Driving Instructions
Warning!
If you feel a sudden signifi
cant vibration or ride distur
bance, or you suspect that
possible damage to your vehi
cle has occurred, you should
turn on the hazard flashers,
carefully slow down, and drive
with caution to an area which
is a safe distance from the
roadway.
Inspect the tires and under
the vehicle for possible dam
age. If the vehicle or tires
appear unsafe, have it towed
to the nearest Mercedes-Benz
or tire dealer for repairs.
Power Assistance
Warning!
When the engine is not
running, the brake and
steering systems are without
power assistance. Under
these circumstances, a much
greater effort is necessary to
stop or steer the vehicle.
Brakes
Warning!
After driving in heavy rain for
some time without applying
the brakes or through water
deep enough to wet brake
components, the first braking
action may be somewhat re
duced and increased pedal
pressure may be necessary.
Be sure to maintain a safe
distance from vehicles in
front.
Resting your foot on the brake
pedal will cause excessive
and premature wear of the
brake pads.
It can also result in the brakes
overheating thereby signifi
cantly reducing their effective
ness. It may not be possible
to stop the car in sufficient
time to avoid an accident.
The condition of the parking brake
system is checked each time the
car is in the shop for the required
maintenance.
If the parking brake is released
and the brake warning lamp in the
instrument cluster stays on, the
brake fluid level in the reservoir is
too low.
Brake pad wear or a leak in the
system may be the reason for low
brake fluid in the reservoir.
Have the brake system inspected
at an authorized Mercedes-Benz
dealer immediately.
All checks and maintenance work
on the brake system should be
carried out by an authorized
Mercedes-Benz dealer.
Install only brake pads and brake
fluid recommended by Mercedes-
Benz.
Warning!
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.
