Preface Dear reader, This Introduction into Service Manual presents the model refinement of the A-Class of model series 169 and the model refinement of the B-Class of model series 245. The purpose of this brochure is to acquaint you with the technical highlights of these vehicles in advance of their market launch. This brochure is intended to provide information for people employed in service, maintenance and repair as well as for aftersales staff. It is assumed here that the reader is already familiar with the Mercedes-Benz model series currently on the market. In terms of the contents, the emphasis in this Introduction into Service Manual is on presenting new and modified components and systems. This Introduction into Service Manual is not intended as an aid for repairs or for the diagnosis of technical problems. For such needs, more extensive information is available in the Workshop Information System (WIS) and in the Diagnosis Assistance System (DAS).
WIS is updated monthly. Therefore, the information available there reflects the latest technical status of our vehicles. The Introduction into Service Manual presents initial information relating to the refined A-Class and B-Class models of model series 169 and 245 and, as such, is not stored in WIS. The contents of this brochure are not updated. No provision is made for supplements. We will publicize modifications and new features in the relevant WIS documents. The information presented in this Introduction into Service Manual may therefore differ from the more up-to-date information found in WIS. All information relating to technical data, equipment and options is valid as of the copy deadline in April 2008 and may therefore differ from the current production configuration.

i Note Information about the vehicles and about operating the vehicle functions can also be found in the interactive owner's manual on the Internet at: www.mercedes-benz.de/betriebsanleitung

Brief description Dimensional concept
w e i v r e v O
With the model refinement, the vehicle length, the vehicle width and the overhangs of the A-Class have changed due to the new design of the bumper covers and the enlargement of the outside mirrors. On the refined B-Class models, this has resulted in a change to the vehicle length, vehicle width and rear overhang. The following tables show a selection of the dimensions affected by these changes.

Exterior Front view of A-Class The stylistic features at the front of the vehicle mean that the individual model lines are now much more clearly differentiated than before. Whereas the d esign of the radiator grille and the chrome applications were the main differentiating features on the previous models, the design of the air inlets in the bumper cover also varies on the new A-Class. On the basic equipment model and the ELEGANCE line, a horizontal fin in the vehicle color runs through the center of the air inlet in the bumper, giving the vehicle a wider appearance. The new bumper cover clearly differentiates the AVANTGARDE line from the two other equipment variants. On the AVANTGARDE line, the pointed shape of the front section is strongly emphasized by the slanted dividing bars of the bumper cover.
P00.10-4440-00
Front view of standard vehicle
On the basic equipment model, the radiator grille is a grained black color with high-gloss black trim strips, whereas on the ELEGANCE line it is atlas gray with chrome applications. On the AVANTGARDE line it is iridium silver in color and also features chrome applications. On vehicles with basic equipment that are fitted with front fog lamps, the lamps are framed by a black ring. On ELEGANCE and AVANTGARDE vehicles with front fog lamps, the ring is chrome-plated. The trim strip concept is based on that of model series 204. The rub strips are no longer installed. Instead, the ELEGANCE and AVANTGARDE lines feature all-round chrome applications integrated into the bumper covers. On the basic equipment model, the chrome trim strip is missing from the respective recesses in the bumper cover.

Exterior Rear view of A-Class The design measures implemented at the rear end are intended to make the vehicle appear smaller in height than it actually is. The rear lamps therefore have smaller vertical dimensions than those of the predecessor model and the shiny cover lenses feature a new red-white-red color pattern. On the ELEGANCE and AVANTGARDE lines, the effect of the redesigned rear lamps is emphasized by trim overlays in a reflector design in the bumper. The handle strip of the rear-end door has been redesigned in combination with the revamped release handle. On the basic equipment model, the handle strip is grained black in color and on the ELEGANCE and AVANTGARDE lines it features a chrome design.
The bumper surfaces have been reshaped to make the refined A-Class model appear to sit low and wide on the road. With a black insert in the bumper, the AVANTGARDE line has an even sportier edge.
e l c i h e v l l a r e v O
The new antenna on the roof has been shortened and is now suitable for use in automatic car wash facilities.

Exterior Side view of A-Class On the side of the vehicle, the previous combination of rub strips with chrome inserts has been replaced on the ELEGANCE and AVANTGARDE lines with chrome strips. The logo indicating the equipment line has been adopted from model series 204 and is located on the mirror triangle. The basic equipment model has been significantly improved by the addition of outside mirror housings in the vehicle color with larger mirror surfaces and door handles that are also painted in the vehicle color.
The design of the light alloy wheels has been revised and 16" light alloy wheels are now the entry-level version on the A-Class. The basic equipment model features 15" steel wheels with new hubcaps in a 10-hole design. The ELEGANCE line is available with 16" light alloy wheels in a 10-double-spoke design and the AVANTGARDE line is available with 16" light alloy wheels in a 5-spoke design. Light alloy wheels in a 7-spoke design can be ordered as special equipment for any of the vehicles regardless of the basic equipment or line. The range of 17" and 18" light alloy wheels on offer is unchanged. All of the light alloy wheels for the A-Class are painted in titanium silver.

