Notes on fuel consump tion The vehicle will use mor
efuel than usual in
the following situations:
R at very low temperatures
R in urban traffic
R on sho rttrips
R when towing atrailer
R in mountainous terrain
i Only for certain countries: the respec tive
current consump tion and emission values
of your vehicle can be fou ndin the COC
papers (EC CERTIFICAT EOFCONFORM-
ITY). These documents ar esupplied when
the vehicle is delivered.
The consumption figures for vehicles up to
the EURO4 standard have been determined
in accordance with EU Directive 80/1 268/
EEC while figures for vehicles complying wit
hthe EURO5 standar dorhigher have
been determined in accordance with Reg-
ulation (EC) No. 715/2007 ,ineach case
based on the currently applicable version.
Deviations from these value smay occur
under norma loperating conditions.
! Do not use any special additives, as they
can cause malfunc tions and engin edam-
age. Damage resulting from the use of such
additives is not covered by the Mercedes-
Benz implied warranty. H
Environmental note
CO 2(carbon dioxide) is the gas which scien-
tists believe to be principally responsibl efor
global warmin g(the greenhouse effect). Your
vehicle's CO 2emissions are directly related to
fuel consumption and therefore depend on:
R efficient use of the fuel by the engine
R driving style
R othe rnon-technical factors, such as envi-
ronmental influences or road conditions
You can minimise your vehicle' sCO
2emis-
sions by driving carefull yand having it serv-
iced regularly. 314

Engine oil
Note the following The quality of engine oils is decisive for the
func
tion and service lif eofane ngine.After
extensive tests, Mercedes-Benz approves
engine oils which correspond to th ecurrent
technical standard.
Therefore, only Mercedes-Benz approved
engine oils may be used in Mercedes-Benz
engines.
Further information on tested and approved
engine oils can be obtained from any
Mercedes-Benz Servic eCentre. We recom-
men dhaving the oil change performed at a
Mercedes-Benz Servic eCentre. Mercedes-
Benz approval is indicated on the oil container
by the inscription "MB Approval" and the cor-
responding designation, e.g. MB Approval
229.51.

Lubricant additives
!
Do not mix any lubrican tadditives with
the engin eoil. This could damage the
engine. Damage resultin gfrom th euse of
suc hlubricant additives in the engine oil is
not covered by the Mercedes-Benz implied
warranty.
Engin eoil viscosity Viscosit
ydescribes the flow characteristics
of afluid. If an engin eoil has ahigh viscosity,
this means that it is thick; alow viscosity
means that it is thin.

ture. The followin gtable shows you the vis-
cosity classes to be used depending on the
average air temperature. Brake fluid
G
Risk of accident
The brak efluid constantly absorbs moisture
fro mt he air ;this lower sits boiling point.
If the boiling point of the brake fluid is too low,
vapour pockets may form in the brake system
when the brakes are applied hard (e.g. when
driving downhill). Thi swould impair braking
efficiency.
You should have the brake fluid renewed at
regular intervals. The brake fluid change inter-
val sc an be found in the Service Booklet.
Only use brake fluid approved by Mercedes-
Benz .Information abou tapproved brak eflu-
ids can be obtained from any Mercedes-Benz
Service Centre.

Coolant
Important safety notes The coolan
tisamixture of water and anti-
freeze/corrosio ninhibitor. It performs the
following tasks:
R anti-corrosio nprotection
R antifreeze protection
R raising th eboiling point
i When the vehicle is first delivered, it is fil-
led with acoolant mixtur ethat ensures
adequate antifreeze and corrosion protec-
tion.
! Only top up with coolant that has been
premixed with the desired antifreeze pro-
tec tion. You coul dotherwis edamage the
engine.
Further information on coolants and on fill-
ing can be found in the Mercedes-Benz
Specifications for Service Products, MB
Approval 310.1 ,e.g. on the Internet at
http ://bevo.mercedes-benz.com .You can
also consult aMercedes-Benz Service
Centre.
! Alway suseasuitable coolant mixture,
even in countries where high temperatures
prevail.
Otherwise, the cooling system will not be
sufficiently protected from corrosion, and
the boiling point will be too low.
If antifreeze/corrosio ninhibitor is present in
the correc tconcentration, the boilin gpoint of
the coolant will be around 13 0†.
The antifreeze/ corrosion inhibitor con centra-
tion in the cooling system should:
R be at leas t50%. This wil lprotect the cooling
system against freezing down to around
37 †.
R not exceed 55% (antifreeze protection
down to -45 †); otherwise ,heat will not be
dissipated as effectively. If the vehicle has lost coolant, top it up with
equal amounts of water and antifreeze/cor-
rosion inhibitor. Mercedes-Ben
zrecom-
mends an anti freeze/cor rosion inhibitor
whic hhas been approved for Mercedes -Benz.
! The coolin gsystem is filled with coolant
which must be renewed after 15 years, or
after 250,000 km at the latest.
The warrant yisonly valid if you top up with
an antifreeze /corrosion inhibitor which
has been approved by Mercedes-Ben zand
