Electrical closing assist
If your vehicle is equipped with electrical
closing assist, you will require less force to
close the sliding door. Electrical step
Important safety notes
If you do no tuse the grab handle and the step,
you could injure yourselfw hen getting in and
out of the vehicle.
In order to reduce risks:
R draw the passengers' attention to the
electrical step. Wait until the electrical step
is fully extended.
R do not jump out of the vehicle.
R only use the grab handle and step. Only
they are designed for such a load.
R keep grab handles, access steps and entry
sills free from dirt, e.g. mud, clay, snow and
ice. Operation and obstacle detection
Electrical step
The sliding door of your vehicle can be
equipped with an electrical access step.
X When getting in and out of the vehicle, use
the grab handles and electrical step 0005.
Electrical step 0005automatically extends
when the sliding door is opened and retracts
when it is closed. Electrical step
0005is equipped with an
obstruction detection device on the front
side. If the step comes into contact with an
obstacle while it is extending, it stops.
After you have removed the obstacle, you
must first close the sliding door and open it
once again so that the step can extend
completely.
i If the electrical step obstructs loading,
you can prevent the step from extending
when opening the sliding door via obstacle
detection. The electrical step can then
remain retracted and aforklift or other
lifting equipment can be moved nearer to
the cargo compartment.
Vehicles without steering-wheel buttons: if
the 0004 indicator lamp in the instrument
cluster lights up and a warning tone sounds,
electrical step 0005is malfunctioning
(Y page 219).
Vehicles with steering-wheel buttons: if the
Electrical Step message is shown in the
display and a warning tones ounds, electrical
step 0005is malfunctioning (Y page 208).
If electrical step 0005is malfunctioning, the
step may only partially extend/retract or may
not extend/retract at all. If a malfunction
does occur, you will have to retrac tand lock
electrical step 0005manually before continuing
the journey (Y page 72).
Before passengers ge tout of the vehicle, let
them know that electrical step 0005might not
be extended. Emergency release
! Driving with the step extended may result
in it being damaged.
If the electrical step does not retract
automatically, you will have to push it in and
loc kiti nto place manually before
continuing your journey. 72

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 possible. Note that your vehicle may not
be equipped with all of the described
functions. This also applies to systems and
functions relevant to safety.
Read the information on qualified specialist
workshops (Y page 26). Exterior lighting
Important safety notes
For reasons of safety, we recommend that
you drive with the lights switched on even
during the daytime. There may be differences
in operation due to legal requirements and
voluntary recommendations in some
countries. Lamp failure indicator
The bulb failure indicator is only an aid. You
are responsible for the proper functioning of
the vehicle lighting. Insufficient or non-
functioning vehicle lightin gputs the operating
safety of the vehicle at risk.
For this reason, check the condition and
function of your vehicle's lighting system and,
if necessary, that of the trailer before each
journey.
The bulb failure indicator monitors all of the
exterio rlighting lamps, except the perimeter
lamp and the trailer lighting. If a bulb fails,
either the 0002(Ypage 34) indicator lamp
lights up, or you will see a corresponding
message in the display (Y page 201).
i Depending on the equipment, the bulb
failure indicator can fail for all lamps with
the exceptio nofthe turn signal lamps. Light switch
