to ensure that the tyre pressure in all four
tyres is set correctly for the respective
operating conditions.
X Observe the notes in the section on tyre
pressures (Y page 321). G

! Retreaded tyres are neither tested nor
recommended by Mercedes-Benz, since
previous damage cannot always be detec-
ted on retreaded tyres. As aresult,
Mercedes-Ben zcannot guarante evehicle
safety if retreade dtyres are fitted. Do not
fit used tyres if you have no information
about their previous usage.
! Large wheels :the lower the section width
for acertain wheel size, the lower the ride
comfort is on poor road surfaces. Roll com-
fort and suspension comfort are reduced
and the risk of damage to the wheels and
tyres as aresult of driving over obstacles
increases.
i You will find atable of tyre pressures on
the inside of your vehicle's fuel filler flap.
For further information on tyre pressure,
see (Y page 321).

fit the vehicle:

Vehicles with MOExtende dtyre sare not
equipped with aTIREFIT kit at the factory.
It is therefore recommende dthat you addi-

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

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

the SAE classification (viscosity). The table
below shows you which SAE classifications
are to be used. The low-temperature proper-

impaired during operation due to, for exam-

therefore strongly recommended to observe

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
