ting off. Impaired visibility could otherwise
endanger yourself and others.
i At very low temperatures, the rear win-
dow heating is only switched on once the
vehicle interior has warmed up.
i The rear window heating has a high cur-
rent draw. You should therefore switch it
off
as soon as the window is clear, as it only

cle will then be recirculated. G
Risk of accident

wise, the windows could mist up, thus
impairing visibility and endangering your-
self and others. This may prevent you from
observing the traffic conditions, thereby
causing an accident.

Risk of accident and injury
An incorrectly secured roof rack, ski rack
or load could work loose from the vehicle.
These objects may then be thrown around
and can injure you or others or cause an
accident. Follow the roof rack/ski rack
manufacturers' installation instructions
and special instructions for use.
The roof load raises the vehicle's centre of
gravity, thereby affecting vehicle handling.
You must always observe the maximum
roof load of 100 kg. Always adapt your driv-
ing style to the prevailing road, traffic and
weather conditions and drive with particu-
lar care if the roof is laden.
! Mercedes-Benz recommends that you
only use roof rack systems which have been tested and approved for Mercedes-
Benz vehicles. This helps to prevent dam-
age to the vehicle.
Position the load on the roof rack in such a
way that the vehicle will not sustain dam-
age even when it is in motion.
Depending on the vehicle's equipment,
make sure that you can:
R
raise the sliding/tilting sunroof* fully
R open the boot lid fully 1
Covers
X Fold covers 1 upwards.
X Only secure the roof rack to the anchorage
points under covers 1.

X Slide the lower end of the mobile phone
into connector contact 2 in mobile phone
bracket 3.
X Push the top part of the mobile phone in
the direction of arrow 1 until it engages in
mobile phone bracket 3.
The mobile phone is connected to the
hands-free system and to the multi-func-
tion steering wheel.
The battery is charged depending on the
charge status and the position of the key in
the ignition lock. The charging process is
shown in the mobile phone display. i
The system reads the phone book stored
on the SIM card and in the mobile phone
memory. If the same entry is stored in both
of the phone books, both of these entries
will be shown in the multi-function display.
You can make a call using the s and
t buttons on the multi-function steering
wheel. You can control other mobile phone
functions via the on-board computer
(Y page 130).
i When you remove the key from the igni-
tion lock, the mobile phone remains
switched on for approximately ten minutes
(run-on time). If you make a call during this
time, the mobile phone will be switched off
approximately ten minutes after you have
ended the call.
Run-on time:
You can change the run-on time by making
an additional phone book entry on the SIM
card. For the name, enter "Idletime" and for
the number, enter a figure between "1" and
"30" (minutes). If you have not entered a
number or have entered a different num-
ber, the run-on time of ten minutes will still
apply. For information on how to create a phone
book entry, refer to the mobile phone oper-
ating instructions.
Own number sending:
The hands-free system does not recognise
whether own number sending is enabled or
disabled in the mobile phone. The phone
number is therefore always sent by default.
By creating an additional phone book entry
on the SIM card, you can switch the own
number sending function on and off. For
the name, enter "CALLID" and for the num-
ber, enter a "0" or a "1". Entering "0" will
prevent the telephone number from being
sent; entering "1" will allow it to be sent.
For information on how to create a phone
book entry, refer to the mobile phone oper-
ating instructions.
