approximately two minutes after you

Note on driving with the SBC
앫
Following extended periods of only
minor loads to your brake system, you
should occasionally apply the brakes
when traveling at high speeds. This
improves the grip of the brake pads.
앫
After driving on wet or snow-covered
roads, you should apply your brakes
firmly before parking your vehicle. This
produces heat which serves to dry the
brake disks and help prevent corro-
sion.
앫
On long and steep grades, shift to a
lower gear (gear range
1
,
2
, or
3
) to
prevent the brakes from overheating
and to reduce brake wear.
앫
After hard braking, it is advisable to
drive on for some time so that the air
stream will cool down the brakes fast-
er.
앫
Only Mercedes-Benz approved compo-
nents (e.g. brake pads) should be
installed on your vehicle. Brake pads
not approved by Mercedes-Benz may
impair the safety of your vehicle.
Warning!
G
Have brake pad replacement and other work
on the SBC brake system carried out by
qualified technicians only. Contact an
authorized Mercedes-Benz Center for fur-
ther information. The SBC brake system
must be deactivated prior to working on the
system. High pressure is intermittently built
up in the system as part of its automatic
self-test. In addition, the system is automat-
ically activated when the vehicle is unlocked
by SmartKey, when the driver or passenger
door is opened, when the starter switch is
turned to position
1
, when the brake pedal
is depressed or when the parking brake is
released. Failure to deactivate the system
prior to maintenance will cause brake pis-
tons to extend and brake fluid to leak, which
may result in injuries (contusions and acid
burns). Extended brake pistons may also
cause injury.
Warning!
G
Be very careful not to endanger other road
users when you apply the brakes.
