Lane Keeping Assist General notes
Lane Keeping Assist monitor st he area in front of
your vehicle by means of multifunction cam-
era C which is attached behind the top of the
windshield. Lane Keeping Assist detect sl ane
markings on the road and can warn you before
you leave your lane unintentionally.
This function is available in the range between
40 mph and 120 mph (60 km/h and 200 km/h).
Aw arning may be given if af ront wheel passes
over al ane marking. It will warn you by means of
intermittent vibration in the steering wheel for
up to 1.5 seconds.
Important safety notes
G WARNING
Lane Keeping Assist cannot always clearly
detect lane markings.
In such cases, Lane Keeping Assist can: R
give an unnecessary warning R
not give aw arning
There is ar isk of an accident.
Always pay particular attention to the traffic
situation and keep within the lane, especially
if Lane Keeping Assist alerts you. G WARNING
The Lane Keeping Assist warning does not
return the vehicle to the original lane. There is
ar isk of an accident.
You should always steer, brake or accelerate
yourself, in particular if warned by Lane Keep-
ing Assist.
If you fail to adapt your driving style, Lane Keep-
ing Assist can neither reduce the risk of an acci-
dent nor override the laws of physics. Lane
Keeping Assist cannot take into account the
road, traffic and weather conditions. Lane Keep-
ing Assist is merely an aid. You are responsible
for the distance to the vehicle in front ,f or vehi-
cle speed, for braking in good time and for stay-
ing in your lane.
The Lane Keeping Assist does not keep the vehi-
cle in the lane.
The system may be impaired or may not function
if: R
there is poor visibility, e.g. due to insufficient
illumination of the road, or due to snow, rain,
fog or spray R
there is glare, e.g. from oncomin gt raffic, the
sun or reflection from other vehicles (e.g. if
the road surface is wet) R
the windshield is dirty, fogged up, damaged or
covered, for instanc ebyas ticker, in the vicin-
ity of the camera R
there are no or several unclear lane markings
for one lane, e.g. roadworks R
the lane markings are worn away ,d ark or cov-
ered up, e.g. by dirt or snow R
the distance to the vehicle in front is too short
and thus the lane markings cannot be detec-
ted R
the lane markings change quickly, e.g. lanes
branch off, cross one another or merge R
the road is narrow and winding R
there are highly variable shade condition so n

to the vehicle body or to chassis components.
This could cause damage to the vehicle or the
tires. There is ar isk of an accident.
To avoid hazardous situations: R
never mount snow chains on the rear
wheels R
only mount snow chains in pairs on the
fron tw heels.
! 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 ,ora re of ac orresponding
standard of quality. For more information,
please contact aq ualified specialist workshop.
If you inten dtom ount snow chains, please bear
the following points in mind: R
Sno wc hains may not be mounted on all
wheel/tire combinations. Permissible wheel-
tire combinations ( Y
page 312).R
Only use snow chains when driving on roads
completely covered by snow. Remove the
snow chains as soon as possible when you
come to ar oad that is not snow-covered.R
Local regulations may restrict the use of snow
chains. Observe the appropriate regulations if
you wish to mount snow chains. R
Do not exceed the maximum permissible
speed of 30 mph (50 km/h). R
Never use Parking Pilot when snow chains are
installed ( Y

Important safety notes
G WARNING
Underinflated or overinflated tires pose the
following risks: R
the tires may burst, especially as the load
and vehicle speed increase. R
the tires may wear excessively and/or
unevenly, which may greatly impair tire
traction. R
the driving characteristics, as well as steer-
ing and braking, may be greatly impaired.
There is ar isk of an accident.
Follow recommended tire inflation pressures
and check the pressure of all the tires includ-
ing the spare wheel: R
monthly, at least R
if the load changes R
before beginnin gal ong journeyR
under differen to perating conditions, e.g.
off-road driving
If necessary, correct the tire pressure.
i The data on the Tire and Loading Informa-
tion placard and tire pressure table shown
here are examples. Tire pressure specifica-
tions are vehicle-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 Infor-290
Tir ep re ssure
Wheels and tires

If the tire pressures have been set to the lower
values for lighter load sa nd/or lowe rr oad
speeds, the pressures shoul dber eset to the
higher values: R
if you want to drive with an increased load
and/or R
if you want to drive at higher speeds
i The tire pressures for increased load sa nd/
or higher road speeds, shown in the tire pres-
sure table, may have an egative effect on driv-
ing comfort.
If the tire pressure is not set correctly, this can
lea dtoane xcessive build up of heat and as ud-
den loss of pressure.
For more information, contact aq ualifie ds pe-
cialist workshop.
Important notes on tire pressure
G WARNING
If the tire pressure drops repeatedly ,t he
wheel ,v alve or tire may be damaged. Tire
pressure that is too low may resul tina tire
blow-out. There is ar isk of an accident.R
Check the tire for foreign objects. R
Check whether the wheel is losing air or the
valve is leaking.
If you are unabl etor ectify the damage, con-
tact aq ualifie ds pecialist workshop.
G WARNING
If you fit unsuitable accessorie so nto tire
valves ,t he tire valves may be overloaded and
malfunction, which can cause tire pressure
loss. Due to their design, retrofitted tire pres-
sure monitors keep the tire valve open. This
can also resul tint ire pressure loss. There is a
risk of an accident.
Only screw the standard valve cap or other
valve caps approved by Mercedes-Benz for
you rv ehicle onto the tire valve.
Use as uitable pressure gauge to check the tire
pressure. The outer appearance of at ire does
not permit any reliable conclusion abou tt he tire
pressure. On vehicle se quipped with the elec-
tronic tire pressure monitor, the tire pressure
can be checked in the on-board computer. The tire temperature and pressure increase
when the vehicle is in motion. This is dependent
on the driving speed and the load.
Therefore, you shoul do nly correct tire pres-
sures when the tires are cold.
The tires are cold: R
if the vehicle has been parked with the tires
out of direct sunlight for at least three hours
and R
if the vehicle has been driven less than 1m ile
(1.6 km)
The tire temperature changes depending on the
outsid et emperature ,t he vehicle speed and the
tire load .Ift he tire temperature changes by
18 ‡( 10 †), the tire pressure changes by
approximately 10 kPa (0.1 bar/1.5 psi) .T ake
this into account when checking the pressure of
warm tires. Only correct the tire pressure if it is
too low for the current operating conditions. If
you check the tire pressure when the tires are
warm, the resulting valu ew il lbeh ighe rt han if
the tires were cold. This is normal. Do not
reduce the tire pressure to the valu es pecified
for cold tires. The tire pressure would otherwise
be too low.
Observe the recommended tire pressures for
cold tires: R
