GWARNING
If you switch off the ignitio nwhile driving,
safety-relevant functions are only available
with limitations, or not at all .This coul daffect,
for example, the power steering and the brake
boosting effect. You wil lrequire considerably
more effort to steer and brake. There is arisk
of an accident.
Do not switch off the ignitio nwhile driving.
GWARNING
If the parking brake has not been fully
released when driving, the parking brake can:
Roverheat and caus eafire
Rlose its hold function.
There is arisk of fire and an accident. Release
the parking brake full ybefore driving off.
!Do not war mupthe engine with the vehicle
stationary. Drive off immediately. Avoid high
engine speeds and driving at full throttle until
the engine has reache dits operating temper-
ature.
Only shift the automatic transmission to the
desired drive position when the vehicleiss ta-
tionary.
Where possible,a voids pinning the drive
wheels when pulling awa yonslippery roads.
You coul dotherwise damage the drive train.
!Mercedes-AMG vehicles: at low engine oil
temperatures below 68 ‡(+20 †), the max-
imum engine speedisr estricted in order to
protect the engine. To protect the engine and
maintai nsmooth engine operation, avoi ddriv-
ing at full throttle when the engine is cold.

3To start the engine
iThe SmartKey can be turned in the ignition
lock even if it is not the correct SmartKey for
the vehicle. The ignitio nisnot switched on.
The engine cannot be started.
Start/Stop button
General notes
When you insert the Start/Stop button into the
ignitio nlock, the system needs approximately
two seconds recognitio ntime. You can then use
the Start/Stop button.
Pressing the Start/Stop button severalt imes in
succession corresponds to the different key
positions in the ignitio nlock. This is only the
case if you are not depressing the brake pedal.
If you depress the brake pedala nd press the
Start/Stop button, the engine starts immedi-
ately.
Ac heck which periodically establishe saradio
connection between the vehiclea nd the Smart-
Key determines whethe ravalidS martKey is in
the vehicle. This occurs, for example, when
starting the engine.

RACE START
Important safety notes
iRACE START must not be used on normal
roads. RACE START must only be activated
and used on dedicated road circuits ,outside
of public road use.
iRACE START is only availablei n
Mercedes ‑AMG vehicles.
RACE START enables optimal acceleration from
as tandin gstart .For this, asuitably high-grip
road surface is required, along with the tires and
vehicle being in proper operating condition.
GWARNING
If you use RACE START, individual tires may
start to spin and the vehicle could skid.
Dependin gonthe selected ESP
®mode, there
is an increased risk of skidding and having an accident .Make sure that no persons, animals
or obstacles are within range of the vehicle.
iObserve the safety notes on driving safety
systems (Ypage 61).
Be sure to read the safety notes and informa-
tion on ESP
®(Ypage 67).
Conditions for activation
You can activate RACE START if:
Rthe doors are closed.
Rthe engine is runnin gand it has reached an
operating temperature of approximately
160 ‡(71 †). This is the case when the oil
temperature gauge in the multifunction dis-
play is shown in white.
Rthe drive program S,S+ orRace is selected.
(Ypage 139)
Rthe steerin gwheel is in the straight-ahead
position.
Rthe vehicle is stationary and the brake pedal is
depressed (left foot).
Rthe transmission is in position D.
Activating RACE START
iWhen manual mode (Ypage 146) is active,
the transmission automatically shifts up to
RACE START in the drive program. This func-
tion supports maximum acceleration with
RACE START. After going through an acceler-
ating process once from astationary position,
this function is automatically deactivated.
XDepress the brake pedal with your left foot
and keep it depressed.
XPull and hold both steerin gwheel paddle shift-
ers (Ypage 146).

iIf the activation conditions are no longer ful-
filled, RACE START is canceled. The RACE

