The
TVtuner enables reception of digital chan‐
nels according tothefo llowing standards:
R DVB-T
R DVB-T2
In some countries, thest andards may not be
av ailable, or may not be available in all areas.
A CI+ module (Common In terface Module),
which is not included in the scope of deliver y,is
used todecrypt HD prog rammes according to
th e CI+ standard. In some countries, an addi‐
tional smart card is required, which is inse rted
into the CI+ module (see the manufacturer's
operating manual).
The TVtuner is in the boot recess. The CI+ mod‐
ule is inse rted into theTV tune r.

TEDama getothe CI+ module and
Smart Card The CI+ module is designed
for use in the
home. The CI+ module can overheat and be
damaged bycontinuous exposure tohigh
outside temp eratures. 0007
Make sure that the CI+ module is not
subject tohigh temp eratures forex ten‐

vethefo llowing information: Cleaning
Avoiding dama getothe decorative foil
R For cleaning, use plenty of water and a mild cleaning agent without
additives or abrasive substances, e.g. a car sha mpoo appr ovedfor
Mercedes-Benz.
R Remo vedirt immediately, where possible, whilst avoiding rubbing
to o hard. There is otherwise a risk of damaging the decorative foil
ir re parably.
R Ifth ere is dirt on thefinish or if the decorative foil is dull: use the
Pa int Cleaner recommended and appr ovedfo r Mercedes-Benz.
R Insect remains: soak with insect remo ver and rinse off the treated
areas af terw ards.
R Bird droppings: soak with water and rinse off af terw ards.
R Toprev ent waterst ains, dry a foil-wrapped vehicle with a soft,
absorbent clo thafte reve rycar wash. R
The service life and colouring of decorative foils are impaired by:
- sunlight
- temp erature, e.g. hot air blo wer
- weather conditions
- stone chippings and dirt
- chemical cleaning agents
- oily products
R Do not use polish on matt decorative foil. Po lishing will ha vethe ef fect of
shining thefo il-wrapped sur face.
R Do not treat matt or stru ctured deco rative foils with wax.Pe rm anent
st ains may occur. Sc
ratches, cor rosive deposits, areas af fected by
cor rosion and damage caused byincor rect care
cannot al ways be comple tely repaired. In such
cases, visit a qualified specialist workshop.
Yo u can obtain more information on care and
cleaning products from the manufacturer. In
the case of foil-wrapped sur faces, optical dif‐
fe re nces may occur between the sur faces that

WARNING Risk of accident due toinsuf‐
fi cient or excessive tyre pressure
Underinfla ted or overinfla ted tyres pose the
fo llowing risks:
R The tyres may bur st, especially as the
load and vehicle speed increase.
R The tyres may wearexc essively and/or
une venly, which may greatlyimpair tyre
traction.
R The driving characteristics, as well as
st eering and braking, may be greatly
impaired. 0007
Comply with there commended tyre
pressure and check the tyre pressure of
all tyres including the spare wheel regu‐
larly:
R at least once a month
R when the load changes R
before embarking on a lon ger journey
R if operating conditions change, e.g. off-
ro ad driving 0007
Adjust the tyre pressure as necessar y. Driving wi
thtyre pressu rethat is too high or too
low can:
R Sho rten the service life of the tyres.
R Cause increased tyre damage.
R Adversely af fect driving characteristics and
th us driving saf ety, e.g. due toaquaplaning. 000A
WARNING Risk of accident from repea‐
te d tyre pressure drop
If th e tyre pressure drops repeatedl y,the
wheel, valve or tyre may be damaged.

New tyre pressure sensors, e.g. in winter tyres,
are automatically taught-in during thefirs t jour‐

the tyre temp erature
appear in the multifunction display
(0013 page 453).
