Fuel consumption information
HEnvironmental note
CO 2(carbon dioxide) is the gas which scien-
tists believe to be principally responsible for
global warming (the greenhouse effect). Your
vehicle's CO 2emissions are directly related to
fuel consumption and therefore depend on:
R efficient use of the fuel by the engine
R driving style
R other non-technical factors, such as envi-
ronmental influences, road conditions or
traffic flow
You can minimize your vehicle's CO 2emis-
sions by driving carefully and having it serv-
iced regularly.
The vehicle will use more fuel than usual in the following situations:
R at very low outside temperatures
R in city traffic
R on short journeys
R in mountainous terrain
R when towing a trailer
Engine oil
General notes
!Never use engine oil or an oil filter of a
specification other than is necessary to ful-
fill the prescribed service intervals. Do not
change the engine oil or oil filter in order to achieve longer replacement intervals than
those prescribed. You could otherwise
cause engine damage or damage to the
exhaust gas aftertreatment.
Follow the instructions in the service inter-
val display regarding the oil change. Other-
wise, you may damage the engine and the
exhaust gas aftertreatment.
When handling engine oil, observe the impor-
tant safety notes on service products( Y page 259). The engine oils are matched to the perform-
ance of Mercedes-Benz engines and service
intervals. For this reason, only use engine oils
and oil filters that are approved for vehicles
with a service system.
For a list of approved engine oils and oil filters,
consult an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center
or go to the Internet site
http://bevo.mercedes-benz.com (USA
only).
The table shows which engine oils have been
approved for your vehicle.

Technical data

Engine oil viscosity
Viscosity describes the flow characteristics
of a fluid. If an engine oil has a high viscosity,this means that it is thick; a low viscosity
means that it is thin.
Select an engine oil with an SAE classification
(viscosity) suitable for the prevailing outside
temperatures. The table shows you which
SAE classifications are to be used. The low-
temperature characteristics of engine oils
can deteriorate significantly, e.g. as a result
of aging, soot and fuel deposits. It is therefore strongly recommended that you carry out reg-
ular oil changes using an approved engine oil with the appropriate SAE classification.
Climate control system refrigerant
Important safety notes
The climate control system of your vehicle is
filled with refrigerant R

iGVWR is the maximum permissible gross
weight of the vehicle. Gross vehicle weight (GVW) is the vehicle weight including fuel,
service products, spare wheel, accessoriesinstalled, load and, if applicable, trailer
drawbar load. The GVW must never exceed
the GVWR.
iThe GAWR is the maximum permissible
axle weight.

Fording depth
!
The depth of water must not exceed the
value specified in the table. Note that the
possible fording depth is less in flowingwater.
The table shows fording depth :when loa-
ded and ready to drive.
Fording depth24 in (60 cm)
For more information about off-road fording,
see the Digital Operator's Manual.
Approach/departure angle
GWARNING
If you drive on a steep incline at an angle or
turn when driving on an incline, the vehicle
could slip sideways, tip and rollover. There is a risk of an accident.
Always drive on a steep incline in the line of
fall (straight up or down) and do not turn the
vehicle.
For vehicles with steel springs, loaded and
ready to drive means: a full tank, all fluids
refilled and the driver is in the vehicle.
