out the work required. Mercedes-Benz rec-
ommends that you use a Mercedes-Benz
Service Centre for this purpose. G
Risk of accident and injury
Some safety systems only function when the
engine is running. Therefore, do not switch off
the engine when driving. Otherwise, the
safety systems in your vehicle may no longer
function correctly and, therefore, not protect
you or others as they are designed to do.
There is also a risk that you could lose control
of the vehicle and cause an accident as a
result. G
Risk of accident and injury
Work carried out incorrectly or modifications
to the vehicle, e.g. cables laid under the trim,
can impair the function of the safety systems.
The safety systems may no longer be able to
protect you or others as they are designed to
do. There is also a risk that you could lose
control of the vehicle and cause an accident
as a result.
Therefore always have work and modifica-
tions to the vehicle, such as installations or
conversions, carried out at a qualified spe-
cialist workshop. G
Risk of accident
If you drive over obstacles at high speed or if
the vehicle bottoms out in rough terrain, it
could cause heavy impacts to the vehicle
underbody, tyres or wheels. This could cause
your vehicle to be damaged, which in turn
might lead to an accident. This also applies to
vehicles which are equipped with underbody
protection.
You should therefore drive over obstacles
slowly and prevent the vehicle from bottom-
ing out when driving off-road. If necessary,
have your vehicle inspected at a qualified spe-
cialist workshop. G
Risk of accident
If work on electronic equipment and its soft-
ware is carried out incorrectly, the equipment could stop functioning. The electronic sys-
tems are networked via interfaces. Tampering
with these electronic systems could cause
malfunctions in systems which have not been
modified. Such malfunctions can seriously
compromise the vehicle's operating safety
and your own safety as well.
Therefore, have all work on and modifications
to electronic components carried out by a
qualified workshop. Vehicle registration
Mercedes-Benz may ask its Service Centres
to carry out technical inspections on certain
vehicles to improve their quality or safety.
If you did not purchase your vehicle from an
authorised specialist dealer and your vehicle
has never been inspected at a Mercedes-
Benz Service Centre, it is possible that your
vehicle is not registered in your name with
Mercedes-Benz. Mercedes-Benz can only
inform you about vehicle checks if it has your
registration data.
It is advisable to register your vehicle with a
Mercedes-Benz Service Centre.
Inform Mercedes-Benz as soon as possible
about any change in address or vehicle own-
ership. Correct use
Observe the following information when using
your vehicle:
R the safety notes in this manual
R the "Technical data" section in this manual
R national road traffic regulations
R national road traffic licensing regulations G
Risk of injury
Various warning stickers are affixed to your
vehicle. Their purpose is to draw your atten-
tion, and the attention of others, to various
dangers. Therefore, do not remove any warn- 20
