When driving off road or on unpaved roads,
check the vehicle's underside regularly. In
particular, remove parts of plants or other
flammable materials which have become
trapped. In the case of damage, contact a
qualified specialist workshop.
Have the vehicle checked and repaired immedi-
ately at a qualified specialist workshop. If you
become aware when continuing the journey that
driving safety has been effected, stop as soon as
possible in accordance with the traffic condi-
tions. In such cases, consult a qualified special- ist workshop.
Declaration of conformity
Radio-based vehicle components
USA: "The wireless devices of this vehicle com-
ply with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is
subject to the following two conditions: 1) These
devices may not cause harmful interference. 2.
This device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation. Changes or modifications
not expressly approved by the party responsible

interference that may cause undesired opera-
tion of the device".
Diagnostics connection
The diagnostics connection is only intended for the connection of diagnostic equipment at a
qualified specialist workshop.
GWARNING
If you connect equipment to a diagnostics
connection in the vehicle, it may affect the
operation of vehicle systems. As a result, the
operating safety of the vehicle could be affec-
ted. There is a risk of an accident.
Only connect equipment to a diagnostics con-
nection in the vehicle, which is approved for
your vehicle by Mercedes-Benz.
Changing the engine power output
!
Increases in engine power can:
Rchange the emission values
Rcause malfunctions
Rcause consequential damage
The operating reliability of the engine is not
guaranteed in all cases.
Any tampering with the engine management
system in order to increase the engine power
output will lead to the loss of the New Vehicle
Limited Warranty and other warranty entitle-
ments.
If you sell the vehicle, inform the purchaser
about the changes to the engine power output of
the vehicle. If you do not inform the buyer, this
may constitute a punishable offense under
national legislation.
Qualified specialist workshops
A Mercedes-Benz Commercial Van Center is a
qualified specialist workshop.
A qualified specialist workshop has the neces-
sary specialist knowledge, tools and qualifica-
tions to correctly carry out the work required on
the vehicle.
This is especially the case for work relevant to
safety. Observe the notes in the Maintenance or
Service Booklet.
The following work should always be carried out at qualified specialist workshop:
Rwork relevant to safety
Rservice and maintenance work
Rrepair work
Rmodifications as well as installations and
alterations
Rwork on electronic components
Mercedes-Benz recommends that you use a
Mercedes-Benz Commercial Van Center.
!Only have work carried out on the engine
electronics and its associated parts, such as
control units, sensors, actuating components
and connector leads, at a qualified specialist

Towing a trailer
PARKTRONIC detects a coupled trailer if your
vehicle is equipped with the corresponding elec-
trical installations for trailer towing.
PARKTRONIC is deactivated for the rear area
when you establish an electrical connectionbetween your vehicle and a trailer. If you use an
adapter for the socket, remove it from the
socket after detaching the trailer. Otherwise,
PARKTRONIC remains deactivated for the rear
area.
Problems with PARKTRONIC
ProblemPossible causes/consequences and
MSolutions
Only the red segments in
the PARKTRONIC warn-
ing displays are lit.
In addition, a warning
tone sounds for approx.
two seconds
PARKTRONIC is then
deactivated.
The indicator lamp of the
f button lights up
and the red segments in
the PARKTRONIC warn-
ing display go out.PARKTRONIC has malfunctioned and has switched itself off.
XIf problems persist, have PARKTRONIC checked at a qualified spe- cialist workshop.
The PARKTRONIC warn-
ing displays implausible
distances.
For example, all the seg-
ments may be lit even
though there is no obsta-
cle present.The PARKTRONIC sensors are dirty or iced up.
XClean the PARKTRONIC sensors (Ypage 266).
XTurn the key to position 2in the ignition lock.
The license plate or other parts attached near the sensors may not be
secured correctly.
XCheck the license plate and attachment parts near the sensors for
correct seating.
An external radio or ultrasonic source may be causing interference.
XCheck PARKTRONIC functions in a different location.
Active Parking Assist
General notes
Active Parking Assist is an electronic parking
aid. The system uses ultrasound sensors to
measure the road on both sides of the vehicle
and indicates suitable parking spaces. It can
then actively steer and brake the vehicle to help
you to park and exit the parking space.
Active Parking Assist includes the PARKTRONIC
parking aid which indicates visually and audibly the distance between your vehicle and an
object. To do this, PARKTRONIC uses the ultra- sonic sensors of the Active Parking Assist
(
Ypage 151).
Important safety notes
Active Parking Assist is only an aid. It is not a
substitute for your attention to the immediate
surroundings. You are responsible for safe
maneuvering, parking and pulling away. Make
sure that no persons, animals or objects are in
the maneuvering range.
When you deactivate PARKTRONIC, Active Park-
ing Assist will also be deactivated.

Tires
Display messagesPossible causes/consequences andMSolutions
AdjustTirePressureThe tire pressure is too low in at least one of the tires, or the tire
pressure difference between the wheels is too great.
XCheck the tire pressure at the next opportunity (Ypage 284).
XIf necessary, correct the tire pressure.
XRestart the tire pressure monitor (Ypage 287).
Check TiresAn additional warning tone sounds.
The tire pressure in one or more tires has dropped significantly. The
display shows the wheel position.
GWARNING
Underinflated tires pose the following risks:
RThe tires may burst, especially as the load and vehicle speed
increase.
RThe tires may wear excessively and/or unevenly, which may greatly
impair tire traction.
RThe handling as well as steering and braking characteristics may be
severely affected.
There is a risk of an accident.
XStop the vehicle without making any sudden steering or braking
maneuvers. Pay attention to the traffic conditions while doing so.
XSecure the vehicle to prevent it from rolling away (Ypage 133).
XCheck the tires and, if necessary, change the wheel (Ypage 296).
XCheck the tire pressure (Ypage 284).
XIf necessary, correct the tire pressure.
Warning Tire Mal‐functionThe tire pressure in one or more tires has dropped suddenly. The dis-
play shows the wheel position.
GWARNING
Driving with a flat tire poses a risk of the following hazards:
RA flat tire affects the ability to steer or brake the vehicle.
RYou could then lose control of the vehicle.
RContinued driving with a flat tire will cause excessive heat build-up
and possibly a fire.
There is a risk of an accident.
XStop the vehicle without making any sudden steering or braking
maneuvers. Pay attention to the traffic conditions while doing so.
XSecure the vehicle to prevent it from rolling away (Ypage 133).
XCheck the tires and, if necessary, change the wheel (Ypage 296).
Tire Pressure Moni‐tor CurrentlyUnavailable
Due to a source of radio interference, no signals can be received from
the wheel sensors. The tire pressure monitor is temporarily malfunc-
tioning.
The tire pressure monitor restarts automatically as soon as the prob-
lem has been solved.
