Condensation may drip out from under-
neath the vehicle. This is normal and
not an indication of a malfunction.

If the air conditioning cannot be turned
on again, this indicates that the air
conditioning is losing refrigerant. The
compressor has turned itself off.
Have the air conditioning checked at
the nearest authorized Mercedes-Benz
Center.
