Malfunction
Electrical consumers

age and can no longer supply the conve-
nience functions such as seat ventilation*.

online as soon as on-board voltage is
sufficient.

energy and therefore has only limited oper-
ation. Considerably greater brake pedal
force is required and the stopping distance
is increased.

to do so. Adjust driving to be consis-
tent with reduced braking respon-
siveness.
̈ Notify an authorized Mercedes-Benz
Center.
