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
