technical data MERCEDES-BENZ E-CLASS ESTATE 2012 Owner's Manual

!
Only add coolant that has been premixed
with the desired antifreeze protection. You
could otherwise damage the engine.
Further information on coolants can be
found in the Mercedes-Benz Specifications
for Service Products, MB Specifications for
Service Products 310.1, e.g. on the Inter-
net at http://bevo.mercedes-benz.com.
Or contact a qualified specialist workshop.
! Always use a suitable coolant mixture,
even in countries where high temperatures
prevail.
Otherwise, the engine cooling system is not
sufficiently protected from corrosion and
overheating.
! The engine cooling system is filled with
coolant, which must be renewed after
15 years or after 250,000 kilometres at the
latest.
The coolant is a mixture of water and anti-
freeze/corrosion inhibitor. It performs the
following tasks:
R anti-corrosion protection
R antifreeze protection
R raising the boiling point
If antifreeze/corrosion inhibitor is present in
the correct concentration, the boiling point of
the coolant during operation will be around
130 †.
The antifreeze/corrosion inhibitor concentra-
tion in the engine cooling system should:
R be at least 50 %. This will protect the engine
cooling system against freezing down to
around -37 †.
R not exceed 55 % (antifreeze protection
down to -45 †). Hea twill otherwise not be
dissipated as effectively.
If the vehicle has lost coolant, top it up with
equal amounts of water and antifreeze/cor-
rosio ninhibitor. Mercedes-Benz recom-
mends an antifreeze/corrosion inhibito rcon-
centrate in accordance with MB Specifica-
tions for Service Products 310.1. The coolant is checked at every maintenance
interval at a qualified specialist workshop.
i
When the vehicle is first delivered, it is fil-
led with a coolant mixture that ensures
adequate antifreeze and corrosion protec-
tion. Windscreen and headlam

Important safety notes G
WARNING
Windscreen washer fluid/antifreeze is highly
flammable. Avoid spilling windscreen washer
fluid/antifreeze on hot engine components as
it can ignite and burn. Severe burns could be
the result.
! Only use washer fluid that is suitable for
plastic lamp lenses, e.g. MB SummerFit or
MB WinterFit. Unsuitable washer fluid
could damage the plastic lense softhe
headlamps.
! Do not use distilled or de-ionised water in
the washer fluid reservoir. Otherwise, the
level sensor may be damaged.
! Only the washer fluids SummerFit and
WinterFit can be mixed. Otherwise, the
spraying nozzles could become blocked.
At temperatures above freezing:
X Fill the washer fluid reservoir with a mixture
of water and washer fluid, e.g. MB Sum-
merFit.
Mix 1 part MB SummerFit to 100 parts water. Service products and capacities
443Technical data Z

At temperatures below freezing:
X
Fill the washe rfluid reservoir with a mixture
of water and washer fluid, e.g. MB Winter-
Fit.
Adapt the mixing ratio to the outside temper-
ature.
R Down to Ò10 †: mix 1 part MB WinterFit
with 2parts water.
R Down to Ò20 †: mix 1 part MB WinterFit
with 1 part water.
R Down to Ò29 †: mix 2 parts MB WinterFit
with 1 part water.
i Add washe rfluid concentrate, e.g. MB
SummerFit or MB WinterFit, to the washer
fluid all year round. Vehicle data
General notes
Please note that for the specified vehicle
data:
R the heights specified may vary as a result
of:
-tyres
- load
- conditio nofthe suspension
- optional equipment
R items of optional equipment increase the
unladen weight and reduce the maximum
payload. The unladen weight is specified in
accordance with EC directive and includes:
-driver (68 kg)
- luggage (7 kg)
- all fluids (fuel tank 90% full)
R vehicle-specific weight information can be
found on the vehicle identification plate
(Y page 435).
R only for certain countries: you can find vehi-
cle-specific vehicle data in the COC docu-
ments (CERTIFICATE OF CONFORMITY).

24 GHz radar sensor system (country overview)
The 24 GHz rada rsensor system requires separate approval for each country. If you are driving
in a country in which the radar sensor system is not approved, you must deactivate the system
using the on-board computer (Y page 262).
The current country overview can be obtained from a Mercedes-Benz Service Centre or on
the Internet at: http://www.mercedes-benz.de/betriebsanleitung.
Vehicles with anavigation system: the radar sensor system is deactivated automatically
near radio telescope facilities. Adisplay message appears in the multifunction display to tell
you that the radar sensor system is being switched off (Y page 283).
The currently active systems are automatically deactivated:
R DISTRONIC PLUS (Y page 195)
R Blind Spot Assist (Y page 225)
R Active Blind Spot Assist (Y page 229)
R BAS PLUS (Y page 71)
R PRE-SAFE ®
Brake (Y page 76)
If deactivation does not occur automatically, you must deactivate the radar sensor system
using the on-board computer (Y page 262).
Vehicles withou tnavigation and vehicles for Australia: you must deactivate the radar
sensor system using the on-board computer whe nyou are near a radio telescope facility
(Y page 262). 24 GHz radar sensor system (country overview)
