P ractical Hints
First Aid Kit
The first aid kit is stowed in a covered
recess in the hat shelf at the rear. To
open the lid, push button (1).
Luggage or Ski Racks
The only type of rack to be mounted
on the roof we recommend is the drip
rail mounted type which has no other
supports (suction cups or legs) to
support the rack on the roof. Such
supports may lead to marring of the
paint or even denting of the roof if
excessive weight is placed on the
rack. Your MERCEDES-BENZ dealer
can give further advice.
Spare Wheel, Jack, Vehicle Tool Kit
Spare wheel (1), jack (2) and vehicle
tool kit are accommodated in a trough
below the foldable trunk floor (3).
Prior to lifting up the cover, fold back
mats and engage strap (4) in trunk lid.
Note:
The jack is designed exclusively for
jacking up the vehicle at the jack
tubes provided on either side of the
vehicle. Jack stands must be used
when working under the vehicle.
