Operation

Driving instructions

After hard braking, it is advisable to drive 
on for some time, rather than immediately 
park, so that the air stream can cool down 
the brakes faster.

High-performance brake system 
(CL 65 AMG only)

The high-performance brake system is de-
signed to operate under the extremely high 
operating demands required to accommo-
date the performance capabilities of the 
vehicle. The brakes may produce a squeak-
ing-type noise depending on the

vehicle speed

brake force applied

ambient conditions, e.g. temperature 
and humidity

As with any brake system, the wear of indi-
vidual brake system components such as 
brake pads or disks strongly depends on 
your driving style and the conditions under 
which you operate the vehicle. Thus, a driv-
ing style calling for high demand braking 
will cause your vehicle’s brakes to wear 
more quickly.

Warning!

G

If other than recommended brake pads are 

installed, or other than recommended brake 

fluid is used, the braking properties of the 

vehicle can be degraded to an extent that 

safe braking is substantially impaired. This 

could result in an accident.

!

When driving down long and steep 
grades, relieve the load on the brakes 
by shifting into a lower gear to use the 
engine’s braking power. This helps pre-
vent overheating of the brakes and re-
duces brake pad wear.

Warning!

G

New vehicle brake pads and discs, and 

replacement brake pads and discs may take 

several hundred miles of driving until they 

provide optimum braking efficiency. Until 

that time, you may need to use increased 

brake pedal pressure while braking. Please 

be aware of this and adjust your driving and 

braking accordingly during this break-in 

period.

Excessive high demand braking will cause 

correspondingly high brake wear. Please be 

attentive to the brake warning lamp in the 

instrument cluster and brake condition mes-

sages in the multifunction display. Especial-

ly for high performance driving, it is 

important to maintain and have the brake 

system checked regularly.
