2018 GLS550 (x166) PDF Owner's Manual
Hello MBWorld Members:
I'm looking for an electronic (pdf) copy of the owner's manual for 2018 GLS550. ( Canada / USA version )
I have searched the internet, with no success, as well as had recent conversations with folks at MB Canada about obtaining a copy. ( Not Available anymore )
It seems both the Canadian and USA MB websites only extend back to 2019 (x167) builds and the manual is quite different from what I can tell.
If nothing available in this forum then I will ask dealerships in my area what they may have available.
I do have a paper copy and know that an electronic copy manual should be able to be accessed via MBUX system,
but I'd rather look thru it via pdf reader in the comfort of my home.

2018 GLS550 (x166) pdf ownwers manual - Found
Thanks to all who reviewed my request. Finally found one, without having to worry about malware etc. being attached.
Slightly low image quality, but all the text is clear.
In older forum comments there was mention of build x166 not being too different than 2019 - xxxx x167 builds, however one of the biggest differences is the change in the cabin console
and surrounding dash configuration.
Hopefully anyone else requiring this manual will be able to access and download from here.

A bit late but there is also this link that has the Owners/Operating manuals for Mercedes: https://www.mercedes-benz.co.uk/pass...s/manuals.html

Thanks for Link
Hello Mikey178 : Thanks for this link. Never thought of the MB UK site as this unit only sold in N.A. from what I understand.
Anyways, they did have the 2017 (x166) build manual which seems exactly the same as the 2018 one.
This one has much better resolution so I'll use this as my goto pdf owner's manual.
Thanks again. Wayner.

Many thanks for sharing the PDF manual. You’ve saved me the trouble of searching for it. Besides, I finally found a good online editor on a service https://bestpdfeditor.net/ with reviews and useful information. Now I want to create a few working PDF files, since the information I need is scattered across many different PDFs. I’m sure I’m not the only one who’s wanted to do that.
