2015 MERCEDES-BENZ E-CLASS COUPE Owners Manual

Coolant
Important safety notes G
WARNING
If antifreeze comes into contact with hot com- ponents in the engine compartment, it may
ignite. There is a risk of fire and injury.
Let the engine cool down before you top up
the antifreeze. Make sure that antifreeze is
not spilled next to the filler neck. Thoroughly
clean the antifreeze from components before
starting the engine.
! Only add coolant that has been premixed
with the desired antifreeze protection. You
could otherwise damage the engine.
Further information on coolants can be found in the Mercedes-Benz Specifications for Ser-
vice Products, MB Specifications for Service
Products 310.1, e.g. on the Internet at
http://bevo.mercedes-benz.com. Or contact
a qualified specialist workshop.
! Always use a suitable coolant mixture, even
in countries where high temperatures prevail.
Otherwise, the engine cooling system is not
sufficiently protected from corrosion and
overheating.
i Have the coolant regularly replaced at a
qualified specialist workshop and the replace-
ment confirmed in the Service Booklet.
Comply with the important safety precautions
for service products when handling coolant
(Y page 329).
The coolant is a mixture of water and corrosion
inhibitor/antifreeze. It is responsible for the fol-
lowing:
R anti-corrosion protection
R antifreeze protection
R raising the boiling point
If corrosion inhibitor/antifreeze is present in the
correct concentration, the boiling point of the
coolant during operation will be approximately
130 †. The corrosion inhibitor/antifreeze concentra-
tion in the engine cooling system should:
R be at least 50 %. This will protect the engine
cooling system against freezing down to
approximately -37 †.
R not exceed 55 % (antifreeze protection down
to -45 †). Heat will otherwise not be dissipa-
ted as effectively.
Mercedes-Benz recommends an antifreeze/
corrosion inhibitor concentrate in accordance
with MB Specifications for Service Products
310.1.
i When the vehicle is first delivered, it is filled
with a coolant mixture that ensures adequate
antifreeze and corrosion protection.
i The coolant is checked at every mainte-
nance interval at a qualified specialist work-
shop. Windscreen washer system
Important safety notes G
WARNING
If windscreen washer concentrate comes into contact with hot components of the engine or
the exhaust system, it can ignite. There is a
risk of fire and injury.
Make sure the windscreen washer concen-
trate does not come into contact with the filler neck.
! Only the washer fluids SummerFit and Win-
terFit can be mixed. Otherwise, the spraying
nozzles could become blocked.
Do not use distilled or de-ionised water, other-
wise, the level sensor may give a false reading.
When handling washer fluid, observe the impor- tant safety notes on service products
(Y page 329).
At temperatures above freezing:
X Fill the washer fluid reservoir with a mixture of
water and washer fluid, e.g. MB SummerFit.
Mix 1 part MB SummerFit to 100 parts water.
At temperatures below freezing:
X Fill the washer fluid reservoir with a mixture of
water and washer fluid, e.g. MB WinterFit. 334
Service products and capacitiesTechnical data

For the correct mixing ratio refer to the infor-
mation on the antifreeze reservoir.
i Add washer fluid concentrate, e.g. MB Sum-
merFit or MB WinterFit, to the washer fluid all
year round. Vehicle data
General notes
Please note that for the specified vehicle data:
R the heights specified may vary as a result of:
- tyres
- load
- condition of the suspension
- optional equipment
R optional equipment reduces the maximum
payload
R vehicle-specific weight information can be
found on the vehicle identification plate
(Y page 328)
R only for certain countries: you can find vehi-
cle-specific vehicle data in the COC docu-
ments (CERTIFICATE OF CONFORMITY).
These documents are delivered with your
vehicle. Dimensions and weights
You can find the correct values for your model

! If you have a trailer tow hitch retrofitted,
changes to the engine cooling system may be necessary, depending on the vehicle type.
If you have a trailer tow hitch retrofitted,
observe the anchorage points on the chassis. Trailer tow hitch

! Use a drawbar noseweight as close as pos-
sible to the maximum permissible nose-
weight. Do not use a noseweight of less than
50kg, otherwise the trailer may come loose.
Note that the payload and the rear axle load
are reduced by the actual payload.