Exterior Front view of B-Class The front view of the B-Class has been redesigned with a three-slat radiator grille featuring chrome applications. On the standard version, the slats of the radiator grille are atlas gray in color, whereas they are matt brilliant silver on vehicles with the chrome package or sport package. The air inlets in the bumper cover now feature an even more distinctive appearance. The separation line between the engine hood and bumper cover has been redesigned to be more wellbalanced.
On vehicles with front fog lamps, the lamps are framed by chrome rings. The chrome ring also features a horizontal fin with a chrome edge on vehicles with the sport package equipment.
e l c i h e v l l a r e v O
In addition, chrome applications are integrated into the bumper cover on vehicles with the chrome package and sport package equipment variants. On the standard version, the chrome trim strip is missing from the respective recesses in the bumper cover.

Interior General
A-Class
The interior of the A-Class and B-Class has been redesigned as part of the model refinement to further increase the perception of quality and to tighten up the linear design. The following changes have been made to achieve this new appearance on the two models:
On the redesigned A-Class, the previous upholstery materials have been replaced by the "Mechelen" and "Namur" upholstery fabrics on vehicles with basic equipment. The ELEGANCE and AVANTGARDE lines are equipped with the combination of ARTICO man-made leather and "Bastogne" material. On vehicles with the sport seat special equipment, the combination of ARTICO man-made leather and "Zandvoort" material is available. A leather interior is only available with the comfort package special equipment and is not available for vehicles equipped as standard. The AVANTGARDE line features trim in smoke silver aluminum with an obliquely brushed surface.

Maintenance Extended maintenance strategy for A-Class and B-Class Both workshops and the customer will benefit from the extended maintenance scopes from the very first kilometer driven. By making maintenance less complicated and introducing the basic service which covers the technically essential items, workshops are able to offer maintenance that is more cost-efficient and competitive without compromising the usual Mercedes-Benz service quality. Previously, the maintenance scopes alternated between the minor service (Service A) and the major service (Service B). These services have now been classified as Basic service A and B respectively, covering the technically essential items. Basic services A and B always alternate (fixed interval of every 25,000 km/ 1 year) and only include the technically essential service items. A PLUS package which includes further checks and maintenance items is available additionally.
Digital Service Booklet (DSB) All service, body and major assembly operations are documented in a central database using the Digital Service Booklet (DSB). The customer receives a service report which he/she stores in the service booklet.
i Note about DSB For further information about the DSB, see the brochure "ASSYST PLUS Maintenance, Extended Maintenance Strategy for Model Series as of Modification Year 2008". Order no.: 6516 1355 02 This brochure can be ordered from the GSP/OI Shop.
PLUS package: • • • • • • •
Check windshield washer system Check headlamp cleaning system Check tire pressure Check expiration date of tire repair kit Inspect wiper blades Check trunk illumination Check indicator lamps in instrument cluster and interior compartment • Check headlamp adjustment This PLUS package is a customer option.
Maintenance interval The kilometer intervals are adapted to market-specific requirements. The maximum maintenance interval is 25,000 km or one year.
Mileage-based servicing ASSYST PLUS calculates in mileage-based servicing mode when the kilometer interval for the engine oil is reached before the time interval. Example of mileage-based servicing:
ServicePackagePricingSystem (SPPS) The aftersales system is used to work out and display the necessary maintenance scopes. The additional operations that are due as well as the duration and cost of the service can be determined by entering the workshop code.

• Engine oil interval 25,000 km/ 365 days (1 year) • Driving behavior of customer: 120 km/ day • 25,000 km : 120 km ≈ 208 days ASSYST PLUS now calculates in mileage-based servicing mode because the kilometer interval for the engine oil of 25,000 km is reached before a year has passed.

Maintenance Time-based servicing ASSYST PLUS calculates in time-based servicing mode when the time interval for the engine oil is reached before the kilometer interval. Example of time-based servicing: • Engine oil interval 25,000 km/ 365 days (1 year) • Driving behavior of customer: 50 km/ day • 25,000 km : 50 km ≈ 500 days
i Note The indicator for remaining distance or time in the display may switch between kilometers and time depending on the driving behavior of the customer.

Natural gas drive Bivalent drive system
Advantages
The B 170 NGT BlueEFFICIENCY is the first compact model from Mercedes-Benz with a bivalent natural gas drive, code (924). This vehicle can either be operated with CNG (Compressed Natural Gas) or premium gasoline.
The main advantage of the CNG system is that the CO2 emissions are 20% lower than those of comparable gasoline powered vehicles. With a consumption of 4.9 kg of natural gas per 100 km, the B 170 NGT BlueEFFICIENCY with manual transmission emits approximately 135 g of CO2 per kilometer. The fuel costs are lower than on a comparable gasoline vehicle.
With its Natural Gas Technology (NGT), Mercedes-Benz provides its customers with the option of using either "H-gas" with a high gross calorifi c value or "L-gas" with a low gross calorific value for natural gas operation depending on availability. LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) may not be used in this model.
n i a r t e v i r D
i Note The B 170 NGT BlueEFFICIENCY can also be fueled with biogas (biomethane) that has been processed appropriately.

