Navigation system
Important safety notes
GWARNING
If you operate information systems and com-
munication equipment integrated in the veh i-
cle while driving, you will be distracted from
traffic conditions. You could also lose control
of the vehicle. There is a risk of an accident.
Only operate the equipment when the traffic
situation permits. If you are not sure that this
is possible, park the vehicle paying attention
to traff icconditions and operate the equip-
ment when the vehicle isstationary.
Observe the legal requirements for the country
you are in.
The multimedia system calculates the route to
the destination without taking account of the
following, for example:
Rtraff iclights
Rstop and giveway signs
Rparking or stopping restrictions
Rroad narrowing
Rother road and traffic rules and regulations
The multimedia system may provide incorrect
navigation announcements if the surroundings
do not correspond to the data on the digital
map. For example, a route may have been diver-
ted or the direction of a one-way street may have
changed.
For this reason, you must always observe road
and traffic rules and regulations during your
jo urney. Road and traffic rules and regulations
always have priority over the system's driving
recommendations.

nificantly too low. The tire pressure monitor is
not malfunctioning.
RUSA only: if thehwarning lamp flashes for
60 seconds and then remains lit constantly,
the tire pressure monitor is malfunctioning.
The display also shows a message:
Ron vehicles without steering wheel buttons
(Ypage 201)
Ron vehicles with steering wheel buttons
(Ypage 217)
USA only: if the tire pressure monitor is mal-
functioning, it may be more than ten minutes
before the malfunction is shown. The htire
pressure warning lamp flashes for 60 seconds
and then remains lit. When the malfunction has
been rectified, the htire pressure warning
lamp goes out after a few minutes of driving.
The tire pressure values indicated by the on-
board computer may differ from those meas-
ured at a gas station with a pressure gage. The
tire pressures shown by the on-board computer
refer to those measured at sea level. At high
altitudes, the tire pressure values indicated by a pressure gage are higher than those shown by
the on-board computer. In this case, do not
reduce the tire pressures.
If radio transmitting equipment (e.g. wireless
headphones, two-way radios) is operated inside
the vehicle or in the vicinity of the vehicle, this
can interfere with the operati
on of the tire pres-
sure monitor.

automatically detects new wheels or new sen-
sors. As long as a clear allocation of the tire
pressure value to the individual wheels is not
possible, the
Tire
PressureMonitorActivemessage is shown instead of the tire pressure
display. The tire pressures are already being
monitored.

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 variations are possi-

Vehicle electronics
Tampering with the engine electron-
ics
!
Only have engine electronics and the corre-
sponding parts, such as control units, 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 others can suffer health-related dam-
age through electromagnetic radiation. By using
an exterior antenna, a possible health risk
caused by electromagnetic fields, as discussed
in scientific circles, is taken into account. Only
have the exterior antenna installed by a qualified specialist workshop.
Electrical and electronic devices may have a
detrimental effect on both the comfort and the
operating safety of the vehicle. If equipment of
this kind is installed, its electromagnetic com-
patibility must be checked and verified.
If these devices are linked to functions associ-
ated with resistance to interference, they must
have type approval. This applies to the device or
its interfaces to the vehicle electronics, e.g.
charging brackets.
A telephone or two-way radio to be installed in
the vehicle must be approved. You can obtain
further information from any Mercedes-Benz
Commercial Van Center. For operation of mobile 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):
Frequency rangeMaximum trans-
mission output
