When charging using a battery charger without a maximum charging voltage, the battery or the on-board electronics may be damaged.
Charging the battery at very low temperatures may shorten the service life of the battery and have a negative effect on starting.
When using a battery charger without a maximum charging voltage, the battery or the vehicle electronics may be damaged.
A battery generates hydrogen gas during the charging process. If there is a short circuit or sparks start to form, there is a danger of the hydrogen gas igniting.
During the charging process and starting assistance, the battery may release an explosive gas mixture.
If the indicator/warning lamps in the instrument cluster do not light up at low temperatures, it is very likely that the discharged battery has frozen.
A discharged battery may freeze at temperatures slightly above or below freezing point.
During starting assistance or battery charging, battery gas may be released.
The service life of a battery that has been thawed may be dramatically shortened.
It is recommended that you have a thawed battery checked at a qualified specialist workshop.
All vehicles
Numerous or extended attempts to start the engine may damage the catalytic converter due to non-combusted fuel.
Only use undamaged jump leads/charging cables with a sufficient cross-section and insulated terminal clamps.
Non-insulated parts of the terminal clamps must not come into contact with other metal parts while the jump lead/charging cable is connected to the battery/jump-start connection point.
The jump lead/charging cable must not come into contact with any parts which may move when the engine is running.
Always make sure that neither you nor the battery is electrostatically charged.
Keep away from fire and naked flames.
Do not lean over the battery.
When charging: only use battery chargers tested and approved by Mercedes-Benz and read the battery charger's operating instructions before charging the battery.
Starting assistance may only be provided using batteries with a nominal voltage of 12 V.
The vehicles must not touch.
Petrol engine: Only accept starting assistance if the engine and exhaust system are cold.
When the starting assistance/charging process is complete:
You can obtain further information on starting assistance at any qualified specialist workshop.
If you manipulate or bridge a faulty fuse or if you replace it with a fuse with a higher amperage, the electric line could be overloaded.
This could result in a fire.
Incorrect fuses may cause damage to electrical components or systems.
Blown fuses must be replaced with fuses of the same rating, which you can recognise by the colour and fuse rating. The fuse ratings are listed in the fuse assignment diagram.
Fuse assignment diagram: on the fuse box in the boot More.
Moisture may cause damage to the electrical system or cause it to malfunction.
If the newly inserted fuse also blows, have the cause traced and rectified at a qualified specialist workshop, e.g. a Mercedes-Benz Service Centre.
The vehicle is secured against rolling away.
All electrical consumers are switched off.
The ignition is switched off.
A flat tyre severely affects the driving characteristics as well as the steering and braking of the vehicle.
Tyres without run-flat characteristics:
Tyres with run-flat characteristics:
Vehicles with MOExtended tyres: it is possible to continue the journey for a short period of time. Make sure you observe the notes on MOExtended tyres (run-flat tyres) More.
Vehicles with a TIREFIT kit: you can repair the tyre so that it is possible to continue the journey for a short period of time. To do this, use the TIREFIT kit More.
Vehicles with a Mercedes-Benz emergency call system: in the event of a flat tyre, consult the Mercedes-Benz emergency call system Customer Assistance Centre.
Change the wheel More.
The emergency spare wheel is only available in certain countries.
Apart from some country-specific variants, vehicles are not equipped with a tyre-change tool kit. For more information on which tyre-changing tools are required and approved for performing a wheel change on your vehicle, consult a qualified specialist workshop.
