The personal rewards of striving to be the best are even more meaningful in the development of young people than they are for automobiles. Instilling the
values of leadership, goal-setting, discipline and teamwork in youth is an investment in everyone’s future. It’s why Mercedes -Benz USA is collaborating with
the Laureus Sport for Good Foundation, with an ongoing commitment to train and place hundreds of coaches for after-school and in-school sports programs
in communities around the country. Sports offer kids more than the chance to be physically active and have fun. It’s also an opportunity to have a mentor who
can guide them, help them learn how to deal with major life issues, and help them grow stronger not just physically but in their character. As a Mercedes-Benz
driver, you become a part of this effort to give hundreds of thousands of kids a better life today, and all of us a brighter tomorrow.

Item is optional or not available on some models. See Packages and Options listing in this
brochure or visit MBUSA.com for more information.
Lower-aspect-ratio tires and accompanying wheels provide substantially increased treadwear,
increased tire noise and reduced ride comfort. Serious wheel and tire damage may occur if
the vehicle is operated on rough or damaged road surfaces or upon encountering road debris
or obstacles. These tires are not designed for use on snow and ice. Winter tires mounted on
appropriately sized and approved wheels are recommended for driving in those conditions.
Models with Extended Mobility tires are not provided with a spare tire.
The roll bar system is designed to enhance the level of rollover protection compared to a vehicle
without one. No system, regardless of how advanced, can eliminate the chance of injury in an
accident. Please always wear your seat belt.
Mercedes me and Mercedes-Benz mbrace® services operate only where cellular and GPS
satellite signals are available, which are provided by third parties and not within the control
of Mercedes -Benz USA, LLC. Five years of the mbrace Connect package are included with
new-vehicle sales and leases at an authorized Mercedes -Benz dealer. Subscriber Agreement is
required for service to be active. Secure, Concierge and Entertain services require acceptance
of the complimentary mbrace Connect services, and paid subscriptions after their trial periods.
Some services are only available on select vehicles. Your PIN is required to use certain services.
WiFi and streaming apps require an mbrace Entertain subscription. Connection may be limited
by cellular signal. Apps may be introduced, updated or deleted at varying dates, and may also
require a vehicle software update. Some services may be limited or restricted in some areas.
Driver is responsible for complying with traffic and other laws. Mobile app is compatible with
Apple iPhone® models running iOS 7.0 or later, and Android-based phones running OS 2.3 or
later. See your dealer or MBUSA.com/mercedesme for details.
No system, regardless of how advanced, can overcome the laws of physics or correct careless
driving. Please always wear your seat belt. Performance is limited by available traction, which
snow, ice and other conditions can affect. Always drive carefully, consistent with conditions.
Best performance in snow is obtained with winter tires.
Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC is no substitute for active driving involvement. It does not
adapt cruising speed in response to stationary objects, nor does it predict the curvature and
lane layout of the road ahead or the movement of vehicles ahead. It is the driver’s responsibility
at all times to be attentive to traffic and road conditions, and to provide the steering, braking
and other driving inputs necessary to retain control of the vehicle. Drivers are cautioned not to
wait for the system’s alerts before braking, as that may not afford sufficient time and distance
to brake safely. Braking effectiveness also depends on proper brake maintenance, and tire
and road conditions. See Operator’s Manual for system’s operating speeds and additional
information and warnings.

