Vehicles with ADS PLUS (Adaptive
Damping System PLUS) Important safety notes
G
WARNING
The weaker damping forces of the vehicle to
be transported can cause the vehicle/trailer
combination to swing.
As a result, when transporting vehicles with
Adaptive Damping System PLUS, the vehicle/ trailer combination may start to skid. Conse-
quently, you could lose control of the vehicle.
There is a risk of accident and injury.
When transporting, make sure that:
R the vehicle is has been loaded onto the
transporter correctly
R the vehicle is secured at all four wheels with
suitable tensioning straps
R you do not exceed the maximum permissi-
ble speed of 35 mph (60 km/h)

doing so will damage the transmission. 348
Towing and tow-startingBreakdown assistance

To avoid hazardous situations:
R never install snow chains to the front
wheels
R always install snow chains in pairs to the
rear wheels.
! Check the snow chains for damage before
mounting them. Damaged or worn snow
chains may snap and damage the following
components:
R wheel
R wheel housing
R wheel suspension
For this reason, you must use only snow
chains that are free of defects. Observe the
manufacturer's mounting instructions.
! You must drive at raised vehicle level (height
1) if snow chains have been installed. The
vehicle may otherwise be damaged.
! Vehicles with ADS (Adaptive Damping
System): do not use the sport mode when
driving with snow chains mounted. The vehi-
cle may otherwise be damaged.
For safety reasons, Mercedes-Benz recom-
mends that you only use snow chains that have been specially approved for your vehicle by
Mercedes-Benz, or are of a corresponding
standard of quality. For more information,
please contact a qualified specialist workshop.
Install the snow chains on all driven wheels for
maximum tractive power and driving stability. If
you own snow chains for two driven wheels only, install the snow chains to the wheels on the rear
axle. The vehicle then remains more stable
under braking.
If you intend to mount snow chains, please bear
the following points in mind:
R Snow chains may not be mounted on all
wheel/tire combinations. Permissible
wheel/tire combinations (Y page 376).
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 a road 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 When snow chains are installed, never use
Active Parking Assist (Y page 191) or the
Parking Package with rear view camera.
You may wish to deactivate ESP ®
(Y page 71)
when pulling away with snow chains mounted.
You can thereby allow the wheels to spin in a
controlled manner, achieving an increased driv-
ing force (cutting action).

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 a risk 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 beginning a long journey
R under different operating conditions, e.g.
off-road driving
If necessary, correct the tire pressure.
Details on tire pressure can be found at the fol-
lowing positions in the vehicle:

Flexible Fuel vehicles can be refueled with the
following fuel types:
R premium-grade unleaded gasoline
R E85 fuel
R a mixture of E85 fuel and premium-grade
unleaded gasoline
i Flexible Fuel vehicles can be recognized by
the Ethanol up to E85 sticker on the inside of
the fuel filler flap. Fuel consumption
The energy content of E85 fuel is less than that of the same amount of premium-grade gasoline.The amount of fuel consumed when operating
the vehicle with E85 fuel is therefore higher than
with premium-grade gasoline.
MaintenanceInform your authorized Mercedes-Benz Center
that you are operating or have operated the
vehicle with E85 fuel.
Low outside temperatures If the outside temperature is below 32 ‡(0 †),
the starting procedure can take noticeably lon-
ger when operating with E85 fuel.
E85 fuel is not suitable for use at outside tem-
peratures under -4 ‡ (-20 †). DEF
Important safety notes Comply with the important safety notes for ser-
vice products when handling DEF (Y page 383).
DEF is a water-soluble fluid for the exhaust gas
aftertreatment of diesel engines. It is:
R not poisonous
R colorless and odorless
R not flammable
When you open the DEF container, small
amounts of ammonia vapor may be released.
Ammonia vapors have a pungent odor and are
particularly irritating to the skin, to mucous
membranes and to the eyes. You may experi-
ence a burning sensation in your eyes, nose and throat. Coughing and watering of the eyes are
possible.
Do not inhale ammonia vapors. Fill the DEF tank
only in well-ventilated areas.
Low outside temperatures DEF freezes at a temperature of approximately
12
‡(-11 †). The vehicle is delivered from the
factory equipped with a DEF preheating system. Winter operation can thus be guaranteed even
at temperatures below 12 ‡ (-11 †). 386
