Fig. 214. For the container capacity, please refer
to¢ page 288 .
Clean water should be used when topping up. If
possible, use soft water to prevent scaling on the
washer jets. Always add washer fluid to the wa
ter. In cold weather you should add anti-freeze to
the water to prevent it from freezing.
CD CAUTION
- The anti-freeze concentration must be
matched to the climate of the country in
which you are driving. If the concentration
is too high, damage to the car may result.
- Never put in radiator anti-freeze or other
additives.
- Never use washer fluid which contains paint
thinners or solvents as it can damage the
paintwork.
Service interval display
The service interval display detects when the
next service is due for your vehicle .
There are two service interval display levels:
- Inspection or oil change reminder: After a cer
tain mileage, a service reminder will appear on
the infotainment display each time the ignition
is switched on/off. The distance or time re
maining will be shown briefly.
- Inspection or oil change due: When your vehi
cle is due for an inspection, oil change or both,
the corresponding reminder Inspection due!,
Oil change due! or Oil change and inspection
due! will appear briefly after you switch the ig
nition on/off.
Checking the service intervals
You can look up the distance and time remaining
until the next oil change and next service inspec
tion. Select the following on the infotainment
system: IM EN u I button > Car > left control but
ton > Servicing & checks > Service intervals.
Applies to: vehicles with flexible oil change serv
ice

CX) You
cannot check the service interval on a new
vehicle until it has been driven for about 500 km.
Qualified workshops reset the service interval af
ter the oil is changed. The distance to the next oil
change is initially displayed based on the driving
profile prior to the oil change. Your own personal
driving profile is used subsequently to calculate
the remaining distance. Frequent cold starts or
short trips place extra demands on the engine oil
with the result that the oil has to be changed
more often.
Resetting the display
Your qualified workshop resets the service inter
val display after each service.
It is very important that you reset the oil change
display if you change the oil yourself. The next oil
change will be due after a fixed service interval.
To reset the display, select the following on the
infotainment system: !MENU! button> Car > left
control button > Servicing & checks > Service in
tervals > Reset oil change interval.
CD CAUTION
- Do not reset the oil change interval display
unless you have changed the oil.
- Keeping to the correct service intervals is
most important for the service life and re
sidual value of the vehicle (and especially
for the life of the engine). Services must al
ways be carried out promptly, even if the
mileage is low. Checking
