5 Introduction
Operating safety
The manufacturer warrants to the original
and each subsequent owner of a
Mercedes-Benz heavy-duty on highway
diesel engine that:
(1) the engine was designed, built and
equipped so as to conform at the time
of sale with the applicable regulations
adopted by the Federal Environmental
Protection Agency, and
(2) the emission control system of such
engine is free from defects in materials
and workmanship which would cause it
not to conform with those regulations
for a period of use of five years or
100000 miles or 3000 hours of engine
operation, whichever occurs first.
The Owner’s Warranty Information Book
contains detailed information about the
warranties covering your Sprinter.The manufacturer may instruct its autho-
rized Sprinter Dealer to carry out technical
inspections on certain vehicles to improve
their quality or safety.
If you did not purchase your vehicle from
an authorized dealership and your vehicle
has not yet been inspected at an autho-
rized Sprinter Dealer, there is a possibility
that your vehicle has not been registered in
your name with the manufacturer. The
manufacturer will only be able to inform
you about vehicle inspections if the manu-
facturer is in possession of your registra-
tion data.
It is advisable to have your vehicle regis-
tered at an authorized Sprinter Dealer.
Inform the manufacturer as soon as possi-
ble if your address has changed or there
has been a change of vehicle owner.
Warning
G
A heavy impact to the underbody, tires or
wheels, for example when bottoming out on
rough terrain or driving over an obstacle at
high speed, could damage your vehicle. This
also applies to vehicles equipped with un-
derbody protection.
In this case, have your vehicle checked at an
authorized Sprinter Dealer which has the
necessary specialist knowledge and tools to
carry out the work required. The manufac-
turer recommends that you use an autho-
rized Sprinter Dealer for this purpose.
In particular, work relevant to safety or on
safety-related systems must be carried out
at an authorized Sprinter Dealer.

EBV monitors and regulates the brake
pressure at the rear wheels to improve
driving stability during braking.There is a malfunction if the #, k,
- and indicator lamps are perma-
nently lit while the engine is running
(\2page 268). Electronic brake force distribution
(EBV)Warning
G
If EBV malfunctions, the brake system is still
available with the full brake boosting effect.
However, the rear wheels may lock, for ex-
ample if the brakes are applied with maxi-
mum force. You could then lose control of
the vehicle and cause an accident. Always
adapt your driving style to the change in
handling characteristics.
Have the system checked at an authorized
Sprinter Dealer as soon as possible.

guarded at the rear and may only be seen by
other road users when they are close to the
vehicle. This could lead to an accident.

safeguarded at the rear in accordance with
national legal requirements, e.g. with a
warning triangle.Front interior lighting

erwise be unable to observe road and traffic
conditions and could cause an accident.
Do not reach through the steering wheel to
press the adjustment buttons. This will
make the steering wheel much more difficult
to control. Your attention will also be divert-
ed from the road and traffic conditions. This
could cause you to lose control of the vehi-

ing wheel or dashboard when operating the
adjustment buttons.

bridges. You could skid if you do not adopt a
suitable driving style. You should therefore al-
ways adapt your driving style and speed to
suit the weather conditions.

when the vehicle is stationary or moving
slowly.

250 °F (120 °C) when the vehicle is being
driven in normal conditions and if the cool-
ant contains the correct concentration of
corrosion inhibitor and antifreeze. It is ac-
ceptable for the coolant temperature to
rise to the end of the scale at high outside
temperatures and when driving in moun-
tainous terrain.You can use the functions in the
