! Do not drive in the overrevving range, as
this could damage the engine. H
Environmental note
Avoid driving at high engine speeds. This
unnecessarily increases the fuel consumption of your vehicle and harms the environment asa result of increased emissions.
The red band in the tachometer indicates the engine's overrevving range.
To protect the engine, the fuel supply is inter-
rupted when the red band is reached. Outside temperature
You should pay special attention to road con-
ditions when temperatures are around the
freezing point. On vehicles without steering wheel buttons
(Y page 182) and on vehicles with steering
wheel buttons (Y page 187), the outside tem-
perature display is in the display.
Changes in the outside temperature are dis-
played after a short delay. Speedometer

ometer for vehicles without steering wheel
buttons under (Y page 182) and for vehicles

Washer fluid
G
WARNING
Windshield washer concentrate could ignite if it comes into contact with hot engine compo-
nents or the exhaust system. There is a risk of
fire and injury.
Make sure that no windshield washer con-
centrate is spilled next to the filler neck.
! Only use washer fluid that is suitable for
plastic lamp lenses, e.g. MB SummerFit or
MB WinterFit. Unsuitable washer fluid
could damage the plastic lenses of the
headlamps. Example: washer fluid reservoir
Add windshield washer concentrate to the
washer fluid all year round. Observe the infor- mation on washer fluid in the "Technical data"
section (Y page 326).
Adding washer fluid
X Mix the washer fluid to the appropriate mix-
ing ratio in a container beforehand.
X Open the hood (Y page 248).
X Pull cap 0043on the washer fluid reservoir
upwards at the tab.
X Add the premixed washer fluid.
X Press cap 0043onto the filler neck until it
engages audibly.
X Close the hood. Fuel system
Draining the fuel filter G
WARNING
Fuel is highly flammable. Improper handling of fuel creates a risk of fire and explosion.
Avoid fire, open flames, smoking and creatingsparks under all circumstances. Switch off the
ignition and auxiliary heating before carrying
out work to the fuel system. Always wear pro- tective gloves. H
Environmental note
Dispose of the water-fuel mixture in an envi-
ronmentally responsible manner.
! When the
00B8indicator lamp lights up,
drain the fuel filter with water separator
immediately. Otherwise, the engine may be
damaged. If the
00B8 indicator lamp in the instrument
cluster goes on, drain fuel filter with water
separator 0087immediately.
i We recommend that you have this main-
tenance work carried out at a qualified spe-
cialist workshop.
X Park the vehicle safely and secure it from
rolling away.
X Switch off the auxiliary heating system .
X Switch off the engine.
X Open the hood (Y page 248).
X Place a suitable receptacle under drain

must be used in the system all year round to
ensure anti-corrosion protection and a raised
boiling point – even in countries with high
outside temperatures.
To prevent damage to the engine cooling sys- tem, use only approved corrosion inhibitor/
antifreeze that comply with the Mercedes-
Benz Specifications for Service Products.
We recommend corrosion inhibitor/anti-
freeze that meets the requirements in MB
Specifications for Service Products Sheet
Number 325.
Check the antifreeze/corrosion inhibitor con- centration in the coolant every six months.
The percentage of corrosion inhibitor/anti-
freeze additive in the engine cooling system
should:
R be at least 50%. This way, the engine cool-
ing system is protected against freezing
down to approximately -35 ‡ (-37 †).
R not exceed 55% (antifreeze protection
down to -49 ‡ [-45 †]). Otherwise, heat
will not be dissipated as effectively.
If there has been coolant loss, do not refill
only with water. If the vehicle has lost coolant,
add equal parts water and corrosion inhibi-
tor/antifreeze additive. The water used as
part of the coolant mixture must fulfill certain requirements; these are usually fulfilled by
drinking water. If the water quality is not suf-ficient, you must treat the water.

When handling washer fluid, observe the
important safety notes on service products
(Y page 318).
Mixing ratio Add windshield washer concentrate to the
washer fluid all year round. Adapt the mixing
ratio to the ambient temperature.
At temperatures above freezing:
X Fill up the washer fluid reservoir with a mix-
ture of water and windshield washer con-
centrate, e.g. Summerwash to prevent
smearing.
At temperatures below freezing: X Fill up the washer fluid reservoir with a mix-
ture of water and windshield washer con-
centrate, e.g. Winterwash if there is a dan- ger of frost.
This prevents washer fluid from freezing on the windshield.

General notes
The following section contains important
technical data for your vehicle. Your vehicle
registration documents contain vehicle-spe-
cific and equipment-dependent technical
data such as vehicle dimensions and vehicle
weights. Cargo tie down points and carrier sys-
tems
Cargo tie down points General notes
! Observe the information on the maximum
loading capacity of the individual cargo tie-
down points.
If you use several cargo tie-down points to
secure a load, you must always take the
maximum loading capacity of the weakest
cargo tie-down point into account.
If you brake hard, for example, the forces
acting could be up to several times the
weight force of the load. Always use multi-
ple cargo tie-down points in order to dis-
tribute the force absorption. Load the
anchorages evenly.
You will find further information about cargo
tie down points and cargo tie-down rings in
the "Transporting" section (Y page 242).
