Overview of driving systems and driving

systems:

R

Depending on the vehicle's equipment, the radar

sensors are integrated behind the bumpers

and/or behind the Mercedes star. The ultrasonic

sensors are located in the front and rear bump‐

ers. Keep these parts free of dirt, ice and slush

(/ page 433). The sensors must not be cov‐

ered, for example by bicycle racks, overhanging

loads, stickers, foil or foils to protect against

stone chipping. Additional license plate brackets

can likewise impair the function of the ultrasonic

sensors. In the event of damage to the bumpers

or radiator grill, or following a collision impacting

the bumpers or radiator grill, have the function

of the sensors checked at a qualified specialist

workshop. If the sensors are damaged, some

driving systems and driving safety systems may

no longer function properly.
