G
Risk of explosion
Fuel is highly flammable. Fire, naked flames
and smoking are therefore prohibited when
handling fuels.
Before refuelling, turn off the engine and the
auxiliary heating *. G
Risk of injury
Do not allow fuel to come into contact with
skin or clothing.
Allowing fuels to come into direct contact with
your skin or inhaling fuel vapours is damaging
to your health.

Do not use petrol to refuel vehicles with a
diesel engine. Do not use diesel to refuel
vehicles with a petrol engine. Never mix
diesel with petrol. Even small amounts of
the wrong fuel result in damage to the
injection system. Damage resulting from
adding the wrong fuel is not covered by the
implied warranty.

MERCEDES-BENZ GL SUV 2009 Owners Manual Notes on fuel consumption
The vehicle will use more fuel than usual in
the following situations:
R at very low temperatures
R in urban traffic

Notes on fuel consumption
The vehicle will use more fuel than usual in
the following situations:
R at very low temperatures
R in urban traffic
R on short trips
R when towing a trailer
R in mountainous terrain
i Only for certain countries: the respective
current consumption and emission values
of your vehicle can be found in the COC
papers (EC CERTIFICATE OF CONFORM-
ITY). These documents are supplied when
the vehicle is delivered.
The consumption figures for vehicles falling
under the EURO4 standard have been
determined in accordance with EU Direc-
tive 80 /1268 /EEC while figures for vehi-
cles falling under the EURO5 standard have
been determined in accordance with Reg-
ulation (EC) No. 715 / 2007, in each case
based on the currently applicable version.
The values do not refer to a specific vehicle.
Deviations from these values may occur
under normal operating conditions.
! Do not use any special additives, as they
can cause malfunctions and engine dam-
age. Damage resulting from the use of such
additives is not covered by the Mercedes-
Benz implied warranty. H
Environmental note
CO 2(carbon dioxide) is the gas which scien-
tists believe to be principally responsible for
global warming (the greenhouse effect). Your
vehicle's CO 2emissions are directly related to
fuel consumption and therefore depend on:
R efficient use of the fuel by the engine
R driving style
R other non-technical factors, such as envi-
ronmental influences or road conditions You can minimise your vehicle's CO
2emis-
sions by driving carefully and having it serv-
iced regularly. AdBlue
®
i For BlueTEC vehicles only.
AdBlue ®
is a non-flammable, non-toxic, col-
ourless and odourless water-soluble fluid.
! Only use AdBlue ®
compliant with
ISO 22241. The use of special additives is
not permitted.
! Surfaces, such as carpets or paintwork,
which come into contact with AdBlue ®
while refilling should be rinsed immediately
with plenty of water. Immediately after
spilling, remove AdBlue ®
using a damp
cloth and cold water. If AdBlue ®
has
already crystallised, use a sponge and hot
water to clean it off. AdBlue ®
residues crys-
tallise after a certain period of time and soil
the affected surfaces.
High outside temperatures If AdBlue
®
is heated to above 50 † for an
extended period of time, e.g. due to direct
sunlight on the AdBlue ®
tank, AdBlue ®
may
start to decompose. Ammonia vapours may
develop as a result. G
Risk of injury
Ammonia vapours may escape if the
AdBlue ®
tank cap is opened at high tempera-
tures. Ammonia vapours have a pungent
odour and are particularly irritating to the
skin, to mucous membranes and to the eyes.
You may experience a burning sensation in
your eyes, nose and throat, as well as cough-
ing and watering of the eyes.
Do not inhale ammonia vapours. 288

Points to remember
! For safety reasons, Mercedes-Benz rec-
ommends that you only use tyres which
have been approved specifically for your
vehicle by Mercedes-Benz. These tyres are
specially adapted for use with the control
systems, such as ABS or ESP ®
, and are
marked as follows:
R MO = Mercedes-Benz Original
R MOE = Mercedes-Benz Original Exten-
ded* (tyres with run-flat characteristics)
If you use other tyres, Mercedes-Benz can-
not accept any responsibility for damage
which may occur. Information about tyres
can be obtained from any Mercedes-Benz
Service Centre. !
If you fit tyres other than those tested and
recommended by Mercedes-Benz, charac-
teristics such as handling, noise levels and
fuel consumption, etc. may be adversely
affected. In addition, when driving with a
load, tyre dimensional variations could
cause the tyres to come into contact with
the bodywork and axle components. This
could result in damage to the tyres or the
vehicle.
i Further information about tyres and
wheels can be obtained from any
Mercedes-Benz Service Centre.
i You will find a table of tyre pressures on
the inside of your vehicle's fuel filler flap.
You will find further information about tyre
pressures in the "Operation" section
(Y page 180).
i Notes on vehicle tyres:
Always
R fit tyres of the same size on a given axle
(left/right)
R fit the same type of tyres on your vehicle
at a given time (summer tyres, winter
tyres, All Season tyres, All Terrain tyres,
MOExtended tyres)
i Vehicles with the MOExtended run-flat
system are not equipped with the TIREFIT
kit 43
.
Therefore, it is recommended that you
additionally equip your vehicle with the
TIREFIT kit* if you fit tyres that do not fea-
ture run-flat properties, e.g. winter tyres.
i A TIREFIT kit is available from any quali-
fied specialist workshop, e.g. a Mercedes-
Benz Service Centre.
43 Only for certain countries. Tyres and
