which takes the requirements of both nature
and humanity into account.
You too can help to protect the environment
by operating your vehicle in an environmen-
tally-responsible manner.

the following factors:
R operating conditions of your vehicle
R your personal driving style
You can influence both factors.
You shoul dbear the following in mind:
Operating conditions
R avoid short trips as these increase fuel con-
sumption.
R mak esure that the tyre pressures are
always correct.
R do not carry any unnecessary weight.
R keep an eye on the vehicle's fuel consump-
tion.
R remove roof racks once you no longer need
them.
R ar egularly serviced vehicle will contribute
to environmental protec tion. You should
therefor eadhere to the service inter vals.

at aq ualified specialist workshop ,e.g. a
Mercedes-Benz Service Centre.
