24-GHz radar sensor system* (coun-
try overview)
The 24 GHz radar sensor system requires
separate approval for each country. When
you are driving in a country in which the radar
sensor system is not approved, you must
deactivate the system using the on-board
computer (
Y
page 243). The current country
overview can be obtained from a Mercedes-
Benz Service Centre.
Vehicles with COMAND and navigation
system*: the radar sensor system is deacti-
vated automatically near radio telescope
facilities. If Distronic Plus*, Parking Guid-
ance*, Blind Spot Assist* or PRE-SAFE
®
Brake* are activated at this point, a corre-
sponding warning will appear in the multi-
function display to tell you that the radar sen-
sor system is being switched off. BAS
PLUS* is also no longer available. If the deac-
tivation does not occur automatically, you
must deactivate the radar sensor system
using the on-board computer (
Y
page 243).
Vehicles without COMAND and naviga-
tion system* and vehicles for Australia:
deactivate the radar sensor system in the on-
board computer when you are near a radio
telescope facility (
Y
page 243).
