engine cannot be started, seek the
assistance of a workshop as soon as
possible.

Diesel particle filter % illuminates or flashes yellow.
The diesel particle filter requires
cleaning.
Continue driving until %
extinguishes.
Illuminates during driving
Control indicator % illuminates,
accompanied by a warning chime,
when the diesel particle filter is full. Start cleaning process as soon as
possible.
Flashes during driving
Control indicator % flashes when the
maximum filling level of the filter is
reached. Start cleaning process
immediately to avoid damage to theengine. A warning chime sounds
every 3 minutes until the cleaning process is complete.
Diesel particle filter 3 129, Stop-start

AdBlue
Y flashes yellow.
AdBlue level is low. Refill AdBlue as soon as possible, to avoid prevention of engine starts.
A corresponding message may also
appear in the Driver Information
Centre 3 91.

Illuminates
Tyre pressure loss. Stop immediately
and check tyre pressure.
A corresponding message also
appears on the Info-Display 3 92.Flashes
Fault in system or tyre without
pressure sensor mounted (e.g. spare wheel). After approx. one minute the
control indicator illuminates
continuously. A corresponding
message also appears on the Info-
Display.
Consult a workshop.
Tyre pressure monitoring system 3 183.
Engine oil pressure
I illuminates red.
Illuminates when the ignition is
switched on and extinguishes shortly
after the engine starts. If it does not
illuminate, seek the assistance of a
workshop.

142Driving and operatingEnsure the radiator core and the areabetween the radiator and intercooler/
oil cooler (where installed) is cleaned, to maintain proper cooling air flow.Check the radiator and cooler cores
for blockage (sand, silt etc.).
Check the tyre treads.
Clean and check the mechanical
parts of the vehicle, particularly the
following areas:
● Driveshafts, including sealing bellows
● Front brake calipers, pads and discs
● Front suspension
● Clutch fork sealing bellows
● Rear brake calipers, pads and discs
● Rear suspension
● Fuel tank and underguard
● Breathers, axles and fuel tank
● Load sensing valve
● Transfer box and underguard
● Engine oil pan and underguardObserve the following: ● Do not spray high-pressure water
directly at the vehicle seals
● The wheels must be removed to clean all mud and stones from the
brake calipers and to check
brake pad wear
● The areas on the upper side of the underguards must be clearedof stones, to prevent damage to
the engine oil pan and the fuel
tankBrakes
The brake system comprises two
independent brake circuits.
If a brake circuit fails, the vehicle can
still be braked using the other brake
circuit. However, braking effect is
achieved only when the brake pedal
is depressed firmly. Considerably
more force is needed for this. The
braking distance is extended. Seek
the assistance of a workshop before
continuing your journey.
When the engine is not running, the
support of the brake servo unit
disappears once the brake pedal has
been depressed once or twice.
Braking effect is not reduced, but
braking requires significantly greater
force. It is especially important to bear this in mind when being towed.
Control indicator R 3 85.
Antilock brake system
Antilock brake system (ABS)
prevents the wheels from locking.

160Vehicle careWe recommend the use of the same
grade of engine oil that was used at
the last oil change.
The engine oil level must not exceed the MAX mark on the dipstick.Caution
Overfilled engine oil must be
drained or suctioned out.
Capacities 3 211, Engine oil quality/
viscosity 3 202.
Fit the cap on straight and tighten it.
Control indicators for engine oil
pressure I 3 88, engine oil life ¢
3 89, and low engine oil S 3 89.
Once the engine oil has been
changed, the engine oil life monitor needs to be reset. Seek the
assistance of a workshop.
Engine coolant
The coolant provides freeze
protection down to approx. -28 °C. In
northern countries with very low
temperatures the factory filled coolant provides frost protection down to
approx. -37 °C.Caution
Only use approved antifreeze.
Coolant level
Caution
Too low a coolant level can cause engine damage.
If the cooling system is cold, the
coolant level should be between the
MIN and MAX marks. Top up if the
level is low.9 Warning
Allow the engine to cool before
opening the cap. Carefully open
the cap, relieving the pressure
slowly.
To top up use a 1:1 mixture of
released coolant concentrate mixed
with clean tap water. If no coolant
concentrate is available, use clean
tap water. Install the cap tightly. Have the coolant concentration checked
and have the cause of the coolant
loss remedied by a workshop.
Engine coolant temperature control
indicator W 3 87.

192Vehicle careIf this is not the case, carefully
lower the vehicle immediately and
reposition the jack. Raise the
vehicle until the wheel is just clear of the ground.
6. Unscrew wheel nuts completely and wipe clean with a cloth.
Do not grease the threads. Put
wheel nuts somewhere where the threads will not be soiled.
7. Change the wheel. Notes on spare wheel 3 193.
8. Screw on the wheel nuts and tighten slightly by hand by turningclockwise until wheel is held
against the hub.
9. Rotate wrench anticlockwise and lower vehicle to the ground.
10. Install the wheel wrench ensuring that it locates securely and tighten
each wheel nut in a crosswise
sequence. Tightening torque is
140 Nm.
11. Stow the replaced wheel 3 193
and the vehicle tools 3 179.
12. Check the tyre pressure of the installed tyre as soon as possible.
Have the defective tyre renewed and
replace temporary spare wheel with a full specification wheel without delay.

platform centrically under the recess
of the sill.
