Automatic switching off of the charging
process The charging process is deactivated automati-
cally if:
R the high-voltage battery is fully charged
The charging process is interrupted automati-
cally if:
R a serious electrical insulation malfunction is
detected in the vehicle's high-voltage electri- cal system
R an electrical connection in the vehicle's high-
voltage electrical system is disconnected
High-voltage switch-off device !
The high-voltage system must only be
switched off at vehicle standstill by specially
trained service engineers. Otherwise the
high-voltage system may be damaged. Your vehicle is equipped with a high-voltage
switch-off device 0043which can be used to
switch off the vehicle's high-voltage electrical
system.
Mobile phone antenna !
It is not permitted to retrofit a mobile phone
antenna.
Trailer tow hitch !
Retrofitting a trailer tow hitch is not permis-
sible.
Warning Vehicles with an electric motor generate much
less driving noise than vehicles with internal
combustion engines. As a result, your vehicle
may not be heard by other road users until it is very close to them, or it may not be heard at all.
This is particularly the case if other road users
have not yet seen your vehicle but are instead
relying on hearing. Drive with particular care,
allowing for the possibility that other road users may behave unpredictably.
The vehicle is equipped with a sound generator.
The sound generator is activated so that other
road users can hear your vehicle better. The
sound generator is activated at speeds of under
20 mph (30 km/ h)and switches off automati-
cally at higher speeds. Declarations of conformity
USA: "The wireless devices of this vehicle com-
ply with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is
subject to the two following two conditions: 1)
These devices may not cause harmful interfer-
ence, and 2) These devices must accept any
interference received, including interference
that may cause undesired operation. Changes
or modifications not expressly approved by the
party responsible for compliance 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 fol-
lowing two conditions: (1) These devices may
not cause interference, and (2) These devices
must accept any interference, including inter-
ference that may cause undesired operation of
the device." 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 a diagnostics
connection in the vehicle, it may affect the
operation of vehicle systems. As a result, the operating safety of the vehicle could be affec-
ted. There is a risk of an accident.
Only connect equipment to a diagnostics con-
nection in the vehicle, which is approved for
your vehicle by Mercedes-Benz. 26

To switch the reading lamp on/off Interior lighting control
General notes In order to prevent the vehicle's battery from
discharging, the interior lighting functions are
automatically deactivated after some time
except when the SmartKey is in position 2in the
ignition lock.
The color and brightness for the ambient lighting
may be set via the multimedia system; see the
separate operating instructions.
Automatic interior lighting control X
To switch on: set the switch to center posi-
tion 0084.
X To switch off: set the switch to the 0033
position.
The interior lighting automatically switches on if you:
R unlock the vehicle
R open a door
R remove the SmartKey from the ignition lock
The interior light is activated for a short while
when the SmartKey is removed from the ignition
lock. This delayed switch-off can be adjusted via
the multimedia system; see the separate oper-
ating instructions. Replacing bulbs
Important safety notes
Xenon bulbs: G
DANGER
Xenon bulbs carry a high voltage. You can get an electric shock if you remove the cover of
the Xenon bulb and touch the electrical con-
tacts. There is a risk of fatal injury.
Never touch the parts or the electrical con-
tacts of the Xenon bulb. Always have work on
the Xenon bulbs carried out at a qualified spe-
cialist workshop.
If your vehicle is equipped with Xenon bulbs, you
can recognize this by the following: the cone of light from the Xenon bulbs moves from the top
to the bottom and back again when you start the
drive system. For this to be observed, the lights must be switched on before the drive system is
started.
Headlamps and lights are an important aspect of
vehicle safety. You must therefore make sure
that these function correctly at all times. Have
the headlamp setting checked regularly.
Other bulbs: G
WARNING
Bulbs, lamps and connectors can get very hot when operating. If you change a bulb, you
could burn yourself on these components.
There is a risk of injury.
Allow these components to cool down before changing a bulb.
Do not use a bulb if it has been dropped or if its glass tube has been scratched.
The bulb may explode if
R you touch it
R it is hot
R you drop it
R you scratch it
Use bulbs only in closed lamps that have been
designed for this purpose. Only install spare
bulbs of the same type and the specified volt-
age.
Marks on the glass tube reduce the service life
of the bulbs. Do not touch the glass tube with
your bare hands. If necessary, clean the glass 90
