24 GHz radar sensor system (country overview)
The 24 GHz radar sensor system requires separate approval for each country. When you are
driving in a country in which the radar sensor system is not approved, you must deactivate
the system using the on-board computer (
Y page 223).
The current country overview can be obtained from a Mercedes-Benz Service Centre or on
the Internet at: http://www.mercedes-benz.de/betriebsanleitung.
Vehicles with a navigation system: the radar sensor system is deactivated automatically
near radio telescope facilities. A display message appears in the multifunction display to tell
you that the radar sensor system is being switched off (
Y page 246).
If Blind Spot Assist is active, it will be deactivated automatically ( Y page 219).
If deactivation does not occur automatically, you must deactivate the radar sensor system
using the on-board computer (
Y page 223).
Vehicles without navigation and vehicles for Australia: you must deactivate the radar
sensor system using the on-board computer when you are near a radio telescope facility
(
Y page 223).
