If somebody becomes trapped:
Rrelease the switch immediately, or
Rduring automatic operation, push the
switch briefly in any direction
The opening/closing process is briefly stop-
ped. The roller sunblind then returns to its ini-
tial position.
The roller sunblind shields the vehicle interior
from sunlight. The two roller sunblinds can
only be opened and closed together when the
panorama roof with power tilt/sliding panel is closed.
Roller sunblind reversing feature
The roller sunblind is equipped with an auto-
matic reversing feature. If a solid object
blocks or restricts the roller sunblind during
the closing process, the roller sunblind opensagain automatically. The automatic reversing
feature is only an aid and is not a substitute
for your attentiveness to the roller sunblind
while it is closing.
GWARNING
The reversing function does not react in par-
ticular to soft, light and thin objects, e.g. small
fingers. This means that the reversing feature
cannot prevent someone being trapped in
these situations. There is a risk of injury.
When closing the roller sunblind, make sure
that no body parts are in the sweep area.
If somebody becomes trapped:
Rrelease the switch immediately, or
Rpress the switch in any direction during the
automatic closing process
The closing process is briefly stopped. The
roller sunblind then returns to its initial posi-
tion.

Problems with the sliding sunroof
Your vehicle may be equipped with a sliding sunroof or a panorama roof with power tilt/sliding
panel. In this section, the term "sliding sunroof" refers to both types of sliding sunroof.
GWARNING
If you close the sliding sunroof again immediately after it has been blocked or reset, the sliding
sunroof closes with increased or maximum force. The reversing feature is then not active. Parts
of the body could be trapped in the closing area in the process. This poses an increased risk of
injury or even fatal injury.
Make sure that no parts of the body are in the closing area.
If somebody becomes trapped:
Rrelease the switch immediately, or
Rpress the switch in any direction during the automatic closing process
The closing process is stopped.
!If the sliding sunroof still cannot be opened or closed as a result of a malfunction, contact
a qualified specialist workshop.
ProblemPossible causes/consequences and MSolutions
The sliding sunroof can-
not be closed and you
cannot see the cause.If the sliding sunroof is obstructed during closing and reopens
again slightly:
XImmediately after the sliding sunroof blocks, pull the 3
switch in the overhead control panel down to the point of resist-
ance and hold it until the sliding sunroof is closed.
The sliding sunroof is closed with increased force.
If the sliding sunroof is obstructed again during closing and then
reopens slightly:
XImmediately after the sliding sunroof blocks, pull the 3
switch in the overhead control panel down to the point of resist-
ance and hold it until the sliding sunroof is closed.
The sliding sunroof is closed without the anti-entrapment fea-
ture.

The EASY-PACK rear sill protector is attached
to the underside of the EASY-PACK folding
cargo compartment floor by means of mag-
nets. It is designed to prevent clothing
becoming stained and the paintwork being
scratched when loading.

Roof carrier
Important safety notes
GWARNING
When you load the roof, the center of gravity
of the vehicle rises and the driving character-
istics change. If you exceed the maximum roof
load, the driving characteristics, as well as
steering and braking, will be greatly impaired.
There is a risk of an accident.
Never exceed the maximum roof load and
adjust your driving style.
!Mercedes-Benz recommends that you
only use roof carriers that have been tested
and approved for Mercedes-Benz vehicles.
This helps to prevent damage to the vehi-
cle. Position the load on the roof carrier in such
a way that the vehicle will not sustain dam-
age even when it is in motion.
Ensure that when the roof carrier is instal-
led:
Ryou can raise the sliding sunroof or the
panorama roof with power tilt/sliding
panel fully (depending on the vehicle's
equipment)
Ryou can open the tailgate or trunk lid fully
Rthe roof carrier does not come into con-
tact with the antenna
!To avoid damaging or scratching the cov-
ers, do not use metallic or hard objects to
open them.
You will find information on the maximum roof
load in the "Technical data" section
(
Ypage 344).
An incorrectly secured roof carrier or roof
load may become detached from the vehicle.
You must therefore ensure that you observe
the roof carrier manufacturer's installation
instructions.

iWhen installing an antenna on the front
roof area of vehicles with a sliding sunroof,
observe the sweeping range of the roof.
On vehicles with panorama roof with power
tilt/sliding panel, installing an antenna to
the front or rear roof area is not permitted.
On the rear fenders, it is recommended to
position the antenna on the side of the
vehicle closest to the center of the road.
Use the Technical Specification ISO/TS
21609 when retrofitting RF transmitters
(Road Vehicles - EMC guidelines for installa-
tion of aftermarket radio frequency transmit-
ting equipment). Observe the legal require-
ments for retrofittings. If your vehicle has installations for two-way
radio equipment, use the power supply or
antenna connections intended for use with
the basic wiring. Be sure to observe the man-
ufacturer's additional instructions when
installing.
Deviations with respect to wavebands, maxi-
mum transmission outputs or antenna posi-
tions must be approved by Mercedes-Benz.
The maximum transmission output (PEAK) at
the base of the antenna must not exceed the
following values:
WavebandMaximum
transmission output
Short wave
3 - 54 MHz100 W

The following can be used in the vehicle with-
out restrictions:

sion output of up to 100 mW

cies in the range 380-410 MHz and a max-
imum transmission output of 2 W (Tetra)
