Protection of the environment
General notes
HEnvironmental note
Daimler's declared policy is one of compre-
hensive environmental protection.
The objectives are for the natural resources
that form the basis of our existence on this
planet to be used sparingly and in amanner
that takes the requirements of both nature
and humanity into account.
You too can help to protect the environment
by operating your vehicle in an environmen-
tally responsible manner.
Fuel consumption and the rate of engine,
transmission, brake and tire wear are affected by these factors:
Roperating conditionsofy our vehicle
Ryour personal driving style
You can influence both factors. You should
bear the following in mind:
Operating conditions:
Ravoid short trips as these increase fuel con-
sumption.
Ralways make sure that the tire pressures
are correct.
Rdo not carry any unnecessary weight.
Rremove roof racks once you no longer need
them.
Rar egularly serviced vehicle will contribute
to environmental protection. You should
therefore adhere to the service intervals.
Ralways have service work carried out at a
qualified specialist workshop.
Personal driving style:
Rdo not depress the accelerator pedal when
startin gthe engine.
Rdo not warm up the engine when the vehicle
is stationary.
Rdrive carefully and maintain asafe distance
from the vehicle in front.
Ravoid frequent, sudden acceleration and
braking.
Rchange gear in good time and use each gear
only up to Ôof its maximum engine speed.
Rswitch off the engine in stationary traffic.
Rkeep an eye on the vehicle's fuel consump-
tion.
HEnvironmental note
Have adefective high-voltage battery dis-
posed of in an environmentally-responsible
manner. Contact aqualified specialist work-
shop which has the necessary specialist
knowledge and tools to carry out the work
required. Mercedes-Benz recommends that
you use an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center
for this purpose.
Environmental concerns and recom-
mendations
Wherever the operating instructions require you
to dispose of materials, first try to regenerate or
re-use them. Observe the relevant environmen-
tal rules and regulations when disposing of
materials. In this way you will help to protect the
environment.
Genuine Mercedes-Benz parts
HEnvironmental note
Daimler AG also suppliesr econditioned major
assemblies and parts which are of the same
quality as new parts. They are covered by the
same Limited Warranty entitlements as new
parts.
!Air bags and Emergency Tensioning Devi-
ces, as well as control units and sensors for
these restraint systems, may be installed in
the following areas of your vehicle:
Rdoors
Rdoor pillars
Rdoor sills
Rseats
Rcockpit
Rinstrumentc luster

When the vehicle has been braked to astand-
still, the electric parking brake is engaged.
Parking the vehicle for alongp eriod
If you leave the vehicle parked for longer than
four weeks, the battery may be damaged by
exhaustive discharging.
If you leave the vehicle parked for longer than six
weeks, the vehicle may suffer damage as a
resultoflack of use.
XVisit aqualifieds pecialist workshop and seek
advice.
iYou can obtain information abou ttrickle

General driving tips
Important safety notes
GWARNING
If you switch off the ignition whil edriving,
safety-relevant functions are only available
with limitations, or not at all .This could affect,
for example ,the powers teering 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 ignition whil edriving.
GWARNING
If you operate mobilec ommunication equip-
ment whiled riving, you willbed istracted from
traffic conditions. You could also lose control
of the vehicle.T here isarisk of an accident.
Only operate this equipment when the vehicle
is stationary.
Observe the legalr equirements for the country
in which you are driving. Some jurisdictions pro-
hibitt he driver from using amobilep hone while
driving avehicle.
If you make acall whiled riving, always use
hands-free mode. Only operate the telephone
when the traffic situation permits. If you are
unsure, pul lover to asafe location and stop
before operating the telephone.
Bear in mind that at aspeed of only 30 mph
(approximatel y50km/h), the vehicle covers a
distance of 44 ft (approximatel y14m)p er sec-
ond.
Drive sensibly –save fuel
Observe the following tips to save fuel:
XThe tires should always be inflated to the rec-
ommended tire pressure.
XRemove unnecessary loads.
XRemove roof racksw hen they are not needed.
XWarm up the engineatlow engin espeeds.
XAvoid frequenta cceleration or braking.
XHave all maintenanc ework carried out as
indicated by the servicei ntervals in the Main-

