Fuel consumption information
HEnvironmental note
CO
2(carbon dioxide) is the gas which sci-
entists believe to be principally respon-
sible for global warming (the greenhouse
effect). Your vehicle's CO
2emissions are
directly related to fuel consumption and
therefore depend on:
Refficient use of the fuel by the engine
Rdriving style
Rother non-technical factors, such as
environmental influences, road condi-
tions or traffic flow
You can minimize your vehicle's CO
2emis-
sions by driving carefully and having it
serviced regularly.
The vehicle will use more fuel than usual in
the following situations:
Rat very low outside temperatures
Rin city traffic
Ron short journeys
Rin mountainous terrain
Engine oil
General notes
!Never use engine oil or an oil filter of a
specification other than is necessary to
fulfill the prescribed service intervals.
Do not change the engine oil or oil filter in order to achieve longer replacement inter-
vals than those prescribed. You could oth-
erwise cause engine damage or damage to
the exhaust gas aftertreatment.
Follow the instructions in the service
interval display regarding the oil change.
Otherwise, you may damage the engine and
the exhaust gas aftertreatment.
When handling engine oil, observe the impor-
tant safety notes on service products
(
Ypage 207).
The engine oils are matched to the perform-
ance of smart engines and service intervals.
You should therefore only use engine oils and
oil filters that are approved for vehicles
with maintenance systems.
Consult a smart center to view a list of
approved engine oils and filters. Or visit the
website http://bevo.mercedes-benz.com.
