(9) PTC heater control
a. Overview
The supplementary electrical heater is installed in DI engine equipped vehicle as a basic equipment. The
PTC system is operated according to two temperature values measured at the coolant temperature
sensor and HFM sensor. This device is mounted in the heater air outlet and increase the temperature of
air to the passenger compartment. Because PTC system is heated by electrical power, high capacity
alternator is required. PTC does not operate during engine cranking, while the battery voltage is lower
than 11 V or during preheating process of glow plugs.
b. Components
A: PTC 1 (changeable)
B: PTC 2,3 (not changeable)

e. Cautions
Use only specified Engine Oil (approved by MB Sheet 229.51) for CDPF. -
1. Use only specified engine oil (Low Ash Oil)
The vehicle equipped with CDPF should use specific engine oil to improve the engine performance
and fuel economy, and ensure the service life of CDPF. -
2. Issue with normal engine oil
Sulfur, one of the contents of engine oil is burned and generates soot that is not regenerated by the
DPF. This remains on the filter as ashes and keeps accumulating. Eventually, this ashes will block the
filter. -
3. Benefit for specified engine oil
Minimized the sulfur content of engine oil which reduces the service life.
Improved fuel economy and emission level of CO2 with high performance and low viscosity.
Increased service life of engine oil with high resistance to temperature. -
-
-
4. Problems when using unspecified engine oil
The service life of filter may be reduced by 30% or more by the ashes accumulated on the filter.
The fuel economy may be reduced because of engine rolling resistance, frequent regeneration of
DPF. -
-
These problems are also caused by oil with high sulfur content, such as tax exemption oil and
heating oil, etc. *

3. CAUTIONS
If 100% of anti-freeze is added, the water pump vane can be damaged and thermal conductivity can
be decreased resulting in poor circulation in the cooling system which leads to overheated engine.
Use of non-recommended coolant could cause damage to the cooling system and overheating of the
engine.
Opening the coolant reservoir cap while the engine is running or hot can cause burns by hot steam o
r
water.
To open the coolant reservoir cap, wrap the cap with a wet towel or thick cloth after the engine is
cooled down sufficiently.
If cool water is added to the heated engine, the engine or radiator can be deformed.
The anti-freeze in the coolant can damage the painted surface, so avoid the contact of the coolant to
the painted body.
The anti-freeze and water should be mixed in proper mixture ratio. Never add only water when
adding coolant.
If the anti-freeze content is too low, the coolant can be frozen while the engine can be overheated if
anti-freeze content is too high. -
