Effect
ì Park position
Shift into park position P only
when vehicle is stopped. The
park position is not intended to
serve as a brake when the vehi-
cle is parked. Rather, the driver
should always engage the elec-
tronic parking brake in addition
to shifting into park position P to
secure the vehicle.
If the vehicle’s electrical system
is malfunctioning, the automatic
transmission could remain
locked in park position P.
왘 Have the vehicle checked as
soon as possible by an autho-
rized Mercedes-Benz Center.

start/stop button and open a door, the transmis-
sion will shift to park position P automatically.
Keep in mind that turning off the engine using
