Index

Apart from driving style, consumption is
dependent on many factors such as:
R load
R tyre pressure
R cold start
R selected route
R numbe rofconsumers that are switched on
These variable are not included in the ECO
display.
Your driving style is evaluated on the basis of
the following three categories:
Acceleration (evaluation of all accelera-
tion processes) The bar fills up: The bar depletes:
Moderate accelera-
tion, espeically at
higher speeds Sporty acceleration
Constant (evaluation of the driving style
at any point in time)
The bar fills up: The bar depletes:
Constant speed and
avoidance of unnec-
essary acceleration
and deceleration
processes Fluctuations in
speed
Coasting (evaluation of total decelera-
tion)
The bar fills up: The bar depletes:
Drive with care,
keep your distance
from the vehicle
ahead and remove
your foot from the
accelerator pedal in
good time: the vehi-
cle can coast with-
out braking Frequent braking i
An economical driving style depends in
particular on driving at moderate speeds.
Achieving a higher value in the categories
"Acceleration" and "Constant":
R observe the gearshift recommendations.
R drive in drive program E(vehicles with
automatic transmission).
i On long journeys at constant speed, such
as on the motorway, only the "Constant"
category bar changes.
i The ECO display sums up the driving
behaviour from the start to the end of the
journey. As a result, the bars change
dynamically at the start of the journey. Dur-
ing long journeys there are fewer changes.
For more dynamic changes, perform a man-
ual reset.
For further information on ECO display, see
(Y page 250). Short journeys
! Vehicles with adiesel particle filter: if
the vehicle is mostly driven for short dis-
tances, it is possible that malfunctions may
occur during the automatic cleaning of the
diesel particle filter. This may lead to fuel
collecting in the engine oil and cause
engine failure. Therefore, if you frequently
drive short distances, you should take a 20
minute trip on a motorway or rural road at
least every 500km. Brakes
Important safety notes G
WARNING
If you shift down on a slippery road surface in
an attempt to increase the engine's braking
effect, the drive wheels could lose their grip.
This increases the risk of skidding and having
an accident. 186

Information abou
tService Resetting the ASSYST PLUS service inter-
val display
!
If the ASSYST PLUS service interval dis-
play has been inadvertently reset, this set-
ting can be corrected at a qualified special-
ist workshop.
Have service work carried out as described
in the Service Booklet. This may otherwise
lead to increased wear and damage to the
major assemblies or the vehicle.
Aq ualified specialist workshop, e.g. a
Mercedes-Ben zService Centre, will reset the
ASSYST PLUS service interval display after
the service work has been carried out. You
can also obtain further information on main-
tenance work, for example.
Special service requirements
Arduous operating conditions or increased
loads on the vehicle will require some service
work to be performed more often than for a
vehicle in normal use. Such arduous condi-
tions include regular city driving with frequent
intermediate stops and use in mountainous
terrain or on poor road surfaces.
For example, if the vehicle is used under ardu-
ous operating conditions, have air filters,
engine oil and oil filters changed frequently
and chec kthe wheels often.F urther informa-
tion can be obtained at a qualified specialist
workshop, e.g. a Mercedes-Ben zService
Centre.
Driving abroad
An extensive Mercedes-Benz Service network
is also available in other countries. The
Service Hotline's curren ttelephone numbers
for use when you are abroad are to be found
in the "Mercedes-Benz Service24h" section
of the Service Booklet. AdBlue

i For BlueTEC vehicles only. To function properly, BlueTEC exhaust gas
aftertreatment must be operated with the
reducing agent AdBlue
®
. AdBlue ®
is topped
up as part of the service. Under normal oper-
ating conditions, a full tank of AdBlue ®
should
last until the nexts ervice due date.
Depending on how and where the vehicle is
used, there may be an increase in the
AdBlue ®
consumption, resulting in the next
service due date being brought forward.
Certain display messages show that
AdBlue ®
must be topped up, e.g.
Refill AdBlue at workshop See Own‐ er's Manual
Refill AdBlue at workshop No start
in .. km

arning tone also sounds.
You can no longer start the engine when the
AdBlue ®
supply has been used up
(Y page 281).
! Have the AdBlue ®
tank topped up at a
qualified specialist workshop only. The
vehicle may otherwise be damaged or
soiled.
Before taking a trip with your vehicle outside
Europe, have the AdBlue ®
supply checked at
a qualified specialist workshop. If necessary,
have AdBlue ®
topped up. Before a longer stay
outside of Europe, consult a qualified special-
ist workshop.
Observe the notes on AdBlue ®
(Y page 440).
You can obtain further informatio nabout
