Operating safety and vehicle approval
Important safety notes
GWARNING
If you do not have the prescribed service/
maintenance work or any required repairs
carried out, this can result in malfunctions or system failures. There is a risk of an accident.
Always have the prescribed service/mainte-
nance work as well as any required repairs
carried out at a qualified specialist workshop.
Air bags and pyrotechnic Emergency Tensioning
Devices (ETDs) contain perchlorate material
which may require special handling and regard
for the environment. Check with your local gov- ernment’s disposal guidelines.
In California, you can find more information on
the Internet at www.dtsc.ca.gov.
Notes on operating the vehicle
There is a risk of damage to the vehicle if:
Rthe vehicle makes contact with the ground,
e.g. on a high curb or a loose road surface
Ryou drive too fast over an obstacle, e.g. a
curb, a speed bump or a pothole
Ra heavy object hits the underbody or chassis
component
In such situations, the body/frame, the under-
body, suspension parts, wheels or tires could be
damaged without the damage being visible.
Components that have been damaged in this
way can unexpectedly fail or no longer be able to assimilate the loads occurring in the event of an
accident. If the underbody paneling is damaged,
flammable material, such as leaves, grass or
twigs, could collect between the underbody and
underbody paneling. These materials could
ignite if they remain in contact with hot compo-
nents of the exhaust system for an extended
period.
GWARNING
Flammable material such as leaves, grass or
twigs may ignite if they come into contact with
hot parts of the exhaust system. There is a risk of fire.
30Introduction

Mercedes-Benz tests genuine Mercedes-Benz
parts, conversion parts and accessories that
have been specifically approved for the type of
vehicle for:
RReliability
RSafety
RSuitability
Despite ongoing market research, Mercedes-
Benz is unable to assess other parts. Even if an
independent or official approval has been pro-
vided in exceptional cases, Mercedes-Benz
accepts no responsibility for the use of such
parts in Mercedes-Benz vehicles.
In some countries, certain parts are only offi-
cially approved for installation or modification if
they comply with legal requirements. All genu-
ine Mercedes-Benz parts satisfy these require-
ments. Make sure that all parts are suitable for
your vehicle.
Always specify the vehicle identification number
(VIN) (
Ypage 305) and engine number when
ordering genuine Mercedes-Benz parts
(
Ypage 306).
QR code for rescue card
The QR Code stickers are affixed to the B-pillar
on the driver's and front-passenger side.
In the event of an accident the rescue services
use the QR Code to quickly find the rescue card for your vehicle. The current rescue card con-
tains the most important information on your
vehicle, e.g. the electric cable routes, in a com-
pact form.
Further information can be found at http://
www.mercedes-benz.de/qr-code.
Data stored in the vehicle
Information from electronic control
units
There are electronic control units installed in
your vehicle. Some of these are necessary for
your vehicle to operate safely, while some offer
support during driving (driver assistance sys-
tems). In addition, your vehicle offers comfort
and entertainment functions that are also made
possible by electronic control units.
Electronic control units contain data storage
systems that can temporarily or permanently save technical information concerning the vehi-
cle's condition, component stress and mainte-
nance requirements as well as technical events
and malfunctions.
This information generally documents the con-
dition of a component, a module, a system or the surroundings, for example:
Roperating states of system components (e.g.
fill levels, battery status, tire pressure)
Rstatus messages concerning the vehicle or its
individual components (e.g. number of wheel
revolutions/speed, deceleration in move-
ment, lateral acceleration, display of fastened
seat belts)
Rmalfunctions and defects in important system
components (e.g. lights, brakes)
Rinformation about events leading to vehicle
damage
Rsystem responses in special driving situations
(e.g. air bag deployment, intervention of sta-
bility control systems)
Rambient conditions (e.g. temperature, rain
sensor)
In addition to performing the actual control unit function, this data is used by manufacturers to
detect and rectify malfunctions and to optimize
vehicle functions. Most of this data is volatile
and processed only in the vehicle itself. Only a
small part of the data is stored in event or mal-
function memories.
When you use services, the technical data from
the vehicle can be read out by service network
employees or third parties. Services can include
repair services, maintenance processes, war-
ranty cases and quality assurance measures.
The data is read out via the connection for OBD
(European on-board diagnostics) in the vehicle,
which is required by law. The relevant offices in
the service network or third parties collect,
process and use the data. This data documents
the vehicle's technical states, is used to help in
finding malfunctions and improving quality and
is sent to the manufacturer where necessary. Inaddition, the manufacturer is subject to product
liability. The manufacturer needs technical data
from vehicles for this purpose.
Malfunction memories in the vehicle can be
reset by a service center during repair or service
work.
You can incorporate data into the vehicle's com-
fort and infotainment functions y
ourself as part
of the selected equipment.
34Introduction
Page 37 of 318

