Vehicle components which receive
and/or transmit radio waves USA: "The wireless devices of this vehicle
comply with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Oper-
ation is subject to the following two condi-
tions: 1) These devices may not cause harm-
ful interference, and 2) These devices must
accept any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired oper-
ation. Changes or modifications not expressly
approved by the party responsible for com-
pliance could void the user’s authority to
operate the equipment."
Canada: "The wireless devices of this vehicle
comply with Industry Canada license-exempt
RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the
following two conditions: (1) These devices
may not cause interference, and (2) These

Diagnostics connection
The diagnostics connection is only intended
for the connection of diagnostic equipment at
a qualified specialist workshop. G WARNING
If you connect equipment to the diagnostics
connection in the vehicle, it may affect the
operation of the vehicle systems. As a result,
the operating safety of the vehicle could be
affected. There is a risk of an accident.
Do not connect any equipment to a diagnos-
tics connection in the vehicle.
G WARNING
Objects in the driver's footwell can restrict the
pedal travel or obstruct a depressed pedal.
The operating and road safety of the vehicle is
jeopardized. There is a risk of an accident.
Make sure that all objects in the vehicle are
stowed correctly, and that they cannot enter
the driver's footwell. Install the floormats
securely and as specified in order to ensure
sufficient clearance for the pedals. Do not use
loose floormats and do not place floormats on
top of one another.
! If the engine is switched off and equip-
ment on the diagnostics connection is
used, the starter battery may discharge.
Connecting equipment to the diagnostics
connection can lead to emissions monitoring
information being reset, for example. This
may lead to the vehicle failing to meet the
requirements of the next emissions test dur-
ing the main inspection.

qualified specialist workshop. It has the nec-
essary specialist knowledge, tools and quali-
fications to correctly carry out the work

Maintenance and care Z

Comp ly wit h safety precautions and take pro-
tective measures when han dlin g batteries.

For safety reasons, Mercedes-Benz recom-
men ds that you only use batteries which have
been tested and approved for your vehicle by

increased impact protection to prevent veh i-
cle occupants from suffering acid burns
should the battery be damaged in the event of
an acc iden t.
In order for the battery to achieve the max i-
mum poss ible service life, it must always be
suff icie nt ly charge d.

disc harge over time if you do not use the
veh icle . In th is case, have the battery discon-
nected at a qualif ied specialist workshop. You
can also charge the battery with a charger
recommended by Mercedes-Benz. Contact a qualif ied spec ialist workshop for further infor-
mation.

more frequently if you use the vehicle main ly
for short trips or if you leave it standing idle
for a lengthy per iod. Consult a qualif ied spe-
cialist workshop if you wish to leave your
vehicle parked for a long period of time.
On ly replace a battery with a battery that has
been recommended by Mercedes-Benz.

if you reconnect the battery, you will have to:R
set the clock via Aud io 20 or COMAND (see
separate operating instructions). R
reset the function for folding the exterior
mirrors in/out automatically, by folding the
mirrors out once ( Y