Natural gas drive Natural gas
Components of natural gas drive
CNG (Compressed Natural Gas) is a primary energy source which can be used as a fuel without further chemical processing. The natural gas is stored in gas cylinders made of a plastic composite material at a nominal pressure of up to 200 bar. The gas cylinders are filled via a filling connection located beside the gasoline tank filler neck behind the fuel filler flap.
The following components have been added to engine 266.960 and the fuel system:
Natural gas is classified according to its gross calorific value into "H-gas" (H=High) with a high proportion of methane (89-98%) and "L-gas" (L=Low) with a low proportion of methane (approx. 85%). • H-gas has a gross calorific value of over 11 kWh/m 3 • L-gas has a gross calorific value of approx. 9.5 kWh/m 3
n i a r t e v i r D
• CNG control unit • Filler connection for natural gas, located behind the fuel filler flap • 5 gas cylinders located in the underfloor area, each equipped with a gas cylinder shutoff valve • Gas pressure regulator unit with a gas safety shutoff valve and gas high-pressure sensor, which reduces the system high-pressure of approx. 200 bar to the system low-pressure of approx. 6.5 bar. • Low-pressure gas shutoff valve in the gas line to the gas distribution rail • Gas distribution rail with one gas injection valve per cylinder • Gas low pressure sensor • Gas temperature sensor
Due to the differences in energy content, operating the vehicle on H-gas increases the range by up to 20% compared to operation with L-gas. • Natural gas is measured in kilograms. One kilogram of natural gas provides about the same gross calorific value as 1.5 liters of gasoline. • There is a cost benefit compared to gasoline and diesel fuel because the price of natural gas is lower. Some private subsidies from the gas industry and public sponsorship programs are available to assist the buyer when purchasing a natural gas vehicle. Natural gas is not the same as liquefied petroleum gas. Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) is a refined product. It occurs during the distillation of crude oil and, in contrast to CNG, is heavier than air. It collects on the ground and is more volatile than CNG. Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) may not be used in the B 170 NGT BlueEFFICIENCY.
i Note Only qualified staff may perform work on the gas system. After every repair, every time components are replaced and in the event of accidents affecting the gas system, a gas system check (GAP) must be performed. A gas system check must be performed every two years and is carried out at the same time as the main inspection (HU). If an unscheduled gas system check is performed but, at the time of the main inspection, the unscheduled gas system check was over 12 months ago, then the gas system check must be repeated again along with the main inspection. The gas system check may only be performed by qualified, specialist personnel who have successfully completed a training course.

n i a r t e v i r D
Natural gas drive Function The actuation signals for the fuel injection valves are transferred from the ME-SFI [ME] control unit to the CNG control unit via direct lines. This control unit then actuates the fuel injection valves or the gas injection valves directly. The ME-SFI [ME] control unit calculates the valve opening point and valve opening duration individually for each of the fuel injection valves and each of the gas injection valves. Data is continuously exchanged between the ME-SFI [ME] control unit and the CNG control unit via the drivetrain sensor CAN (CAN I). Each time gas refueling is detected, the quality of the new gas is determined by the mixture adaptation function. The potential range of the vehicle is heavily dependent on the quality of the gas. The CNG control unit detects that the vehicle has been refueled based on the pressure difference (before and after refueling). During engine start, the vehicle briefly switches to gasoline operation – even when set to gas operation mode. Depending on certain variables, e.g. engine operating temperature, the vehicle operates on gasoline until the operating temperature is reached. This operating condition can last from several seconds up to several minutes. If the temperature in the gas distributor remains permanently below -15 °C at extremely low outside temperatures, the vehicle does not switch to gas operation mode.
i Note There must always be sufficient gasoline in the tank to enable the vehicle to be started.
Safety shutoff A safety shutoff can be triggered by a system fault or a crash signal. If a fault in the natural gas system is detected, the system may be shut off for safety reasons. The system can then only be reactivated by erasing the fault using DAS. The natural gas and gasoline injection system is shut off by a crash signal. The gasoline injection system will be operational for the next engine start if the necessary functional requirements can be met. The natural gas system can only be reactivated via DAS after a crash signal.
Changing operating mode The driver can set the desired operating mode, gasoline or natural gas operation, on the multifunction display of the instrument cluster using the multifunction steering wheel. It is always possible to switch between the two operating modes if there is sufficient fuel.

Natural gas drive Natural gas system In addition to the conventional fuel tank, five gas cylinders made of a plastic composite material are installed in the vehicle. Two of these are l ocated in the vehicle floor underneath the front passenger seat and the three others are located in the underfloor area at the rear of the vehicle.
The five gas cylinders can hold a total volume of 100 l when filled with H-gas. This corresponds to a capacity of approx. 16 kg of H-gas at a pressure of 200 bar and a gas temperature of 15 °C. By installing the gas cylinders in the underfloor area, the versatility of the vehicle and the space available are almost completely unaffected. Only the lower level of the adjustable load compartment floor is no longer available for use.

