Cleaning the exhaust pipe G
WARNING
The exhaust tail pipe and tail pipe trim can
become very hot. If you come into contact
with these parts of the vehicle, you could burn
yourself. There is a risk of injury.
Always be particularly careful around the
exhaust tail pipe and the tail pipe trim. Allow
these components to cool down before touch-
ing them.
! Do not clean the exhaust pipe with acid-
based cleaning agents, such as sanitary
cleanser or wheel cleaner.
! Vehicles with black exhaust pipes: black
chromed screens should not be polished with a chrome polish. They will otherwise lose their black shine. For optimal care, the screens
should be rubbed with a lightly oiled cloth
after every car wash. Commercially available
engine and care oils are suitable for this.
For heavier soiling, you can apply a fine paint- work polish with a microfibre cloth. Remove
the excess polish residue after polishing.
X Clean the exhaust pipe with a chrome care
product tested and approved by Mercedes-
Benz.
Impurities combined with the effects of road grit
and corrosive environmental factors may cause
flash rust to form on the surface. You can
restore the original shine of the exhaust pipe by cleaning it regularly, especially in winter and
after washing the vehicle. Interior care
Cleaning the display !
For cleaning, do not use any of the following:
R alcohol-based thinner or petrol
R abrasive cleaning agents

Environmental note
Have the used tyre sealant bottle disposed of professionally, e.g. at a qualified specialist
workshop.
If a tyre pressure of 180 kPa (1.8 bar/26 psi) has been attained after five minutes:
X Switch off the tyre inflation compressor.
X Unscrew the filler hose from the valve of the
faulty tyre.
Leave the tyre sealant bottle attached to the
flange.
X Stow the tyre sealant bottle, the tyre inflation
compressor and the warning triangle.
X Pull away immediately.
X Stop after driving for approximately ten
minutes and check the tyre pressure with the
tyre inflation compressor.
The tyre pressure must now be at least
130 kPa (1.3 bar/19 psi). G
WARNING
If the required tyre pressure is not reached
after driving for a short period, the tyre is too badly damaged. The tyre sealant cannot
repair the tyre in this instance. Damaged tyres and a tyre pressure that is too low can signif-
icantly impair the vehicle's braking and driv-
ing characteristics. There is a risk of accident.
Do not continue driving. Contact a qualified
specialist workshop.
i In your vehicle, you will find a sticker with
the Mercedes-Benz Service24h telephone
number, e.g. on the B-pillar on the driver's
side.

Important safety notes
Work on the battery, e.g. removing or fitting,
requires specialist knowledge and the use of
special tools. Therefore, always have work on
the battery carried out at a qualified specialist
workshop. G
WARNING
Work carried out incorrectly on the battery
can lead, for example, to a short circuit and
thus damage the vehicle electronics. This can lead to function restrictions applying to
safety-relevant systems, e.g the lighting sys-
tem, the ABS (anti-lock braking system) or the
ESP ®
(Electronic Stability Program). The oper-
ating safety of your vehicle may be restricted.
You could lose control of the vehicle, for
example:
R when braking
R in the event of abrupt steering manoeuvres
and/or when the vehicle's speed is not
adapted to the road conditions
There is a risk of an accident.
In the event of a short circuit or a similar inci- dent, contact a qualified specialist workshop
immediately. Do not drive any further. Always have work on the battery carried out at a
qualified specialist workshop.

