The following components of the different
vehicle versions influence fuel consumption:
R tire sizes, tire tread, tire pressure, tire condi-
tion
R transmission ratios for the drive assemblies
R additional equipment (e.g. air-conditioning
system, auxiliary heating system)
For these reasons, the actual consumption fig-
ures for your vehicle may deviate from the
consumption figures determined according to
EU Directive
80/1268/EEC.
Details on fuel consumption can be called up
in the on-board computer:

General notes When handling engine oil, observe the impor-
tant safety notes on operating fluids
(Y page

305).
The quality of the engine oil used is of decisive
importance for the engine's functionality and
operating life. Mercedes-Benz continually
approves engine oils based on complex experi-
ments according to the current state of the
art.
Therefore, only Mercedes-Benz approved
engine oils may be used in Mercedes-Benz
engines. Mercedes-Benz recommends having
the oil changed at a qualified specialist work-
shop. Information about engine oils approved by
Mercedes-Benz can be obtained:
R from any Mercedes-Benz Commercial Van
Center
R on the Internet at

by enter-
ing the designation, e.g. 229.5.
Mercedes-Benz approval is indicated on the oil
container by the inscription „MB-Freigabe“ or
„MB Approval“ and the corresponding designa-
tion, e.g. MB-Freigabe or MB Approval 229.5.
Designations of the approved engine oils for
your vehicle MB-Freigabe or MB
Approval
229.5,
229.62 Mercedes-Benz recommends that you only use
approved multigrade engine oils of the SAE
classes

SAE 0W-30 and SAE 0W-40 or
SAE 5W-30 and SAE 5W-40. These engine oils
ensure optimum lubrication even at very low
outside temperatures (Y page 309).
To achieve the lowest possible fuel consump-
tion, it is recommended to use the engine oil
specifications marked in the table for the low-
est SAE viscosity class. Observe possible
restrictions of the released SAE classifications.
When refilling, we recommend that you only
use engine oil of the same grade (MB-Freigabe
or MB Approvaldesignation) and SAE class as
the oil filled at the last oil change.
i If the engine oils listed in the table are not
available, you may add the following engine
oils until the next oil change:
R MB-Freigabe or MB Approval 229.1, or
ACEA A3
This must only be added once and the
amount must not be greater than 1 qt
(1.0 l).
Subsequently have the engine oil changed
at the earliest possible opportunity.
! Using engine oils of another grade quality
is not permitted.
2 Recommended for the lowest possible fuel consumption (lowest viscosity class in each case taking into
account possible restrictions of the approved SAE classifications). 308
