halt by braking carefully. Avoid abrupt steeringmovements.
The tire pressure monitor has a yellow warninglamp in the instrument cluster for indicatingpressure loss or a malfunction. Whether thewarning lamp flashes or lights up indicateswhether a tire pressure is too low or the tirepressure monitor is malfunctioning:
Rif the warning lamp is lit continuously, the tirepressure on one or more tires is significantlytoo low. The tire pressure monitor is not mal-functioning.
Rif the warning lamp flashes for around aminute and then remains lit constantly, thetire pressure monitor is malfunctioning.
In addition to the warning lamp, a messageappears in the multifunction display. Observethe information on display messages(Ypage 213).
It may take up to ten minutes for a malfunctionof the tire pressure monitor to be indicated. Amalfunction will be indicated by the tire pres-sure warning lamp flashing for approximatelyone minute and then remaining lit. When themalfunction has been rectified, the tire pressurewarning lamp goes out after a few minutes ofdriving.
The tire pressure values indicated by the on-board computer may differ from those meas-ured at a gas station with a pressure gauge. Thetire pressures shown by the on-board computerrefer to those measured at sea level. At highaltitudes, the tire pressure values indicated by apressure gauge are higher than those shown bythe on-board computer. In this case, do notreduce the tire pressures.
The operation of the tire pressure monitor canbe affected by interference from radio transmit-ting equipment (e.g. radio headphones, two-wayradios) that may be being operated in or near thevehicle.
Checking the tire pressure electroni-
cally
XMake sure that the SmartKey is in position Hin the ignition lock (Ypage 123).
XPress Yor eon the steering wheel toselect theServ.Serv.menu.
XPress the cor dbutton to selectTire PressureTire Pressure.
XPress the vbutton.The current tire pressure of each tire is shownin the multifunction display.
If the vehicle was parked for longer than20 minutes, theTire pressure will beTire pressure will bedisplayed after driving a few minutesdisplayed after driving a few minutesmessage is shown.
After a teach-in process, the tire pressure mon-itor automatically detects new wheels or newsensors. As long as a clear allocation of the tirepressure value to the individual wheels is notpossible, theTireTirePressurePressureMonitorMonitorActiveActivemessage is shown instead of the tire pressuredisplay. The tire pressures are already beingmonitored.
If an emergency spare wheel is mounted, thesystem may continue to show the tire pressureof the wheel that has been removed for a fewminutes. If this occurs, note that the value dis-played for the position where the spare wheel isfitted is not the same as the current tire pres-sure of the emergency spare wheel.
Tire pressure monitor warning mes-
sages
If the tire pressure monitor detects a pressureloss in one or more tires, a warning message isshown in the multifunction display. The yellowtire pressure warning lamp then lights up.
RIf thePlease Correct Tire PressurePlease Correct Tire Pressuremessage appears in the multifunction display,the tire pressure in at least one tire is too low.The tire pressure must be corrected when theopportunity arises.
RIf theCheck Tire PressureCheck Tire Pressuremessageappears in the multifunction display, the tirepressure in one or more tires has droppedsignificantly. The tires must be checked.
RIf theTireTirePressurePressureWarningWarningTireTireFail‐Fail‐ureuremessage appears, the tire pressure in oneor more tires has dropped suddenly. The tiresmust be checked.
Observe the instructions and safety notes in thedisplay messages in the "Tires" section(Ypage 213).
If the wheel positions on the vehicle are rotated,the tire pressures may be displayed for thewrong positions for a short time. This is rectifiedafter a few minutes of driving, and the tire pres-sures are displayed for the correct positions.

Coolant
Important safety notes
GWARNING
If antifreeze comes into contact with hot com-
ponents in the engine compartment, it may
ignite. There is a risk of fire and injury.
Let the engine cool down before you add anti-
freeze. Make sure that antifreeze is not spilled
next to the filler neck. Thoroughly clean the
antifreeze from components before starting
the engine.
!Only add coolant that has been premixedwith the desired antifreeze protection. Youcould otherwise damage the engine.
You can find additional notes on the coolant inthe following places:
Rin the Mercedes-Benz Specifications forService Products, MB BeVo 310.1
-on the Internet athttp://bevo.mercedes-benz.com
-on the Mercedes-Benz BeVo app
Ra qualified specialized workshop
!Always use a suitable coolant mixture, evenin countries where high temperatures prevail.
Otherwise, the engine cooling system is notsufficiently protected from corrosion andoverheating.
iHave the coolant regularly replaced at aqualified specialist workshop and the replace-ment confirmed in the Maintenance Booklet.
Comply with the important safety notes for ser-vice products when handling coolant(Ypage 319).
The coolant is a mixture of water and corrosioninhibitor/antifreeze concentrate. It performsthe following tasks:
Ranti-corrosion protection
Rantifreeze protection
Rraising the boiling point
If the coolant has antifreeze protection down to-35 ‡ (-37 †), the boiling point of the coolantduring operation is approximately 266 ‡(130 †).
The antifreeze concentrate/corrosion inhibitorconcentration in the engine cooling systemshould:
Rbe at least 50%. This will protect the enginecooling system against freezing down toapproximately -35 ‡ (-37 †)
Rnot exceed 55% (antifreeze protection downto -49‡[-45 †]). Otherwise, heat will not bedissipated as effectively
Mercedes-Benz recommends a coolant or cor-rosion inhibitor/antifreeze concentrate inaccordance withMB Specifications for Service Products 310.1.
iWhen the vehicle is first delivered, it is filledwith a coolant mixture that ensures adequateantifreeze and anti-corrosion protection.
iThe coolant is checked with every mainte-nance interval at a qualified specialist work-shop.

Windshield washer system
Important safety notes
GWARNING
Windshield washer concentrate could ignite if
it comes into contact with hot engine compo-
nents or the exhaust system. There is a risk of
fire and injury.
Make sure that no windshield washer con-
centrate is spilled next to the filler neck.
!Only MB SummerFit and MB WinterFitwasher fluid should be mixed together. Thespray nozzles may otherwise becomeblocked.
Do not use distilled or de-ionized water. Other-wise, the level sensor may give a false reading.
