the interaction of vehicle systems with electronic
medical aids suc
h as cardiac pacemakers.
In addition, there are components installed in the
vehicle that, regardless of the operating status of
the vehicle, can generate magnetic elds on a par
with permanent magnets. These elds can be
found, for example, in the area around the multi-
media and sound system or also in the area of the
seats, depending on the vehicle equipment.
For this reason, the following can occur in isolated
cases, depending on the aids used:
R
Medical aids malfunctioning
R
Adverse health eects
Observe the notes and warnings of the manufac-
turer of the medical aids; if in doubt, contact the
device manufacturer and/or your doctor. If there
is continuing uncertainty concerning the possibil-
ity of medical aids malfunctioning, Mercedes-
Benz AG recommends using only few electrical
vehicle systems and/or maintaining a distance
from the components.
Plug-in hybrid
When charging the high-voltage battery, keep a
dis
tance of at least an arm's length between the
medical aid and the following components:
R
the power supply equipment
This includes charging stations in the form of a
wallbox or a public charging point, for exam-
ple.
R
vehicle components carrying live voltage
This includes the charging cable and the
charging control box, for example.
Only have repairs and maintenance work in the
area of the following components carried out at a
qualied specialist workshop:
R
vehicle components carrying live voltage
R
transmission aerials
R
multimedia system and sound system
If you have any queries or suggestions, consult a
qualied specialist workshop.