Engine oil
Important safety notes
GWARNING
Certain components in the engine compart-
ment, such as the engine, radiator and parts
of the exhaust system, can become very hot.
Working in the engine compartmentp oses a
risk of injury.
Where possible, let the engine cool down and touch only the components described in the
following.
GWARNING
If engine oil comes into contact with hot com- ponentsint he engine compartment, it may
ignite. There is arisk of fire and injury.
Make sure that engine oil is not spilled next to
the filler neck.L et the engine cool down and
thoroughly clean the engine oil off the com-
ponentsb efore startin gthe engine.
General notes
Depending on your driving style, the vehicle
consumes up to 0.9 US qt (0.8 liters) of oil per
600 miles (1,000 km). The oil consumption may
be higher than this when the vehicle is new or if
you frequently drive at high engine speeds.
Depending on the engine, the oil dipstick may be
inad ifferent location.
When checking the oil level:
Rpark the vehicle on alevel surface
Rthe engine should be switched off for approx-
imately five minutes if the engine is at normal
operating temperature
Rall vehicles (except Mercedes-AMG C63/C
63S): if the engine is not at normal operating
temperature, e.g. if the engine was only star-
ted briefly, wait approximately 30 minutes
before carrying out the measurement
The oil level of the Mercedes-AMG C63/C 63 S
must be checked only when the engine is at
normal operating temperature.

Uniform TireQualityG rading Standards
Aunifor mstandard to grade the quality of tires
with regards to tread quality, tire traction and
temperature characteristics. The quality grad-
ing assessmentism ade by the manufacturer
following specification sfrom the U.S .govern-
ment .The ratings are molded int othe sidewall of
the tire.
Recommended tir epressures
The recommended tire pressure applies to the
tires mounted at the factory.
The Tire and Loading Information placard con-
tains the recommended tire pressures for cold
tires on afully loaded vehicle and for the maxi-
mum permissible vehicle speed.
The tire pressure table contains the recommen-
ded pressures for cold tires for various operat-
ing conditions, i.e. differingl oad and speed con-
ditions.
Increased vehicle weight due to optional
equipment
The combined weight of all standard and
optional equipment available for the vehicle,
regardless of whether it is actually installed on
the vehicle or not.
Rim
This is the part of the wheel on which the tire is
mounted.
GAWR (Gross Axle Weight Rating)
The GAWR is the maximum gross axle weight
rating. The actual load on an axle must never
exceed the gross axle weight rating. The gross
axle weight ratin gcan be found on the vehicle
identification plate on the B-pillar on the driver's
side.
Speed rating
The speed ratin gispart of the tire identification.
It specifies the speed range for which the tire is
approved.
GVW (Gross Vehicle Weight)
The gross vehicle weight includes the weight of
the vehicle includin gfuel, tools, the spare wheel,
accessories installed, occupants, luggage and
the drawbar noseweight ,ifapplicable. The gross
vehicle weight must not exceed the gross vehi-
cle weight ratin gGVWR as specified on the vehi-
cle identification plate on the B-pillar on the
driver'ss ide.
GVWR(Gross Vehicle Weight Rating)
The GVWR is the maximum permissible gross
weight of afully loaded vehicle (the weight of the
vehicle includin gall accessories, occupants,
fuel, luggage and the drawbar n
oseweight
,if
applicable). The gross vehicle weight ratin gis
specified on the vehicle identification plate on
the B-pillar on the driver'ss ide.
Maximum loaded vehicle weight
The maximum weight is the sum of:
Rthe curb weight of the vehicle
Rthe weight of the accessories
Rthe load limit
Rthe weight of the factory installed optional
equipment
Kilopascal (kPa)
Metric unit for tire pressure. 6.9 kPa corre-
sponds to1psi. Another unit for tire pressure is
bar. 100 kilopascals (kPa) are the equivalent of
1b ar.
Load index
In addition to the load-bearin gindex ,the load
index may also be imprinted on the sidewall of
the tire. This specifies the load-bearin gcapacity
more precisely.
Curb weight
The weight of avehicle with standard equipment
includin gthe maximum capacityoff uel, oil and
coolant .Italso includes the air-conditionin gsys-
tem and optional equipment if these are instal-
led in the vehicle, but does not include passen-
gers or luggage.
Maximum load rating
The maximum tire load is the maximum permis-
sible weight in kilogram sorlbs for which atire is
approved.
Maximum permissible tir epressure
Maximum permissible tire pressure for one tire.
Maximum load on one tire
Maximum load on one tire. This is calculated by
dividing the maximum axle load of one axle by
two.
