Immediately after pulling away, test the
service and parking brakes. When do-
ing this, observe the traffic situation.
Ensure that the vehicle does not pull to
the left or right and that it comes safely
to a halt.
Shifting with preselection
Shifting a gear with preselection means
that the gear you wish to select is prese-
lected using the gear lever or the half-gear
rocker and the gear change is initiated by
depressing the clutch pedal.
Risk of accident
G
If the vehicle pulls to the left or right during
the brake test or it does not come to a halt
safely, there is a danger that the brakes
could fail and you could cause an accident.
If continuing your journey is not possible,
park the vehicle and have it recovered by a
breakdown service. If it is possible to contin-
ue your journey, drive at a suitable speed to
a specialist workshop and have the brake
system checked.
DaimlerChrysler recommends that you visit
a Mercedes-Benz Service Centre as it has
the necessary specialist knowledge and
tools for the work required. For work rele-
vant to safety and work on safety-related
systems in particular, it is essential that
maintenance work is carried out at a quali-
fied specialist workshop.
i
If you choose the direct gearshift op-
tion, block changing with the vehicle in
motion is limited to
a half-gear using the half-gear rock-
er and
a full gear using the gear lever in
conjunction with the applied func-
tion button.
