Coasting the vehicle, or driving for any 
other reason with gear selector lever 
in N can result in transmission damage 
that is not covered by the 
Mercedes-Benz Limited Warranty.
Warning!
G
Getting out of your vehicle with the gear se-
lector lever not fully engaged in position P is 
dangerous. Also, position P alone is not in-
tended to or capable of preventing your ve-
hicle from moving, possibly hitting people or 
objects.
Always set the parking brake in addition to 
shifting to position P (
page 57).
When parked on an incline, turn the front 
wheels towards the road curb.
Do not park this vehicle in areas where com-
bustible materials such as grass, hay or 
leaves can come into contact with the hot 
exhaust system, as these materials could be 
ignited and cause a vehicle fire.
Warning!
G
When leaving the vehicle, always remove the 
SmartKey from the starter switch, take it 
with you, and lock the vehicle. Do not leave 
children unattended in the vehicle, or with 
access to an unlocked vehicle. Children 
could move the gear selector lever from 
position P, which could result in an accident 
and/or serious personal injury.
