Risk of injury
Excessive electromagnetic radiation may
also cause damage to your health and the
health of others. Using an exterior aeria l
takes into account current scientific dis-
cussions relating to the possible health haz-
ards that may result from electromagnetic
fields .
For this reason, only have the exterior aeria l
fitted at a qualified specialist worksho p
which has the necessary specialist knowl-
edge and tools to carry out the work
required. Mercedes-Benz recommend s
that you use a Mercedes-Benz Service
Centre for this purpose. In particular, work
relevant to safety or on safety-related sys-
tems must be carried out at a qualifie d
specialist workshop.
i To ensure optimum reception quality for
mobile phones and two-way radios in the
vehicle, and to minimise mutual influences between the vehicle electronics and mobile
phones/two-way radios, Mercedes-Benz
recommends the use of approved exterior
aerials. An attached exterior aerial has the
effect that the electromagnetic fields trans-
mitted by a wireless device are conducted
to the exterior of the vehicle; the field
strength within the vehicle interior is lower
than in a vehicle that does not have an
exterior aerial. Frequency range Maximum trans-

7 Tyres and wheels
! For safety reasons, Mercedes-Benz rec-
ommends that you only use tyres which
have been approved by Mercedes-Benz
specifically for your vehicle. These tyres ar e
specially adapted for use with the control
systems, such as ABS or ESP ®
, and are
marked as follows:
R MO = Mercedes-Benz Original
R MOE = Mercedes-Benz Original Extended
(with run-flat characteristics)
If you use other tyres, Mercedes-Benz can-
not accept any responsibility for damage
which may occur. Information about tyres
can be obtained from any Mercedes-Ben z
Service Centre.
! If you fit tyres other than those tested and
recommended by Mercedes-Benz, charac-
teristics such as handling, noise levels and
fuel consumption, etc. may be adversel y
affected. In addition, when driving with a
load, dimensional variations and differen t
tyre deformation characteristics could
cause the tyres to make contact with the
bodywork and axle components. This could
result in damage to the tyres or the vehicle. i
Further information about tyres and
wheels can be obtained from any
Mercedes-Benz Service Centre.
You will find a table of tyre pressures on the
inside of your vehicle's fuel filler flap . You
will find further information about tyre pres-
sures in the "Operation" section
( Y page 213). Technical data
