1 Introduction
1.9
Operational safety
a
WARNING
Work incorrectly carried out on equipment and its
software can prevent this equipment from working.
Since the electronic systems are networked, this can
also affect systems that have not been modified.
Malfunctions in the electronic systems can seriously
jeopardize the operational safety of the vehicle. In
this case, no warranty can be provided.
Have work on or modifications to electronic compo-
nents carried out at a qualified specialist workshop
which has the necessary expertise and tools to carry
out the work required. Mercedes-Benz recommends
that you use a Mercedes-Benz Metris Service Center
for this purpose.
In particular, work relevant to safety or on safety-re-
lated systems must be carried out at a qualified
specialist workshop.
Some of the safety systems only function when the
engine is running. For this reason, do not switch
off the engine when the vehicle is in motion. If the
engine is switched off while driving, this can have
negative effects on the brake system, driving stabil-
ity and handling characteristics. This can result in
serious injury or death.
