WARNING
Coolant contains glycol and is therefore toxic.
Do not swallow the coolant. See a doctor
immediately if you swallow coolant.
Make sure that coolant does not come into
contact with skin, eyesorc lothing. In case of
contac twith eyes, rinse immediately with
plenty of clean water .Clean affected areas of
skin and clothing with soap and water
immediately. Change any affected clothing
immediately. G
WARNING
If antifreeze comes into contact with hot
components in the engine compartment, it
may ignite. There is a risk of fire and injury.
Let the engine cool down before you add
antifreeze. Make sure that antifreeze is not
spilled nex tto the filler neck.T horoughly
clean the antifreeze from components before
starting the engine.
! Take care not to spill any coolant on
painted surfaces. You could otherwise
damage the paintwork. Example: cap and coolant expansion tank
Checking the coolant level
X
Stop your vehicle as far away from traffic
as possible on level ground.
X Switch off the engine.
X Secure the vehicle to prevent it from rolling
away.
X Open the hood (Y page 240). X
Slowly turn cap 0005half a turn counter-
clockwise to allow excess pressure to
escape.
X Turn cap 0005further and remove it.
X Check the coolant level.
If the coolant reaches the maximum mark
on coolant expansion tank 0006, there is
enough coolant in coolant expansion
tank 0006.
Adding coolant
X If the coolant drops under the minimum
mark on coolant expansion tank 0006, add
coolant to the maximum mark.
Observe the information on coolant
mixture ratio and water quality in the
"Technical data" section (Y page 324). To
prevent damage to the engine cooling
system, use only approved corrosion
inhibitor/antifreeze that comply with the
Mercedes-Benz Specifications for Service
Products.
X Replace cap 0005and turn it clockwise to
tighten.
X Start the engine.
X After approximately 5minutes, switch off
the engine and allow it to cool down.
X Check the coolan tlevel again and add
coolant if necessary.
X Close the hood. Brake fluid
G
WARNING
Brake fluid is hazardous to health. Do not
swallow brake fluid. See adoctor immediately
if you swallow brake fluid.
Make sure that brake fluid does not come into
contact with skin, clothing or eyes. Rinse
affected areas with plenty of clean water and
consult a doctor if necessary.
Always wear gloves and eye protection when
topping up brake fluid. Engine compartment

Useful information
This Operator's Manual describes all models
as well as standard and optional equipment
of your vehicle that were available at the time
of going to print. Country-specific variations
are possible. Note that your vehicle may not
be equipped with all of the described
functions. This also applies to systems and
functions relevant to safety.
Read the information on qualified specialist
workshops (Y page 26). Where will I find...?
Vehicle tool kit
General notes The vehicle tool kit is in the stowage
compartment in the footwell on the co-
driver's side. For vehicles without a spare
wheel, the Premium tire sealant and the tire
inflation compressor are in the stowage
compartment in the right-hand door sill.
The vehicle tool kit consists of:
R a towing eye
R a lug wrench
R 2o pen-end wrenches
R a screwdriver with Torx ,Phillips and slotted
bits
i Vehicles without a spare wheel are not
equipped with the tools needed to change
a wheel when they leave the factory, e.g. a
jack. In the event of a flat tire, these
vehicles are equipped with a tire sealant
and a tire inflation compressor. Country-
specific variations are possible. Stowage compartment in the co-
driver's footwell Unlocking and removing the cover
X

X Remove vehicle tool kit 0024.
X Pull up quick-release lever 0025and unhook
the retaining strap of jack 0023.
X Lift jack 0023upwards out of the holder.
i When stowing away the jack, place it in

chassis
Your vehicle may be equipped with rear
towing eye 0006. If you tow or tow-start a
vehicle, attach the towing device to rear
towing eye 0006.
If your vehicle is equipped with a trailer tow
hitch, attach the towing device to the trailer
tow hitch (Y page 168).
Installing the front towing eye
X Take the towing eye and screwdriver from
the vehicle tool kit (Y page 264).
X Press cover 0005and remove cover 0005from
the opening.
You will see the fixture for the towing eye.
X Screw in the towing eye clockwise to the
stop.
X Insert screwdriver into the towing eye and

X
Remove the screwdriver from the vehicle
tool kit.
X Insert the screwdriver into the towing eye
and turn the screwdriver counter-
clockwise.
X Unscrew the towing eye.
X Insert cover 0005with the lug at the bottom
and press it in at the top until it engages.
X Place the towing eye and screwdriver back
in the vehicle tool kit. Towing in the event of malfunctions
With transmission damage !
Always use new bolts when installing the
propeller shafts.
If the vehicle has transmission damage, have
the propeller shaft removed before towing
away.
In the event of damage to the electrical
system If the battery is defective, the automatic
transmission will be locked in position
P. In
order to be able to shift the automatic
transmission to position N, you must provide
power to the vehicle's 12 Velectrical system
in the same way as when jump-starting
(Y page 267).
Have the vehicle transported on a transporter
or trailer. Towing with the front or rear axle
raised
General notes !
The ignition must be switched off if the
vehicle is being towed with the front or rear
axle raised. Otherwise, ESP ®