These include, for example:
Rmultimedia data such as music, films or pho-
tos for playback in an integrated multimedia
system
Raddress book data for use in conjunction withan integrated hands-free system or an inte-
grated navigation system
Rnavigation destinations that have been
entered
Rdata about using Internet services
This data can be saved locally in the vehicle or is
located on a device that you have connected to
the vehicle. If this data is saved in the vehicle,
you can delete it at any time. This data is sent to third parties only at your request, particularly
when you use online services in accordance with
the settings that you have selected.
You can save and change comfort settings/
customizations in the vehicle at any time.
Depending on the piece of equipment in ques-
tion, these can include, for example:
Rsettings for the seat and steering wheel posi- tions
Rsuspension and climate control settings
Rcustomizations such as interior lighting
If your vehicle is equipped appropriately, you
can connect your smartphone or another mobile
terminal to the vehicle. You can control this by
means of the control elements integrated in the vehicle. The smartphone's picture and sound
can be output via the multimedia system. Spe-
cific items of information are also sent to your
smartphone.
Depending on the type of integration, this can
include, for example:
Rgeneral vehicle status
Rposition data
This allows the use of selected smartphone
apps, such as navigation or music player apps.
There is no additional interaction between the
smartphone and the vehicle, particularly active
access to vehicle data. The type of additional
data processing is determined by the provider of
the app being used. Whether you can configure settings for it and, if so, which ones, depends on
the app and your smartphone's operating sys-
tem.
Service provider
Wireless network connection
If your vehicle has a wireless network connec-
tion, it enables data to be exchanged between
your vehicle and other systems. The wireless
network connection is made possible by the
vehicle's own transmitter and receiver or by
mobile end devices that you have brought into
the vehicle (e.g. smartphones). Online functions
can be used via this wireless network connec-
tion. These include online services and applica-
tions/apps provided by the manufacturer or
other providers.
Services provided by the manufacturer
In the case of the manufacturer's online serv-
ices, the manufacturer describes the functions
in a suitable place and the associated informa-
tion subject to data protection legislation. Per-
sonal data can be used in order to provide online
services. The data exchange for this takes place
via a secure connection, e.g. with the manufac- turer's IT systems intended for the purpose. Col-
lecting, processing and using personal data
beyond the provision of services is permitted
only on the basis of a statutory permit or decla-
ration of consent.
You can usually activate and deactivate the serv-
ices and functions (sometimes subject to a fee).
In many cases, this also applies to the vehicle's
entire data connection. This does not include
legally prescribed functions and services such
as the "E-Call" emergency call system.
Services from third parties
If it is possible to use online services from other
providers, these services are the responsibility
of the provider in question and subject to that
provider's data protection conditions and terms
of use. The manufacturer has no influence over
the content exchanged here.
For this reason, please ask the service providerfor information about the type, extent and pur-
pose of the collection and use of personal data
when services are provided by third parties.

you are changing the wiper blades, you could be trapped by the wiper arm. There is a risk of
injury.
Always switch off the windshield wipers and
ignition before changing the wiper blades.
!Never open the hood/tailgate or rear doors
if a windshield wiper arm has been folded
away from the windshield/rear window.
Never fold a windshield wiper arm without a
wiper blade back onto the windshield/rear
window.
Hold the windshield wiper arm firmly when
you change the wiper blade. If you release the
windshield wiper arm without a wiper blade
and it falls onto the windshield/rear window,
the windshield/rear window may be damaged
by the force of the impact. Mercedes-Benz recommends that you have
the wiper blades changed at a qualified spe-
cialist workshop.
!Only hold the wiper blade by the wiper arm.
You could otherwise damage the wiper rub-
ber.
Wiper blades are wear parts. The windshield will
no longer be wiped properly if the wiper blades
are worn. This may prevent you from observing
the traffic conditions.
Please observe the service indicator after
changing the wiper blades of the windshield
wiper.
