Operation
Engine compartment
There is no need for you to check the oil
level in the autom atictransmission. In the
event of oil loss or problems with gear
shifts, have the automatic tr ansmiss ion
checked at a qualified specialist workshop,
e.g. at a Mercedes-Benz Service Centre.
Coolant is a mixture of water, antifreeze
and corrosion inhibitor. Only check the
coolant level when the vehicle is standing
on a level surface and the engine has
cooled down.
The expansion tank is located in the engine
compartment on the right-hand side when
vi ewed inthe direction of travel. 1
Expans ion tank
6 Slowly unscrew the cap by about one
half turn and allow exc esspr essure to
escape.
6 Then continue to unscrew the cap and
rem ove it.
6 The coolant level is correct if:
! when the coolant is cold, it reaches
the mark inthe expansion tank filler
neck
! when the coolant is hot, it reaches
approximately 1.5 cm higher 6
Top up the coolant in the filler neck if
necessary.
6 Rep lace th e cap by tur ningitt o the
stop.
You will find further informat ion about
coolant inthe "Technical data" section

shou ld therefore only unscrew the cap once

Te
chnical data
Service products and capacities
The following values indicate the various
total cooling system capacities.
Co rrosion in hibitorand antifreeze
concentration for antifreeze protection down to –45 °C (55%)
The coolant is a mixture of water, corro-
sion inhibitor and antifreeze. It performs
the following functions in the coo
ling sys-
tem:
! Anti-corrosion protection
! Antifreeze protection
! Raising the boiling point !
Always use a suitable coolan t–even in
co untri eswith high temperature s.
If you do not do so, the cooling system will not be
suffici ently protected from corrosion, and the
boiling point wil lbe too low. If antifreeze
/corrosion inhibitor is present
in the correct concentration, the boiling
point of the coolant will be around 130 °C. Coolant