Natural gas drive
The gas cylinders must be replaced after 20 years at the latest. The gas system is regularly inspected as part of the gas system check (GAP) during the main inspection (HU) (e.g. visual inspection of tanks, leak check on gas lines). The nominal pressure of the gas cylinders is 200 bar. Each individual gas cylinder is tested with a test pressure of 300 bar and has a design bursting pressure of more than 600 bar.
The gas cylinders are accommodated in sturdy brackets. The standard fuel tank for gasoline retains its full volume of 54 liters.
n i a r t e v i r D
A meltable seal and a flow rate limiter prevent the gas cylinders from exploding in extreme situations. Each gas cylinder can also be mechanically locked via a manual shutoff valve.

Natural gas drive Filler connection The filler connection with integrated check valve is located behind the fuel filler flap and provides a connection between the gas filling station connection and the gas cylinders. Depending on the type of filling station and amount of gas remaining in the cylinders, it takes between 40 s and 5 min to refuel the gas cylinders. When the vehicle is fueled quickly, the gas in the cylinders heats up. Accordingly, temperature compensation is carried out at modern natural gas filling stations depending on the outside temperature and the total quantity of gas added.
The refueling procedure produces an unfamiliar noise which can be heard around the vehicle. This is part of the system design and is caused by the high flow rate of the gas The maximum possible tank filling pressure – and thus the range of the vehicle – is heavily dependent on the performance of the gas refueling station. A filter i n the filler connection cleans the gas of particles (> 40 µm) to prevent contamination of the tank system. The gas fill line is the connection between the filler connection and the T-piece with check valve The gas cylinders are connected to each other via gas lines. The mixture formation system is supplied with natural gas via an additional gas line.

Natural gas drive Vehicle safety in the B 170 NGT BlueEFFICIENCY model The B 170 NGT model with bivalent drive can either be operated on premium gasoline or natural gas. The model has passed all of the relevant crash tests and engineering strength inspections. The gas cylinders (plastic composite material) were tested at a test pressure of 300 bar. The burst pressure is approx. 600 bar. Each of the five gas cylinders is equipped with a safety coupling. The cylinders are automatically locked by an electromagnetic shutoff valve when the vehicle is parked, during gasoline operation and in the event of predefined forces acting on the vehicle during an accident.
Thermally activated safety valves with a melting seal, bursting disks and flow rate limiters prevent the gas cylinders from bursting.
n i a r t e v i r D
Each gas cylinder can be manually shut off for maintenance operations via a manual shutoff valve.

Natural gas drive Components on gas distribution rail Gas temperature sensor
Gas low-pressure sensor
The gas temperature sensor records the gas temperature in the gas distribution rail and forward this information to the CNG control unit so that the injection quantity can be measured correctly. The NTC resistor installed in the temperature sensor alters its electrical resistance in line with the gas temperature. The resulting changes in signal voltage are evaluated by the CNG control unit.
The gas low-pressure sensor records the system pressure in the low-pressure system. It transmits its signal to the CNG control unit, which monitors the current gas pressure at the low-pressure side. The pressure measuring range of the gas low-pressure sensor is between 0 and 10 bar. Pressures outside this range are evaluated as a fault by the CNG control unit, which then prevents the vehicle from operating in gas operation mode.
n i a r t e v i r D
Gas injection valve When the magnet coil is energized by the CNG control unit, the armature sleeve with an injection molded soft seal is lifted away from the valve seat towards the coil spring. The gas comes out via the four slot-shaped openings of the valve seat. The duration of the actuation depends on the quantity of gas required. The actuation duration is calculated by the ME-SFI [ME] control unit.

Natural gas drive Pressure regulator unit The task of the pressure regulator unit is to reduce the high pressure of the gas in the gas cylinders from 200 bar to the system pressure required at the engine intake side of 6.5 bar.
Pressure relief valve If the pressure regulator unit malfunctions, the pressure relief valve is opened as of a pressure of 16 bar, allowing the natural gas to escape into the atmosphere. If the pressure relief valve is actuated, a fault is detected by the CNG control unit and the gas safety shutoff valve is closed.
Pressure regulator unit heater Because the gas loses heat as its pressure is being reduced from the cylinder pressure to 6.5 bar, the pressure regulator unit is fitted with a heating plate which is connected to the heating circuit. This prevents the pressure regulator unit from icing up.
High-pressure sensor The gas high-pressure sensor is screwed into the pressure regulator unit. It records the absolute gas cylinder pressure in the range of 0 to 260 bar and transmits a proportional electrical signal to the CNG control unit. The gas cylinder pressure is displayed in the instrument cluster as the tank fill level.
Gas safety shutoff valve The gas safety shutoff valve separates the gas highpressure circuit from the gas low-pressure circuit. The gas safety shutoff valve is actuated by the CNG control unit. When it is actuated, a duct is opened in the gas pressure regulator between the gas high-pressure circuit and the gas low-pressure circuit. If the CNG control unit detects a system fault or receives a crash signal, the gas safety shutoff valve is closed. In the rest condition (deenergized) the gas safety shutoff valve is closed by an integral spring.

