Useful information
These Operating Instructions describe all mod-
els as well as standard and optional equipment
of your vehicle that were available at the time of
going to print. Country-specific variations are
possible. Note that your vehicle may not be fit-
ted with all of the described functions. This also
applies to safety-relevant systems and func-
tions.
Read the information on qualified specialist
workshops: (

Important safety notes
G
WARNING
Operating the integrated information systems
and communications equipment in the vehicle
while driving will distract you from traffic con-
ditions. You could then lose control of the
vehicle. There is a risk of an accident.
Only operate these devices if road traffic con-
ditions permit. If you are unsure about the
surrounding conditions, pull over to a safe
location and make entries only while the vehi-
cle is stationary.
You must observe the legal requirements for the
country in which you are currently driving when
operating the on-board computer.

WARNING
If the instrument cluster has failed or mal-
functioned, you may not recognise function
restrictions relevant to safety. The operating
safety of your vehicle may be impaired. There
is a risk of an accident.
Drive on carefully. Have the vehicle checked
at a qualified specialist workshop immedi-
ately.
The on-board computer only shows messages
and warnings from certain systems. You should
therefore make sure your vehicle is operating
safely at all times. If the operating safety of your
vehicle is impaired, stop the vehicle as soon as
possible, paying attention to road and traffic
conditions. Then contact a qualified specialist
workshop.
The accuracy of the speedometer and odometer
displays is legally prescribed. Determining the
speed is dependent on the wheel size or the
rolling circumference of the wheels. If you
change the wheel size on your vehicle, make
sure it is assigned to the correct wheel size cat-
egory (
Y
page 365). If the assignment changes
without recoding the control units in the vehicle,
the speedometer will not display the speed
accurately. Driving safety systems and driving
systems may then be operationally impaired or
may detect a fault and switch themselves off.
An overview of the instrument cluster can be
found under "Instrument cluster" (
Y
page 36).
