272Vehicle care
Pull out the dipstick, wipe it clean,
reinsert fully, pull out and read the
engine oil level.
When the engine oil level has
dropped to the MIN mark, top-up
engine oil.
Caution
Do not allow the engine oil level to drop below the minimum level!
We recommend the use of the same
type of engine oil that was used at the
last change.
Between the MIN and MAX marks a
volume of approx. 1.5 - 2.0 l can be
filled in.
The engine oil level must not exceed the maximum mark MAX on the
dipstick.
Caution
Overfilled engine oil must be
drained or suctioned out. If the oil exceeds the maximum level, do
not start the vehicle and contact a
workshop.
To prevent spillage when
replenishing the engine oil, we
recommend using a funnel. Ensure
funnel is securely located onto the
filler pipe.
A stabilisation of the engine oil
consumption will not take place until
the vehicle has been driven several
thousand kilometres. Only then can
the actual degree of consumption be
established.
If consumption exceeds more than
0.6 l every 1000 km after this running-
in period, consult a workshop.
Fit the cap on straight and tighten it.
Engine coolant
The factory filled coolant provides
freeze protection down to approx.
-28 °C.

4. Unscrew wheel bolts / nuts completely and wipe clean with a
cloth.
Put wheel bolts / nuts somewhere
where the threads will not be
soiled.
5. Change the wheel.
6. Screw in the wheel bolts / nuts. Separately supplied bolts must beused for the temporary spare
wheel. These are allowed only for the temporary spare wheel. Refer
to an label on the temporary spare
wheel.
7. Lower vehicle.
8. Install the wheel wrench (depending on vehicle, attach
wheel wrench to adapters)
ensuring that it is securely located and tighten each wheel bolt / nut
in a crosswise sequence.
Tightening torque is: 172 Nm
(Front-wheel drive), 235 Nm(Rear-wheel drive with twin rear
wheels), 264 Nm (Rear-wheel
drive with single rear wheels).
9. Refit wheel cover. Rear-wheel drive, with twin rear
wheels: Install the tyre valve
extender to the inner rear wheel
before refitting the wheel cover.
Note
If applicable, fit anti-theft bolts
nearest the tyre valve (otherwise it
may not be possible to refit the wheel
cover).
10. Stow the replaced wheel 3 301
and the vehicle tools 3 290.
11. Have the new wheel balanced on the vehicle. Check the tyre
pressure of the installed tyre
3 317 and also the wheel bolt /
nut torque as soon as possible.
Have the defective tyre renewed or
repaired.
Spare wheel
The spare wheel can be classified as
a temporary spare wheel depending
on the size compared to the othermounted wheels and country
regulations. In this case a permissible maximum speed applies, even
though no label at the spare wheel
indicates this.Caution
The use of a spare wheel that is smaller than the other wheels or in
combination with winter tyres
could affect driveability. Have the
defective tyre replaced as soon as
possible.
The spare wheel is held under the
vehicle frame using a winch and
secured by tightening a cable using
the wheel wrench and adapters
(depending on vehicle).
It may be necessary to jack the
vehicle up to gain access to the spare
wheel on a fully loaded vehicle with a flat rear tyre.

310Vehicle careUnderbody
Some areas of the vehicle underbody
have a PVC undercoating while other critical areas have a durable
protective wax coating.
After the underbody is washed, check
the underbody and have it waxed if
necessary.
Bitumen / rubber materials could
damage the PVC coating. Have
underbody work carried out by a
workshop.
Before and after winter, wash the
underbody and have the protective
wax coating checked.
Towing equipment
Do not clean the coupling ball bar with a steam-jet or high-pressure jet
cleaner.Interior care
Interior and upholstery Only clean the vehicle interior,
including the instrument panel fascia
and panelling, with a dry cloth or
interior cleaner.
Clean leather upholstery with clear
water and a soft cloth. In case of
heavy soiling, use leather care.
The instrument cluster and the
displays should only be cleaned using
a soft damp cloth. If necessary use a
weak soap solution.
Clean fabric upholstery with a
vacuum cleaner and brush. Remove
stains with an upholstery cleaner.
Clothing fabrics may not be
colourfast. This could cause visible discolourations, especially on light-
coloured upholstery. Removable
stains and discolourations should be
cleaned as soon as possible.
Clean seat belts with lukewarm water or interior cleaner.Caution
Close Velcro fasteners as open
Velcro fasteners on clothing could damage seat upholstery.
The same applies to clothing with
sharp-edged objects, like zips or
belts or studded jeans.

Service and maintenance313Recommended fluids,
lubricants and parts
Recommended fluids and lubricants
Only use products that meet the
recommended specifications.9 Warning
Operating materials are
hazardous and could be
poisonous. Handle with care. Pay
attention to information given on
the containers.
Engine oil
Engine oil is identified by its quality
and its viscosity. Quality is more
important than viscosity when
selecting which engine oil to use. The oil quality ensures e.g. engine
cleanliness, wear protection and oil
aging control, whereas viscosity
grade gives information on the oil's
thickness over a temperature range.
Select the appropriate engine oil
based on its quality and on the
minimum ambient temperature
3 317.
Topping up engine oilCaution
In case of any spilled oil, wipe it up and dispose of it properly.
Engine oils of different manufacturersand brands can be mixed as long as
they comply with the required engine oil quality and viscosity.
Select the appropriate engine oil
based on its quality and on the
minimum ambient temperature
3 317.
Additional engine oil additives
The use of additional engine oil
additives could cause damage and
invalidate the warranty.
Engine oil viscosity grades
The SAE viscosity grade gives
information of the thickness of the oil.
Multigrade oil is indicated by two
figures, e.g. SAE 5W-30. The first figure, followed by a W, indicates the
low temperature viscosity and the
second figure the high temperature
viscosity.
Select the appropriate viscosity grade depending on the minimum ambient
temperature 3 317.
All of the recommended viscosity grades are suitable for high ambient
temperatures.
Coolant and antifreeze
Use only silicate-free long life coolant
(LLC) antifreeze approved for the
vehicle. Consult a workshop.
The system is factory filled with
coolant designed for excellent
corrosion protection and frost
protection down to approx. -28 °C.
This concentration should be
maintained all year round. The use of additional coolant additives that
intend to give additional corrosion
protection or seal against minor leaks
can cause function problems. Liability