!
Only use battery chargers with a maximum
charging voltage of 14.8 V.
All vehicles:
! Only charge the battery using the jump-start
connection point.
The jump-starting connection point is in the
engine compartment (Y page 253).
X Open the bonnet.
X Connect the battery charger to the positive
terminal and earth point in the same order as when connecting the donor battery in the
jump-starting procedure (Y page 253).
Keep away from fire and open flames. Do not
lean over the battery. Never charge the battery
if it is still fitted to the vehicle, unless you use a battery charger which has been tested and
approved by Mercedes-Benz. A battery charger
unit specially adapted for Mercedes-Benz vehi-
cles and tested and approved by Mercedes-
Benz is available as an accessory. This device
permits charging of the battery in position. Con- tact a Mercedes-Benz Service Centre for infor-
mation and availability. Read the battery charg-
er's operating instructions before charging the
battery.
All vehicles except vehicles with a lithium-
ion battery: if the indicator/warning lamps in
the instrument cluster do not light up at low
temperatures, it is very likely that the dis-
charged battery has frozen. In this case you may neither jump-start the vehicle nor charge the
battery. The service life of a battery that has
been thawed may be reduced. The starting char-
acteristics may be impaired, especially at low
temperatures. Have the thawed battery
checked at a qualified specialist workshop.
Vehicles with a lithium-ion battery: at low
temperatures, do not charge a battery which has
been removed using a battery charger. Allow the
battery to warm up gently first, if necessary.
Otherwise, the service life can be shortened and the starting characteristics impaired, especially at low temperatures. Jump-starting
For the jump-starting procedure, use only the jump-starting connection point, consisting of a pos- itive terminal and an earth point, in the engine compartment.
All vehicles except vehicles with a lithium-ion battery: G
WARNING
Battery acid is caustic. There is a risk of injury.
Avoid contact with the skin, eyes or clothing. Do not breathe in any battery gases. Do not lean over the battery. Keep the batteries out of the reach of children. Immediately rinse off battery acid
thoroughly with plenty of clean water and seek medical attention at once. G
WARNING
During charging and jump-starting, explosive gases can escape from the battery. There is a risk of an explosion.
Particularly avoid fire, naked flames, creating sparks and smoking. Ensure there is sufficient
ventilation while charging and jump-starting. Do not lean over a battery. G
WARNING
During the charging process, a battery produces hydrogen gas. If a short circuit occurs or sparks
are created, the hydrogen gas can ignite. There is a risk of an explosion.

It is important that you observe the described order of the battery terminals when connecting
and disconnecting a battery.
R When jump-starting, make sure that the battery poles with identical polarity are connected.
R It is particularly important to observe the described order when connecting and disconnecting
the jump leads.
R Never connect or disconnect the battery terminals while the engine is running. G
WARNING
A discharged battery can freeze at temperatures below freezing point. When jump-starting the
vehicle or charging the battery, gases can escape from the battery. There is a risk of an explosion.
Allow the frozen battery to thaw out before charging it or jump-starting.
If the indicator/warning lamps do not light up at low temperatures, it is very likely that the dis-
charged battery has frozen. In this case you may neither jump-start the vehicle nor charge the
battery. The service life of a battery that has been thawed may be reduced. The starting charac-
teristics may be impaired, especially at low temperatures. Have the thawed battery checked at a
qualified specialist workshop.
All vehicles:
! Avoid repeated and lengthy starting attempts. Otherwise, the catalytic converter could be
damaged by the non-combusted fuel.
Do not use a rapid charging device to start the vehicle. If your vehicle's battery is discharged, the
engine can be jump-started from another vehicle or from a second battery using jump leads.
Observe the following points:
R The battery is not accessible in all vehicles. If the other vehicle's battery is not accessible, jump-
start the vehicle using a second battery or a jump-starting device.
R You may only jump-start the vehicle when the engine and exhaust system are cold.
R All vehicles except vehicles with a lithium-ion battery: do not start the engine if the battery
is frozen. Let the battery thaw first.
R Jump-starting may only be performed using batteries with a nominal voltage of 12 V.
R Only use jump leads that have a sufficient cross-section and insulated terminal clamps.
R If the battery is fully discharged, leave the battery that is being used to jump-start connected for
a few minutes before attempting to start. This charges the empty battery a little.
R Make sure that the two vehicles do not touch.
Make sure that:
R The jump leads are not damaged.
R Non-insulated parts of the terminal clamps do not come into contact with other metal parts while
the jump leads are connected to the battery.

