Important safety notes
G
WARNING
Flammable material such as leaves, grass or
twigs may ignite if they come into contact with hot parts of the exhaust system or exhaust
gas flow. There is a risk of fire.
Park the vehicle so that no flammable mate-
rial can come into contact with hot vehicle
components. In particular, do not park on dry grassland or harvested grain fields. G
WARNING
If you leave children unattended in the vehi-
cle, they may be able to set the vehicle in
motion if, for example, they:
R release the parking brake
R shift the automatic transmission out of park
position P
R start the engine
In addition, they may operate vehicle equip-
ment and become trapped. There is a risk of
an accident and injury.
When leaving the vehicle, always take the key
with you and lock the vehicle. Never leave
children unattended in the vehicle. Parking

more effort to steer and brake. There is a risk
of an accident.
Do not switch off the ignition while driving. ECO display
The ECO display provides feedback on how
economical your driving characteristics are.
The ECO display assists you in achieving the
most economical driving style for the selec-
ted settings and prevailing conditions. Con-
sumption can be significantly influenced by
your driving style.
The ECO display consists of three bars:
R Accel.
Accel.
R Constant Constant
R Coasting
Coasting
The percentage count is the mean value of the three bar values. The three bars and the mean
value begin at the value of 50%. A higher per-
centage count indicates a more economical
driving style.
The ECO display does not indicate the actual fuel consumption. A fixed percentage count
in the ECO display does not indicate a fixed
consumption.
In addition to driving style, the consumption is
affected by many other factors, such as:
R load
R tyre pressure
R cold start
R choice of route
R the use of electrical consumers These factors are not included in the ECO dis-
play.
The evaluation of your driving style takes the following three categories into consideration:
R Accel.
Accel. (evaluation of all acceleration pro-
cesses)
- the bar fills up: moderate acceleration,
especially at higher speeds
- the bar empties: sporty acceleration
R Constant Constant (assessment of driving behav-
iour at all times)
- the bar fills up: constant speed and
avoidance of unnecessary acceleration
and deceleration
- the bar empties: fluctuations in speed
R Coasting Coasting (assessment of all deceleration
processes)
- the bar fills up: anticipatory driving, keep-
ing your distance and early release of the
accelerator. The vehicle can coast with-
out use of the brakes.
- the bar empties: frequent braking
An economical driving style involves driving at a moderate engine speed.
To achieve a higher value in the categories
Accel. Accel. andConstant
Constant,
R observe the gearshift recommendation
R drive the vehicle in drive program E
On long journeys at a constant speed, e.g. on the motorway, only the bar for Constant
Constantwill
change.
The ECO display summarises the driving char-
acteristics from the start of the journey to its completion. Therefore, there are dynamic
changes in the bars at the start of a journey.
During a prolonged driving time, these
changes are smaller. For more dynamic
changes, perform a manual reset.

185Driving and parking Z

When the HOLD function is activated, the
transmission is shifted automatically to posi- tion Pif:
R the driver's seat belt is not fastened and the
driver's door is open
R the engine is switched off, unless it is auto-
matically switched off by the ECO start/
stop function
The electric parking brake secures the vehicle
automatically if the HOLD function is activa-
ted, the vehicle is stationary and:
R a system fault occurs
R the power supply is insufficient
If a malfunction in the electric parking brake
occurs, then the transmission may also be
shifted into position Pautomatically. MAGIC BODY CONTROL
General notes MAGIC BODY CONTROL consists of Active
Body Control (ABC), ROAD SURFACE SCAN,
the CURVE cornering function as well as auto-
matic vehicle stabilisation in the event of a
crosswind.
Your vehicle automatically adjusts its ride
height to reduce fuel consumption. The sus-
pension mode is adjusted according to your
selection (SPORT, COMFORT or CURVE), the
road surface conditions and the vehicle load. A multifunction camera detects bumps in the
road surface before the vehicle drives over
them. This reduces chassis movements.
Important safety notes G
WARNING
People's limbs may become trapped if they
are located underneath the vehicle or
between the vehicle body and the tyres when the vehicle is lowering. There is a danger of
injury. When lowering the vehicle, make sure no one
is underneath the vehicle or in the immediate
vicinity of the wheel arches.
Crosswind Assist The crosswind stabilisation operates by
changing wheel loads through distortion of
the ABC spring struts. It reduces impairments
in handling when driving in a straight line andassists during countersteering.
Crosswind Assist is active in the speed range
between 80 km/h and 210 km/h when driv-
ing straight ahead or cornering gently.
Active Body Control ABC Vehicle level
All vehicles except AMG vehicles:
depend-
ing on the vehicle level that has been set, the vehicle automatically adjusts its height
dependent on the current speed. The vehicle
is lowered by up to 15 mm as the speed
increases. As the speed is reduced, the vehi- cle is raised to the set vehicle height.
In the event of poor road surface conditions,
the vehicle automatically raises by up to
10 mm and harder damping is selected.
AMG vehicles: depending on the vehicle
level that has been selected, the vehicle auto-
matically adjusts its height dependent on the current speed. The vehicle is lowered by up to
10 mm below the normal level as the speed
increases. As the speed is reduced, the vehi-
cle is raised to the set vehicle height.
Select the "Normal" setting for normal road
conditions and "Raised" for driving with snow chains or on particularly poor road condi-
tions.
Your selection remains stored even if you
remove the key from the ignition lock.
The "Raised level" setting is cancelled if you:
R are driving faster than approximately
120 km/h
R drive for approximately three minutes at a
speed above 80 km/h Driving systems
207Driving and parking Z

are significantly reduced when driving over
bumps.
The system is deactivated when you select
the raised vehicle level, sports mode or the
dynamic cornering function.
The system may be impaired or may not func-
tion if:
R the road surface is insufficiently lit
R there is poor visibility, e.g. snow, rain, fog or
spray
R there is glare, e.g. from the sun or from
oncoming traffic
R the windscreen is dirty, misted up or cov-
ered, for instance by a sticker, in the vicinity
of the camera
R the road surface has no texture or is reflec-
tive, e.g. in the case of newly laid asphalt,
concrete slabs or puddles
R the distance to the vehicle in front is too
short
R sections of the route have a very small
radius of curvature
R you accelerate hard or brake sharply AIRMATIC
General notes AIRMATIC is an air suspension system with
variable damping for improved driving com-
fort. All-round level control ensures the best
possible suspension and constant ground
clearance, even with a laden vehicle. When
you drive fast, the vehicle is lowered auto-
matically to improve driving safety and to
reduce fuel consumption. There is also the
option to manually adjust the vehicle level.
AIRMATIC consists of level setting, level con-
trol and the Adaptive Damping System ADS
PLUS. Important safety notes G
