General notes
Depending on your driving style, the vehicle
consumes up to 0.9 US qt (0.8 l) of oil per
600 miles (1000 km). The oil consumption may
be higher than this when the vehicle is new or if
you frequently drive at high engine speeds.
Depending on the engine, the oil dipstick may be
in a different location.
When checking the oil level:
Rpark the vehicle on a level surface
Rthe engine should be switched off for approx-
imately five minutes if the engine is at normal
operating temperature
Rif the engine is not at normal operating tem-
perature, e.g. if the engine was only started
briefly, wait about 30 minutes before carrying
out the measurement
Checking the oil level using the oil dip-
stick (except Mercedes-AMG S 65)
Example: checking the oil level using the oil
dipstick
XPull oil dipstick0043out of the dipstick guide
tube.
XWipe off oil dipstick 0043.
XSlowly slide oil dipstick 0043into the guide tube
to the stop, and take it out again.
If the level is between MIN mark 0087and MAX
mark 0044, the oil level is correct.
XIf the oil level has dropped to MIN mark 0087or
below, add 1.1 US qt (1.0 l)of engine oil.
