Loading guidelines
GWARNING
Combustion engines emit poisonous exhaust
gases such as carbon monoxide. Exhaust
gases can enter the vehicle interior if the
trunk lid is open when the engine is running,
especially if the vehicle is in motion. There is a
risk of poisoning.
Always switch off the engine before opening
the trunk lid. Never drive with the trunk lid
open.
GWARNING
If objects, luggage or loads are not secured or
not secured sufficiently, they could slip, tip
over or be flung around and thereby hit vehicle
occupants. There is a risk of injury, particu-
larly in the event of sudden braking or a sud-
den change in direction.
Always store objects so that they cannot be
flung around. Secure objects, luggage or
loads against slipping or tipping before the
journey.
GWARNING
The exhaust tail pipe and tail pipe trim can
become very hot. If you come into contact
with these parts of the vehicle, you could burn
yourself. There is a risk of injury.
Always be particularly careful around the
exhaust tail pipe and the tail pipe trim. Allow
these components to cool down before touch-
ing them.
The handling characteristics of a laden vehicle
are dependent on the distribution of the load
within the vehicle. For this reason, you should
observe the following notes when transporting a
load:
RNever exceed the maximum permissible
gross vehicle mass or the gross axle weight
rating for the vehicle (including occupants).
The values are specified on the vehicle iden- tification plate on the B-pillar of the driver's
door.
RThe trunk is the preferred place to carry
objects.
RPosition heavy loads as far forwards as pos-
sible and as low down in the trunk as possible.
RThe load must not protrude above the upper
edge of the seat backrests.
RAlways place the load behind unoccupied
seats if possible.
RSecure the load with sufficiently strong and
wear-resistant tie-downs. Pad sharp edges for
protection.
Stowage spaces
Important safety notes
GWARNING
If objects in the passenger compartment are
stowed incorrectly, they can slide or be
thrown around and hit vehicle occupants. In
addition, cupholders, open stowage spaces
and mobile phone brackets cannot always
retain all objects they contain. There is a risk of injury, particularly in the event of sudden
braking or a sudden change in direction.
RAlways stow objects so that they cannot be
thrown around in such situations.
RAlways make sure that objects do not pro-
trude from stowage spaces, parcel nets or
stowage nets.
RClose the lockable stowage spaces before
starting a journey.
RAlways stow and secure heavy, hard, poin-
ted, sharp-edged, fragile or bulky objects in
the trunk.
Observe the loading guidelines (
Ypage 281).

and the safety notes regarding stowage spaces
(
Ypage 281).
Skibag
Important safety notes
GWARNING
The skibag in conjunction with the lashing
straps cannot restrain any objects other than
skis.
Vehicle occupants could be struck in the
event of sudden braking or an accident, for
instance, if you:
Rtransport other heavy or sharp-edged
objects in the skibag
Rdo not secure the skibag with the lashing
straps
There is a risk of accident and injury.
Store only skis in the skibag. Always secure
the skibag with the lashing straps so that it
cannot move around.
Observe the following points when using the
skibag:
Rdo not transport more than three pairs of skis
in the skibag.
Rwhen carefully sliding the skis into or remov-
ing them from the skibag, mind the sharp
edges and corners of the skis.
Rstow the skis as described in the following:
-when sliding the skis in, position the run-
ning surfaces of the respective pair of skis
together.
-position one pair of skis at the bottom with the tips of the skis pointing to the outside.
-position the two additional pairs of skis on
the left and right-hand sides above the
lower pair of skis. The tips of the skis being
offset by 90° to the tips of the skis below.

!Sharp-edged, pointed or fragile objects can
damage the EASY-PACK trunk box and may be
thrown out. There is a risk of injury.
Do not transport sharp-edged, pointed or
fragile objects in the EASY-PACK trunk box.
Always store and secure these or similar
objects in the trunk outside the EASY-PACK
trunk box.
!If you exceed the maximum permitted load
of the EASY-PACK trunk box, objects may be
thrown out of the EASY-PACK trunk box and
strike vehicle occupants. There is a risk of
injury, particularly in the event of sudden
braking or a sudden change indirection.
Alwa ys observe the maximum permitted load

and secure heavy objects in the trunk outside
the EASY-PACK trunk box.
The maximum permitted load of the EASY-PACK
trunk box is 22 lbs (10 kg). With a load of above
approximately 11 lbs (5 kg), the bottom of the
box moves downwards until it rests on the mat
of the trunk floor. Thus, overloading of the box is avoided.
Adjusting the height to any position
Example
XPull the box out by handle :in the direction
of the arrow as far as it will go.
XTo lower the load surface: push down with
your hand in the center of load surface ;in
the direction of the arrow until load sur-
face ;has reached the desired position.
XTo raise the load surface: press switch=.
Load surface ;of the box moves up auto-
matically.
XTo stow the box: push the box in by han-
dle :as far as it will go.
Removing and installing
Example
XTo install: insert retainer ;of box :into
slots =.
Example
XRaise box :and press hooks Ainto anchor-
age ?as far as they will go.
XTurn left-hand rotating catch Bcounter-
clockwise and right-hand rotating catch B
clockwise by 90°.
XTo remove: turn left-hand rotating catch B
clockwise and right-hand rotating catch B
counter-clockwise by 90°.
XMove box :downwards and pull it out from
anchorages ?.
Store the EASY-PACK trunk box on a flat surface
after removal, e.g. on a suitable shelf.
Securing loads using parcel net hooks
General notes
Observe the following notes on securing loads:
RSecure the load using the parcel net hooks
RDo not use elastic straps or nets to secure a
load, as these are only intended as an anti-slip
protection for light loads.
RDo not route tie-downs across sharp edges or
corners.
RPad sharp edges for protection.

Roof carrier
Important safety notes
GWARNING
When you load the roof, the center of gravity
of the vehicle rises and the driving character-
istics change. If you exceed the maximum roof
load, the driving characteristics, as well as
steering and braking, will be greatly impaired.
There is a risk of an accident.
Never exceed the maximum roof load and
adjust your driving style.
You will find information on the maximum roof
load in the "Technical data" section
(
Ypage 376).
!Mercedes-Benz recommends that you only
use roof carriers that have been tested and
approved for Mercedes-Benz vehicles. This
helps to avoid damage to the vehicle.
Position the load on the roof carrier in such a
way that the vehicle will not sustain damage
even when it is in motion.
Ensure that, depending on the vehicle's
equipment, you can raise the panorama roof
with power tilt/sliding panel fully and open
the trunk lid fully when the roof carrier is
installed.