Battery decoupling relay
Starter generator control unit (N129) The starter generator control unit is located in the underfloor next to the battery box and has the following tasks: Starter mode: • Supply the stator coil of the starter generator with 3-phase AC voltage by means of periodic conversion of the 12 V DC voltage coming from the battery in the inverter modules of the starter generator control unit Alternator mode: • Preexcitation of the rotor coil of the starter generator with 12 V DC voltage from the battery • Rectification of the 3-phase AC voltage from the stator coil of the starter generator using active semiconductors within the starter generator control unit

i Note Rectification of the three sinusoidal oscillations offset at 120° produces a rectified but slightly wavy alternator voltage which is smoothed out further by the battery connected in parallel to the starter generator and the capacitors in the onboard electrical system.
Battery decoupling relay (K19) The battery decoupling relay is located in the underfloor next to the starter generator control unit. Its task is to disconnect the on-board electrical system from the battery when the engine is started. The battery thus only supplies the electrical starter circuit with energy during the starting procedure. At the same time, the additional battery supplies the onboard electrical system with energy.

Task of starter generator The starter generator is driven by a poly-V belt and supplies sufficient energy to the on-board electrical system at all engine speeds occurring during driving operation. It is thus responsible for maintaining the power supply to the on-board electrical system and charging the battery. In addition, it performs the task of the starter when the engine is at operating temperature.
A starter generator position sensor is fitted to the rotor to monitor its position and rotational speed.
Design of starter generator
• A shared connection for the three 3-phase lines (U, V, W) of the starter generator control unit • A connector for the sensor lines to the starter generator control unit • A connection for the excitation lines of the starter generator control unit
The belt-driven starter generator is a 3-phase synchronous motor with a claw-pole design. The stator of the starter generator is equipped with a 3-phase winding. The rotor consists of a rotor winding positioned concentrically to the rotor axis which is surrounded by claw poles. These form the north and south poles of the ferromagnetic circuit on an alternating basis. Sli p rings are used to excite the rotor winding.
Air deflector shields are fitted to the rotor to improve the ducting of the cooling air within the starter generator. The belt-driven starter generator has the following connections:

Crankshaft pulley Belt tensioner Refrigerant compressor Starter generator
Belt drive The belt tension is particularly important because of the continuous changes in load during start/stop operation. For this reason, a hydraulic spring damper element supported against the cylinder crankcase is installed as a belt tensioner. The belt tensioner is hinge-mounted so that it can transfer tensioning forces to the belt drive. The following modifications have also been performed: • Wider poly-V belt with 6 grooves • Greater belt tension due to the use of a hydraulic belt tensioner • Belt path has been changed to better enclose the belt pulley of the crankshaft • Use of reinforced bearings on coolant pump, starter generator and refrigerant compressor
P13.20-2060-00
i Note The belt tensioner may only be released and tightened using the specified special tool. When being released, the belt tensioner may only be pressed together very slowly to prevent damage (T > 20 s). If it is pressed together quickly, hydraulic pressure compensation cannot take place and the belt tensioner will be irreparably damaged.

The additional battery is located behind the trunk lining on the right-hand side.
The additional battery relay is located next to the additional battery behind the trunk lining on the right-hand side. Its task is to connect the additional battery to the on-board electrical system during the starting procedure and for charging. The relay has a soundinsulated housing to keep the switching noises down to a comfortable level.
It supplies the on-board electrical system with energy during starting procedures. This prevents current fluctuations which would be seen as a comfort impairment by the driver.
Clutch pedal switch (S40/3) Actuation of the clutch pedal is detected via the clutch pedal switch.
Start enable clutch pedal switch (S40/5) The start enable clutch pedal switch detects that the clutch pedal is fully actuated and thus that the drivetrain is disengaged.

The engine hood switch is located in the area of the engine hood catch and has a dual switch design. The switches have a redundant design so that engine hood opening can be reliably detected. Both switches prevent the engine from starting automatically when the engine hood is open. Both signals are read in and processed by the SAM control unit. One of the switches is also used to activate the ATA [EDW].
The brake pressure sensor is located on the vacuum line and measures the vacuum. The signal is forwarded to the ME-SFI [ME] control unit.
Transmission neutral position sensor (B79/2) The transmission neutral position sensor is located in the shift module. It detects the transmission neutral position.
ECO switch (N72/1s45) The ECO switch is located in the upper control panel control unit. The ECO start/stop function can be deactivated (integrated LED off) and reactivated (integrated LED on) by pressing the ECO switch. The status of the ECO switch is processed by the ME-SFI [ME] control unit.

