Genuine Mercedes-Benz parts
H
Environmental note
Daimler AG also supplies reconditioned
assemblies and parts which are of the same
quality
as new parts. For these, the same war-
ranty applies as for new parts.
If you use parts, tyres, or wheels which have
not been approved by Mercedes-Benz, the
operational safety of the vehicle may be jeop-
ardised. Safety relevant systems, e.g. the
brake system, may malfunction. Only use
genuine Mercedes-Benz parts or parts of an
equivalent quality standard. Only use tyres
and wheels that are approved for your type of
vehicle.
Mercedes-Benz checks genuine Mercedes-
Benz parts for:
R
reliability
R
safety
R
suitability
Despite ongoing market research, Mercedes-
Benz is unable to assess other parts.
Mercedes-Benz accepts no responsibility for
the use of such parts in Mercedes-Benz vehi-
cles, even if they have been independently or
officially approved.
In Germany, certain parts are only officially
approved for installation or modification if
they comply with legal requirements. This
also applies to some other countries. All gen-
uine Mercedes-Benz parts meet the approval
requirements. The use of non-approved parts
may invalidate the vehicle's general operating
permit.
This is the case if:
R
it results in a change to the vehicle type
from that for which the vehicle's general
operating permit was granted
R
they pose a possible risk for road users
R
they
adversely affect the emission or noise
levels
Always specify the vehicle identification num-
ber (VIN) when ordering genuine Mercedes-
Benz parts (Y page 414).

Note on electronic systems
Important safety notes
G
WARNING
Modifications to electronic components, their
software as well as wiring could effect their
function and/or the operation of other net-
worked components. This could in particular
also be the case for systems relevant to
safety. They might not function properly any
more and/or jeopardise the operational
safety of the vehicle. There is an increased
risk of an accident and injury.
Do
not attempt to modify the wiring as well as
electronic components or their software.
Always have work on electrical and electronic
components carried out at a qualified special-
ist workshop.
If you modify electronic components, their
software or their wiring, the operating permit
for your vehicle may be rendered invalid.
