Valid Mercedes-Benz oil specification
sheets:Always refer to the following viscosity
chart for the proper viscosity grade based
on ambient temperature. Select oil viscos-
ity according to the lowest air temperature
expected before the next oil change.
This chart supersedes ALL previously pub-
lished viscosity charts.
For further information contact your autho-
rized Sprinter Dealer.
\4Rinse thoroughly with plenty of water in
case of contact with eyes. Consult a
doctor immediately if a service product
is swallowed.
\4Change out of clothing soiled with ser-
vice products immediately to avoid the
risk of fire and other injuries.
\4Fire, naked flames and smoking are
therefore prohibited when handling ser-
vice products due to their highly flam-
mable nature.
\4Keep service products out of the reach
of children.
\4You must observe the notes on danger
concerning the risk of poisoning, acid
burns and fire on the service product
containers.Environmental note
H
Dispose of service products in an environ-
mentally responsible manner.
Engine oils!
CAUTION
Engine oils are labeled on the container
with various ACEA (Association des
Constructeurs Européens d’Automo-
biles) and/or API (American Petroleum
Institute) designations of quality.
DaimlerChrysler Vans LLC recom-
mends the use of MB approved engine
oils listed in the Mercedes-Benz oil
specification sheets MB 229.3, 229.5
and 229.51 which also meet ACEA
and/or API classifications listed on the
following chart. Only engine oils (in-
cluding synthetic) with any of the fol-
lowing classification grades, or
combinations thereof, are approved.

BrakesUse brake fluid approved for DaimlerChrysler standard MB 331.0 and/or DaimlerChrysler material standard MS-9971, brake fluid certified
to DOT 4 Plus standards, that also maintains a minimum dry boiling point (ERBP) of 500 °F (260°C), a minimum wet boiling point (WERBP)
of 356 °F (180 °C) and a maximum viscosity of 1500 mm
2/s, conforming to FMVSS 116 and ISO 4925.

2 Over the course of a brake fluid’s service life, its boiling point falls due to the continuous absorption of moisture from the atmosphere. If the boiling point of the
brake fluid is too low, vapor pockets may form in the brake system when the brakes are applied hard (e.g. when driving on long downhill stretches). This has a det-
rimental effect on braking efficiency, which could increase the stopping distance. This increases the risk of an accident. Have the brake fluid renewed every 2 years.
