WARNING
Service product can be poisonous and haz-
ardous to health. There is a risk of injury.
Observe the instructions on the respective
original container when using, storing and dis- posing off service products. Always store ser-
vice products in the sealed original container. Always keep service products out of the reach
of children. H
Environmental note
Dispose of service products in an environ-
mentally-responsible manner.
Service products include the following:

Fuel is highly flammable. If you handle fuel
incorrectly, there is a risk of fire and explo-

E 200, E 250, E 400 (only for certain coun-
tries)
! Only refuel using sulphur-free unleaded pet-
rol with at least 95 ROZ, that conforms to the
European standard EN 228 or E DIN or an
equivalent specification.
You could otherwise impair engine output or
damage the emission control system.
i In some countries, the available petrol may
not be sufficiently low in sulphur. This fuel can temporarily produce unpleasant odours,
especially on short journeys. As soon as sul-
phur-free fuel (sulphur content < 10 ppm) is
used for refuelling, the odours are reduced.
Additives ! Operating the engine with fuel additives
added later can lead to engine failure. Do not mix fuel additives with fuel. This does not
include additives for the removal and preven-
tion of residue build-up. Petrol must only be
mixed with additives recommended by
Mercedes-Benz. Observe the instructions for
use in the product description. More informa- tion about recommended additives can be
obtained from any Mercedes-Benz Service
Centre.
Mercedes-Benz recommends that you use fuel
brands that have additives.
The quality of the fuel available in some coun-
tries may not be sufficient. Residue could build
up in the injection system as a result. In this
case, in consultation with a Mercedes-Benz Ser- vice Centre, the petrol may be mixed with the
cleaning additive recommended by Mercedes-
Benz. Always observe the notes and mixing
ratios specified on the container.
Diesel Fuel grade
G
WARNING
If you mix diesel fuel with petrol, the flash
point of this fuel mixture is lower than that of pure diesel fuel. When the engine is running,
components in the exhaust system may over-
heat unnoticed. There is a risk of fire.
Never refuel with petrol. Never add petrol to
diesel fuel. !
When refuelling, only use diesel fuel that
conforms to the European standard EN 590 or is of equivalent quality. Fuel that does not
conform to EN 590 can lead to increased wear
as well as damage to the engine and exhaust system.
! Do not use the following:
R marine diesel
R heating oil
R bio-diesel
R vegetable oil
R petrol
R paraffin
R kerosene
Do not mix such fuels with diesel fuel and do
not use any special additives. Otherwise,
engine damage may occur.
! Vehicles with diesel particle filters:
in
countries outside the EU, only use low sulphur
Euro diesel with a sulphur content of under
50 ppm. Otherwise, the emission control sys- tem could be damaged.
! Vehicles without a diesel particle filter:
in countries where only diesel fuel with a high sulphur content is available, you will need to
carry out your vehicle's oil change at shorter
intervals. More information about the interval for oil change can be obtained from any quali-
fied specialist workshop.
Usually you will find information about the fuel
grade on the pump. If you cannot find the label
on the petrol pump, ask the filling station staff.
Information on refuelling (Y page 155).
Low outside temperatures In winter months, diesel fuel with an improved
cold flow quality is available. In Europe, the
EN 590 standard defines various climate-
dependent temperature categories. Malfunc-
tions can be avoided by refuelling with diesel
fuel that corresponds to the climatic specifica-
tions outlined in EN 590. At unusually low out-
side temperatures, it is possible that the flow
characteristics of the diesel fuel could be insuf- ficient. Accordingly, diesel fuel from warmer
areas may not be suitable for operation in colder
climatic conditions.

ture resistance can be obtained from oil com-
panies, e.g. at filling stations. AdBlue
®
Important safety notes Comply with the important safety notes for ser-
vice products when handling AdBlue ®
(Y page 337).
AdBlue ®
is a water-soluble fluid for the exhaust
gas aftertreatment of diesel engines. It is:
R non-toxic
R colourless and odourless
R non-flammable
If you open the AdBlue ®
tank, small amounts of
ammonia vapour may be released.
Ammonia vapours have a pungent odour and are
particularly irritating to the skin, to mucous
membranes and to the eyes. You may experi-
ence a burning sensation in your eyes, nose and throat. You may also experience coughing and
watery eyes.
Do not inhale any ammonia vapours that may be
released. Only fill the AdBlue ®
tank in well-ven-
tilated areas.
Low outside temperatures AdBlue
®
freezes at a temperature of approx-
imately -11 †. The vehicle is delivered from the
factory equipped with an AdBlue ®
preheating
system. Winter operation can thus be guaran-
teed even at temperatures below -11 †.
Additives !
Only use AdBlue ®
in accordance with ISO
22241. Do not use additives with AdBlue ®
and do not dilute AdBlue ®
with water. This
may destroy the BlueTEC exhaust gas after-
treatment system.
Purity !
Impurities in AdBlue ®
(e.g. due to other ser-
vice products, cleaning agents or dust) lead
to:
R increased emission values
R damage to the catalytic converter R
engine damage
R malfunctions in the BlueTEC ®
exhaust gas
aftertreatment system
Assuring the purity of AdBlue ®
is particularly
important with respect to avoiding malfunctions in the BlueTEC exhaust gas aftertreatment sys-
tem.
If AdBlue ®
is pumped out of the AdBlue ®
tank,
e.g. during repair work, do not use this fluid to
refill the tank. The purity of the fluid can no lon-
ger be guaranteed.

Engine oil
General notes When handling engine oil, observe the important
safety notes on service products (Y page 337).
The quality of the engine oil is decisive for the
function and service life of an engine. After
extensive tests, Mercedes-Benz approves
engine oils that correspond to the current tech-
nical 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 Service Centre. Mercedes-Benz recom-
mends that you have the oil change carried out
at a qualified specialist workshop. Mercedes-
Benz approval is indicated on the oil container
by the inscription "MB-Freigabe" or "MB- 340

Approval" and the corresponding designation,
e.g. MB-Freigabe or MB-Approval 229.51.
You can call up an overview of approved engine
oils on the Internet at
http://bevo.mercedes-benz.com by entering
the designation, e.g. 229.5.
The table shows which engine oils have been
approved for your vehicle.
Petrol engines: in certain countries, different
engine oils can be used, provided that the main-
tenance intervals are reduced. For more infor-
mation, please contact a qualified specialist

G
WARNING
The brake fluid continuously absorbs mois-
ture from the air. This results in the boiling
point of the brake fluid lowering. If the boiling
point of the brake fluid is too low, vapour
pockets may form when the brakes are sub-
jected to a heavy load. This would impair brak- ing efficiency. There is a risk of an accident.
Have the brake fluid renewed at the prescri-
bed intervals.
When handling brake fluid, observe the impor-
tant safety notes on service products
(Y page 337).
The brake fluid change intervals can be found in the Service Booklet.
Only use brake fluid approved by Mercedes-
Benz in accordance with MB-Freigabe or MB-
Approval 331.0.
Information about approved brake fluid can be
obtained at any qualified specialist workshop or on the Internet at
http://bevo.mercedes-benz.co m.
i Have the brake fluid regularly replaced at a
qualified specialist workshop and the replace- ment confirmed in the Service Booklet. Coolant
Important safety notes G
WARNING
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 top up
the antifreeze. Make sure that antifreeze is
not spilled next to the filler neck. Thoroughly
clean the antifreeze from components before
starting the engine. Service products and capacities
