ATTENTION ASSIST
General notes
ATTENTION ASSIST helps you during long,
monotonous journeys, such as on highways. It is
active in the 37 mph (60 km/h)to 125 mph
(200 km/h) range. If ATTENTION ASSIST
detects typical indicators of fatigue or increas-
ing lapses in concentration on the part of the
driver, it suggests taking a break.
Important safety notes
ATTENTION ASSIST is only an aid. It might not
always recognize fatigue or increasing inatten-
tiveness in time or fail to recognize them at all.
The system is not a substitute for a well-rested
and attentive driver.
The functionality of ATTENTION ASSIST is
restricted and warnings may be delayed or not
occur at all:
Rif the length of the journey is less than approx-
imately 30 minutes
Rif the road condition is poor, e.g. if the surface
is uneven or if there are potholes
Rif there is a strong side wind
Rif you have adopted a sporty driving style with
high cornering speeds or high rates of accel-
eration
Rif you are predominantly driving at a speed
below 37 mph (60 km/h) or above 124 mph
(200 km/h)
Rif you are driving with the DISTRONIC PLUS
Steering Assist activated
Rif the time has been set incorrectly
Rin active driving situations, such as when you
change lanes or change your speed The attention level evaluation is deleted and
restarts when the journey is continued, if:
Ryou switch off the engine
Ryou take off your seat belt and open the driv-
er's door, e.g. for a change of drivers or to
take a break
Displaying the attention level
In the assistance menu (Ypage 195) of the on-
board computer you can call up the current sta- tus information.
XSelect the Assistance display for ATTENTION
ASSIST using the on-board computer
(
Ypage 195).
The following information appears:
Rlength of the journey since the last break.
Rthe attention level determined by ATTENTION
ASSIST, displayed in a bar display in five levels
from high to low.
Rif ATTENTION ASSIST is unable to calculate
the attention level and cannot output a warn-
ing, the System Suspended
message
appears. The bar display then changes the
display, e.g. if you are driving at a speed below
37 mph (60 km/h) or above 124 mph
(200 km/h).
Activating ATTENTION ASSIST
XActivate ATTENTION ASSIST using the on-
board computer (Ypage 196).
The system determines the attention level of
the driver depending on the setting selected:
Standard
selected: the sensitivity with which
the system determines the attention level is set
to normal.
Sensitive
selected: the sensitivity is set
higher. The attention level detected by Attention
Assist is adapted accordingly and the driver is
warned earlier.
When ATTENTION ASSIST is deactivated, the
é symbol appears in the multifunction dis-
play in the assistance graphic display.

Important safety notes
GWARNING
Functions relevant to safety are restricted or
no longer availab leif:
Rthe engine isnot running.
Rthe brake system or the power steering is
malfunctioning.
Rthere isa malfunction inthe voltage supply
or the veh icle's electrical system.
If your veh icle is bein g towed, much more
force may benecessary to steer or brake.
There isa risk of an acc ident.
In such cases, use a tow bar. Before to wing,
make sure that the steering moves freely.
GWAR NING
When to wingor tow-starting another veh icle
and its weight isgreater than the permis sible
gross weight of your veh icle, the:
Rthe to wingeye could detach itself
Rthe veh icle/trailer co mbination could roll-
over.
There isa risk of an acc ident.
When to wingor tow-starting another veh icle,
its weight should not begreater than the per-
mis sible gross weight of your veh icle.
Details on the permis siblegross veh icleweight
of your veh iclecan befound on the veh icle iden-
tification plate (
Ypage 322).
!When Active Brake Assist, Distance Pilot
DI ST RONIC or the HOLD function isactivated,
the vehicle brakes automatically incertain
situations.
To avoid damage to the vehicle, deactivate
these systems inthe following or similar sit-
uations:
Rwhen towing the vehicle
Rin the car wash
!Only secure the tow rope or tow bar at the
towing eyes. Otherwise, the vehicle could be
damaged.
!Do not use the towing eye for recovery, th is
could damage the vehicle. If indoubt, recover
the vehicle with a crane.
!When towing, pull away slowly and
smoothly. Ifthe tractive power is too high, the
vehicles could be damaged.
!Do not tow with sling-type equipment. This
could damage the vehicle.
!When towing vehicles with KEYLESS-GO,
use the key instead of the Start /S top button.
Otherwise, the automat ictransmission may
shift to position Pwhen the driver's or front-
passenger door are opened, which could lead to damage to the transmission.
!The vehicle can betowed a maximum of
30 mile s (50km). The towing speed of 30 mph
(50 km/ h)must not be exceeded.
If the vehicle has to be towed more than
30 miles (50km), the entire vehicle must be
raised and transported.
Towing and tow-starting287
Breakdown assistance
Z
To avoid hazardous situations:
Rnever install snow chains to the front
wheels
Ralways install snow chains in pairs to the
rear wheels.
!On vehicles with AIRMATIC, you must drive
at raised vehicle level if snow chains have
been mounted. The vehicle may otherwise be
damaged.
!On some tire sizes there is not enough space
for snow chains. To avoid damage to the vehi-
cle or tires, observe the "Wheel and tire com-
binations" section under "Tires and wheels".
For safety reasons, Mercedes-Benz recom-
mends that you only use snow chains that have
been specially approved for your vehicle by
Mercedes-Benz, or are of a corresponding
standard of quality. For more information, con-
tact a qualified specialist workshop.
If you intend to mount snow chains, please bear
the following points in mind:
RSnow chains may not be mounted on all
wheel/tire combinations. Permissible wheel-
tire combinations (
Ypage 317).
ROnly use snow chains when driving on roads
completely covered by snow. Remove the
snow chains as soon as possible when you
come to a road that is not snow-covered.
RLocal regulations may restrict the use of snow
chains. Observe the appropriate regulations if
you wish to mount snow chains.
RDo not exceed the maximum permissible
speed of 31 mph (50 km/h).
iYou may wish to deactivate ESP®when pull-
ing away with snow chains installed:
RAll vehicles (except Mercedes‑AMG vehi-
cles) (Ypage 70)
RMercedes-AMG vehicles: (Ypage 71)
You can thereby allow the wheels to spin in a
controlled manner, achieving an increased
driving force (cutting action).

Tire pressure
Tire pressure specifications
Important safety notes
GWARNING
Underinflated or overinflated tires pose the
following risks:
Rthe tires may burst, especially as the load
and vehicle speed increase.
Rthe tires may wear excessively and/or
unevenly, which may greatly impair tire
traction.
Rthe driving characteristics, as well as steer-
ing and braking, may be greatly impaired.
There is a risk of an accident.
Follow recommended tire inflation pressures
and check the pressure of all the tires includ-
ing the spare wheel:
Rmonthly, at least
Rif the load changes
Rbefore beginning a long journey
Runder different operating conditions, e.g.
off-road driving
If necessary, correct the tire pressure.
The data on the Tire and Loading Information
placard and tire pressure table shown here are
examples. Tire pressure specifications are vehi-
cle-specific and may deviate from the data
shown here. The tire pressure specifications
that are valid for your vehicle can be found on
the Tire and Loading Information placard and
tire pressure table on the vehicle.
General notes
The recommended tire pressures for the tires
mounted at the factory can be found on the
labels described here.
