Page: 387 / 404

Useful information
These Operating Instructions describe all mod-
els as well as standard and optional equipment
of your vehicle that were available at the time of
going to print. Country-specific variations are
possible. Note that your vehicle may not be fit-
ted with all of the described functions. This also
applies to safety-relevant systems and func-
tions.

Vehicle electronics
Working on the engine electronics
! Only have work carried out on the engine
electronics and its associated parts, such as
control units, sensors, actuating components
and connector leads, at a qualified specialist
workshop. Vehicle components may other-
wise wear more quickly and the vehicle's
operating permit may be invalidated.
Fitting electrical or electronic equip-
ment
Increased levels of electromagnetic radiation
could pose a risk to your health and the health of
others. Using an exterior aerial takes into
account current scientific discussions relating
to the possible health hazards that may result
from electromagnetic fields. Only have the exte-
rior aerial installed by a qualified specialist work-
shop.
If you use electric or electronic devices in the
car, the conditions named below must be met.
The general operating permit may otherwise be
invalidated.
Electrical and electronic devices may not only
reduce comfort but also the operating safety of
the vehicle. If you retrofit such devices, their
electromagnetic compatibility must be checked
and verified.
If these devices are linked to functions associ-
ated with resistance to interference, they must
have type approval. This applies to the device or
its interfaces to the vehicle electronics, e.g.
charging brackets.
The type approval document must adhere to
either Directive 72/245/EEC or Regulation
ECE-R 10, each according to the currently appli-
cable version. The type-approved device must
bear the e/E mark. The e/E mark can be
obtained from the equipment manufacturer or
an authorised testing centre.
Devices not linked to functions associated with
resistance to interference do not require type
approval. However, these devices must have a
declaration of compliance for the maintenance
of certain limiting values, according to Directive
89/336/EEC or Directive 1995/5/EC. These
limiting values are defined in Appendix I of the
currently valid version of the Directive
72/245/EEC.
A telephone or two-way radio to be installed in
the vehicle must be approved. You can obtain
further information from any Mercedes-Benz
Service Centre.
When using mobile phones and two-way radios,
Mercedes-Benz recommends connection to an
approved exterior aerial. This is the only way to
ensure optimal reception quality in the vehicle
and to minimise potential interference between
the vehicle electronics and mobile phones or
two-way radios.
The transmission output of the mobile phone or
two-way radio may not exceed the following
maximum transmission output (PEAK):

mission output
