ITY). These documents are supplied when
the vehicle is delivered.
Consumption figures were found in the cur-
rently valid respective version:
R for vehicles from the Euro 5 standard
according to regulation (EC) no.
715/2007
R for vehicles from the Euro 6 standard
according to regulation (EC) no.
595/2009
Fuel consumption depends on:
R the vehicle version
R the style of driving
R the operating conditions
R the type or quality of the fuel used
The vehicle will use more fuel than usual in
the following situations:
R at very low outside temperatures
R in city traffic
R during short journeys
R on mountainous terrain
R when towing a trailer
To keep fuel consumption low, observe the
advice in the "Protection of the environment"
section (Y page 22).
The following components of the different
vehicle versions influence fuel consumption:
R tire sizes, tire tread, tire pressure, tire con-
dition
R body
R transmission ratios for the drive assem-
blies
R additional equipment (e.g. air-conditioning
system, auxiliary heating system).
For these reasons, the actual consumption
figures for your vehicle may deviate from the
consumption figures determined according
to EU Directive 80/1268/EEC.
Data concerning fuel consumption are
recorded in the on-board computer; use the
steering wheel buttons to call up the Trip
computer menu (Ypage 197). Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) General notes
!
Only use DEF in accordance with
ISO 22241. The exhaust gas aftertreatment
system may otherwise be damaged.
Observe the MB Specifications for Service
Products, Sheet No. 352.0.
Damage caused by the use of other reduc-
ing agents will invalidate the New Vehicle
Limited Warranty.
! If DEF comes into contact with a painted
or aluminum surface, wash the surface off
immediately with plenty of water.
High ambient temperatures
When opening the DEF tank filler cap at high
outside temperatures, ammonia vapors may
escape. Ammonia vapors have a pungent
odor and are particularly irritating for your
skin, respiratory organs and eyes. This may
result in burning eyes, nose and throat, as
well as coughing and watering eyes. Do not
inhale ammonia vapors.
If DEF heats up, e.g. in direct sunlight, in the
DEF supply reservoir for some time to over
122 ‡ (50 †), ammonia vapor will develop.
Low ambient temperatures
DEF freezes at a temperature of approx-
imately 12 ‡(00F811 †). The vehicle is equipped
with a DEF preheating system at the factory.
Winter operation is therefore also guaranteed
at temperatures under 12 ‡ (00F811 †).
Additives and tap water
! Do not mix DEF with any additives and do
not dilute DEF with tap water. Otherwise,
the exhaust gas aftertreatment may be
damaged.
Observe the MB Specifications for Service
Products, Sheet No. 352.0.
Damage that arises through the use of addi-
tives or tap water will invalidate the New
Vehicle Limited Warranty. 324
