nose and throat. You may also experience
coughing and watery eyes.
Do not inhale any ammonia vapours that may
be released. Only fill the AdBlue ®
tank in well-
ventilated areas.
Do not swallow AdBlue ®
or let it come into
contact with skin, eyes or clothing. Keep
AdBlue ®
away from children.
If you or others come into contact with
AdBlue ®
, observe the following:
R immediately rinse AdBlue ®
off your skin
with soap and water.
R if AdBlue ®
comes into contact with your
eyes, immediately rinse them thoroughly
with clean water. Seek medical attention
immediately.
R if AdBlue ®
is swallowed, immediately rinse
your mouth out thoroughly. Drink plenty of
water. Seek medical attention immedi-
ately.
R change immediately out of clothing that
has come into contact with AdBlue ®
.
! Only use AdBlue ®
in accordance with
ISO 22241. Do not mix any additives with
AdBlue ®
, and do not dilute AdBlue ®
with
water. This may destroy the BlueTEC
exhaust gas aftertreatment system.
! In order to fill the AdBlue ®
tank, the vehi-
cle must be parked on a level surface. The
AdBlue ®
tank can only be filled as intended
with the vehicle parked on a level surface.
Fluctuations in capacity will thus be avoi-
ded. Filling a vehicle standing on an uneven
surface is not permitted. There is a danger of overfilling, which can cause damage to
BlueTEC exhaust gas aftertreatment com-
ponents.
! Surfaces which have come into contact
with AdBlue ®
while refilling should be
rinsed immediately with water, or remove
AdBlue ®
with a moist cloth and cold water.
If AdBlue ®
has already crystallised, use a
sponge and cold water to clean the area. AdBlue
®
residue crystallises after a certain
amount of time and soils the affected sur-
faces.
! AdBlue ®
is not a fuel additive and must
not be added to the fuel tank. If AdBlue ®
is
added to the fuel tank, this can lead to
engine damage.
Have the AdBlue ®
tank refilled at a qualified
specialist workshop. However, you can also
top up the AdBlue ®
tank:
R at a filling station with an AdBlue ®
filling
pump
R with AdBlue ®
refill bottles
R with an AdBlue ®
refill canister
When the pump nozzle switches off automat-
ically during filling at a filling pump, the
AdBlue ®
tank has been completely filled. Do
not fill the AdBlue ®
tank any further. AdBlue ®
may leak out.
To avoid transporting already opened refill
containers in the vehicle, completely empty
refill bottles or canisters when filling the
AdBlue ®
tank, if possible.

Fuel grade
! Do not use diesel to refuel vehicles with a
petrol engine. Do not switch on the ignition if you accidentally refuel with the wrong
fuel. Otherwise, the fuel will enter the fuel
system. Even small amounts of the wrong
fuel can result in damage to the fuel system
and the engine. Notify a qualified specialist
workshop and have the fuel tank and fuel
lines drained completely.
! Only refuel using premium-grade unlea-
ded petrol with at least 95 ROZ/85 MOZ,
that conforms to European standard
EN 228 or E DIN 51626–1 or an equivalent specification. Fuel of this specification can contain up to
10 % ethanol.
Fuel that does not conform to EN 228 or
E DIN 51626–1 can lead to increased wear
and damage the engine and exhaust sys-
tem.
! Only use the fuel recommended. Operat-
ing the vehicle with other fuels can lead to
engine failure.
! Do not use the following:
R E85 (petrol with 85% ethanol)
R E100 (100% ethanol)
R M15 (petrol with 15% methanol)
R M30 (petrol with 30% methanol)
R M85 (petrol with 85% methanol)
R M100 (100% methanol)
R petrol with additives containing metal
R Diesel
Do not mix such fuels with the fuel recom-
mended for your vehicle. Do not use addi-
tives. Otherwise, engine damage may
occur. This does not include cleaning addi-
tives for the removal and prevention of res-
idue build-up. Petrol must only be mixed
with additives recommended by Mercedes- Benz; see "Additives". You can obtain fur-
ther information from any Mercedes-Benz
Service Centre.
Usually you will find information about the
fuel grade on the pump. If you cannot find the label on the petrol pump, ask the filling sta-
tion staff.
i E10 fuel contains up to 10% bioethanol.
Your vehicle is suitable for use with E10
fuel. You may refuel your vehicle using E10
fuel.
C 180, C 250: as a temporary measure, if the
recommended fuel is not available, you may
also use regular unleaded petrol with an
octane rating of 93 RON/83 MON.
All other models: as a temporary measure, if
the recommended fuel is not available, you
may also use regular unleaded petrol with an 470
