Maintenance Booklet6IntroductionInterior filters (e.g. dust filter, recircu-
lating air filter, activated charcoal filter or
combination filter) are replaced accord-
ing to the maintenance intervals listed.
Under severe dust conditions, or with the
Climate Control frequently operating in
the air recirculation mode, the respective
filter should be replaced correspondingly
sooner.
Tire inspection - Your vehicle’s tires are
a critical component to overall vehicle
performance and vehicle stability. The
useful life of tires will vary and is
proportional to tire type, speed rating,
ambient conditions, tire loading, tire
inflation pressure, road surfaces, and
individual driving style, among other
factors. Therefore, Mercedes-Benz
recommends regular checks for wear and
proper inflation.
The first tire inspection, which includes
checking for proper inflation pressure
and tread condition, is at no charge pro-
vided it is performed at an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center prior to
5,000 miles on the vehicle odometer.
For your convenience, this Maintenance
Booklet contains a tire inspection confir-
mation page on which you can record the
date and mileage when tire inspections
were performed.
Tire rotation - Tire rotations can only be
performed on vehicles with the same tire
dimensions on all four wheels (e.g. winter
tires). In cases where your vehicle is
configured with staggered tire sizes
(different tire sizes, front vs. rear), tire
rotations are not possible.
If your vehicle’s tire configuration allows
for rotation, tire rotation should be
performed by observing a front-to-rear
pattern that will maintain the intended
rotational (spinning) direction of the tire
(on unidirectional tires, an arrow on the
sidewall indicates the intended rotation
or spinning direction of the tire) and in
accordance with the tire manufacturer’s
recommended intervals, or sooner at first
signs of irregular (uneven) tread wear.

Tire manufacturer’s rotation
recommendations will necessitate a tire
rotation at least once in between
maintenance services and at every
maintenance service based on
Mercedes-Benz SLR maintenance
intervals
.
The first tire rotation is at no charge pro-
vided it is performed at an authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center prior to
5,000 miles on the vehicle odometer.
For your convenience, this Maintenance
Booklet contains a tire rotation confirma-
tion page on which you can record the
date and mileage when tire rotations
were performed.
Spark Plugs should be replaced accord-
ing to schedule on page 57. Severe oper-
ating conditions (frequent starting and
stopping, excessive idling, sustained fast
highway driving) may call for spark plugs
to be replaced correspondingly sooner.Engine oils and oil filters are specifical-
ly tested for their suitability in our en-
gines and durability for our service
intervals. Therefore, only use approved
engine oils and oil filters required for ve-
hicles with Maintenance System. Con-
ventional petroleum-based oils must not
be used for vehicles equipped with the
Mercedes-Benz Maintenance System.
The following cases are not covered by
the Mercedes-Benz New Car Limited
Warranty:
• Using engine oils and oil filters of spec-
ification other than those expressly re-
quired for the Maintenance System.
• Changing of oil and oil filter at change
intervals longer than those called for
by the Maintenance System.
• Using any oil additives.
Mercedes-Benz recommends
MOBIL 1 OIL.
Use the MB sheet number 229.3 and only
SAE 5W-50 engine oils.
MB sheet numbers are printed on the out-
side of oil containers.

Tire inspection or rotation
If applicable to your vehicle’s tire configuration (see page 6), tire rotation should be performed in
accordance with the tire manufacturer’s recommended intervals, or sooner at first signs of irregular
(uneven) tread wear. Tire manufacturer’s rotation recommendations will necessitate a tire rotation at
least once in between maintenance services and at every maintenance service based on Mercedes-Benz
maintenance intervals.
Reminder:

First tire

provided at
no charge*
*This first tire inspection or rotation (if
applicable) at an authorized Mercedes-
Benz Center at any time up to 5,000
miles (vehicle odometer) is provided at
no charge. Please refer to the Service
and Warranty Information Booklet for full
details.
Tire rotation should be performed in accordance with the tire manufacturer’s recommendations in the Tire
Warranty Pamphlet included in your vehicle literature portfolio. However, tires should be rotated at the
first sign of irregular (uneven) tread wear, even if it occurs before the recommended rotation intervals, and
should be checked regularly for wear and proper inflation. Please note that the useful life of tires will vary
and is proportional to tire type, speed rating, ambient conditions, tire loading, tire inflation pressure, road
surfaces, and individual driving style, among other factors.
Should a tire rotation not be possible for your vehicle’s tire configuration an authorized Mercedes-Benz
Center will check your tires for proper inflation pressure and perform a tread inspection.
The first tire inspection or rotation (if applicable) occurring at an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center at any
time up to 5,000 miles (vehicle odometer) is provided at no charge.
