You could jeopardise the operating safety of your
vehicle if you use parts, tyres and wheels as well
as accessories relevant to safety which have not
been approved by Mercedes-Benz. Safety-relevant
systems, e.g. the brake system, may malfunction.
Only use Mercedes-Benz GenuineParts or parts of
equal quality. Only use tyres, wheels and acces-
sory parts that have been specifically approved
for your vehicle model.
Mercedes-Benz tests original parts and conver-
sion parts and accessory parts that have been
specifically approved for your vehicle model for
their reliability, safety and suitability. Despite
ongoing market research, Mercedes-Benz is
unable to assess other parts. Mercedes-Benz
therefore accepts no responsibility for the use of
such parts in Mercedes-Benz vehicles, even if
they have been officially approved or independ-
ently approved by a testing centre.
Certain parts are only officially approved for
installation or modification if they comply with
legal requirements. All Mercedes-Benz Genuine-
Parts meet the approval requirements. The use of
non-approved parts may invalidate the vehicle's
general operating permit.
This is the case in the following situations:
R
The vehicle type is different from that for
which the vehicle's general operating permit
was granted.
R
Other road users could be endangered.
R
The noise level gets worse.
Always specify the vehicle identification number
(VIN) (

Benz GenuineParts.
Touch-sensitive controls
In addition to conventional switches and buttons,
your vehicle is equipped with touch-sensitive con-
trols.
