2015 MERCEDES-BENZ SPRINTER coolant

should only be performed once the corre-
sponding maintenance service has been
carried out. Resetting the ASSYST service
interval display without performing the cor-
responding maintenance service may
result in engine damage and/or damage to other vehicle parts that are not covered by
the New Vehicle Limited Warranty. Tire rotation
Your vehicle's tires are a critical component
to overall vehicle performance and stability.
The useful life of tires will vary and is propor-
tional to tire type, speed rating, ambient con-
ditions, tire loads, tire inflation pressure, road
surfaces, and individual driving style. We
therefore recommend regularly checking the
tires for wear and correct tire pressure, and -
if the tire configuration allows - that the tires are rotated regularly.
Tires can only be rotated on vehicles with the
same tire size on the front and rear axles.
If your vehicle's tire configuration allows for
tire rotation, tire rotation should be per-
formed in accordance with the recommended intervals, or sooner at the first signs of irreg-
ular (uneven) tread wear. Tire rotation rec-
ommendations will likely necessitate a tire
rotation at least at every maintenance ser-
vice.
Single tires at rear If your vehicle is equipped with tires of the
same size, tires can be rotated by following a
front-to-rear rotation pattern that will main-
tain the intended rotation (spinning) direction of the tire (on unidirectional tires, an arrow on
the sidewall indicates the intended rotation or spinning direction of the tire).
Dual tires at the rear If your vehicle is equipped with tires of the
same size, the tires on the front axle can be
rotated with the inner tires on the rear axle in pairs so that the intended rotation (spinning) direction of the tires remains the same. If the
tread pattern on the tires is not unidirectional, the outer tires on the rear axle can be rotated
from one side to the other. Diagram showing tire rotation for single and dual
tires
This Maintenance Booklet contains a practi-
cal tire rotation confirmation page, which you can use to record the date and mileage for
every tire rotation (Y page 5). Arduous operating conditions
The maintenance intervals have been deter-
mined so that under normal operating condi- tions the vehicle should operate properly
between maintenance services. Arduous
operating conditions may require that the fol-
lowing parts be replaced at shorter intervals:
R INTERIOR FILTERS
(Examples: dust filter, recirculating air fil-
ter, activated charcoal filter or combination
filter) are to be replaced as indicated by the
maintenance computer. Under severe dust conditions, or if the climate control is oper-
ated frequently in air recirculation mode,
the filters should be replaced more fre-
quently than indicated by the maintenance computer.
R COOLANT
The coolant (water/anticorrosion/anti-
freeze mixture) should be replaced at the
specified maintenance intervals.
The coolant may need to be replaced more
frequently if it is not maintained correctly Introduction
5Maintenance Booklet

and/or anticorrosion/antifreeze products
other than those approved for your vehicle
are being used. You can find coolant
instructions under the "Coolant" section of the vehicle Operator's Manual. Contact an
authorized Sprinter Dealer for a list of anti-
corrosion/antifreeze products that are
approved for your vehicle. Wear parts
The maintenance computer recommends the
inspection of certain wear parts, however, it
cannot judge the condition of these wear
parts. Only qualified aftersales technicians
can determine if a wear part should be
replaced. Regular checks
In addition to the maintenance service, you
should also perform regular checks on the
following (e.g. weekly, when refueling, or
before any long journey):
R Oil level – Depending on the vehicle equip-
ment, check the oil level of the engine using either the oil dipstick or using the control
system via the multifunction steering
wheel/multifunction display. Refer to the
Operator's Manual for more information on
measuring the engine oil level.
R Coolant level – The correct procedure for
checking the coolant level is described in
the Operator's Manual.
R Brake fluid level – If the brake fluid has to
be refilled, visit an authorized Sprinter
Dealer and have the cause determined, e.g. leakage or worn brake pads.
R Windshield washer system – If the
washer fluid level falls below 1/3 full, the
warning lamp for the washer fluid level
lights up. Add washer fluid mixed with an
approved windshield washer concentrate,
test function and check wiper blades. R
Lighting system
R Tire condition and tire pressure – Check
at least once a month. Refer to the "Tires
and Wheels" section in the Operator's Man-
ual for guidelines and the correct proce-
dure for checking the tire condition and tire
pressure. Notes on the warranty
