Engine oils
Engine oils are specifically tested for their 
suitability in our engines and durability for 
our service intervals. Therefore, only use 
approved engine oils and oil filters 
required for vehicles with Maintenance 
System (U.S. vehicles) or FSS PLUS 
(Canada vehicles). For a listing of approved 
engine oils and oil filters, refer to the 
Factory Approved Service Products 
pamphlet (USA only), or contact an 
authorized Mercedes-Benz Center.
Engine oil additives
Do not blend oil additives with engine oil. 
They may damage the engine. 
Damage or malfunctions resulting from 
blending oil additives are not covered by 
the Mercedes-Benz Limited Warranty.Air conditioning refrigerant
R-134a (HFC) refrigerant and special PAG 
lubricating oil are used in the air 
conditioning system.
Never use R-12 (CFC) or mineral-based 
lubricating oil. Otherwise damage to the 
system will occur.
Brake fluid
Only brake fluid approved by 
Mercedes-Benz is recommended. Your au-
thorized Mercedes-Benz Center will pro-
vide you with additional information.
!
Using engine oils and oil filters of specifica-
tion other than those expressly required for the 
Maintenance System (U.S. vehicles) or 
FSS PLUS (Canada vehicles), or changing of oil 
and oil filter at change intervals longer than 
those called for by the Maintenance System 
(U.S. vehicles) or FSS PLUS (Canada vehicles) 
will result in engine or emission control system 
damage not covered by the Mercedes-Benz 
Limited Warranty.Please follow Maintenance System (U.S. vehi-
cles) or FSS PLUS (Canada vehicles) recommen-
dations for scheduled oil changes. Failure to do 
so will result in engine or emission control sys-
tem damage not covered by the Mercedes-Benz 
Limited Warranty.
Warning!
G
During vehicle operation, the boiling point of 
the brake fluid is continuously reduced 
through the absorption of moisture from the 
atmosphere. Under extremely strenuous 
operating conditions, this moisture content 
can lead to the formation of bubbles in the 
system, thus reducing the system’s 
efficiency.
Therefore, the brake fluid must be replaced 
regularly. Refer to your vehicle’s 
Maintenance Booklet for replacement 
interval.

496 Technical dataFuels, coolants, lubricants etc.Premium unleaded gasoline (gasoline engine)
Fuel requirements
Gasoline engine
Only use premium unleaded fuel:
The octane number (posted at the 
pump) must be 91 min. It is an average 
of both the Research Octane Number 
(RON) and the Motor Octane Number 
(MON): (RON+MON)/2. This is also 
known as the ANTI-KNOCK INDEX.
Unleaded gasoline containing oxygenates 
such as ethanol, IPA, IBA and TBA can be 
used provided the ratio of any one of these 
oxygenates to gasoline does not 
exceed 10%; MTBE must not exceed 15%.
The ratio of methanol to gasoline must not 
exceed 3% plus additional cosolvents.
Using mixtures of ethanol and methanol is 
not allowed. Gasohol, which contains 
10% ethanol and 90% unleaded gasoline, 
can be used.
Warning!
G
Gasoline is highly flammable and poisonous. 
It burns violently and can cause serious 
personal injury.
Never allow sparks, flame or smoking mate-
rials near gasoline!
Turn off the engine before refueling.
Whenever you are around gasoline, avoid in-
haling fumes and skin or clothing contact, 
extinguish all smoking materials.
Direct skin contact with fuels and the inha-
lation of fuel vapors can damage your 
health.
!
To maintain the engine’s durability and per-
formance, premium unleaded gasoline must be 
used. If premium unleaded gasoline is not avail-
able and low octane fuel is used, follow these 
precautions:
Have the fuel tank only partially filled with 
unleaded regular gasoline and fill up with 
premium unleaded gasoline as soon as 
possible.
Avoid full throttle driving and abrupt 
acceleration.
Do not exceed an engine speed of 3 000 rpm 
if the vehicle is loaded with a light load such 
as two persons and no luggage.
Do not exceed 
2/3 of maximum accelerator 
pedal position if the vehicle is fully loaded or 
operating in mountainous terrain.
