Maintenance
General notes
HEnvironmental note
Observe measures to protect the environ-
ment when working on the vehicle. You must
observe the legal requirements when dispos-
ing of service products, e.g. engine oil. This
also includes all components, e.g. filters,
which have come into contact with service
products. Any qualified specialist workshop
can provide information about this.
Dispose of empty containers, cleaning cloths
and care products in an environmentally
responsible manner. Comply with the instruc-
tions for use of the care products.
Do not run the engine for longer than neces-
sary when the vehicle is stationary.
Before carrying out maintenance measures and
repairs, you must read the following documents
relating to maintenance measures and repairs:
Rrelevant sections of the technical documen-
tation such as the Operator's Manual and
workshop information
Rlegal stipulations such as work safety regula-
tions and accident prevention regulations
While working under the vehicle, you must
secure the vehicle on jack stands with sufficient load capacity.
Never use a vehicle jack instead of stands. The
jack is designed only to raise the vehicle for a
short time when changing a wheel. It is not
suited for performing maintenance work under
the vehicle.
Please also refer to the notes about qualified
specialist workshops (
Ypage 31).
The scope and regularity of the inspection and
maintenance work primarily depend on the
often diverse operating conditions. Specialist
knowledge beyond the scope of this Operator's
Manual is required when carrying out testing
and maintenance work. This work should only be
carried out by trained staff.
The vehicle Maintenance Booklet describes the scope and frequency of maintenance work and
contains additional notes on the Limited War-
ranty. You will find information about service
products approved by Mercede s-Benz a
ndcapacities under "Service products and capaci-
ties" (
Ypage 304)
Maintenance services must be carried out in
accordance with the provisions and recommen- dations in the Maintenance Booklet. Not doing
so could void the warranty claim and lead to
refusal of goodwill gestures after the manufac-
turer has submitted a damage report.
Observe the information under "Mercedes-Benz
genuine parts" (
Ypage 33).
Service interval display
General notes
The service interval display informs you of the
next service due date. Information on the type of
service and service intervals can be found in the
Maintenance Booklet.
iThe service interval display does not provide
information about the engine oil level. The
service interval display should therefore not
be confused with the engine oil level display.
For example, the display shows one of the fol-
lowing service messages for a few seconds:
RService A in .. days
RService A Dueor Service A Due
RServ. A Exceed. by .. Days
Then either the remaining time or distance until
the next service due date is displayed. If the
service due date has been exceeded, the
elapsed time or distance traveled after the over-
due service date is shown. The letter in the dis-
play message indicates which service is due. A
stands for a minor service andBfor a major ser-
vice.
A qualified specialist workshop, e.g. an author-
ized Mercedes-Benz Commercial Van Center,
will reset the service interval display after the
service work has been carried out. You can also
obtain further information on maintenance
work, for example.
The prescribed service interval is based on nor- mal vehicle use. Service work will need to be
performed more frequently than prescribed if
the vehicle is operated under more arduous con-
ditions or with higher loads. Such arduous con-
ditions include:
Rregular city driving with frequent intermediate
stops
Rdriving predominantly short distances
