Hi, i don't know but it could be that your battery is empty. You can do 2 things.
1. charge the battery
2. have a look if the battery hast enough water, if not fill up destilled water and charge the battery
If that not helps can it also be that you have a problem with the elecrtic, but in this case go to a local dealer.

I agree, it is probably the battery. I have heard a lot of them dying around the 3 year old mark. Call mercedes roadside 1-800-formercedes. They will come to your house and change the battery.