The ECO display consistsofthree sections, with
an inner and outer area. The section scorre-
spond to the following three categories:
:Acceleration (evaluation of all accel-
eration processes):
Rthe outer area fills up and the inner area lights up green: moderate
acceleration ,especially at higher
speeds
Rthe outer area empties and the
inner area is gray: sporty acceler-
ation
;Coasting (evaluation of all decelera-
tion processes):
Rthe outer area fills up and the inner area lights up green: anticipatory
driving, keeping your distance and
early release of the accelerator.
The vehicle can coast without use
of the brakes.
Rthe outer area empties and the
inner area is gray: frequent heavy
braking
=Constant (continuous evaluation
over the entir ejourney):
Rthe outer area fills up and the inner
area lights up green: constant
speed and avoidance of unneces-
sary acceleration and deceleration
Rthe outer area empties and the
inner area is gray: fluctuations in
speed
The three inner areas display the current driving
style and light up green as aresult of aparticu-
larly economical driving style. Dependin gonthe
driving situation, up to two areas may light up
simultaneously.
At the beginning of the journey, the three outer
areas are empty and fill up as aresult of eco-
nomical driving. Ahigher level indicates amore
economical driving style. If the three outer areas
are completely filled at the same time, the driver
has adopted the most economical driving style
for the selected settings and prevailing condi-
tions. The ECO display border lights up.
The ECO display does not indicate the actual fuel consumption. The additionally achieved range
displayed under Bonus fr. Start
does not
indicate afixed consumption reduction. In addition to driving style, the actual consump-
tion is affected by other factors, such as:
Rload
Rtire pressure
Rcold start
Rchoice of route
Relectrical consumer
sswitched on
These factor sare not included in the ECO dis-
play.
An economical driving style specially requires
driving at moderate engine speeds.
Achievingah igher value in the categories
"Acceleration" and "Constant":
Robserve the gearshift recommendations.
Rdrive in drive program E.
On long journeys at aconstant speed, e.g. on the
highway, only the outer area for "constant" will
change.
The ECO display summarizes the driving style
from the start of the journey to its completion.
Therefore, there are more marked changes in
the outer areas at the start of ajourney. On lon-
ger journeys, there are fewer changes. For more
marked changes, perform amanual rest
(
Ypage 206).
For further information on the ECO display,s ee

Ypage 205).
Braking
Important safety notes
GWARNING
If you shift down on aslippery road surface in
an attempt to increase the engine's braking
effect,t he drive wheels could lose their grip.
There is an increased danger of skidding and
accidents.
Do not shift down for additional engine brak-
ing on aslippery road surface.
Downhill gradients
!On long and steep gradients, you must
reduce the load on the brakes by shiftin gtoa
lower gear in good time. This allows you to
take advantage of the engine's braking effect.
This helps you to avoid overheating the
brakes and wearing them out excessively.

Active Lane Keeping Assist monitors the area in
front of you rvehicle by means of multifunction
camera :at the top of the windshield. Various
different area stothe front, rear and side of your
vehicle are also monitored with the aid of the
rada rsensor system. Active Lane Keeping
Assist detects lane markings on the road and
can warn you before you leave you rlane unin-
tentionally .Ifyou do not react to the warning, a
lane-correcting application of the brakes can
bring the vehicle back into the originall ane.
Important safety notes
If you fail to adapt yourdriving style, Active Lane
Keeping Assist can neither reduce the risk of
accident nor override the law sofphysics. Active
Lane Keeping Assist cannot take account of
road and weather conditions. It may not recog-
nize traffic situations. Active Lane Keeping
Assist is only an aid .You are responsible for the
distance to the vehicle in front, for vehicle
speed,f or braking in good time and for staying in
you rlane.
Active Lane Keeping Assist cannot continuously
keep you rvehicle in its lane.
