WARNING
Incorrec tretrofitting of RF transmitters can
lead to increased electromagnetic radiation in the vehicle interior. Using an exterior aerial
takes into account curren
tscientific discus-
sions relating to the possible health hazards
that may result from electromagnetic fields.
Have aftermarket radio frequenc ytransmit-
ting equipment installed at aqualified spe-
cialist workshop. Mercedes-Benz recom-
mends that you use aMercedes-Benz Service
Centr efor this purpose.
Deviations with respect to aerial locations,
output and frequencies must be approved by
Mercedes-Benz.
There is no restriction for aerial position sin
the outer area of the vehicle for these wave-
bands: trunked radio/Tetra, 70 cm wave-
band, GSM 900/AMPS, GSM 1800a nd
UMTS.
Legal provision sfor fittings must be
observed.
RF transmitters with amaximum transmis-
sion output of 100 mW (PEAK) may be used
in the vehicle without restrictions.
! The operatin gpermit may be invalidated
if the instructions for installation and use of
RF transmitters are not observed, e.g.
approved wavebands, maximum output
and aerial position sonthe vehicle.

WARNING
When handling, storin gand disposing of any
service products, please observe the relevant
regulations, as you could otherwise endanger
yourself and others.
Keep service products away from children.
To protect your health, do not allow service
products to come into contact with your eyes
or open wounds. See adoctor immediately if
any service product is swallowed. H
Environmental note
Dispose of service products in an environ-
mentally-responsible manner. Fuel
Important safety notes G
WARNING
Fuel is highly flammable. Fire, naked flames
and smokin gare therefor eprohibited when
handling fuels.
Switch off the engine and the auxiliary heating
before refuelling. G
WARNING
Do not come into contact with fuels.
It is hazardous to your health if your skin
comes into direct contact with fuels or you
breathe in fuel vapours. Tank capacity Total capacity
66 l
Of which reserve fuel
Approx-
imately 8l !
Do not use petrol to refuel vehicles with a
diesel engine. Do not use diesel to refuel
vehicles with apetrol engine. Even small
amounts of the wrong fuel result in damage
to the fuel system and the engine.
For further information on refuelling and on
fuels, see (Y page 160).
Notes on fuel consumption The vehicle will use more fuel than usualin
the following situations:
R
at very low outside temperatures
R in urban traffic
R for short journeys
R when towing atrailer
R in mountainous terrain
i Only for certain countries: you can find
the current consumption and emission val-
ues of your vehicle in the COC documents
(EU CERTIFICATE OF CONFORMITY).T hese
documents are delivered with your vehicle.
The consumption figures are in each case
based on the currently applicable version.
R for vehicles up to the EURO 4standard
in accordance with EU Directive
RL 80 /1268 /EWG
R for vehicles complying with the EURO 5
standard or higher in accordance with
Regulation (EC) Nr. 715 /2007
Deviations from these values may occur
unde rnormal operating conditions.
! Do not use any fuel additives, as they can
cause malfunctions and engine damage. H
Environmental note
CO 2(carbon dioxide) is the gas which scien-
tists believe to be principally responsible for 334
Service products and capacitiesTechnical data

global warming (the greenhouse effect). Your
vehicle's CO 2emissions are directly related
to fuel consumption and therefor edepend 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. Engine oil
Please bear the following in mind The quality of engine oils is decisive for the
function and service life of an engine. After
extensive tests, Mercedes-Benz approves
engine oils which correspon dtothe current
technical standard.
Therefore, only Mercedes-Benz approved
engine oils may be used in Mercedes-Benz
engines.
Further information on tested and approved
engine oils can be obtained from any
Mercedes-Benz Service Centre. Mercedes-
Benz recommends that you have the oil
change carried out at aMercedes-Benz
Service Centre. Mercedes-Benz approval is
indicated on the oil container by the inscrip-
tion "MB Approval" and the corresponding
designation, e.g. MB Approval 229.51.
The table shows which engine oils have been
approved for your vehicle. Petrol engines MB Approval

Engine oil selection is based on the respective
outside temperatures and in accordance with
the SAE classification (viscosity). The table
below shows you which SAE classifications
are to be used. The low-temperature proper-
ties of engine oils can be significantly
impaired during operation due to, for exam-
ple, ageing or soot and fuel accretion. It is
therefore strongly recommended to observe
regularo il changes using an approved engine
oil with the appropriate SA Eclassification. Brake fluid
G
WARNING
The brak efluid constantly absorb smoisture
fro mt he air; this lowers its boiling point.
If the boiling point of the brake fluid is too low,
vapour pockets may form in the brake system
when the brakes are applied hard (e.g. when
driving downhill). This would impair braking
efficiency.
You should have the brake fluid renewed at
regular intervals. The brake fluid change inter-
vals can be found in the Service Booklet.
Only use brake fluid approved by Mercedes-
Benz.I nformation about approved brake flu-
ids can be obtained from any Mercedes-Benz
Service Centre.
