tions in thevehicle Operator's Manual. This

sponding sections in thevehicle Operator's Man‐
ual. Under no circumstances does the Supple‐
ment replace the Operator's Manual.
This Supplement describes all models, and
standard and optional equipment foryour vehi‐
cle, as available at the time of going to press.
Country-specific differences are possible. Bear
in mind that your vehicle may not feature all
functions described here. This is also the case

tions.

maintenance work as well any required
repairs carried out at a qualified spe‐
cialist workshop.
&WARNING Risk of accident or injury due
to incorrect modifications on electronic
component parts
Modification of electronic components, their
software or wiring could impair their function
and/or the function of other networked com‐
ponent parts or safety-relevant systems.

tronic component parts or their soft‐
ware.

*NOTE Damage to thevehicle
In thefollowing situations, in particular, there
is a risk of damage to thevehicle:

tinuing your journey, pull over and stop
