thawe dbattery checked at aqualified specialist workshop.
Do not use arapidc harging device to start the vehicle. If yourv ehicle's battery is discharged, the
engine can be jump-started from another vehicl eorfromasecond battery using jump leads.
Observe the following points:
R The battery is not accessible in all vehicles. If the other vehicle's battery is not accessible, jump-
start the vehicl eusing adonor battery or ajump-starting device.
R Do not start the engine if the battery is frozen. Let the battery thaw first.
R Jump-starting may be performe donly using batterie swithanominal voltag eof12V.
R Use only jump leads that have asufficient cross-section and insulated terminal clamps.
R If the battery is full ydischarged, leave the battery that is being used to jump-start connected for
af ew minutes before attempting to start. This charge sthe empty battery alittle.
R Make sure that the two vehicles do not touch.
Make sure that:
R The jump leads are not damaged.
R Non-insulated parts of the terminal clamp sdonot come into contact with other metal parts while
the jump leads are connected to the battery.
R The jump leads cannot come into contact with parts that can move when the engine is running,
such as the V-belt pulley or the fan.

WARNING
Safety-relevant function sare restricted or not
available if:
R the engine is not running.
R the brake system or the power steering is
malfunctioning
R the voltag esupply or the vehicle's electrical
system is malfunctioning.
If yourv ehicleist owed,s ignificantly greater
force may be required to steer the vehicl eor
to brake. There is arisk of an accident.
In such circumstances, use atowing bar.
Make sure that the steering is moving freely
before towing. G
WARNING
If the steering whee llock is engaged, the vehi-
cle can no longer be steered .There is arisk of
an accident.
Always switch on the ignitio nwhen towing
with atow rope or atowing bar. G
WARNING
When towing or tow-starting another vehicle
and its weight is greater than the permissible gross weight of yourv ehicle, the:
R towing eye may be torn off
R car/trailer combination may swerve or
even overturn
There is arisk of an accident.
When towing or tow-starting another vehicle,
its weight should not be greater than the per- missible gross weight of yourv ehicle.
Detail sonthe permissible gross vehicl eweight
of yourv ehiclecan be found on the vehicl eiden-
tification plate (Y page249).
! You may tow the vehicl
efor am aximu mof
50km. Atowing spee dof50km/h must not
be exceeded.
For towing distances over 50 km, the entire
vehicl emust be lifted up and transported.
! Only secure the tow cabl
eortowing bar to
the towing eyes. You coul dotherwise damage
the vehicle.
! Observe the following points when towing
with atow rope:
R Secure the tow rope on the same side on
both vehicles.
R Make sure that the tow rope is not longer

WARNING
If yo umanipulate, bridge or replace afaulty
fuse with afuse of ahigher amperage ,the
electric cables coul dbeoverloaded. This may
result in afire. There is arisk of an accident
and injury.
Always replace faulty fuses with specified new fuses of the correct amperage. The fuses in your vehicle disconnect fault
ycir-
cuits. If afuse blows, all the components in the
circuit and their functions will fail.
Blown fuses must be replaced with fuses of the same rating, which you can recognise by the
colour and fuse rating. The fuse ratings are listed
in the fuse allocation chart (Y page 233).
If the newly inserted fuse also blows, have the
cause traced and rectified at aqualified special-
ist workshop, e.g. aMercedes-Benz Service
Centre.
! Only use fuses that have been approved for
Mercedes-Benz vehicles and which have the
correc tfuse rating for the system concerned.
Otherwise, components or systems could be
damaged.
! Make sure that no moisture can enter the
fuse box when the cover is open.
! When closing the cover, make sure that it is
lying correctly on the fuse box. Moisture seep-
ing in or dirt could otherwise impair the oper-
ation of the fuses. Bef

WARNING
If you do not position the jack correctl yatthe
appropriate jacking point of the vehicle, the
jack coul dtip over with the vehicl eraised.
There is arisk of injury.
Only position the jack at the appropriate jack-
ing point of the vehicle. The base of the jack
must be positioned vertically,d irectly under
the jacking point of the vehicle.
! Only position the jack at the appropriate
jacking point of the vehicle. Otherwise, you
coul ddamage the vehicle.
Observe the following whenr aisingthe vehi-
cle:
R Use only the vehicle-specific jack that has
been tested and approved by Mercedes-Benz
to rais ethe vehicle. If the jack is used incor-
rectly, it coul dtip over while the vehicl eis

R The jack is designed only to rais ethe vehicle
for ashort time while awhee lisb eing
changed .Itisnot permissible to use it to per-
form maintenance work under the vehicle. R
Avoid changing the whee lonuphilland down-
hill slopes.
R Before raising the vehicle, secur eitagainst
rolling away by applying the parking brake and
positioning whee lchocks. Do not release the
parking brake whil ethe vehicl eisraised.
R The jack must be place donafirm, flatand
non-slip surface. On aloo se surface, alarge,

WARNING
If you mix diesel fuel with petrol, the flash
point of this fuel mixture is lower than that of pure diesel fuel.W hen the engine is running,
components in the exhaust system may over-
heatu nnoticed. There is arisk of fire.
Never refue lwith 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 leadtoi ncreased wear
as wellasd amage 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.
! Vehiclesw
ith diesel particle filters: in
countries outside the EU, only use low sulphur
Euro diesel with asulphurc ontent of under
50 ppm. Otherwise, the emission control sys- tem could be damaged.
You will usually find information aboutt he fuel
quality on the pump. If you cannot find the label
on the petrol pump, ask the filling station staff.
Information on refuelling (Y page 109).
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 suitablef or operation in colder
climatic conditions.

properties and fuel types with low-tempera-
ture resistance can be obtained from oil com- panies, e.g. at filling stations. AdBlue

General notes When handling engin
eoil, observe the important
safety notes on service products (Y page 250).
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 curren ttech-
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 Servic eCentre. Mercedes-Benz recom-
mends that you have the oil change carried out
at aq ualified specialist workshop. Mercedes-
Benz approval is indicated on the oil container
by the inscription „MB-Freigabe“ or „MB
Approval“ and the corresponding designation,
e.g. MB-Freigabeor MB Approval 229.51.
You can call up an overview of approved engine oils on the Internet at

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 aheavy load. This would impair brak-
ing efficiency. There is arisk of an accident.
Have the brake flui drenewe datthe prescri-
bed intervals.
Comply with the important safety notes for ser- vice products when handling brake fluid
(Y page2 50).
Only use brake flui dapproved by Mercedes-
Benz according to MB-Freigabe or MB-Approval

The coolant is amixture of water and anti-
freeze/anti-corrosion additive. It is responsible
for the following:
R anti-corrosion protection
R antifreeze protection
R raising the boiling point
If antifreeze/corrosio ninhibitor is present in the
correct concentration, the boiling point of the
coolant willbea round 130 †. Service products and capacities
