The engine does not start. You cannot hear the starter motor. The on-board voltage is too low because the battery is too weak or discharged.

If the engine does not start despite attempts to jump-start it:

•►  Consult a qualified specialist workshop, e.g. an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center.

The starter motor was exposed to a thermal load that was too high.

•►  Allow the starter motor to cool down for approximately two minutes.

•►  Try to start the engine again.

If the engine still does not start:

•►  Check the coolant level. Observe the warning notes as you do so and add coolant if necessary.
