Maintenance and care
Z

!Vehicles withagasolinee ngine:avoid
repeated and lengthy starting attempts. Oth-
erwise, the catalytic converter could be dam-
aged by non-combusted fuel.
If the indicator and warning lamps in the instru-
ment cluster do not light up at low tempera-
tures, the discharged battery may have frozen.
In this case you may neither charge the battery
nor jump-start the vehicle. The service life of a
thawed battery may be shorter. Start-up behav-
ior may deteriorate, in particular at low temper-
atures. Have the thawed battery checked at a
qualified specialist workshop.
Do not use arapid charging device to start the
vehicle. If your vehicle's battery is discharged,
the engine can be jump-started from another
vehicle or from adonor battery using jumper
cables. For this purpose, the vehicle has ajump-
starting connection point in the engine com-
partment.
When jump-starting, observe the following
points:
RThe battery is not accessible in all vehicles. If
the other vehicle's battery is not accessible,
jump-start the vehicle using adonor battery
or ajump-startingd evice.
RYou may only jump-start the vehicle when the
engine and exhaust system are cold.
RDo not start the engine if the battery is frozen.
Let the battery thaw first.
RJump-starting may only be performed from
batteries with anominal voltage of 12 V.
ROnly use jumper cables that have asufficient
cross-section and insulated terminal clamps.
RIf the battery is fully discharged, attach the
battery of another vehicle for afew minutes
before attempting to start. This charges the
empty battery alittle.
RMake sure that the two vehicles do not touch.
Make sure that:
Rthe jumper cables are not damaged.
Rbare parts of the terminal clamps do not come
into contact with other metal parts while the
jumper cables are connected to the battery.
Rthe jumper cables cannot come into contact
with parts such as the V-belt pulley or the fan.
These parts move when the engine is started
and while it is running.
Jumper cables and further information regarding
jump starting can be obtained at any qualified
specialist workshop.
Before connecting the jumper cables
XApply the parking brake.
XShift the transmission to position P.
XSwitch off all electrical consumers, e.g. audio
equipment, blower.
XTurn key to position 0in the ignition lock and
remove it.
XOpen the hood (Ypage 241).
Connecting the jumper cable
XPush contact protection cover :of the jump-
starting connection point backwards against
the spring force as far as it will go.
The jump-startingc onnection point is visible.
Terminal connecting plan
XRemove the cover from positive terminal =
of the donor vehicle's battery.
XConnect the positive terminal clamp of the
jumper cable to positive terminal =of the
donor vehicle's battery, and then to positive
terminal Aof the jump-startingc onnection
point.
XRun the donor vehicle's engine at idling
speed.

Useful information
This Operator's Manual describes all models as
well as standard and optional equipment of your
vehicle that were available at the time of going
to print.Country-specific variation sare possi-
ble. Note that your vehicle may not be equipped
with all of the described functions. This also
applies to system sand function srelevantt o

Vehicle electronics
Tampering with the engine electron-
ics
!
Only have engin eelectronics and the corre-
spondin gparts, such as contro lunits ,actua-
tors, sensors or connector leads, serviced at a
qualified specialist workshop. Otherwise, the
vehicle parts may wear more quickly. This can
lead to loss of the New Vehicle Limited War-
ranty.
Installing electrical or electronic
equipment
You and other scan suffer health-related dam-
age through electromagnetic radiation .Byusing
an exterior antenna, apossible health risk
caused by electromagnetic fields, as discussed
in scientific circles, is taken int oaccount. Only
have the exterior antenn ainstalled by aqualified
specialist workshop.
Electrical and electronic devices may have a
detrimental effectonb oth the comfort and the
operatin gsafetyoft he vehicle. If equipment of
this kin disinstalled, its electromagnetic com-
patibility must be checked and verified.
If thes edevices are linked to function sassoci-
ated with resistance to interference, they must
have type approval. This applies to the device or
its interfaces to the vehicle electronics, e.g.
chargingb rackets.
At elephon eortwo-way radio to be installed in
the vehicle must be approved. Further informa-
tion can be found in any Mercedes-Benz Com-
mercial Van Center. For operatio
nofmobile phones and two-way
radios, Mercedes-Benz recommends connec-
tion to an approved exterior antenna. This is the
only way to ensure optimum reception quality
inside the vehicle and to minimize mutual inter-
ference between the vehicle electronics, mobile
phones and two-way radios.
The transmission output of the mobile phone or
two-way radio may not exceed the following
maximum transmission output (PEAK):
