NNoottes on instes on installing twalling two-wao-way ry radiosadios

WARNINGARNING Risk of accident due to

improper work on two-way radios

If two-way radios are manipulated or retrot-

ted incorrectly, the electromagnetic radiation

from the two-way radios can interfere with the

vehicle electronics and jeopardize the operat-

ing safety of the vehicle.

You should have all work on electrical

and electronic components carried out

at a qualied specialist workshop.

WARNINGARNING Risk of accident due to

improper operation of two-way radios

If you use two-way radios in the vehicle

improperly, their electromagnetic radiation

can disrupt the vehicle's electronics. This is

the case in the following situations, in particu-

lar:

The two-way radio is not connected to an

exterior antenna.

The exterior antenna is installed incor-

rectly or is not a low-reection antenna.

This could jeopardize the operating safety of

the vehicle.

Have the low-reection exterior antenna

installed at a qualied specialist work-

shop.

When operating two-way radios in the

vehicle, always connect them to the low-

reection exterior antenna.

NOOTETE Invalidation of the operating permit

due to failure to comply with the instruc-

tions for installation and use

The operating permit may be invalidated if the

instructions for installation and use of two-way

radios are not observed.

Only use approved frequency bands.

Observe the maximum permissible out-

put power in these frequency bands.

Only use approved antenna positions.

Technical data

Front roof area

Rear roof area

Rear fenders

Trunk lid

On vehicles with a panoramic sliding sunroof,

installing an antenna to the front or rear roof area

is not permitted.

On the rear fenders, it is recommended that you

install the antenna on the side of the vehicle clos-

est to the center of the road.

Use Technical Specication ISO/TS 21609 (Road

Vehicles – "EMCs for installation of aermarket

radio frequency transmitting equipment") when

retrotting two-way radios. Comply with the legal

requirements for detachable parts.

If your vehicle has installing for two-way radio

equipment, use the power supply and antenna

connectors provided in the pre-installation.

Observe the manufacturer's supplements when

installing.

WARNINGARNING Risk of re or explosion from

fuel

Fuels are highly ammable.

Fire, open ames, smoking and creating

sparks must be avoided.

Before and during refueling, switch o

the vehicle and, if installed, the station-

ary heater.

WARNINGARNING Risk of injury from fuels

Fuels are poisonous and hazardous to your

health.

Do not swallow fuel or let it come into

contact with skin, eyes or clothing.

Do not inhale fuel vapor.

Keep children away from fuel.

Keep doors and windows closed during

the refueling process.

If you or other people come into contact with

fuel, observe the following:

Immediately rinse fuel o your skin with

soap and water.

If fuel comes into contact with your eyes,

immediately rinse them thoroughly with

clean water. Seek medical attention

immediately.

If you swallow fuel, seek medical atten-

tion immediately. Do not induce vomit-

ing.

Change immediately out of clothing that

has come into contact with fuel.

Flexible-fuel vehicles can be refueled with the fol-

lowing fuel types:

Premium grade unleaded gasoline

E85 fuel

A mixture of E85 fuel and premium grade

unleaded gasoline

Flexible-fuel vehicles can be identied by the

Ethanol up thanol up to E85o E85 sticker on the inside of the fuel

Depending on the country, the fuels you can use

in your vehicle may dier from the information in

the Operator's Manual. The fuels that have been

approved for your vehicle can be found on the

NOTETE Damage caused by the wrong fuel

Even small amounts of the wrong fuel could

result in damage to the fuel system, the

engine and the emission control system.

Only refuel with low-sulfur spark-ignition

engine fuel.

This fuel may contain up to 10% ethanol by vol-

ume. Your vehicle is suitable for use with E10

fuel.

Never refuel with one of the following fuels:

diesel

Gasoline with more than 10% ethanol by

volume, e.g. E15, E85, E100

Gasoline with more than 3% methanol by

volume, e.g. M15, M30, M85, M100

Gasoline with additives containing metal

If you have accidentally refueled with the

wrong fuel:

Do not switch on the vehicle.

Consult a qualied specialist workshop.

If the available fuel is not suciently low in sulfur,

this can produce unpleasant odors.

Only refuel with fuel that has at least the octane

number specied in the information label in the

fuel ller ap. Otherwise, engine output can be

reduced and fuel consumption increased.

For maximum engine output:or maximum engine output: Only refuel using

premium-grade unleaded gasoline with at least

91 AKI/95 RON.

If the recommended fuel is not available, you may

also temporarily use regular unleaded gasoline

with an octane number of at least 87 AKI/

91 RON. This may reduce engine output and

increase fuel consumption.

Never refuel using gasoline with an even lower

RON.

NOOTETE Premature engine wear through

unleaded regular gasoline

Impairment of the longevity and performance

of the engine.

If unleaded premium grade gasoline is unavail-

able and you have to refuel using unleaded

regular gasoline:

Only ll the fuel tank to half full with

unleaded regular gasoline and rell as

soon as possible with unleaded premium

grade gasoline.

Do not drive at the maximum design

speed.

Avoid sudden acceleration and engine

speeds over 3000 rpm.

NOTETE Damage from use of unsuitable

additives

Even small amounts of the wrong additive may

lead to malfunctions occurring.

Only add cleaning additives recommen-

ded by Mercedes-Benz to the fuel.

Mercedes-Benz recommends that you use brand-

name fuels with additives.

In some countries, the fuel available may not have

sucient additives. Deposits could build up in the

fuel injection system as a result. In this case, in

consultation with an authorized Mercedes-Benz

Center, mix the fuel with the cleaning additive rec-

ommended by Mercedes-Benz. Observe the notes

Note the instructions about operating uids

(/ page 330).

WARNINGARNING Risk of an accident due to

vapor pockets forming in the brake system

The brake uid constantly absorbs moisture

from the air. This lowers the boiling point of

the brake uid. If the boiling point is too low,

vapor pockets may form in the brake system

when the brakes are applied hard.

This causes the braking eect to be impaired.

Have the brake uid renewed at the

specied intervals.

Have the brake uid replaced regularly at a quali-

ed specialist workshop.

Only use a brake uid approved by Mercedes-

Benz according to MB-Freigabe or MB-Approval