Brake system HILL START ASSIST The HILL START ASSIST function has been introd uced to the A-Class and B-Class as standard to make starting off on slopes easier and prevent the vehicle from rolling backwards. The HILL START ASSIST function is implemented by the ESP and BAS control unit. The software in the ESP and BAS control unit has been adjusted for this purpose.
Function The HILL START ASSIST function causes the traction system hydraulic unit to maintain the brake pr essure, which was built up via the brake pedal and which is required to hold the vehicle in place, for a short period of time after the driver releases the brake pedal. The preprogrammed holding time of 1 second is designed to give the driver enough time to comfortably switch from the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal without the vehicle rolling back unintentionally. When the driver actuates the accelerator pedal, the brake pressure holding time is extended until the drive torque available at the drivetrain is sufficient for the vehicle to start off without rolling backwards.
Activation of the function The function is activated automatically if the following function requirements are met: • Vehic Vehicle le is sta statio tiona nary ry • A slope slope in the the directio direction n of travel travel is detecte detected d The upward or downward slope is calculated based on the longitudinal acceleration signal from the yaw rate sensor for lateral and longitudinal acceleration while the vehicle is at a standstill.
i Note The HILL START ASSIST function is not activated when driving on the flat or downhill.
Aborting the function The HILL START ASSIST function is aborted as soon as one of the following function conditions occurs: • Hand Hand bra brake ke is is actu actuat ated ed • Engi Engine ne is shut shut off off • Transm Transmiss ission ion is shift shifted ed to neutra neutrall (only vehicles with CVT transmission) • A gear change is made made from a forward forward gear to a reverse gear or vice versa
i Note If the driver does not actuate the accelerator pedal after releasing the brake pedal, the brake p ressure is quickly released after one second.

On-board electrical system Model series 169 and 245 without code (B01) ECO start/stop function The goal of on-board electrical system management is to assure a positive charge balance in the battery so that the vehicle can be started at any time. The load state of the on-board electrical system is compared against defined characteristics and suitable measures are implemented where necessary. These include, for example: • Different charging voltage specifications for the alternator • Rpm increases during engine idle • Reduction of the output of individual convenience consumers
To allow the vehicle to remain idle for long periods, the load on the battery from the quiescent current must be as low as possible. In addition to the optimization of individual components, two other measures have been introduced: decentralized power management and a quiescent current switch. Decentralized power management is integrated into all control units as a standard software module and prevents undesirable control unit activity when the vehicle is parked. The quiescent current switch is a bistable relay that is opened by the on-b oard electrical system management when the vehicle is idle and the run-on time has elapsed. All control units that are not needed when the vehicle is idle are disconnected from the battery. This further minimizes the quiescent current demand.

On-board electrical system Model series 169 and 245 with code (B01) ECO start/stop function On vehicles with the ECO start/ stop function, an additional battery is installed to support the on-board electrical system during the starting procedure. The following components have been added compared to the standard vehicle: • Larger on-board electrical system battery with absorbent glass mat design and an output of 70 Ah • Additional battery with absorbent glass mat design and an output of 12 Ah • Intelligent battery sensor • Battery cutoff relay
n g i s e D
The two batteries can be coupled whenever this is necessary for the vehicle to operate properly. This involves connecting the battery and additional battery in parallel. The electric circuits are separate primarily in order to safeguard the starting ability of the vehicle. For this reason, other consumers are only allowed to consume energy under certain conditions. The two electric circuits are coupled and decoupled via a battery cutoff relay. The on-board electrical system is coordinated by the SAM control unit.
The battery sensor determines the charge state of the battery. Absorbent glass mat batteries are used because of the frequent charge and discharge cycles.

A-Class
With the model refinement of model series 169 and 245, the "Exterior lights shutoff" function is now available. With this function, the low beams are switched off if the ignition is switched off while the low beams are still on. If the transmitter key is then removed from the ignition lock or the door is opened, the standing lights are also switched off. An acoustic warning message is no longer output. The standing lights can be reactivated with the ignition off by turning the rotary light switch to the standing lights position.
In combination with the redesign of the body shape in the area of the front bumper, the lamp units have also been modified. Halogen reflector headlamps are installed in the A-Class as standard. Bi-xenon headlamps with projection technology and cornering illumination are available as special equipment. On vehicles with cornering illumination, the cornering illumination function is no longer performed by the front fog lamps but by the new lamp units. On vehicles with halogen headlamps, the high beam function is performed by a separate halogen headlamp installed in the lamp unit in place of the cornering illumination component.

To optimize rearward signaling, the brake lamps flash in the event of an emergency brake application. The function requirements for this are: • Brakes applied • Vehicle speed > 50 km/ h • Brake Assist active or vehicle deceleration > 7.5 m/s 2 or heavy brake application with high brake pressure and ABS control • Hazard warning flasher not manually activated The preconditions are registered by the ESP and BAS control unit. An emergency braking signal is generated from the data and output on the engine compartment CAN. The signal is registered by the EZS control unit and relayed over the interior CAN to the SAM control unit. The SAM control unit receives the signal and actuates all brake lights for the duration of the emergency braking signal. The adaptive brake lights pulse at a frequency of 3 Hz to ensure that following vehicles are aware of an emergency brake application even earlier. If the vehicle comes to a stop after such a brake application, the flashing brake light function is canceled and the brake lights are actuated continuously again. If the vehicle speed before the emergency brake application was over 70 km/h, the hazard warning flasher is automatically switched on once the vehicle reaches a standstill. The hazard warning system is deactivated when the vehicle accelerates back above 10 km/h.

