GWARNING
Functions relevant to safety are restricted or
no longer available if:
Rthe engine is not running
Rthe brake system or the power steering is
malfunctioning
Rthere is a malfunction in the power supply
or the vehicle's electrical system
When your vehicle is towed away or towed
started, you may require considerably more
effort to steer and brake. There is a risk of an
accident.
In such cases, use a tow bar. Before being
towed away or tow started, make sure the
steering moves freely.
XPull oil dipstickCout of the dipstick guidetube.
XWipe off oil dipstickC.
XSlowly slide oil dipstickCinto the guide tubeto the stop, and take it out again.If the level is between MIN mark

Example: engine oil cap
XTurn capCcounter-clockwise and remove it.
XAdd engine oil.If the oil level is at or below the MIN mark onthe oil dipstick, add 1.1 US qt (1.0 liter) ofengine oil.
XReplace capCon the filler neck and turnclockwise.Ensure that the cap locks into place securely.
XCheck the oil level again with the oil dipstick(Ypage 261).
Further information on engine oil (Ypage 322).
Checking and adding other service
products
Checking coolant level
GWARNING
The cooling system is pressurized, particularly
when the motor is warm. If you open the cap,
you could be scalded if hot coolant sprays out.
There is a risk of injury.
Let the engine cool down before you open the
cap. Wear protective gloves and protective
eyewear when opening. Open the cap slowly
to release pressure.
!The coolant level must only be checked andcorrected when the engine has cooled down(coolant temperature under 104 ‡ (40 †).Checking the coolant level when the coolanttemperature is over 104‡(40 †) can lead todamage to the engine or the engine coolingsystem.
XPark the vehicle on a level surface.
Only check the coolant level when the vehicleis on a level surface and the engine has cooleddown.
XTurn the SmartKey to positionHin the igni-tion lock (Ypage 123).
XCheck the coolant temperature display in theinstrument cluster.The coolant temperature must be below104 ‡ (40 †).
XTurn the SmartKey to positionZ(Ypage 123) in the ignition lock .
XSlowly turn capCcounter-clockwise and torelieve excess pressure.
XTurn capCfurther counter-clockwise andremove it.If the coolant is at the level of marker bar

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.
XTo open:pull capCupwards by the tab.
XAdd the premixed washer fluid.
XTo close:press capConto the filler neckuntil it engages.
If the washer fluid level drops below the recom-mended minimum of 1 liter, a message appearsin the multifunction display prompting you toadd washer fluid (Ypage 218).
Further information on windshield washer fluid/antifreeze (Ypage 323).
ASSYST PLUS
Service message
The ASSYST PLUS service interval displayinforms you of the next service due date.
You can find information on the type of serviceand service intervals in the Maintenance Book-let.
You can obtain further information from anauthorized Mercedes-Benz Center or athttp://www.mbusa.com (USA only).
iThe ASSYST PLUS service interval displaydoes not show any information on the engineoil level. Observe the notes on the engine oillevel (Ypage 261).
The multifunction display shows a service mes-sage for several seconds, e.g.:
RService A in .. daysService A in .. days
RService A dueService A due
RService A overdue by .. daysService A overdue by .. days
Depending on the operating conditions of thevehicle, the remaining time or distance until thenext service due date is displayed.
The letterAAorBB, possibly in connection with anumber or another letter, indicates the type ofservice.AAstands for a minor service andBBfor amajor service.
You can obtain further information from anauthorized Mercedes-Benz Center.
The ASSYST PLUS service interval display doesnot take into account any periods of time duringwhich the battery is disconnected.
Maintaining the time-dependent service sched-ule:
XNote down the service due date displayed inthe multifunction display before disconnect-ing the battery.
or
XAfter reconnecting the battery, subtract thebattery disconnection periods from the ser-vice date shown on the display.

Maintenance and care

Tire-mounting tools should not be used nearthe valve. This could damage the electroniccomponents.
Only have tires changed at a qualified spe-cialist workshop.
Observe the instructions and safety notes in the"Changing a wheel" section (Ypage 310).
The wear patterns on the front and rear tiresdiffer, depending on the operating conditions.Rotate the wheels before a clear wear patternhas formed on the tires. Front tires typicallywear more on the shoulders and the rear tires inthe center.
On vehicles that have the same size front andrear wheels, you can rotate the wheels accord-ing to the intervals in the tire manufacturer'swarranty book in your vehicle documents. If nowarranty book is available, the tires should berotated every 3,000 to 6,000 miles (5,000 to10,000 km). Depending on tire wear, this maybe required earlier. Do not change the directionof wheel rotation.
Clean the contact surfaces of the wheel and thebrake disc thoroughly every time a wheel is rota-ted. Check the tire pressure and, if necessary,restart the tire pressure loss warning system(Canada only) or the tire pressure monitor (USAonly).
Direction of rotation
Tires with a specified direction of rotation haveadditional benefits, e.g. if there is a risk of hydro-planing. These advantages can only be gained ifthe tires are installed corresponding to thedirection of rotation.
An arrow on the sidewall of the tire indicates itscorrect direction of rotation.
Storing wheels
Store wheels that are not being used in a cool,dry and preferably dark place. Protect the tiresfrom oil, grease, gasoline and diesel.
Mounting a wheel
Preparing the vehicle
XStop the vehicle on solid, non-slippery andlevel ground.
XApply the electric parking brake manually.
XBring the front wheels into the straight-aheadposition.
XShift the transmission to position].
XSwitch off the engine.
XVehicles without KEYLESS-GO:remove theSmartKey from the ignition lock.
XVehicles with KEYLESS-GO start-functionor KEYLESS-GO:open the driver's door.The vehicle electronics are now in position

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.
