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-
ing stickers unless the sticker clearly states
that you may do so.
If you remove the warning stickers, you or
others could be injured by failing to recognise
certain dangers. Data stored in the vehicle
Fault data
Components critical for vehicle operation are
equipped with fault data memories as stand-
ard. There are also memories dedicated to
storing the technical reactions of vehicle
components to driving situations (e.g. the
triggering of an airbag, ESP ®
intervention).
This data is used exclusively to:
R assist in the rectification of faults and
defects
R help Mercedes-Benz optimise and develop
vehicle functions.
The data cannot be used to trace the vehicle's
movements.
When your vehicle is serviced by Mercedes-
Benz, this technical information can be read
from the fault memories. This is performed by
authorised employees of the Mercedes-Benz
service network using special diagnostic
computers. After a fault has been rectified, the informa-
tion is deleted from the memory. Other mem-
ory data is constantly overwritten. Other devices that store data
Depending on its equipment, your vehicle
may feature communications and/or enter-
tainment systems (e.g. navigation devices,
telephone systems). These allow you to save
and edit data required for the operation of the
respective device.
Further information on operation (e.g. on
deleting data) can be found in the separate
operating instructions. Introduction

i You must deactivate the radar sensor sys-
tem in certain countries and near radio
telescope facilities. You will find further
information under "Radar sensor system"
in the index.
Vehicles with a navigation system*: the radar
sensor system is deactivated automatically if
you are close to radio telescope facilities.

Heating* Auxiliary heating* departure time
Only vehicles with auxiliary heating have this
submenu.
In the
Heating submenu, you can select a
stored departure time or change a departure time, at which the vehicle is preheated by the
auxiliary heating.
The auxiliary heating timer function calcu-
lates the switch-on time according to the out-
side temperature so that the vehicle is pre-
heated by the departure time. When the
departure time is reached, the auxiliary heat-
ing continues to heat for a further five
minutes and then switches off. The auxiliary
heating adopts the 2-zone Thermatic or the
3-zone Thermotronic *temperature settings.
You can switch off the auxiliary heating by
using the remote control or the auxiliary heat-
ing button on the centre console. G
Risk of poisoning
Exhaust fumes are produced when the auxili-
ary heating is in operation. Inhaling these
exhaust fumes can be poisonous. You should
therefore switch off the auxiliary heating in
confined spaces without an extraction sys-
tem, e.g. a garage. G
Risk of fire
When the auxiliary heating is in operation,
parts of the vehicle can become very hot.
Make sure that the exhaust system does
not under any circumstances come into con-
tact with highly flammable materials such as
dry grass or fuels. The highly flammable mate-
rial could otherwise ignite and set the vehicle
alight. Select your parking space accordingly.
Operating the auxiliary heating is therefore
prohibited at filling stations or when your vehi-
cle is being refuelled. Always switch off the
auxiliary heating at filling stations.

ing a selected departure time

ing wheel to select the Settingsmenu.

ATTENTION ASSIST is reset when you con-
tinue your journey and starts judging your
tiredness anew if:
R you switch off the engine.
R you take off your seat belt and open the
driver's door, e.g. for a change of drivers or
to take a break. Speed Limit Assist*
i Speed Limit Assist is not operational in all
countries.
Speed Limit Assist, in conjunction with your
navigation system*, shows you speed limits it has detected in the multi-function display.
The display appears when traffic signs stating
the speed limit have been detected.
Example

Traffic signs showing the speed limit
; End of speed limit zone
i Sign ;indicating the end of a speed limit
zone is detected, but is not shown in the

camera at the top of the windscreen. :
Speed Limit Assist camera G
Risk of accident
Speed Limit Assist is only an aid and may
detect speed limit signs incorrectly or not at
all.
The system may be impaired or may not func-
tion if:
R there is poor visibility, e.g. due to snow,
rain, fog or spray.
R there is glare, e.g. from the sun or from
oncoming traffic. 164