Active Park Assist incl. PARKTRONIC System in general With the model refinement of the A-Class and B-Class, Active Park Assist, code (235), is available as special equipment for the first time and the PARKTRONIC (PTS) system is included additionally. Like the familiar PARKTRONIC system, Active Park Assist operates using ultrasonic sensors. Active Park Assist helps the driver to find a sufficiently large parallel parking space and then park the vehicle comfortably in the space.
Ultrasonic sensors are used to scan the road for parallel parking spaces, which are then suggested to the driver. Once a parking space has been found, the system controls the steering maneuver by actuating the electric steering actuator. The driver remains responsible for determining the acceptability/plausibility of the parking space found by the system and also controls the longitudinal movement of the vehicle via the accelerator pedal and brake pedal.

Active Park Assist incl. PARKTRONIC Ultrasonic sensors
Function sequence
On vehicles with Active Park Assist, the outer left and right front ultrasonic sensors are not just used for the PARKTRONIC function, they also scan the road for potential parallel parking spaces. The two outer sensors therefore change their sensing range according to requirements.
The Active Park Assist function does not have to be activated. At vehicle speeds of up to 35 km/h, the outer ultrasonic sensors in the front bumper always operate in the background to scan the road for parking spaces on both sides, to the left and right of the vehicle. The parking spaces that are found are stored over a distance of approx. 15 m.
n g i s e D
At low speeds, the symbol "P" is displayed on the multifunction display of the instrument cluster to indicate that the system is searching for parking spaces. When a parking space is found, an arrow indicates the side of the road on which the parking space is located.
i Note By default the system only indicates parking spaces on the passenger-side of the vehicle. To have parking spaces on the driver side indicated as well (e.g. on one-way streets), the driver must actuate the turn signal towards the driver side.

Active Park Assist incl. PARKTRONIC i Note
i Note
The system only detects free spaces based on whether the vehicle would fit in the space. It cannot detect whether or not the free space is actually a parking space.
The Active Park Assist function is aborted if the vehicle speed exceeds exceeds 10 km/ h during parking or if the driver intervenes in the steering maneuver while the vehicle is being parked.
If the driver stops and engages the reverse gear after driving past a suitable parking space, the following message is first displayed on the multifunction display of the instrument cluster: • "Activa "Activate te Park Park Assist Assist?" ?" "Pay attention to your surroundings" Confirm with "Yes" or "No" using the buttons on the multi function steering wheel The parking maneuver supported by the Active Park Assist function is started once the system warning messages have been confirmed on the instrument cluster. The following message appears next: • "Par "Park k Assi Assist st act activ ive" e" "Accelerate and brake yourself" The driver now removes his/her hands from the steering wheel and only has to carefully actuate the accelerator and brake pedals until the final position is reached. Additional maneuvering may be required. The following message then appears:
The lateral boundary of the parking space (width) is determined based on a detected obstacle (e.g. a curb). If no obstacle is detected at the side, the vehicle is aligned based on the obstacle in front (vehicle). In this case, the parking angle is determined by the direction of travel as the vehicle moved past the parking space.
i Note While maneuvering, the multifunction display displays the following instructions to the dri ver, if necessary: • "Please "Please engage engage forwar forward d gear" gear" or • "Please "Please enga engage ge rever reverse se gear" gear"
• "Parkin "Parking g assist assistanc ance e complet complete" e" "Take over control"

Audio and communication Navigation The navigation function on vehicles with Audio 50 APS and COMAND APS is now significantly quicker because the system only uses DVDs and the hard disk. The larger data memory also makes it possible to provide additional information in the vehicle. For example, the Audio 50 APS is, for the first time, capable of displaying detailed information on the road situation at junctions by means of an intersection zoom function. The COMAND APS controller unit is also able to display lane guidance. This allows the driver to see precisely which lane he/she needs to drive along to follow the route calculated by the system on freeway exit ramps. In addition, other important information such as gas stations along the route is displayed as symbols on the map.
Telephony
n g i s e D
Basic telephony via Bluetooth interface During Bluetooth operation, the mobile phone is not connected to the external vehicle antenna and is not recharged. Telephone book entries can be transferred to the audio unit via the business card transfer function.
Comfort telephony via universal interface The universal interface is located in the center console and connects the mobile phone to the vehicle via a suitable cradle. Integrating the mobile phone into the on-board electrical system via the cradle has the advantage that the external vehicle antenna can be used and the battery of the mobile phone can be recharged by the on-board electrical system. Operating the phone via the universal i nterface allows the telephone book to be transferred to the audio unit. The entries can be downloaded both from the memory of the mobile phone and from the SIM card.
On vehicles with basic telephony, suitable mobile phones can be connected to the audio system of the vehicle via the Bluetooth interface installed as standard and on vehicles with comfort telephony, code (386), they can be connected via a universal interface. With both variants, the mobile phone can be operated using the multifunction steering wheel and the buttons on the audio unit.

