Protecting the environment
General notes
H
Environmental note
The pollutant emission of your vehicle is
directly related to the vehicle's operation.
You can make a contribution to environmental protection by operating your vehicle in an
environmentally responsible manner. To do
this, observe the following recommendations
on operating conditions and your personal
driving style.
Operating conditions:
R Make sure that the tire pressure is correct.
R Do not carry any unnecessary weight with
you (e.g. a roof rack which is no longer
required).
R Observe the service intervals. A regularly
serviced vehicle will contribute to environ-
mental protection.
R Always have maintenance work carried out
at a qualified specialist workshop.
Personal driving style:
R Do not depress the accelerator pedal when
starting the engine.
R Do not warm up the engine while station-
ary.
R Drive carefully and maintain a sufficient dis-
tance to other vehicles.
R Avoid frequent, sudden acceleration and
braking.
R Shift gears in good time and use each gear
only up to 00C3of its maximum engine speed.
R Switch off the engine in stationary traffic,
e.g. use the ECO start/stop function.
R Drive in a fuel-saving manner. Pay attention
to the ECO display for a fuel-efficient driving
style. Environmental concerns and recom-
mendations
Wherever the Operator's Manual requires you to
dispose of materials, first try to recycle or re-use them. Observe the relevant environmental rules
and regulations when disposing of materials. In
this way you will help to protect the environ-
ment. Genuine Mercedes-Benz parts
H
Environmental note
Daimler AG also supplies reconditioned major
assemblies and parts which are of the same
quality as new parts. They are covered by the
same Limited Warranty entitlements as new
parts.
! Air bags and Emergency Tensioning Devi-
ces, as well as control units and sensors for
these restraint systems, may be installed in
the following areas of your vehicle:
R doors
R door pillars
R door sills
R seats
R cockpit
R instrument cluster
R center console
Do not install accessories such as audio sys-
tems in these areas. Do not carry out repairs or welding. You could impair the operating
efficiency of the restraint systems.
Have aftermarket accessories installed at a
qualified specialist workshop.
You could jeopardize the operating safety of
your vehicle if you use parts, tires and wheels as well as accessories relevant to safety which
have not been approved by Mercedes-Benz. This could lead to malfunctions in safety-relevant
systems, e.g. the brake system. Use only genu-
ine Mercedes-Benz parts or parts of equal qual-
ity. Only use tires, wheels and accessories that
have been specifically approved for your vehi-
cle.
Genuine Mercedes-Benz parts are subject to
strict quality control. Every part has been spe-
cifically developed, manufactured or selected
for and adapted to Mercedes-Benz vehicles.
Therefore, only genuine Mercedes-Benz parts
should be used. 24
