or permanent documentation of tech nical infor‐
mation about theve hicle's operating state, com‐
ponent loads, main tenance requirements and
te ch nical events or faults.
Depending on thete ch nical equipment, thefo l‐
lowing data are stored:
R operating status of sy stem components, such
as fill le vels, tyre pressure or battery status
R malfunctions or faults in impor tant sy stem
components, such as lights or brakes
R system reactions in special driving situations,
such as airbag deployment or the inter vention
of stability control sy stems
R information on events in which theve hicle is
damaged
In cer tain cases, it may be requ ired tostore data
th at wo uld ha veotherwise been temp orar y.This
may be the case if theve hicle has de tected a
malfunction, forex ample.
If yo u use services, such as repair services and
maintenance work,st ored operational data as

re ad out and used. They can be read out by
service network emplo yees, such as workshops
and manufacturers or third parties, such as
breakdown services. The same is true in the case
of wa rranty claims and quality assurance meas‐

In general, there adout is per form ed via the

th at end, these data, in particular information
about component loads, tech nical events, mal‐
functions and other faults may be transmitted
along with theve hicle identification number to
th e manufacturer. In addition, the manufacturer is
subject toproduct liability. Forth is reason, the
manufacturer also uses operational data from the
ve hicle, forex ample, forre calls. These data can
also be used toexamine the cus tomer's warranty
and guarantee claims. Fa
ult memories in theve hicle can be reset by a
service outlet or at your requ est as part of repair
or maintenance work.

at any time.
Depending on theve hicle equipment, this

Obser vethe driving tips (/ page137).
Yo uth ereby make use of the braking ef fect of the
engine and do not ha vetobrake as of tento main‐
tai nth e speed. This relie vesth e load on the
service brake and pr events the brakes from over‐
heating and wearing tooqu ickl y.
Heavy and light loads
If th e brakes ha vebeen subjected toa heavy
load, do not stop theve hicle immediatel y.Drive
on for a short while. The brakes cool down more
qu ickly in the air flow.
If th e brakes ha vebeen used only moderately,
yo u should occasionally test their ef fectiveness.
To do this, brake more firm ly from a higher speed
while pa ying attention tothe traf fic conditions.
The brakes will grip better as a result.
We tro ad sur faces
If yo u ha vebeen driving for a long time in heavy
ra in without braking, there may be a dela yed
re sponse when youfirs t apply the brakes. This
may also occur af ter driving thro ugh a car wash
or deep water.Yo u must depress the brake pedal
more firm ly. Maintain a grea ter dis tance tothe
ve hicle in front.
While paying attention tothe traf fic conditions,
yo u should brake theve hicle firm lyafte r driving
on a wetro ad sur face or thro ugh a car wash. This
heats the brake disks so that they dry more
qu ickl y,which pr otects them against cor rosion.
Limited braking ef fect on salt-treate dro ads:
R a layer of salt on the brake disks or brakepads
can increase braking dis tances considerably,
or braking may happen on only one side
R maintain an especially large safe dis tance to
th eve hicle in front
To remo vethe la yer of salt:
R apply the brakes from time totime, paying
attention totraf fic conditions
R carefully dep ress the brake pedal at the end
of a journey and af terth est art of a new jour‐
ney
Ne w brake dis ksand brakepads
New brakepads and brake disks only reach their
optimal braking ef fect af ter appro ximately
10 0 km.
Un tilthen, compensate forth ere duced braking
ef fect by applying greater pressure tothe brake
pedal. For saf etyre asons, Mercedes-Benz recom‐ mends
that you on lyha ve brakepads and brake
disks which are appr ovedby Mercedes-Benz
ins talled on your vehicle.
Other brake disks or brakepads may compromise
th e saf ety of your vehicle.
Alw aysre place all brake disks and brakepads on
an axle at the same time. Alw aysfit new brake‐
pads when replacing brake disks.

th e traf fic conditions until braking po wer has
been fully restored.
Note s on driving in mountainous areas
Ve hicles with diesel engines: the operating
saf ety of the diesel engine is guaranteed up toan
ele vation of 2,500 m ab ovesea le vel.Yo u may
exc eed this ele vation for a short time, e.g. in
mountainous terrain. Do not drive continuously at
ele vations ab ove2,500 m. Otherwise, you may
damage the diesel engine.
When driving in mountainous areas, no tethat

Information on the permanent limiter
% The permanent limiter is only
available in cer‐
ta in countries.
If yo u wish tolimit theve hicle speed permanently
to a specific value (e.g. for driving in winter tyre
mode), you can set this speed with the perma‐
nent limiter. Yo
u can permanently limit the speed toava lue
between 160 km/h and the maximum permissi‐
ble speed (/ page160).
If yo u accelerate theve hicle using the accelera tor
pedal, a message with thestored speed is shown
in the multifunction display shortly before the set
limit speed is reached.
The permanent limiter remains active even if the
va riable limiter is deactivated. The permanent
limiter does not swit chtopassive mode even dur‐
ing kickdown and the driven speed remains
below the set speed.

s on DSR
DSR supports you when driving downhill. DSR
main tains a set speed foryo u on downhill gradi‐
ents byapplying the brakes as requ ired. Main‐
ta ining the speed is dependent on thero ad sur‐
fa ce conditions and the downhill gradient and
cann ottherefore be guaranteed in all situations.
Obser vethe no tes on driving sy stems and your

Yo u can set the speed tobetween 4 km/h and
18 km/h using the brake and accelerator pedals
or the cruise cont rol le ver.
DSR au tomatically controls in thefo llowing situa‐
