Important safety notes
GWAR NING
When you load the roof, the center of gravity
of the veh iclerises and the driving character-
istics change. Ifyou exceed the maximum roof
load, the driving characteristics, as wellas
steering and braking, will begreatly impaired.
There isa risk of an acc ident.
Never exceed the maximum roof load and
adjust your driving style.
You willfind information on the maximum roof
load inthe "Technical data" section
(
Ypage 433).
!Mercedes-Benz recommends that you only
use roof carriers that have been tested and
approved for Mercedes-Benz veh icles. This
helps to avoid damage to the veh icle.
Position the load on the roof carrier insuch a
way that the veh icle willnot sustain damage
even when it is inmotion.
Ensure that, dependin g on the vehicle's
equipm ent, you can raise the panorama roof
wit h power tilt/ sliding panel fully and open
the trunk lidfully when the roof carrier is
installed.
!To avoid damaging or scratching the covers,
do not use metallic or hard objects to open
them.
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.

tilt/sliding panel: the pan
orama roof with
power tilt/sliding panel cannot be opened if a
