The First 1000 Miles (1500 km)

The more cautiously you treat your vehicle during the break-in period, the more satisfied you will be with its performance later on.

Therefore, drive your vehicle during the first 1000 miles (1500 km) at moderate vehicle and engine speeds.

During this period, avoid heavy loads (full throttle driving) and excessive engine speeds.

Avoid accelerating by kickdown. It is not recommended to brake the vehicle by manually shifting to a lower gear. We recommend

that you select positions "3", "2" or "1" only at moderate speeds (for hill driving).

After 1000 miles (1500 km) speeds may be gradually increased to the permissible maximum.

Check Regularly and Before a Long Trip

See last page.

Maintenance

Approximately 30 days or 2 000 miles (2 000 km) prior to the next recommended service, the remaining distance or days are

displayed in the multifunction indicator. See Flexible Service System (FSS) in Index.

We strongly recommend that you have your vehicle serviced by your authorized Mercedes-Benz dealer, in accordance with the

Service Booklet.

Failure to have the vehicle maintained in accordance with the Service Booklet may result in vehicle damage not covered by the

Mercedes-Benz Limited Warranty.

Radio Transmitters

Warning!

Never operate radio transmitters equipped with a built-in or attached antenna (i.e. without being connected to an external

antenna) from inside the vehicle while the engine is running. Doing so could lead to a malfunction of the vehicle's electronic

system, possibly resulting in an accident and personal injury.

Radio transmitters, such as a portable telephone or a citizens band unit should only be used inside the vehicle if they are connected to

an antenna that is installed on the outside of the vehicle.

Refer to the radio transmitter operation instructions regarding use of an external antenna.
