guard.

Observe this Operator's Manual.
For safety reasons, Mercedes-Benz recom-
mends that you only use batteries which have
been tested and approved for your vehicle by
Mercedes-Benz. These batteries provide
increased impact protection to prevent vehicle
occupants from suffering acid burns should
the battery be damaged in the event of an
accident.
In order for the battery to achieve the maxi-
mum possible service life, it must always be
sufficiently charged.
Like other batteries, the vehicle battery may
discharge over time if you do not use the vehi-
cle. In this case, have the battery disconnec-
ted at a qualified specialist workshop. You can
also charge the battery with a charger recom-
mended by Mercedes-Benz. Contact a quali-
fied specialist workshop for further informa-
tion.
Have the battery condition of charge checked
more frequently if you use the vehicle mainly
for short trips or if you leave it standing idle
for a lengthy period. Consult a qualified spe-
cialist workshop if you wish to leave your vehi-
cle parked for a long period of time.
Remove the SmartKey if you park the vehicle
and do not require any electrical consumers.
The vehicle will then use very little energy,
thus conserving battery power.
After an interruption to the power supply, e.g.
due to a discharged battery, you must reset
the clock (see the Digital Operator's Manual).
