WARNING! Disconnecting the negative battery cable is not recommended due to otherwise extensive reprogramming requirements. WIRING
HARNESSES WILL BE ELECTRICALLY ACTIVE. IT IS THEREFORE NECESSARY TO EXERCISE EXTREME CAUTION WHILE
EXECUTING THESE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS. FAILURE TO DO SO, COULD RESULT IN SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY OR
DEATH FROM ELECTRICAL SHOCK. The ignition and radio power must remain OFF until the final test is performed.
Application Specific D2B Notes:
^ CD changer, telephone, and voice recognition module fibers are installed at the factory. Telephone and voice recognition fibers run along the left
rear quarter panel and the CD fibers along the right rear quarter panel.
^ The vehicle is configured from the factory for the CD changer only.
^ Two sets of fiber cables run along the left quarter panel. One set is for the telephone only and the other for telephone and voice recognition.
While not in the factory configured ring, these optics are coupled together just forward of the battery on the right. Which set of optics to use, will
depend whether the telephone only or telephone with voice recognition will be installed.
^ All reconfiguration points are in the trunk in front of the battery and to the right of the fuse panel.

Version Coding and Diagnostic Testing
H. Version Coding and Diagnostic Testing
1. Connect StarDiagnosis (DAS) to the vehicle and perform the version coding outlined below:
^ Skip to step 3, if the telephone is NOT installed.

1. Using path: Control units/Information and communication/ICM/Standard version coding/Optional equipment, set CTEL to Exists


2. Using path: Control units/Information and communication/D2B/Control module adaptations/D2B Nominal configuration, set the D2B ring

configuration per the following table:
2000 Mercedes Benz CLK 320 (208.365) V6-3.2L (112.940) Page 157
4. Return to the D2B functions menu. Using path: Actual values/D2B Actual configuration, verify that the version coding input above (specified
value) matches the actual configuration performed during installation (actual values). If a difference exists, the ring has been improperly
configured and must be disassembled and properly reconfigured.
NOTICE! DO NOT alter the configuration in step H3 to match the vehicle configuration. Failure to have the configuration set as indicated in the
table will result in erroneous system operation and/or intermittent functioning of some or all components.
5. Check the DTC memory of all installed components and the head unit. Any present DTC(s) should be investigated and the source identified.
Once identified, the source of the DTC(s) should be corrected and the DTC memory cleared.
Note: Powering up the newly installed system prior to the above described version coding, will set D2B ring configuration errors. These errors may
be ignored during the initial DTC check. If after clearing the DTC(s), they return in the next step, a configuration error is present and must be
located and corrected.
6. Confirm that no new DTC(s) have been set in the D2B system group.
Final Assembly and Function Test
I. Final Assembly and Function Test

1. Replace the trunk mat and removed panels.


2. Program the telephone per S-S1-82.70/124, StarTAC Portable Telephone Programming.


3. Verify proper CD changer, telephone, and Voice Activation System (as applicable to equipment installed) operation per the following

checklist:
