Safety precautions
Warning!
The single CD player and the CD changer* are Class 1 laser products. There is a danger of invisible laser radiation if the housing is opened or damaged. Do not open the housing. The single CD player and the CD changer* do not contain any parts that can be serviced by the user. For safety reasons, have any service work which may be necessary performed only by qualified personnel.
Controls in detail Audio system
Warning!
In order to avoid distraction which could lead to an accident, the driver should insert CDs with the vehicle at a standstill and oper- ate the audio system only if permitted by road, weather and traffic conditions. Bear in mind that at a speed of just 30 mph (approximately 50 km/h), your car covers a distance of 44 feet (approximately 14 m) ev- ery second.
General notes The system may not be able to play audio CDs with copy protection. Playing copied CDs may cause malfunc- tions during playback.
213
Controls in detail Audio system
If you affix stickers to the CDs, they can become warped due to the heat that develops in the CD drive or CD chang- er. In certain situations, the CDs can then no longer be ejected and cause dam- age to the drive. Such damage is not covered by the Mercedes-Benz Limited Warranty.
Your CD drive or CD changer has been designed to play CDs which corre- spond to the EN 60908 standard. You can therefore only use CDs with a max- imum thickness of 1.3 mm. If you insert thicker data carriers, e.g. ones that have data on both sides (one side with DVD data, the other side with audio data), they cannot be ejected and will damage the drive.
214
Do not use CDs with an eight cm diameter, not even with a CD adapter. Attempting to play CDs with an eight cm diameter or playing such CDs with an adapter may cause damage to the CD drive. Such dam- age is not covered by the Mercedes-Benz Limited Warranty. Should excessively high or low tempera- tures occur while in CD changer mode*, CD TEMP will appear in the display, and the CD will be muted until the temperature has reached an acceptable level for the system to continue operation. The single CD player and the CD changer* play audio CDs.
Tips on handling CDs 앫 Handle CDs carefully to prevent inter-
ference during playback.
앫 Avoid scratches, fingerprints and dust
on the CDs.
앫 Do not write on CDs or apply any labels
or other material to them.
앫 Clean CDs from time to time with a
commercially available cleaning cloth. Never wipe the CD in a circular motion; instead, wipe it in a straight line start- ing in the center and moving outward. Do not use solvents, anti-static sprays, etc. for cleaning.
앫 Replace the CD in its case after use. 앫 Protect CDs from heat and direct sun-
light.
Operating the single CD player in the audio system unit
Loading a CD The single CD player in the audio system unit has capacity for one CD. The CD slot for loading the drive is located underneath the soft keys. 왘 Make sure the system is switched on. 왘 Insert CD into CD slot. The label side of
the CD must face upwards. The system automatically pulls the CD into the CD slot. The audio CD begins to play.
If a CD is already loaded, it must be ejected before inserting a new CD. In- serting a second CD in the slot with an- other CD still loaded will cause damage to the CD drive not covered by the Mercedes-Benz Limited Warranty.
If a CD has been inserted incorrectly or cannot be read, WRONG CD0 will appear in the display.
Ejecting a CD 왘 Make sure the system is switched on. 왘 Press EJECT button.
The system ejects the CD. NO CD will appear in the display. 왘 Remove CD from slot.

왔 Driving systems The driving system of your vehicle is described on the following pages: 앫 Cruise control, with which the vehicle
can maintain a preset speed
For information on the BAS, ABS and ESP driving systems, see “Driving safety sys- tems” (컄 page 81).
Cruise control
Cruise control automatically maintains the speed you set for your vehicle. Use of cruise control is recommended for driving at a constant speed for extended periods of time. You can set or resume cruise control at any speed over 20 mph (30 km/h). The cruise control function is operated by means of the cruise control lever. The cruise control lever is the uppermost lever on the left-hand side of the steering column.
Controls in detail Driving systems
Warning!
Cruise control is a convenience system designed to assist the driver during vehicle operation. The driver is and must remain at all times responsible for the vehicle speed and for safe brake operation.
Only use cruise control if the road, the traffic and weather conditions make it advisable to travel at a steady speed. 앫 The use of cruise control can be danger- ous on winding roads or in heavy traffic because conditions do not allow safe driving at a steady speed.
앫 The use of cruise control can be danger- ous on slippery roads. Rapid changes in tire traction can result in wheel spin and loss of control.
앫 Deactivate cruise control when driving
in fog.
The “Resume” function should only be oper- ated if the driver is fully aware of the previ- ously set speed and wishes to resume this particular preset speed.

1 Sets current or higher speed 2 Sets current or lower speed 3 Cancels cruise control 4 Resumes at last set speed
Setting current speed 왘 Accelerate or decelerate to the desired
speed.
왘 Briefly lift 1 or depress 2 the cruise
control lever. The current speed is set.
왘 Remove your foot from the accelerator
pedal. Cruise control is activated.
248
On uphill or downhill grades, cruise control may not be able to maintain the set speed. Once the grade eases, the set speed will be resumed.
Canceling cruise control There are several ways to cancel cruise control: 왘 Step on the brake pedal.
Cruise control is canceled. The last speed set is stored for later use.
or 왘 Briefly push the cruise control lever to
position 3. Cruise control is canceled. The last speed set is stored for later use.
Vehicles with automatic transmission: Moving the gear selector lever to position N while driving also cancels cruise control. However, the gear se- lector lever should not be moved to position N while driving, except to coast when the vehicle is in danger of skidding (e.g. on icy roads).
Vehicles with manual transmission: The set cruise controlled speed is switched off when declutching exceeds four seconds during downshifting a gear.
The last stored speed is canceled when you turn off the engine.
Setting a higher speed 왘 Lift cruise control lever to position 1 and hold it up until the desired speed is reached.
왘 Release cruise control lever.
The new speed is set.
Depressing the accelerator pedal does not deactivate cruise control. After brief acceleration (e.g. for passing), cruise control will resume the last speed set.
Setting a lower speed 왘 Depress cruise control lever to
position 2 and hold it down until the desired speed is reached.
왘 Release cruise control lever.
The new speed is set.
Vehicles with automatic transmission: When you use the cruise control lever to decelerate, the transmission will automatically downshift if the engine’s braking power does not brake the vehicle sufficiently.
Fine adjustment in 1 mph (Canada: 1 km/h) increments
