Notes for persons with electronic medical aids
Despite meticulous development of their vehicle systems, Mercedes‑BenzAG
cannot completely rule out the interaction of vehicle systems with electronic
medical aids, suchas cardiac pacemakers.
In addition, there are components installed in the vehicle that can generate
magnetic fields on a par with permanent magnets, regardless of the operating
status of the vehicle. These fields may occur in the area around the multime‐
dia system and sound system, forexample, or in the area around the seats,
depending on the respective vehicle equipment.
IN SOME CASES, THIS COULD RESULT IN THE FOLLOWING, DEPENDING
ON THE AIDS USED:
R
Medical aids malfunctioning
R
Adverse health effects
Note the information and warnings from the manufacturer of the auxiliary
equipment, and in case of uncertainty, please consult the manufacturer of
the auxiliary equipment and/or your doctor. If there is continuing uncertainty
concerning the possibility of medical aids malfunctioning, Mercedes‑BenzAG
recommends using fewer electrical vehicle systems and/or maintaining a dis‐
tance from the components.
WHEN CHARGING THE HIGH-VOLTAGE BATTERY, KEEP A DISTANCE OF AT
LEAST AN ARM'S LENGTH BETWEEN THE MEDICAL AID AND THE FOLLOW‐
ING COMPONENTS:
R

This includes charging stations in the form of a wallbox or a public
charging point, forexample.
R
vehicle components carrying live voltage
This includes the charging cable and the charging control box, forexam‐
ple.
