WARNING Risk of injury if the maximum
roof load is exceeded
When you load the roof, the center of gravity
of the vehicle rises and the usual driving
characteristics as well as the steering and
braking characteristics change. During cor‐
nering, the vehicle tilts more strongly and
may react more sluggishly to steering move‐
ments.
If you exceed the maximum roof load, the
driving characteristics, as well as the steer‐
ing and braking characteristics, will be
greatly impaired.
#
Always comply with the maximum roof
load and adjust your driving style.
You will find information on the maximum roof
load in the "Technical data" section.
*
NOTE Vehicle damage from non-
approved roof racks
The vehicle could be damaged by roof racks
which have not been tested and approved by
Mercedes-Benz.
#
Only use roof racks tested and
approved by Mercedes-Benz.
#
Depending on the vehicle equipment,
ensure that when the roof rack is instal‐
led:
R
The sliding sunroof can be fully
raised.
R
The trunk lid can be fully opened.
#
Position the load on the roof rack in
such a way that the vehicle will not sus‐
tain damage even when it is in motion.
*
NOTE Damage to the panoramic sliding
sunroof when a roof rack is fitted
The panoramic sliding sunroof may be dam‐
aged by the roof rack if you attempt to open
it when the roof rack is fitted.

roof if a roof rack is fitted.
