You alone accept the responsibility if body
manufacturers or dealers make modifications that affect the final certification of the engine,
the vehicle or the equipment. This also
applies to the identification and documenta-
tion of modifications to the affected vehicle
components.
You are responsible for certification and con- firmation that:
R all the applicable standards and regulations
that are affected by the vehicle modifica-
tion are met
R the modified vehicle fulfills the vehicle
safety standards and emissions laws and
regulations
R the modifications or installation of acces-
sories does not affect the safety of the
vehicle
We are not responsible for the final certifica-
tion, product liability or warranty claims
which result from the modifications. This
applies to:
R the modified components, assemblies or
systems
R any resulting noncompliance with any of
the emissions laws and regulations or the
motor vehicle safety standards
R any consequences arising from the
changes that make the vehicle less safe or even render it defective
We do not assume responsibility as the final- stage manufacturer or for the consequential
product liability.
Notes on the radiator Even seemingly small changes to the vehicle,
such as attaching a radiator trim for winter
driving, is not permitted. Do not cover up the radiator. Do not use thermal mats, insect pro-
tection covers or anything similar.
Otherwise, the values of the diagnostic sys-
tem may be affected. Some of these values
are legally prescribed and must always be
correct. Information on the cargo compartment
floor !
The wooden or plastic cargo area floor fit-
ted at the factory is an integral component
of the vehicle structure. The vehicle body
could be damaged if you have the load area floor removed. This then affects the secur-ing of loads and the maximum loading
capacity of the lashing points is no longer
guaranteed.
Therefore, do not have the load area floor
removed. Genuine Mercedes-Benz parts
! Air bags and Emergency Tensioning Devi-
ces, 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 cockpit
R instrument cluster
R center console
Do not install accessories such as audio
systems in these areas. Do not carry out
repairs or welding. You could impair the
operating efficiency of the restraint sys-
tems.
Have aftermarket accessories installed at a
qualified specialist workshop. H
Environmental note
We supply reconditioned assemblies and
parts which are of the same quality as new
parts. The same New Vehicle Limited War-
ranty applies as for new parts.
The operating safety of the vehicle could be
jeopardized if you use parts, tires and wheels
as well as accessories relevant to safety
which have not been approved by Mercedes-
Benz. This could lead to malfunctions in Introduction
