* NOTE Battery discharging from using
devices connected to the diagnostics
connection
Using devices at the diagnostics connection
drains the battery.
#
Check the charge level of the battery.
#
If the charge level is low, charge the
battery, e.g. by driving a considerable
distance.
Connecting equipment to the diagnostics con‐
nection can lead to emissions monitoring infor‐
mation being reset, for example. This may lead
to the vehicle failing to meet the requirements of
the next emissions inspection during the main
inspection.

Vehicle registration
Mercedes-Benz may ask its service centres to
carry out technical inspections on certain vehi‐
cles. The quality or safety of the vehicle is
improved as a result of the inspection.
Mercedes-Benz can only inform you about vehi‐
cle checks if Mercedes-Benz has your registra‐
tion data.
It is possible that your vehicle has not yet been
registered in your name in the following cases:
R
if your vehicle was not purchased at an
authorised specialist dealer.

if your vehicle has not yet been examined at
a Mercedes-Benz service centre.
It is advisable to register your vehicle with a
Mercedes-Benz service centre.
Inform Mercedes-Benz as soon as possible
about any change in address or vehicle owner‐
ship. You can do this at a Mercedes-Benz service
centre, for example.
Correct use of the vehicle
If you remove any warning stickers, you or others
could fail to recognise certain dangers. Leave
warning stickers in position.