Even the most advanced safety systems may not be sufficient to avoid an accident. Please refer
to more detailed information on specific systems elsewhere in this brochure, at MBUSA.com,
and in the vehicle’s Operator’s Manual. Some systems may be optional.
While the navigation system provides directional assistance, the driver must remain focused on
safe driving behavior, including paying attention to traffic and street signs. The driver should
utilize the system’s audio cues while driving and should only consult the map or visual displays
once the vehicle has been stopped in a safe place. Maps do not cover all areas or all routes
within an area. Online features require a subscription and one or more mbrace Packages.
Wireless charging available only for devices with compatible technology and size. See
Operator’s Manual for more information. Devices sold separately.
Stated rates of acceleration are estimated based upon manufacturer’s track results and may
vary depending on model, environmental and road surface conditions, driving style, elevation
and vehicle load.
2018 EPA estimated fuel economy (city/highway mpg) is 19/28 for S 450 Sedan, 18/28 for
S 450 4matic Sedan, 17/27 for S 560 4matic Sedan, 17/26 for AMG S 63 Sedan, and 13/22 for
AMG S 65 Sedan. Please see your dealer for estimates for other models. Compare the estimated
mpg to the estimated mpg of other vehicles. You may get different mileage depending on how
fast you drive, weather conditions and trip length.
Driving while drowsy or distracted is dangerous and must be avoided. ATTENTION ASSIST® and
Lane Keeping Assist are warning systems only. ATTENTION ASSIST and Lane Keeping Assist or
Active Lane Keeping Assist may be insufficient to alert a fatigued or distracted driver of lane
drift and cannot be relied on to avoid an accident or serious injury. See Operator’s Manual for
system operating speeds and additional information and warnings.
Blind Spot Assist is a warning system only. Blind Spot Assist and Active Blind Spot Assist may
not be sufficient to avoid all accidents involving vehicles in your blind spot and does not estimate
the speed of approaching vehicles. It must not be used as a substitute for driver awareness
and checking of surrounding traffic conditions. See Operator’s Manual for system’s operating
speeds and additional information and warnings.
Drivers are cautioned not to wait for the system’s alerts before braking, as that may not afford
sufficient time and distance to brake safely. Braking effectiveness also depends on proper
brake maintenance, and tire and road conditions. See Operator’s Manual for system’s operating
speeds and additional information and warnings.
PRE‑SAFE PLUS cannot prevent a collision, and does not alert the driver of an impending
collision or system activation. It does not intervene if vehicle is backing up, and does not apply
the brakes if the driver is accelerating or Active Parking Assist is operating.
15 No system, regardless of how advanced, can overcome the laws of physics or correct careless
driving. Please always wear your seat belt. Driver’s deliberate steering inputs are required to
initiate the system’s action, and can override its intervention at any time. See Operator’s Manual
for system’s operating speeds and additional information and warnings.
16 Active Lane Change Assist is no substitute for active driving involvement. It estimates but
does not predict the curvature and lane layout of the road ahead or the movement of vehicles
ahead. It is the driver’s responsibility at all times to be attentive to traffic and road conditions,
and to provide the driving inputs necessary to retain control of the vehicle. System may not
detect some objects, obstacles or vehicles in the area into which the vehicle would move. See
Operator’s Manual for system’s operating speeds and additional information and warnings.
17 Head-Up Display may not be visible with certain eyewear, including polarized glasses.
18 Rearview camera and Surround View System do not audibly notify driver of nearby objects and
are not substitutes for actively checking around the vehicle for any obstacles or people. Images
displayed may be limited by camera field of view, weather, lighting conditions and the presence of
dirt, ice or snow on the cameras.
19 Night View Assist PLUS does not replace the use of headlamps and must not be used as the
primary visual source for the driver. System is designed not to flash detected animals, as their
reactions are unpredictable.
20 Available power rear seats, Burmester ® High‑End 3D Surround Sound System and refrigerator
box may reduce trunk space. The refrigerator box is removable.
21 Apple CarPlay™ is a product of Apple Inc. Android Auto is a product of Google Inc. Device and
app providers’ terms and privacy statements apply. Requires connected compatible device and
data plan. Apps, content and features are selected solely by their providers. Connection to apps
and streaming services may be limited by the device’s network connection. Data usage is routed
through device and subject to fees, charges and restrictions in user’s wireless plan. Vehicle’s
factory audio/information interface, including COMAND® navigation and the apps of Mercedes Benz mbrace,® may not be used simultaneously with Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. When Apple
CarPlay or Android Auto is in use, the steering-wheel voice control button accesses Siri® or
Google voice recognition software for voice commands.
22 The carbon-ceramic brakes are designed expressly for high-performance braking. It is a characteristic
of their materials and design that brake noise/squeal may result, along with differing brake pedal
feel at lower brake temperatures compared to higher operating temperatures.
23 Active Brake Assist may not be sufficient to avoid an accident. It does not react to certain stationary
or suddenly moving objects or pedestrians, may not react in certain situations where objects
cannot be clearly identified, nor does it recognize or predict the curvature and/or lane layout of
the road or every movement of vehicles and pedestrians ahead. It is the driver’s responsibility at all

times to be attentive to traffic and road conditions, and to provide the steering, braking and other
driving inputs necessary to retain control of the vehicle. Drivers are cautioned not to wait for the
system’s alerts before braking, as that may not afford sufficient time and distance to brake safely.
See Operator’s Manual for system’s operating speeds and additional information and warnings.
Car-to -X services operate only where cellular and Global Positioning System satellite signals
are available, which are provided by third parties and not within the control of Mercedes-Benz
USA, LLC. Five years of the service are included, starting on the original retail sale or lease date
from an authorized Mercedes-Benz dealer. System cannot detect and/or report every road
hazard, and its effectiveness depends on the presence of other vehicles equipped with Car-to -X
Communication. It is the driver’s responsibility at all times to be attentive to traffic and road
conditions, and to provide the steering, braking and other driving inputs necessary to retain
control of the vehicle.
Audio/multimedia system must be turned on for system to operate.
Active Parking Assist is not a substitute for driver attention to the immediate surroundings, as well
as people, animals or vehicles in or approaching the vehicle’s maneuvering range. System cannot
determine if a space is legally available or of a suitable surface for parking. See Operator’s Manual for
additional information, tips and warnings. Rear Cross-Traffic Alert is not a substitute for actively
checking around the vehicle for any obstacles or people. It may not detect certain objects based
on their size, path, proximity or speed and angle of approach, or due to sensor obstruction, and
does not control steering angle. See Operator’s Manual for additional information, tips and warnings.
SEE OPERATOR’S MANUAL FOR ADDITIONAL WARNINGS AND INFORMATION ON AIR BAGS,
SEAT BELTS AND CHILD SEATS. Always use LATCH or ISOFIX to fasten a child seat in a vehicle
with an Integrated Restraint System. For vehicles equipped with the optional rear-cabin air bags,
only use a Mercedes -Benz approved booster seat. Never use an air bag-equipped seat belt to
fasten a front- or rear-facing child seat or a non-approved booster seat.
The AMG Track Pace app is compatible with Apple iPhone.® An iOS update may be required.
The purchase of a new, satellite radio-enabled vehicle includes a 6‑month introductory
subscription to the Sirius All Access package. If you decide to continue your subscription after
your trial, the plan you choose will automatically renew and you will be charged according to
your chosen payment method at then-current rates. Fees and taxes apply. To cancel you must
