Important safety notes G
WARNING
Windshield washer concentrate is highly
flammable. If it comes into contact with hot
engine components or the exhaust system it
could ignite. There is a risk of fire and injury.
Make sure that no windshield washer
concentrate is spilled next to the filler neck. !
Only use washer fluid that is suitable for
plastic lamp lenses, e.g. MB SummerFit or
MB WinterFit .Unsuitabl ewasher fluid
could damage the plastic lenses of the
headlamps.
Observe also the safety notes in the "Service
products and capacities" section.
Mixing ratio Add windshield washe
rconcentrate to the
washer fluid all year round. Adapt the mixing
ratio to the ambient temperature.
At temperatures above freezing:
X Fill up the washer fluid reservoir with a
mixture of water and windshield washer
concentrate, e.g. Summerwash to prevent
smearing.
At temperatures below freezing:
X Fill up the washer fluid reservoir with a
mixture of water and windshield washer
concentrate, e.g. Winterwash if there is a
danger of frost.
This prevents washer fluid from freezing on
the windshield.

The weight of any load carried on the roof,
including the roof carrier, must not exceed
the maximum permissible roof load.
The roof carrier supports must be mounted
at equal distances.
We recommend that you have a stabilizer
installed on the front axle.
! For safety reasons, we recommend that
you only use roof carrier systems that have
been tested and approved for the Sprinter.
This will help to avoid damage.
The data is valid for a load distributed evenly
over the entire roof area. Maximum roof load
