Index

responsible manner. Comply with the instruc-
tions for use of the care products.
Do not run the engine for longer than neces-
sary when the vehicle is stationary.
Before having maintenance and repairs per-
formed, it is essential to read the materials
related to the maintenance and repairs: R the applicable sections of the technical
documentation, e.g. the Operator's Manual
and workshop information.
R regulations such as industrial safety regu-
lations and accident prevention regula-
tions.
While working under the vehicle, you must
secure the vehicle on jack stands with suffi-
cient load capacity.
Never use the jack as a substitute. The vehi-
cle's jack is intended only to raise the vehicle for a short time when changing a wheel. It is
not suited for performing maintenance work
under the vehicle.
Please also refer to the notes about qualified
specialist workshops (Y page 25).
The scope and regularity of the inspection
and maintenance work primarily depend on
the often diverse operating conditions. Spe-
cialist knowledge beyond the scope of this
Operator's Manual is required when carrying
out testing and maintenance work. This work
should only be carried out by trained staff.
The vehicle Maintenance Booklet describes
the scope and frequency of maintenance
work and contains additional notes on the
New Vehicle Limited Warranty and on service products.
Maintenance services must be carried out in
accordance with the provisions and recom-
mendations in the Maintenance Booklet. Not
doing so could void the warranty claim and
lead to refusal of goodwill gestures after the
manufacturer has submitted a damage
report. i
Observe the information on Sprinter orig-
inal parts in the "Technical data" section
(Y page 27). Service interval display
General notes A service that is due is displayed in the service
interval display about 1 month in advance. A
message is then displayed while the vehicle is in motion or when the ignition is switched on.
i The service interval display does not pro-
vide information about the engine oil level. The service interval display should there-
fore not be confused with the 00B3engine
oil level display.
The service due date is displayed in days or
miles (kilometers), depending on the total
distance driven.
The symbols or letters on the service display
show the type of service that is due.
0099 orA A for a minor service
009A orB
B for a major service
Service due date display Vehicles with steering wheel buttons:
the
following messages may be displayed.
R 0099 Service A due in ... days Service A due in ... days
R 0099 Service A due in ... mi
Service A due in ... mi (kmkm)
R 0099 Service A Carry out now

Vehicles without steering wheel buttons:
the following messages may be displayed.
R 0099 for service A
R 009A for Service B
Additionally, you will see the remaining dis-
tance in miles (mi mi) or kilometers (km km) or the
remaining time in days (d d). Maintenance

Fuel grade

WARNING
If you mix diesel fuel with gasoline, the flash
point is lower than that of pure diesel fuel.
When the engine is running, exhaust system
components could overheat without being
noticed. There is a risk of fire.
Never refuel with gasoline. Never mix gasoline with diesel fuel.
! Filter the fuel before transferring it to the
vehicle if you are refueling the vehicle from
barrels or containers.
This will prevent malfunctions in the fuel
system due to contaminated fuel.
! Vehicles without a diesel particle fil-
ter: in countries where only diesel fuel with
a high sulfur content is available, you will
need to carry out your vehicle's oil change
at shorter intervals. Further information on
oil change intervals can be obtained at a
qualified specialist workshop.
! Sprinter diesel engine
You will damage the diesel engine if you do not refuel with ultra-low sulfur diesel or use a diesel fuel with a sulfur content greater
than 15 ppm.
! Do not use the following:
R Marine diesel
R Heating oil
R Bio-diesel
R Vegetable oil
R Gasoline
R Paraffin
R Kerosene
Do not mix such fuels with diesel fuel and
do not use any special additives. This can
otherwise lead to engine damage. This
does not include flow improver additives.
For further information, see "Flow improv-
ers".
You will generally find information about the
fuel grade on the filling pump. If there is no
identification on the filling pump, consult a
gas station attendant.
For more information about refueling
(Y page 145).
Diesel at very low outside temperatures G
WARNING
If you heat fuel system components, e.g. with a hot-air gun or open flame, these compo-
nents could be damaged. This can cause fuel to escape and ignite. Depending on the type
of damage, fuel may also not escape until the
engine is running. There is a risk of fire and
explosion.
Never heat fuel system components. Contact a qualified specialist workshop to rectify the
malfunction.
Refill only with commercially available
ULTRA-LOW SULFUR DIESEL (ULSD, maxi-
mum sulfur content 15 ppm), which fulfills the
ASTM D975 standard.
The flow properties of diesel may be inade-
quate at low outside temperatures due to
paraffin separation. Service products and capacities
