Loading guidelines
G
WARNING
Secure and position the load as described in
the loading guidelines.
Otherwise, vehicle occupants could
be injured by the load being thrownaround in
the event of sharp braking, a sudden change
in direction or an accident.
You will find further informationinthe "Secur-
ing a load" section.
Even if you follow all the loading guidelines,
the load will increase the risk of injury in the
event of an accident.
G
WARNING
Keep the tailgate closed when the engine is
running. Otherwise, you could be poisoned by
exhaust fumes entering the vehicle.
The handling characteristics of a laden vehi-
cle are dependent on the distribution of the
load within the vehicle. For this reason, you
should observe the following notes when
transporting a load:
R
when transporting a load, never exceed the
maximum permissible gross vehicle weight
or the permissible axle loads for the vehicle
(including occupants).
R
position heavy loads as far forwards as pos-
sible and as low down in the load compart-
ment as possible.
R
the load must not protrude above the upper
edge of the seat backrests.
R
always place the load against the rear or
front seat backrests. Make sure that the
seat backrests are securely locked into
place.
R
hook in the safety net when loading.
R
the maximum load capacity of the stowage
well under the luggage compartmentfloor
is 25 kg.
R
always place the load behind unoccupied
seats if possible.
R
secure the load with sufficiently strong and
wear-resistantlashing material. Pad sharp
edges for protection.
i
Lashing material is available at any quali-
fied specialist workshop.
!
Do notposition the load on one part of the
folding luggage compartment floor only.
The maximum load capacity of the folding
luggage compartment floor is 100 kg.
Spread the weight evenly to avoid damag-
ing the luggage compartment floor. Place a
solid board under the load if necessary.
Please note that the load on the luggage
compartment floor will be increased when

Roof carrier
Important safety notes

An incorrectly secured roof carrier, ski rack or
load could become detached fromthe vehi-
cle. These objects might then be thrown
around, and could injure you or others or
cause an accident. Follow the roof carrier/ski
rack manufacturer's installation instructions
and special instructions for use.
The roof load raises the vehicle's centre of
gravity, thereby affecting vehicle handling.
You must always observe the maximum roof
load of 75 kg.Always adapt your driving style
to the prevailing road, traffic and weather
conditions and drive with particular care if the
roof is laden.
!
Mercedes-Benzrecommends that you
only use roof carriers that have been tested
and approved for Mercedes-Benzvehicles.
This helps to preventdamage to the vehi-
cle.
Positionthe load on the roof carrier in such
a way that the vehicle will not sustain dam-
age even when it is in motion.
Ensure that, depending on the vehicle's
equipment, you can raise the panorama
sliding sunroof fully and open the tailgate
fully when the roof carrier is fitted.

Important notes
G
WARNING
Observe the legal requirements of the country
in which you are currently driving regarding
operating mobile communications equipment
in a vehicle.
If it is permitted by law to operate communi-
cations equipment while the vehicle is in
motion, you must only do so if the traffic sit-
uation permits. Otherwise, you could be dis-
tracted from the traffic conditions, cause an
accident and injure yourself and others.
258
Features
Stowing and features
Two-way radios and fax equipment used with-
out low-reflection exterior aerials can inter-
fere with the vehicle's electronics and thereby
jeopardise the operating safety of the vehicle
and your safety. Therefore, you must only use
this equipment if it is correctly connected to
a separate reflection-free exterior aerial.
G
WARNING
Excessive levels of electromagnetic radiation
may cause damage to your health and the
health of others. Using an exterior aerial takes
into account current scientific discussions
relating to the possible health risk posed by
electromagnetic fields.
Mercedes-Benz recommends the use of an
approved exterior aerial. This ensures:
R
optimal mobile phone reception quality in
the vehicle
R
mutual influences between the vehicle
electronics and mobile phones are mini-
mised
An exterior aerial has the following advan-
tages:
R
it conducts the electromagnetic fields gen-
erated by a wireless device to the exterior.
R
the field strength in the vehicle interior is
lower than in a vehicle that does not have
an exterior aerial.
