maintenance intervals are reduced. For more

If the engine oils listed in the table are not
available, you may add the following engine
oils until the next oil change:
R vehicles with a petrol engine: MB
Approval 229.1, 229.3 or ACEA A3
R vehicles with a diesel engine: MB
Approval 229.1, 229.3, 229.5 or ACEA

This must only be added once and the
amount must not be greater than 1.0 l.

Additives
!
Do not use any additives with the engine
oil. This could damage the engine.
Engine oil viscosity Viscosity describes the flow characteristics
of a fluid. If an engine oil has a high viscosity
rating, it flows slowly; the lower the viscosity,
the faster it flows.
Engine oil selection is based on the respective outside temperatures and in accordance with
the SAE classification (viscosity). The table
shows you which SAE classifications are to be
used. The low-temperature properties of
engine oils can be significantly impaired dur-
ing operation due to, for example, ageing or
soot and fuel accretion. It is therefore
strongly recommended to observe regular oil changes using an approved engine oil with the
appropriate SAE classification. 474
