Protection of the environment
General notes
HEnvironmental note
Daimler's declared policy is one of com-
prehensive environmental protection.
The objectives are for the natural resour-
ces that form the basis of our existence on
this planet to be used sparingly and in a
manner that takes the requirements of both
nature and humanity into account.
You too can help to protect the environment
by operating your vehicle in an environ-
mentally responsible manner.
Fuel consumption and the rate of engine,
transmission, brake and tire wear are
affected by these factors:
Roperating conditions of your vehicle
Ryour personal driving style
You can influence both factors. You should
bear the following in mind:
Operating conditions:
Ravoid short trips as these increase fuel
consumption.
Ralways make sure that the tire pressures
are correct.
Rdo not carry any unnecessary weight.
Ra regularly serviced vehicle will con-
tribute to environmental protection. You
should therefore adhere to the service
intervals.
RAlways have service work carried out at a
qualified specialist workshop.
Personal driving style:
Rdo not depress the accelerator pedal
when starting the engine.
Rdo not warm up the engine when the vehi-
cle is stationary.
Rdrive carefully and maintain a safe dis- tance from the vehicle in front.
Ravoid frequent, sudden acceleration and
braking.
Rchange gear in good time and use each
gear only up to 00C3of its maximum engine
speed.
Rswitch off the engine in stationary traf-
fic.
Rkeep an eye on the vehicle's fuel con-
sumption.
Environmental concerns and recom-
mendations
Wherever the operating instructions require you to dispose of materials, first try to
regenerate or re-use them. Observe the rel-
evant environmental rules and regulations
when disposing of materials. In this way you
will help to protect the environment.
Genuine smart parts
HEnvironmental note
Daimler AG also supplies reconditioned
major assemblies and parts which are of the
same quality as new parts. They are covered
by the same Limited Warranty entitlements
as new 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:
Rdoors
Rdoor pillars
Rdoor sills
Rseats
Rcockpit
Rinstrument cluster
Rcenter 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.
You could jeopardize the operating safety of
your vehicle if you use parts, tires and wheels

Features
Cup holder
Important safety notes
GWARNING
The cup holder cannot hold a container
secure whilst traveling. If you use a cup
holder whilst traveling, the container may
be flung around and liquid may be spilled.
The vehicle occupants may come into con-
tact with the liquid and if it is hot, they
may be scalded. You may be distracted from
the traffic conditions and you could lose
control of the vehicle. There is a risk of an
accident and injury.
Only use the cup holder when the vehicle is stationary. Only use the cup holder for con-
tainers of the right size. Always close the
container, particularly if the liquid is
hot.
GWARNING
If you transport objects in the vehicle
interior and these are not adequately
secured, they could slip or be flung around
and thereby strike vehicle occupants. In
addition, cup holders, open stowage spaces and mobile phone brackets may not always
be able to hold the objects placed in them
in the event of an accident. There is a risk
of injury, particularly in the event of sharp
braking or sudden changes of direction.
RAlways stow objects in such a way that
they cannot be tossed about in these or
similar situations.
RAlways make sure that objects do not pro-
trude out of the stowage spaces, luggage
nets or stowage nets.
REnsure that closable stowage spaces are
shut before beginning your journey.
RAlways stow and secure heavy, hard, poin-
ted, sharp-edged, fragile or large
objects in the cargo compartment.
!Only use the cup holders for containers of
the right size and which have lids. The
drinks could otherwise spill.
Observe the loading guidelines (
Ypage 142).