Additionally, the tyre pressure table may also
state tyre pressures for different load condi-
tions. These are defined in the table as different numbers of passengers and amounts of lug-
gage. The actual number of seats may vary; for
more information, please refer to the vehicle's
registration documents.
If tyre sizes are not specified, the tyre pressures stated on the tyre pressure table apply for all
tyres approved for this vehicle. If a tyre size precedes a tyre pressure, the fol-
lowing tyre pressure information is only valid for that tyre size.
Use a suitable pressure gauge to check the tyre
pressure. The outer appearance of a tyre does
not permit any reliable conclusion about the tyre
pressure. You can also check the tyre pressure
using the on-board computer.
If possible, only correct tyre pressures when the
tyres are cold.
The tyres are cold:
R if the vehicle has been parked with the tyres
out of direct sunlight for at least three hours
and
R if the vehicle has not been driven further than
1.6 km
Depending on the ambient temperature, the
vehicle speed and the load on the tyres, the tyre temperature and thus the tyre pressure changes by approximately 10 kPa (0.1 bar/1.5 ps i) per
10 †. Take this into account when checking the
pressure of warm tyres. Only correct the tyre pressure if it is too low for the current operating
conditions.
Driving with tyre pressure that is too high or too
low can:
R shorten the service life of the tyres
R cause increased tyre damage
R have a negative effect on handling character-
istics and thus driving safety (e.g. aquaplan-
ing)
The tyre pressure values given for low loads are
minimum values which offer you good ride com- fort characteristics.
However, you can also use the values given for
higher loads. These are permissible and will not
adversely affect the running of the vehicle.
This improves the ride comfort of your vehicle;
however, fuel consumption may increase
slightly. Tyre pressure monitor
General notes If a tyre pressure monitor system is fitted, the
vehicle's wheels have sensors fitted that moni-
tor the tyre pressures in all four tyres. The tyre
pressure monitor warns you if the pressure
drops in one or more of the tyres. The tyre pres- sure monitor only functions if the corresponding sensors are fitted to all wheels.
Information on tyre pressures is shown in the
multifunction display. After a few minutes of
driving, the current tyre pressure of each tyre is
shown in the Service Servicemenu of the multifunction
display; see illustration (example). For further information on displaying this mes-
sage, refer to the "Checking the tyre pressure
electronically" section (Y
page 266). Tyre pressure

Important safety notes
It is the driver's responsibility to set the tyre
pressure to the recommended cold tyre pres-
sure suitable for the operating situation
(Y page 264). Note that the correct tyre pres-
sure for the current operating situation must
first be taught-in to the tyre pressure monitor. If
there is a substantial loss of pressure, the warn-
ing threshold for the warning message is aligned to the reference values taught-in. Restart the
tyre pressure monitor after adjusting to the cold tyre pressure (Y page 267). The current pres-
sures are saved as new reference values. This
will ensure that a warning message will only
appear if the tyre pressure drops significantly.
The tyre pressure monitor does not warn you of
an incorrectly set tyre pressure. Observe the
notes on the recommended tyre pressure
(Y page 264).
The tyre pressure monitor is not able to warn
you of a sudden loss of pressure, e.g. if the tyre
is penetrated by a foreign object. In the event of a sudden loss of pressure, bring the vehicle to a
halt by braking carefully. Avoid abrupt steering
manoeuvres.
The tyre pressure monitor has a yellow warning lamp in the instrument cluster for indicating a
pressure loss or malfunction. Depending on how
the warning lamp flashes or lights up, a tyre
pressure that is too low or a malfunction in the
tyre pressure monitor is indicated:
R if the warning lamp is lit continuously, the tyre
pressure on one or more tyres is significantly
too low. The tyre pressure monitor is not mal-
functioning.
R if the warning lamp flashes for around a
minute and then remains lit constantly, the
tyre pressure monitor is malfunctioning.
In addition to the warning lamp, a message
appears in the multifunction display. Observe
the information on display messages
(Y page 189).
It may take up to ten minutes for a malfunction
of the tyre pressure monitor to be indicated. A
malfunction will be indicated by the tyre pres-
sure warning lamp flashing for approximately
one minute and then remaining lit. When the
fault has been rectified, the tyre pressure warn- ing lamp goes out after you have driven for a few
minutes.
The tyre pressure values indicated by the on-
board computer may differ from those meas-
ured at a filling station using a pressure gauge. The tyre pressures shown by the on-board com-
puter refer to those measured at sea level. At
high altitudes, the tyre pressure values indica-
ted by a pressure gauge are higher than those
shown by the on-board computer. In this case,
do not reduce the tyre pressures.
The operation of the tyre pressure monitor can
be affected by interference from radio transmit- ting equipment (e.g. radio headphones, two-way
radios) that may be being operated in or near the vehicle.

few minutes of driving, this is rectified and the
tyre pressures are displayed for the correct
positions.
Restarting the tyre pressure monitor When you restart the tyre pressure monitor, all
existing warning messages are deleted and the
warning lamps go out. The monitor uses the cur-
rently set tyre pressures as the reference values
for monitoring. In most cases, the tyre pressure monitor will automatically detect the new refer-
ence values after you have changed the tyre
pressure. However, you can also set reference
values manually as described here. The tyre
pressure monitor then monitors the new tyre
pressure values.
