The red coolant warning lamp comes on while the engine is running.
The coolant level is too low.
If the coolant level is correct, the airflow to the engine radiator may be blocked
or the electric engine radiator fan may be malfunctioning.
The coolant is too hot and the engine is no longer being cooled sufficiently.
X Observe the additional display messages in the multifunction display.
X Stop the vehicle immediately, paying attention to road and traffic condi-
tions, and switch off the engine.
X Safeguard the vehicle against rolling away (Y page 181).
X Leave the vehicle and keep a safe distance from the vehicle until the engine
has cooled down.
X Check the coolant level and top up the coolant, observing the warning notes
(Y page 342).
X If you have to top up the coolant frequently, have the engine cooling system
checked.
X Make sure that the air supply to the engine radiator is not blocked, e.g. by
frozen slush.
X Do not start the engine again until the coolant temperature is below 125 †.
The engine may otherwise be damaged.
X Drive to the nearest qualified specialist workshop.
X Avoid putting the engine under heavy load as you do so, e.g. driving in
mountainous terrain and stop-start traffic. ?

ted can cause some fluids which may have leaked into the engine compart-
ment to catch fire.
In addition, steam from an overheated engine can cause serious burns, which
can occur just by opening the bonnet.
There is a risk of injury.

sion surrounding the possible health risk
posed by electromagnetic fields.
Mercedes-Benz recommends the use of an
approved exterior aerial. This ensures:
R optimal mobile phone reception quality in
the vehicle
R that mutual interference between the vehi-
cle electronics and mobile phones is mini-
mised
An exterior aerial has the following advan-
tages:
R it conducts the electromagnetic fields gen-
erated by a wireless device to the exterior
R the field strength in the vehicle interior is
lower than in a vehicle that does not have
an exterior aerial
Information on retrofitting two-way radios
and mobile phones (RF transmitters)
(Y page 402).
General notes Depending on the vehicle equipment, there
are various mobile phone brackets that may
be fitted in your vehicle; in some cases, these
are country-specific.
More information on suitable mobile phones,
mobile phone brackets and on connecting
Bluetooth ®
-capable mobile phones with
COMAND Online can be obtained:
R at your Mercedes-Benz Service Centre
R on the Internet at http://www.mercedes-
benz.com/connect
The functions and services available when
you use the phone depend on your mobile
phone model and service provider.
Using a mobile phone To connect a mobile phone to the exterior
aerial and charge it, insert it into the mobile
phone bracket. X
Open the telephone compartment
(Y page 318).
X Place the mobile phone bracket into the
pre-installed fitting; see the separate instal-
lation instructions for the mobile phone fit-
ting.
X Insert the mobile phone into the mobile
phone bracket; see the separate installa-
tion instructions for the mobile phone fit-
ting.
i The mobile phone can also be operated
without being in the bracket. However, the charging function and aerial function are
not available.
In order to use Bluetooth ®
(SAP profile) on
your telephone module, you must first insert
the telephone module into the pre-installed
fitting. This connects it to the exterior aerial.
If you wish to charge the mobile phone, then
you must connect it to a USB port.
Further information on the telephone module
with Bluetooth ®
(SAP profile) can be found in
the Digital Owner's Manual.
Operating the mobile phone You can operate the telephone using the
6 and~ buttons on the multifunction
steering wheel. You can operate other mobile
phone functions via the on-board computer
(Y page 256).
When you remove the key from the ignition
lock, the mobile phone is disconnected from
the vehicle. You can then no longer make calls using the hands-free system.
If a call is active and you remove the key from the ignition lock, the conversation is trans-
ferred over to the mobile phone. It is then
possible to continue the conversation on the
mobile phone. Features
