AMG vehicles)
Important safety notes G
WARNING
If you use start-off assist, individual wheels
may start to spin and the vehicle may skid. If
ESP ®
is deactivated, there is a greater danger
of skidding and having an accident. Make sure that no persons or obstacles are in the area
around the vehicle. Start-off assist enables optimum acceleration
from a standstill. For this, a suitably high-grip
road surface is required; the tyres and vehicle
must also be in good condition.
Do not activate start-off assist on public roads.
Observe the safety notes on driving safety sys-
tems (Y page 66).
Be sure to read the safety notes and information
on ESP ®
(Y page 69).

ation.
i Activate ESP ®
as soon as the acceleration
process has ended. ESP ®
will otherwise not
be able to stabilise the vehicle if the vehicle
starts to skid or a wheel starts to spin.

WARNING
Operating the integrated information systems and communications equipment in the vehicle
while driving will distract you from traffic con-
ditions. You could then lose control of the
vehicle. There is a risk of an accident.
Only operate these devices if road traffic con-
ditions permit. If you are unsure about the
surrounding conditions, pull over to a safe
location and make entries only while the vehi-
cle is stationary.
You must observe the legal requirements for the country in which you are currently driving whenoperating the navigation system.
General notes Correct functioning of the navigation system
depends, amongst other things, on GPS recep-
tion. In certain situations, GPS reception may be
impaired, there may be interference or there
may be no reception at all, e.g. in tunnels or
multi-storey car parks.

Important safety notes G
WARNING
Operating mobile communications equip-
ment while driving distracts you from paying
attention to traffic conditions. This could also cause you to lose control of the vehicle. There
is a risk of an accident.
Use this device only when the vehicle is sta-
tionary. You must observe the legal requirements for the
country in which you are currently driving when
operating mobile communications equipment in the vehicle.
If it is permitted by law to operate communica-
tions equipment while the vehicle is in motion,
you may only do so if the traffic situation per-
mits. You may otherwise be distracted from the
traffic conditions, cause an accident and injure
yourself and others.
Excessive levels of electromagnetic radiation
may cause damage to your health and to the
health of others. The use of an exterior aerial
takes into consideration the scientific discus-
sion surrounding the possible health risk posed
by electromagnetic fields.
Mercedes-Benz recommends the use of an
approved exterior aerial. This ensures:
R optimal mobile phone reception quality in the
vehicle
R that mutual interference between the vehicle
electronics and mobile phones is minimised
An exterior aerial has the following advantages:
R it conducts the electromagnetic fields gener-
ated by a wireless device to the exterior
R the field strength in the vehicle interior is
lower than in a vehicle that does not have an
exterior aerial
Information on fitting two-way radios and mobile phones (RF transmitters) (Y page 325).
General notes There are various mobile phone brackets that
may be fitted in your vehicle; in some cases,
these are country-specific.
More information on suitable mobile phones,
mobile phone brackets and on connecting Blue-
tooth ®
-capable mobile phones with the multi-
media system can be obtained:
R at your Mercedes-Benz Service Centre
R on the Internet at http://www.mercedes-

Resetting the ASSYST PLUS service
interval display !
If the ASSYST PLUS service interval display
has been inadvertently reset, this setting can
be corrected at a qualified specialist work-
shop.
Have service work carried out as described in the Service Booklet. This may otherwise lead
to increased wear and damage to the major
assemblies or the vehicle.
A qualified specialist workshop, e.g. a
Mercedes-Benz Service Centre, will reset the
ASSYST PLUS service interval display after the
service work has been carried out. You can also
obtain further information on maintenance
work, for example.
Special service requirements The prescribed service interval is based on nor-
mal operation of the vehicle. Service work will
need to be performed more often if the vehicle is
operated under arduous conditions or increased loads, for example:
R Regular city driving with frequent intermedi-
ate stops
R If the vehicle is primarily used to travel short
distances
R For frequent use in mountainous terrain or on
poor road surfaces
R If the engine is often left idling for long periods
R In particularly dusty conditions, or if air-recir-
culation mode is frequently used.
In these or similar operating conditions, have
the interior filter, engine air cleaner, engine oil
and oil filter, for example, changed more fre-
quently. The tyres must be checked more fre-
quently if the vehicle is operated under
increased loads. Further information can be
obtained at a qualified specialist workshop, e.g.
a Mercedes-Benz Service Centre.
Driving abroad An extensive Mercedes-Benz Service network is
also available in other countries. You can obtain further information from any Mercedes-Benz
Service Centre. ASSYST PLUS

characteristics)
General notes With MOExtended tyres (tyres with run-flat char-
acteristics), you can continue to drive your vehi- cle even if there is a total loss of pressure in one
or more tyres. The affected tyre must not show
any clearly visible damage.
You can recognise MOExtended tyres by the
"MOExtended" marking that appears on the tyre sidewall. You will find this marking next to the
tyre size designation, the load-bearing capacity
and the speed index.
MOExtended tyres may be used only in conjunc- tion with an activated tyre pressure loss warning
system or tyre pressure monitor.
If a pressure loss warning message appears in the multifunction display:
R observe the instructions in the display mes-
sages (Y page 239)
R check the tyre for damage
R if driving on, observe the following notes The driving distance possible in run-flat mode is
approximately 80 km when the vehicle is parti-
ally laden and approximately 30 km when the
vehicle is fully laden.
In addition to the vehicle load, the driving dis-
tance possible in run-flat mode depends on the:
R vehicle speed
R road condition
R outside temperature
The driving distance possible in run-flat mode
may be reduced by extreme driving conditions/ manoeuvres, or it can be increased through a
moderate style of driving.
The driving distance possible in run-flat mode is
counted from the moment the tyre pressure loss warning appears on the multifunction display.
You must not exceed a maximum speed of
80 km/h.
When replacing one or all tyres, observe the fol-
lowing specifications for your vehicle's tyres:
R size
R type and
R the "MOExtended" marking
If a tyre has gone flat and cannot be replaced
with an MOExtended tyre, a standard tyre may
be used as a temporary measure. Make sure
that you use the proper size and type (summer
or winter tyre).
Vehicles with MOExtended tyres are not equip-
ped with a TIREFIT kit at the factory. It is there-
fore recommended that you additionally equip
your vehicle with a TIREFIT kit if you fit tyres that do not feature run-flat characteristics, e.g. win-
ter tyres. A TIREFIT kit can be obtained from a
qualified specialist workshop.
Important safety notes G
WARNING
When driving in emergency mode, the driving characteristics deteriorate, e.g. when corner-
ing, accelerating quickly and when braking.
There is a risk of accident.
Do not exceed the stated maximum speed.
Avoid abrupt steering and driving manoeu-
vres, and driving over obstacles (kerbs, pot-
holes, off-road). This applies in particular to a laden vehicle. Flat tyre
