FASTENER IDENTIFICATION
DESCRIPTION
The SAE bolt strength grades range from grade 2
to grade 8. The higher the grade number, the greater
the bolt strength. Identification is determined by the
line marks on the top of each bolt head. The actual
bolt strength grade corresponds to the number of line
marks plus 2. The most commonly used metric bolt
strength classes are 9.8 and 10.9. The metric
strength class identification number is imprinted on
the head of the bolt. The higher the class number,
the greater the bolt strength. Some metric nuts are
imprinted with a single-digit strength class on the
nut face. Refer to the Fastener Identification and
Fastener Strength Charts (Fig. 2) and (Fig. 3).

effect panels. If necessary, remove the wheels from
the lifted end of the vehicle and lower the vehicle
closer to the ground, to increase the ground clearance
at the opposite end of the vehicle. Install lug nuts on
wheel attaching studs to retain brake drums.
RAMP ANGLE
If a vehicle with flat-bed towing equipment is used,
the approach ramp angle should not exceed 15
degrees.
TOWING WHEN KEYS ARE NOT AVAILABLE
When the vehicle is locked and keys are not avail-
able, use a flat bed hauler. A Wheel-lift or Sling-type
device can be used provided all the wheels are lifted
off the ground using tow dollies.
MAINTENANCE SCHEDULES
DESCRIPTION
The use of special lubricant additives is not recom-
mended. The use of such additives may affect the
warranty rights. With regard to legal stipulations
concerning emissions control, please note that
engines have to be serviced and adjusted in accor-
dance with special instructions and using special
measuring equipment. Modifications to or interfer-
ence with the emissions control systems are not per-
missible.
MAINTENANCE - WITHOUT ASSYST MAINTE-
NANCE COMPUTER
Maintenance Intervals
²Oil service ±Normal Operationevery 10,000
miles or 16,000 km or 12 months.
²Maintenance service every 30,000 miles or
48,000 km.
Additional work must be carried out at yearly
intervals.
MAINTENANCE - WITH ASSYST MAINTENANCE
COMPUTER
ASSYST provides information on the best possible
timing for maintenance work.
When the next maintenance service is due, this
will be indicated in the multi-function display with
the wrench icon symbol displayed in km/miles or
days.
²One wrench icon showing indicates Oil Service
is necessary.
²Two wrench icons showing indicates Mainte-
nance Service is necessary ± displayed in km/miles or
days.
If the display shows the number of days, a clock
symbol will also appear in the multi-function display.You should have the maintenance performed
within the stated period/distance.
The service indicator will be reset after an oil ser-
vice and/or maintenance service has been performed.
REGULAR CHECK - UPS
To maintain the safe operation of the vehicle, it is
recommended that the following tasks be performed
on a regular basis (i.e. weekly or whenever the vehi-
cle is refueled). Check:
²Engine oil level
²Brake system - fluid level
²Battery - acid level
²Windshield washer system and headlamp clean-
ing system - fluid level
²Mechanical assemblies (e.g. engine, transmis-
sion, etc.) - check for leaks
²Condition of tires and tires pressures
²All exterior lights
SPECIAL MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS
If bodies built by manufacturers other than
DaimlerChrysler Corporation are fitted to the vehi-
cle, the maintenance requirements and lubrication
intervals specified by the body manufacturer must be
adhered to, in addition to all standard maintenance
requirements.
Coolant
Corrosion inhibitor/antifreeze concentration in the
coolant should be checked before the onset of winter
(once year in countries with high prevailing temper-
atures).
Replace the coolant every five years or 100,000
miles.
Dust Filter for Heating / Ventilation Replacement
The dust filter and the tailgate interior filter are to
be renewed during routine maintenance service. If
operating conditions are dusty, these filters should be
renewed more frequently.
ENGINE OIL CHANGE AND FILTER REPLACEMENT
At a minimum, change the engine oil and oil filter
once a year ± even if the vehicle mileage per year is
extremely low. For standard oil service schedules
refer to the chapter oil service and maintenance ser-
vice.
Once a Year
Select the viscosity of the engine oil (SAE classes)
according to the outside air temperature.
Only use engine oil approved by DaimlerChrysler
Corporation if following the ASSYST system guide-
lines.

CENTRAL TIMER MODULE
DESCRIPTION
The central timer module (CTM) is located beneath
the driver seat. The CTM uses information carried on
the programmable communications interface (PCI)
data bus network along with many hard wired inputs
to monitor many sensor and switch inputs. In
response to those inputs, the circuitry and program-
ming of the CTM allow it to supply the vehicle occu-
pants with audible and visual information, and to
control and integrate many functions and features of
the vehicle through both hard wired outputs and the
transmission of message outputs to other modules in
the vehicle over the PCI data bus.
The features that the CTM supports or controls
include the following:
²Central Locking- The CTM on vehicles
equipped with the optional Vehicle Theft Security
System (VTSS) includes a central locking/unlocking
feature.
²Enhanced Accident Response- The CTM pro-
vides an optional enhanced accident response fea-
ture. This is a programmable feature.
²Panic Mode- The CTM provides support for
the optional RKE system panic mode including horn,
headlamp, and park lamp flash features.
²Power Lock Control- The CTM provides the
optional power lock system features, including sup-
port for the automatic door lock and door lock inhibit
modes.
²Programmable Features- The CTM provides
support for certain programmable features.
²Remote Keyless Entry- The CTM provides
the optional Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) system fea-
tures, including support for the RKE Lock (with
optional horn and park lamps flash), Unlock (with
park lamps flash, driver-door-only unlock, andunlock-all-doors), Panic, and illuminated entry
modes, as well as the ability to be programmed to
recognize up to four RKE transmitters. The RKE
horn, driver-door-only unlock, and unlock-all-doors
features are programmable.
²Vehicle Theft Security System- The CTM
provides control of the optional Vehicle Theft Secu-
rity System (VTSS) features, including support for
the central locking/unlocking mode and control of the
Security indicator in the instrument cluster.
Hard wired circuitry connects the CTM to the elec-
trical system of the vehicle. Refer to the appropriate
wiring information.
Many of the features in the vehicle controlled or
supported by the CTM are programmable using the
DRBIIItscan tool. However, if any of the CTM hard-
ware components are damaged or faulty, the entire
CTM unit must be replaced. The hard wired inputs
or outputs of all CTM versions can be diagnosed
using conventional diagnostic tools and methods;
however, for diagnosis of the CTM or the PCI data
bus, the use of a DRBIIItscan tool is required. Refer
to the appropriate diagnostic information.
OPERATION
The central timer module (CTM) monitors many
hard wired switch and sensor inputs as well as those
resources it shares with other modules in the vehicle
through its communication over the programmable
communications interface (PCI) data bus network.
The internal programming and all of these inputs
allow the CTM to determine the tasks it needs to
perform and their priorities, as well as both the stan-
dard and optional features that it should provide.
The CTM then performs those tasks and provides
those features through both PCI data bus communi-
cation with other modules and hard wired outputs
through a number of driver circuits, relays, and
