When driving at speeds below 19 mph(30 km/h), you will see parking symbol Das astatus indicator in the instrument cluster. Whena parking space has been detected, an arrowtowards the right or the left also appears. Bydefault, Active Parking Assist only displays park-ing spaces on the front-passenger side. Parkingspaces on the driver's side are displayed assoon as the turn signal on the driver's side isactivated. When parking on the driver's side,this must remain activated until you confirm theuse of Active Parking Assist by pressing the vbutton on the multifunction steeringwheel. The system automatically determineswhether the parking space is parallel or at right-angles to the direction of travel.
A parking space is displayed while you are driv-ing past it, and until you are approximately 50 ft(15 m) away from it.
Parking
GWARNING
If you leave the driver's seat when the vehicle
is only being braked by the Parking Package

the voltage supply
Rif the electrical system in the engine com-
partment, the battery or the fuses are tam-
pered with
Rif the battery is disconnected
Rif the vehicle is accelerated, e.g. by a vehi-
cle occupant
There is a risk of an accident.
Before leaving the vehicle, always secure it
against rolling away.

Permitted towing methods
Mercedes-Benz recommends transporting yourvehicle in the case of a breakdown, rather thantowing it away.
When towing away, use a towing rope or a tow-ing bar with both axles on the ground. Do not useany tow bar systems.
Transporting the vehicle
Vehicles with automatic transmission
!When the vehicle is loaded for transport, thefront and rear axles must be stationary and onthe same transportation vehicle. Positioningover the connection point of the transportvehicle is not permitted. The drive train mayotherwise be damaged.
All vehicles
!You may only secure the vehicle by thewheels, not by parts of the vehicle such asaxle or steering components. Otherwise, thevehicle could be damaged.
XTurn the SmartKey to position Hin the igni-tion lock (Ypage 123).
XShift the transmission to position \\.
As soon as the vehicle has been loaded:
XPrevent the vehicle from rolling away byapplying the electric parking brake.
XShift the transmission to position ].
XTurn the SmartKey to position Zin the igni-tion lock and remove it.
XSecure the vehicle.
The towing eye can be used to pull the vehicleonto a trailer or transporter for transporting pur-poses.
Notes on 4MATIC vehicles
!Vehicles with 4MATIC must not be towedwith either the front or the rear axle raised, asdoing so will damage the transmission.
Vehicles with 4MATIC may only either be towedaway with both axles on the ground or be loadedup and transported.
If the vehicle's transmission, front, or rear axle isdamaged, have the vehicle transported on atruck or trailer.
In the event of damage to the electrical sys-tem:
If the battery is defective, the automatic trans-mission will be locked in position ]. To shift theautomatic transmission to position \\, youmust provide power to the vehicle's on-boardelectrical system in the same way as when jump-starting (Ypage 282).
Have the vehicle transported on a transporter ortrailer.
Tow-starting (emergency engine
starting)
!Vehicles with automatic transmission mustnot be tow-started. You could otherwise dam-age the automatic transmission.
iYou can find information on "Jump-starting"under (Ypage 282).
Fuses
Important safety notes
GWARNING
If you manipulate or bridge a faulty fuse or if
you replace it with a fuse with a higher amper-
age, the electric cables could be overloaded.
This could result in a fire. There is a risk of an
accident and injury.
Always replace faulty fuses with the specified
new fuses having the correct amperage.
!Only use fuses that have been approved forMercedes-Benz vehicles and which have thecorrect fuse rating for the system concerned.Only use fuses marked with an "S". Other-

wise, components or systems could be dam-aged.
!Make sure that no moisture can enter thefuse box when the cover is open.
!When closing the cover, make sure that it islying correctly on the fuse box. Moisture seep-ing in or dirt could otherwise impair the oper-ation of the fuses.
The fuses in your vehicle serve to close downfaulty circuits. If a fuse blows, all the compo-nents on the circuit and their functions stopoperating.
Blown fuses must be replaced with fuses of thesame rating, which you can recognize by thecolor and value. The fuse ratings are listed in thefuse allocation chart.
The fuse allocation chart is in the fuse box in thefront-passenger footwell (Ypage 289).
If a newly inserted fuse also blows, have thecause traced and rectified at a qualified special-ist workshop, e.g. an authorized Mercedes-BenzCenter.
Before changing a fuse
XSecure the vehicle against rolling away(Ypage 142).
XSwitch off all electrical consumers.
XVehicles without KEYLESS-GO:remove theSmartKey from the ignition lock.
XVehicles with KEYLESS-GO start-functionor KEYLESS-GO:open the driver's door.The vehicle electronics are now in position Z. This corresponds to the SmartKey beingremoved from the ignition.
The fuses are located in various fuse boxes:
RFuse box in the engine compartment on theleft-hand side of the vehicle, when viewed inthe direction of travel
RFuse box in the front-passenger footwell
The fuse allocation chart is on the fuse box in thefront-passenger footwell (Ypage 289).

When the hood is open and the windshield
wipers are set in motion, you can be injured by
the wiper linkage. There is a risk of injury.
Always switch off the windshield wipers and
the ignition before opening the hood.
XOpen the hood.
XUse a dry cloth to remove any moisture fromthe fuse box.
XTo open:open clamps D.
XFold up cover Cin the direction of the arrowand remove it.
XTo close:check whether the seal is lying cor-rectly in cover C.
XInsert cover Cat the back into openings
