Fuels for diesel engines Fuel requirements
Only use commercially available vehicu-
lar ULTRA-LOW SULFUR HIGHWAY DIE-
SEL FUEL (15 ppm SULFUR MAXIMUM).
Chrysler Vans LLC USA now approves
the use of B5 bio diesel (standard diesel
with a maximum of up to 5% Bio diesel
content) in the Sprinter vehicle CRD die-
sel engine.
Information on diesel quality can
normally be found on the fuel pump.
!
CAUTION
The following may lead to increased
wear or engine damage:
\4
Using gasoline that does not
meet the specifications men-
tioned above
\4
The use of non-approved special
additives
!
CAUTION
Marine diesel fuel, Bio diesel fuel,
heating oil or the like must not be
used.
Do not blend diesel fuel with marine
diesel fuel, Bio diesel fuel or heating
oil. The use of such non-approved fu-
els or blending diesel fuel may result
in malfunction or cause engine dam-
age. Damage or malfunctions result-
ing from poor fuel quality or from
blending specific fuel additives are

BrakesUse brake fluid approved for Chrysler Vans LLC standard MB 331.0 and/or Chrysler Vans LLC material standard MS-9971, brake
fluid certified to DOT 4 Plus standards, that also maintains a minimum dry boiling point (ERBP) of 500 °F (260 °C), a minimum wet
boiling point (WERBP) of 356 °F (180 °C) and a maximum viscosity of 1500 mm
2/s, conforming to FMVSS 116 and ISO 4925.

2 Over the course of a brake fluid’s service life, its boiling point falls due to the continuous absorption of moisture from the atmosphere. If the boiling point
of the brake fluid is too low, vapor pockets may form in the brake system when the brakes are applied hard (e.g. when driving on long downhill stretches).
This has a detrimental effect on braking efficiency, which could increase the stopping distance. This increases the risk of an accident. Have the brake fluid
renewed every 2 years.

1 Whenever the coolant is replaced, a concentration of 50% by volume of corrosion inhibitor/antifreeze should be maintained. This provides antifreeze pro-
tection down to -34,6 °F (-37 °C). Do not exceed a concentration of 55% by volume (antifreeze protection down to approximately -49 °F (-45 °C)), as the
heat dissipation properties deteriorate at higher concentrations. Observe the Mercedes-Benz Specifications for Service Products, Sheet 325.
