2006 MERCEDES-BENZ SLR CLASS odometer

Maintenance Booklet6IntroductionInterior filters (e.g. dust filter, recircu-
lating air filter, activated charcoal filter or
combination filter) are replaced accord-
ing to the maintenance intervals listed.
Under severe dust conditions, or with the
Climate Control frequently operating in
the air recirculation mode, the respective
filter should be replaced correspondingly
sooner.
Tire inspection - Your vehicle’s tires are
a critical component to overall vehicle
performance and vehicle stability. The
useful life of tires will vary and is
proportional to tire type, speed rating,
ambient conditions, tire loading, tire
inflation pressure, road surfaces, and
individual driving style, among other
factors. Therefore, Mercedes-Benz
recommends regular checks for wear and
proper inflation.
The first tire inspection, which includes
checking for proper inflation pressure
and tread condition, is at no charge pro-
vided it is performed at an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center prior to 6,500
miles on the vehicle odometer.
For your convenience, this Maintenance
Booklet contains a tire inspection confir-
mation page on which you can record the
date and mileage when tire inspections
were performed.
Tire rotation - Tire rotations can only be
performed on vehicles with the same tire
dimensions on all four wheels (e.g. winter
tires). In cases where your vehicle is
configured with staggered tire sizes
(different tire sizes, front vs. rear), tire
rotations are not possible.
If your vehicle’s tire configuration allows
for rotation, tire rotation should be
performed by observing a front-to-rear
pattern that will maintain the intended
rotational (spinning) direction of the tire
(on unidirectional tires, an arrow on the
sidewall indicates the intended rotation
or spinning direction of the tire) and in
accordance with the tire manufacturer’s
recommended intervals, or sooner at first
signs of irregular (uneven) tread wear.

7 Maintenance Booklet
Tire manufacturer’s rotation
recommendations will necessitate a tire
rotation at least once in between
maintenance services and at every
maintenance service based on
Mercedes-Benz SLR maintenance
intervals
.
The first tire rotation is at no charge pro-
vided it is performed at an authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center prior to 6,500
miles on the vehicle odometer.
For your convenience, this Maintenance
Booklet contains a tire rotation confirma-
tion page on which you can record the
date and mileage when tire rotations
were performed.
Spark Plugs should be replaced accord-
ing to schedule on page 60. Severe oper-
ating conditions (frequent starting and
stopping, excessive idling, sustained fast
highway driving) may call for spark plugs
to be replaced correspondingly sooner.Engine oils and oil filters are specifical-
ly tested for their suitability in our en-
gines and durability for our service
intervals. Therefore, only use approved
engine oils and oil filters required for ve-
hicles with Maintenance System. For a
listing of approved engine oils and oil fil-
ters, refer to the Factory Approved Serv-
ice products pamphlet, or contact an
authorized Mercedes-Benz Center.
Using engine oils and oil filters of specifi-
cation other than those expressly re-
quired for the Maintenance System or
changing of oil and oil filter at change in-
tervals longer than those called for by the
Maintenance System will result in engine
damage not covered by the Mercedes-
Benz Limited Warranty

Tire inspection or rotation
If applicable to your vehicle’s tire configuration (see page 6), tire rotation should be performed in
accordance with the tire manufacturer’s recommended intervals, or sooner at first signs of irregular
(uneven) tread wear. Tire manufacturer’s rotation recommendations will necessitate a tire rotation at
least once in between maintenance services and at every maintenance service based on Mercedes-Benz
maintenance intervals.

*This first tire inspection or rotation (if
applicable) at an authorized Mercedes-
Benz Center at any time up to 6,500
miles (vehicle odometer) is provided at
no charge. Please refer to the Service
and Warranty Information Booklet for full
details.
Tire rotation should be performed in accordance with the tire manufacturer’s recommendations in the
Tire Warranty Pamphlet included in your vehicle literature portfolio. However, tires should be rotated at
the first sign of irregular (uneven) tread wear, even if it occurs before the recommended rotation inter-
vals, and should be checked regularly for wear and proper inflation. Please note that the useful life of
tires will vary and is proportional to tire type, speed rating, ambient conditions, tire loading, tire inflation
pressure, road surfaces, and individual driving style, among other factors.
The first tire inspection or rotation (if applicable) occurring at an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center at
any time up to 6,500 miles (vehicle odometer) is provided at no charge.