Audio and communication Entertainment The NTG 2.5 audio units can also receive DAB digital radio (GB) and are MP3-capable. In addition, the Audio 20 radio is able to receive Sirius satellite radio (Canada). The COMAND controller unit also supports DVD video playback. The COMAND and COMAND APS are equipped with a slot for SD memory cards and are also available as special equipment with a 6-disk DVD changer. The SD memory card allows the new MusicRegister functions including Compact Disc Database (CDDB) to be used. SD storage media can be connected to the COMAND and COMAND APS via the SD memory card slot and audio files can then be transferred to the hard disk.
n g i s e D
On the ECE version, the MusicRegister allows music files to be copied. On the Japan version, music files and compressed audio files can additionally be opened and selected directly. These files can be transferred directly to the hard disk of the COMAND units from a CD, DVD or SD memory card. With the functionality of the Compact Di sc Database, information about artists, track names, track lengths and music genre can be found on the "Gracenote" database and displayed on the COMAND units. With all versions of the audio units, an AUX IN jack is installed in the glove box as standard. This can be used to connect external devices (e.g. MP3 pl ayers) to the audio unit of the vehicle. The AUX IN jack is omitted on vehicles with the media interface special equipment option.

Audio and communication Sirius satellite radio (for Canada) General
Input
The Satellite Digital Audio Radio (SDAR) allows reception of radio stations from the provider "Sirius Satellite Radio".
The SDAR antenna receives all three channels of the provider (Sat 1, Sat 2 and several terrestrial transmitters). The multifunction antenna routes the signals over a coaxial cable on to the SDAR control unit.
To achieve reception diversity, the Sirius satellite radio signal is transmitted in triplicate (by two satellites and several terrestrial transmitters).
Function The SDAR control unit allows the radio programs to be received. The Satellite Digital Audio Radio (SDAR) system is controlled via the Audio 20. The information and displays required to operate the system are displayed on the Audio 20.
Processing The SDAR control unit receives and decodes the signals.
Output The SDAR control unit then transmits the decoded digital radio signals to the Audio 20 via Media Oriented System Transport (MOST). The audio signals are output at the speakers. If a Sound system is installed, the audio signals are output at the speakers via the amplifier for the Sound system.

Audio and communication Digital Audio Broadcasting radio operation (for GB) General Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB) is a digital transmission standard optimized for the mobile reception of radio programs. Several programs are bundled into "ensembles" on a particular frequency and transmitted together. One ensemble consists of up to twelve radio programs. Each ensemble is broadcast in a particular frequency range like a conventional FM radio station either nationally, regionally or locally. Listeners can thus also obtain tips about events happening in the region or listen to regional news etc.
The DAB functions are controlled via the respective audio unit.
Input The Digital Audio Broadcasting control unit receives DAB L-band signals from the DAB L-band antenna via a coaxial line and band III signals from the left antenna amplifier module via a coaxial line.
Processing The Digital Audio Broadcasting control unit converts the DAB L-band signals and band III signals into pulse code modulation (PCM) signals.
Function
Output
The Digital Audio Broadcasting control unit allows the reception of ensembles in DAB format on the following audio units:
The DAB status and the channel lists are transferred to the respective audio unit via Media Oriented System Transport (MOST). The audio signals are then transferred to the speakers. If a Sound system is installed, the audio signals are output at the speakers via the amplifier for the Sound system.

Audio and communication Media interface General
Function
A universal device connection point known as "media interface" is available as special equipment for the NTG 2.5 audio units. This allows external audio devices to be connected to the vehicle via an adapter cable and then controlled using the on-board audio unit. The adapter cable is connected to the media interface control unit via the media interface electrical connector in the glove compartment. The media interface control unit is a subscriber to the MOST ring and is located under the glove compartment.
If an external audio device is connected to the adapter cable, the media interface control unit detects it via the connector in the glove compartment. Via MOST, the media interface control unit then indicates to the radio that a device has been connected. The media interface control unit then switches the audio application that is currently active over to the media interface. At the same time, the audio signals and data from the connected external audio device are transferred to the on-board audio unit via the following path:
The following device types can be connected via the adapter cables available as Mercedes-Benz accessories:
• • • •
• AUX devices with standard jack • iPod or serial USB devices (Media Transfer Protocol (MTP)) • Special USB devices (mass storage devices) The AUX IN jack installed in the glove compartment as standard is omitted on vehicles with the media interface special equipment option.
Adapter cable Media interface connector Media interface control unit MOST
The name of the artist and of the music track is displayed on the display of the radio and on the instrument cluster.
