Useful information
i
This Operator's Manual describes all
models and all standard and optional
equipment of your vehicle available at the
time of publication of the Operator's Man- ual. Country-specific differences are pos-
sible. Bear in mind that your vehicle may
not feature all functions described here.
This also applies to safety-relevant sys-
tems and functions.

Engine compartment (rear)
Engine compartment cover
GWARNING
The engine compartment cover may become
very hot. If you remove the cover to do work on the engine compartment, there is a risk
of injury!
Allow the engine to cool down and then
remove the engine compartment cover after
cooling has taken place.
GWARNING
Combustion engines emit poisonous
exhaust gases such as carbon monoxide. If
the engine compartment cover has not been installed correctly, when the engine is
running, particularly if the vehicle is
moving, exhaust fumes could enter the
passenger compartment. There is a risk of
poisoning.
Always switch off the engine before remov-
ing the engine compartment cover. Make
sure that the engine compartment cover has
been installed correctly.

Engine oil
General notes
Depending on your driving style, the vehicle
consumes up to 0.55 US qt (0.5 liters) of oil per
600 miles (1000 km). The oil consumption may
be higher than this when the vehicle is new or
if you frequently drive at high engine speeds.
Checking service products149
>> Maintenance and care.
Z

When checking the oil level:
Rpark the vehicle on a level surface.
Rthe engine should be switched off for
approximately 5 minutes if the engine is at
normal operating temperature
Rif the engine is not at normal operating
temperature, e.g. if the engine was only
started briefly, wait approximately
30 minutes before carrying out the meas-
urement
Checking the oil level using the oil dip-
stick
GWARNING
Certain components in the engine compart- ment, such as the engine, radiator and parts
of the exhaust system, can become very hot.
Working in the engine compartment poses a risk of injury.
Where possible, let the engine cool down
and touch only the components described in
the following.
GWARNING
Opening the hood when the engine is over-
heated or when there is a fire in the engine
compartment could expose you to hot gases
or other service products. There is a risk of injury.
Let an overheated engine cool down before
opening the hood. If there is a fire in the
engine compartment, keep the hood closed
and contact the fire department.
GWARNING
The engine compartment contains moving
components. Certain components, such as
the radiator fan, may continue to run or
start again suddenly when the ignition is
off. There is a risk of injury.
If you need to do any work inside the engine compartment:
Rswitch off the ignition
Rnever reach into the area where there is a
risk of danger from moving components,
such as the fan rotation area
Rremove jewelry and watches
Rkeep items of clothing and hair, for
example, away from moving parts
XOpen the engine compartment cover
(Ypage 149).
Example
XPull oil dipstick 0043out of the dipstick
guide tube.
XWipe off oil dipstick 0043.
XSlowly slide oil dipstick 0043into the guide
tube to the stop, and take it out again.
If the level is between MIN mark 0087and MAX
mark 0044, the oil level is correct.
Adding engine oil
GWARNING
Certain components in the engine compart- ment, such as the engine, radiator and parts
of the exhaust system, can become very hot.
Working in the engine compartment poses a risk of injury.
Where possible, let the engine cool down
and touch only the components described in
the following.
GWARNING
If engine oil comes into contact with hot
components in the engine compartment, it
may ignite. There is a risk of fire and
injury.
Make sure that engine oil is not spilled
next to the filler neck. Let the engine cool down and thoroughly clean the engine oil
off the components before starting the
engine.

iThe service display does not show any
information on the engine oil level.
Observe the notes on the engine oil level
(
Ypage 150).
Whenever a service is due, this is shown
approximately 30 days or 1500 km (1000 miles)
beforehand. After starting the engine, a ser-

Information about Service
Resetting the service display
!Have service work carried out as descri-
bed in the Maintenance Booklet. This may
otherwise lead to increased wear and dam-
age to the major assemblies or the vehicle.
A qualified specialist workshop, e.g. a smart center, will reset the service interval dis-
play after the service work has been carried
out. You can also obtain further information
on maintenance work, for example.
Special service requirements
The prescribed service interval is based on
normal operation of the vehicle. Service work
will need to be performed more often if the
vehicle is operated under arduous conditions
or increased loads, for example:
Rregular city driving with frequent inter-
mediate stops
Rif the vehicle is primarily used to travel
short distances
Rfor frequent operation in mountainous ter-
rain or on poor road surfaces
Rif the engine is often left idling for long
periods
In these or similar operating conditions,
have, for example, the air filter, engine oil
and oil filter changed more frequently. The
tires must be checked more frequently if the
vehicle is operated under increased loads.
You can obtain further information at a
qualified specialist workshop, e.g. a smart
center.
Driving abroad
An extensive smart service network is also
available in other countries. For further
information inquire at any smart center.
