Have accessories retrofitted at a qualified
specialist workshop.
You could jeopardise the operating safety of
your vehicle if you use parts, tyres and wheels as
well as accessories relevant to safety that have not been approved by Mercedes-Benz. This
could lead to malfunctions in safety-relevant
systems, e.g. the brake system. Use only genu-
ine Mercedes-Benz parts or parts of equal qual- ity. Use only tyres, wheels and accessories that
have been specifically approved for your vehi-
cle.
Mercedes-Benz tests genuine parts and conver-
sion parts and accessories that have been spe-
cifically approved for your vehicle for their reli-
ability, safety and suitability. Despite ongoing
market research, Mercedes-Benz is unable to
assess other parts. Mercedes-Benz therefore
accepts no responsibility for the use of such
parts in Mercedes-Benz vehicles, even if they
have been officially approved or independently
approved by a testing centre.
In Germany, certain parts are officially approved for installation or modification only if they com-
ply with legal requirements. This also applies to some other countries. All genuine Mercedes-
Benz parts meet the approval requirements. The
use of non-approved parts may invalidate the
vehicle's general operating permit.
This is the case:
R if they cause a change of the vehicle type from
that for which the vehicle's general operating permit was granted
R if other road users could be endangered
R if the emission or noise levels are adversely
affected
Always specify the vehicle identification number (VIN) (Y page 359) when ordering genuine
Mercedes-Benz parts. Owner's Manual
Vehicle equipment
i This Owner's Manual describes all models,
standard and optional equipment for your
vehicle that were available at the time of going to press. Country-specific differences are
possible. Note that your vehicle may not be
fitted with all features described. This is also
the case for systems and functions relevant to safety. Therefore, the equipment on your vehicle may differ from that in the descrip-
tions and illustrations.
The original purchase contract documentation
for your vehicle contains a list of all of the sys-
tems in your vehicle.
Should you have any questions concerning
equipment and operation, please consult a
Mercedes-Benz Service Centre.
The Owner's Manual and Service Booklet are
important documents and should be kept in the vehicle. Operating safety

G
WARNING
If you do not have the prescribed service/
maintenance work or necessary repairs car-
ried out, this could result in malfunctions or
system failures. There is a risk of an accident.
Always have the prescribed service/mainte-
nance work as well as necessary repairs car-
ried out at a qualified specialist workshop. G
WARNING
Flammable material such as leaves, grass or
twigs may ignite if they come into contact with hot parts of the exhaust system. There is a risk of fire.
When driving off road or on unpaved roads,
check the vehicle's underside regularly. In
particular, remove parts of plants or other
flammable materials which have become
trapped. In the case of damage, contact a
qualified specialist workshop. G
WARNING
Modifications to electronic components, their software as well as wiring could affect their
function and/or the operation of other net-
worked components. This could in particular
also be the case for systems relevant to
safety. They might not function properly any-
more and/or jeopardise the operational
safety of the vehicle. There is an increased
risk of an accident and injury. 28

Semi-universal child restraint systems are indi-
cated by the text "semi-universal" on the
approval label. These can be used if the vehicle
and the seat are listed in the child restraint sys-
tem manufacturer's vehicle model list. For fur-
ther information, contact the child restraint sys- tem manufacturer or visit the manufacturer's
website.
If circumstances require you to fit a child
restraint system on the front-passenger seat:
X Always observe the notes under "Child
restraint system on the front-passenger seat"
(Y page 61).
There you will find instructions on how to cor- rectly route the shoulder belt strap from the
vehicle belt outlet to the shoulder belt guide
on the child restraint system (Y page 62).
X Move the front-passenger seat as far back as
possible and fully retract the seat cushion
length. X
Move the backrest to an almost vertical posi-
tion.
The entire base of the child restraint system
must always rest on the seat cushion of the
front-passenger seat. The backrest of the
forward-facing child restraint system must, as far as possible, be resting on the backrest of
the front-passenger seat. The child restraint
system must not touch the roof or be put
under strain by the head restraint. Adjust the angle of the seat backrest and the head
restraint position accordingly. In addition,
observe the child restraint system manufac-
turer's installation instructions.
X Move the seat cushion angle to the highest,
most vertical position.
Suitability of the seats for attaching a belt-secured child restraint system If you use a baby car seat of category 0 or 0+ or a rearward-facing child restraint system of category
I on a rear seat, you must adjust the driver's or front-passenger seat so that the seat does not touch the child restraint system.
Make sure that the child's feet do not touch the front seat. If necessary, move the front seat forwards
slightly.
For certain child restraint systems in weight categories II or III, this can mean that the area of use is restricted. The maximum size setting of the child restraint system may not be possible due to
possible contact with the roof.
When the soft top is opened and closed, child restraint systems of weight categories II or III must be
removed or the head restraint of the child restraint system must be set to the lowest position.
You can have the head restraints of the rear seats removed and installed by a qualified specialist
workshop. This may be necessary for the use of certain child restraint systems.
In addition, always observe the notes under "Child restraint system" (Y page 60) and the child
restraint system manufacturer's installation instructions.
