder
belt strap must be routed forwards and down- Children in the vehicle

WARNING
If you secure a child in a child restraint system on the front-passenger seat and the
PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp is
off, the front-passenger front airbag can
deploy in the event of an accident. The child
could be struck by the airbag. This poses an
increased risk of injury or even fatal injury.
Make sure that the front-passenger front air-
bag has been disabled. The PASSENGER AIR- BAG OFF indicator lamp must be lit.
NEVER use a rearward-facing child restraint on a seat protected by an ACTIVE AIRBAG in front of
it, DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY to the CHILD can
occur.
Vehicles without automatic child seat
recognition on the co-driver's seat If the co-driver's seat of your vehicle is not
equipped with automatic child seat recognition,
this is indicated by a special sticker. The sticker is affixed to the side of the dashboard on the co- driver's side. The sticker is visible when you
open the co-driver's door.
The PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp
lights up briefly when the key is turned to posi-
tion
2in the ignition lock. It has no function,
however, and does not indicate that the co-driv-
er's seat is equipped with automatic child seat
recognition.
If you turn the key to position 2in the ignition
lock, the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF and
PASSENGER AIR BAG ON indicator lamps light
up briefly. They have no function, however, and do not indicate that the co-driver's seat is equip- ped with automatic child seat recognition.
Always fit the rearward-facing restraint system
to a suitable rear seat in this case (Y page 55).
Observe the following information under "Rear-
ward-facing child restraint system" and
"Forward-facing child restraint system" and on
suitable positioning of the child restraint system (Y page 55).
Rearward-facing child restraint system Warning symbol for a rearward-facing child
restraint system
If it is absolutely necessary to fit a rearward-
facing child restraint system to the co-driver's
seat, you must always make sure that the co-
driver's front airbag is deactivated. The co-driv-
er's front airbag is only disabled if the
PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF indicator lamp is lit
continuously (Y page 37).
Always observe the information about suitable
positioning of the child restraint system
(Y page 55) as well as the child restraint sys-
tem manufacturer's installation and operating
instructions. Children in the vehicle

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.
The fuse allocation chart is located in the vehicletool kit in the stowage compartment under the
boot floor (Y page 297).
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.
Otherwise, components or systems could be
damaged.
! Make sure that no moisture can enter the
fuse box when the cover is open.
! When closing the cover, make sure that it is
lying correctly on the fuse box. Moisture seep-
ing in or dirt could otherwise impair the oper-
ation of the fuses.
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
