GWARNING
Opening the hood when the engine is over-
heated or when there is afire in the engine
compartment coul dexpose you to hot gases
or other service products. There is arisk of
injury.
Let an overheated engine cool downb efore
opening the hood. If there is afire in the

and contact the fire department.
Notes on the oil level
Depending on you rdriving style ,the vehicle
consumes up to 0.9 US qt (0.8 liters )ofoil per
600 mile s(1000 km). The oil consumption may
be higher than this whe nthe vehicle is new or if
you frequently drive at high engine speeds.
Depending on the engine, the oil dipstick may be
in ad ifferent location.
When checking the oil level:
Rpark the vehicle on alevels urface
Rthe engine should be switched off for approx-
imately five minutes if the engine is at normal
operating temperature
Rif the engine is not at normal operating tem-
perature, e.g. if the engine wa sonly started
briefly,w aita pproximately 30 minutes before
carrying out the measurement
Checking the oil level usingt he oil dip-
stick
Example: engine compartment
On the G63AMG, the oil levelc an be checked
using the oil dipstick.
XPul loil dipstick :out of the dipstick guide
tube.
XWipeo ff oil dipstick :.
XSlowly slide oil dipstick :into the guide tube
to the stop and take it out again after approx-
imately three seconds.
If the levelisb etween MIN mark =and MAX
mark ;,the oil levelisc orrect.
XIf the oil levelh as dropped to MIN mark =or
below, add 1.1 US qt (1.0 l)of engine oil.
On all other models, the on-board computer
must be used to check the engine oil level.
Checking the oil level using the on-
board computer
G5 50: the oil level can only be checked using
the on-board computer.
XMake sure that the SmartKey is in position 2
in the ignition lock.

Adding engine oil
!Use only engine oils and oil filters that are
approved for vehiclesw ithaservice system. A
list of the engine oils and oil filters that have
been tested and approved in accordance with
Mercedes-Benz Specifications for Service
Products is available at any authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center.
The following cause engine failure or damage
to the exhaust system:
RUse of engine oils and oil filters that have
not been expressly approved for the service
system
RReplacement of engine oil and oil filter after
the replacement interval specifiedbyt he
service system has expired
RUse of engine oil additives
!Do not add too much oil. If the oil level is
above the "max" mark on the dipstick, too
much oil has been added. This can leadt o
damage to the engine or the catalytic con-
verter. Have excess oil siphoned off.
HEnvironmental note
When adding oil, take care not to spilla ny. If
oil enters the soil or waterways ,itisharmful to
the environment.
Example: engine oil cap
XTurn cap :counter-clockwise and remove it.
XAdd the amount of engine oil required.
Observe the specifications in the on-board com-
puter when doing so or fill carefully to the max-
imum mark on the oil dipstick.
The difference betweent he minimum mark and
the maximum mark on the oil dipstick is approx-
imatel y2.1 US qt (2.0 l).
XReplace cap :on the fille rneck and tighten
clockwise.
Ensur ethat the cap locks into place securely.

Climate control system refrigerant
Important safety notes
The climate control system of your vehicle is fil-
led with refrigerant R‑ 134a.
The instruction label regarding the refrigerant
type used can be found on the radiator cross
member.
!Only the refrigerant R‑134a and the PAG oil
approved by Mercedes-Benz may be used.
The approved PAG oil may not be mixed with
any other PAG oil that is not approved for
R-134a refrigerant.O therwise, the climate
control system may be damaged.
Servicew ork, such as refilling with refrigerant or
replacing component parts, may only be carried
out by aqualified specialist workshop. All appli-
