When you take advantage of engine braking, a
drive wheel may not turn for some time, e.g.
on aslippery road surface. This could cause
damage to the drive train. This type of damage is not covered by the Mercedes-Benz war-
ranty.
Heavy and light loads
GWARNING
If you rest your foot on the brake pedal while
driving, the braking system can overheat. This increases the stoppin gdistanc eand can even
cause the braking system to fail. There is a
risk of an accident.
Never use the brake pedal as afootrest. Never
depress the brake pedal and the accelerator
pedal at the same time.
!Depressin gthe brake pedal constantly
results in excessive and premature wear to
the brake pads.
If the brakes have been subjected to aheavy
load, do not stop the vehicle immediately. Drive
on for ashort while. This allows the airflow to
cool the brakes more quickly.
Wet roads
If you have driven for along time in heavy rain
without braking, there may be adelayed reac-
tion from the brakes when braking for the first
time. This may also occur after the vehicle has
been washed or driven through deep water.
You have to depress the brake pedal more
firmly. Maintain agreater distanc efrom the
vehicle in front.
After driving on awet road or having the vehicle
washed, brake firmly while paying attention to
the traffic conditions. This will warm up the
brake discs, thereby drying them more quickly
and protecting them against corrosion.
Limited braking performance on salt-
treated roads
If you drive on salted roads, alayer of salt resi-
due may form on the brake discs and brake
pads. This can result in asignificantly longer
braking distance.
RIn order to prevent any salt build-up, apply the
brakes occasionally while paying attention to
the traffic conditions.
RCarefully depress the brake pedal and the
beginnin gand end of ajourney.
RMaintain agreater distanc etothe vehicle
ahead.
Servicing the brakes
!The brake fluid level may be too low, if:
Rif the red brake warning lamp lights up in
the instrument cluster and
Ryou hear awarning ton ewhile the engine is
running
Observe additional warning messages in the
multifunction display.
The brake fluid level may be too low due to
brake pad wear or leaking brake lines.
Have the brake system checked immediately. Consult aqualified specialist workshop to
arrange this.
!Vehicles with 4MATIC: function or per-
formance test smay only be carried out on a2-
axle dynamometer. If you wish to operate the
vehicle on such adynamometer, please con-
sult aqualified specialist workshop in
advance. You could otherwise damage the
drive train or the brake system.
!Vehicles with 4MATIC: the ESP®system
operates automatically. The engine and the
ignition must therefore be switched off (the
SmartKey must be in position 0or 1in the
ignition lock or the Start/Stop button must be
in position 0or 1)ift he electric parking brake
is tested on abrake dynamometer.
Brakin gtriggered automatically by ESP
®may
cause severe damage to the brake system.
All checksa nd maintenance work on the brake
system must be carried out at aqualified spe-
cialist workshop.
Have brake pads installed and brake fluid
replaced at aqualified specialist workshop.
If the brake system has only been subject to
moderate loads, you should test the functional-
ity of your brakes at regular intervals.

Driving and parking

The system is switched to passive and no longer
assists you by performingsteeringinterventions
if:
Ryou actively change lane
Ryou switch on the turn signal
Rtake your hands off the steerin gwheel or do
not steer for aprolonged period of time
iSteering Assist and Stop&Go Pilot are acti-
vated again automatically after alane change
is completed.
Steering Assist and Stop&Go Pilot do not pro-
vide any support:
Ron very sharp corners
Rwhen aloss of tire pressure or adefective tire
has been detected and displayed
Pay attention also to the important safety notes for DISTRONIC PLUS (
Ypage 163).
The steerin ginterventions are carried out with a
limited steerin gmoment.T he system requires
the driver to keep his hands on the steering
wheel and to steer himself.
If you do not steer yourself or if you take your
hands off the steerin gwheel for aprolonged
period of time, the system will first alert you with
av isual warning. Asteerin gwheel symbol
appears in the multifunction display.Ify ou have
still not started to steer and have not taken hold
of the steerin gwheel after five seconds at the
latest, awarning ton ealso sounds to remind you
to take control of the vehicle. Steering Assist
and Stop&Go Pilot are switched to passive.
DISTRONIC PLUS remains active.

HOLD function
General notes
The HOLD function can assist the driver in the
following situations:
Rwhen pulling away,e specially on steep slopes
Rwhen maneuvering on steep slopes
Rwhen waiting in traffic
The vehicle is kept stationary without the driver having to depress the brake pedal.
The braking effect is canceled and the HOLD
function deactivated when you depress the
accelerator pedal to pull away.

General notes
The Adaptive Damping System automatically
controls the calibration of the dampers.
The damping is tuned individually to each wheel
and depends on:
Ryour driving style, e.g. sporty
Rthe road surface condition,e .g. bumps
Ryour individual selection, i.e. sports or com-
fort
Your selection remains stored even if you
remove the SmartKey from the ignition lock.
Sportst uning
In theSand S+drive programs, the firmer sus-
pension settinge nsures even better contact
with the road. Select this mode when employing as porty driving style, e.g. on winding country
roads.
XSelect the Sor S+ drive program with the
DYNAMIC SELECT switch (Ypage 139).
The vehicle is lowered by 0.6 in (15 mm) com-
pared to the normal level.
Comfort tuning
In the Eand Cdrive programs, the driving char-
acteristic sofyour vehicle are more comforta-
ble. Therefore, select this mode if you favor a
more comfortable driving style. Select comfort
mode also when driving fast on straight roads,
e.g. on straight stretches of highway.
XSelect the Eor Cdrive program with the
DYNAMIC SELECT switch (Ypage 139).
The vehicle is raised to the normal level.
When driving at speeds above 78 mph
(12 5km/h), the vehicle is automatically low-

activated. When parking on the driver's side,
this must remain switched on until you acknowl-
edge the use of Activ eParking Assist by press-

General notes
With MOExtended tire s(tires with run fla tchar-
acteristics) ,you can continu etodrive your vehi-

or more tires. The affected tire mus tnot show
any clearl yvisible damage.
You can recognize MOExtended tire sbythe
MOExtended marking which appears on the
sidewal lofthe tire .You will find this marking
next to the tire size designation, the load-bear-
ing capacity and the speed index (
Ypage 330).
MOExtended tire smay only be used in conjunc-
tion with an active tire pressure loss warning
system or with an active tire pressure monitor.
If ap ressure loss warnin gmessage appears
