The air conditioning is operational while the engine is running and cools the interior air to the temperature set by the operator.

Condensation may drip out from under- neath the vehicle. This is normal and not an indication of a malfunction.

Warning!

If you turn off the cooling function, the vehicle will not be cooled when weather conditions are warm. The windows can fog up more quickly. Window fogging may impair visibility and endanger you and others.

왔 Audio system Audio and telephone, operation

These instructions are intended to help you become familiar with your Mercedes-Benz audio system. They con- tain useful tips and a detailed description of the user functions.

Warning!

In order to avoid distraction which could lead to an accident, the driver should enter system settings with the vehicle at a standstill and operate the system only when road and traffic conditions permit. Always pay full attention to traffic conditions first before operating system controls while driving.

Bear in mind that at a speed of just 30 mph (approximately 50 km/h), your car is covering a distance of 44 feet (approximately 14 m) every second.

Operating safety

Warning!

Any alterations made to electronic components can cause malfunctions.

The radio, amplifier, CD changer*, satellite radio*, and telephone* are interconnected. When one of the components is not opera- tional or has not been removed/replaced properly, the function of other components may be impaired.

This condition might seriously impair the operating safety of your vehicle.

We recommend that you have any service work on electronic components carried out by an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center.

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 operate 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) every second.

General notes The system may not be able to play audio CDs with copy protection. Playing copied CDs may cause malfunctions during playback.

219

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 changer. In certain situations, the CDs can then no longer be ejected and cause damage 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 correspond to the EN 60908 standard. You can therefore only use CDs with a maximum 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.

220

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 damage 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

interference 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

sunlight.

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. Inserting a second CD in the slot with another CD still loaded will cause dam- age 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.
