Important safety notes
GWARNING
SD cards are small parts. They can be swal-
lowed and cause choking. This poses an
increased risk of injury or even fatal injury.
Keep the SD card out of the reach of children. If a SD card is swallowed, seek medical atten-
tion immediately.
!If you are no longer using the SD card, you
should remove it and store it outside the vehi-
cle. High temperatures can damage the card.
Inserting an SD card
The SD card slot is located in the stowage com-
partment under the armrest.

Low outside temperatures
iDiesel fuel with improved cold flow proper-
ties is available during the winter months.
Further information about fuel properties can
be obtained from oil companies, e.g. at gas
stations.
DEF
Important safety notes
Comply with the important safety notes for ser-
vice products when handling DEF (Ypage 361).
DEF is a water-soluble fluid for the exhaust gas
aftertreatment of diesel engines. It is:
Rnot poisonous
Rcolorless and odorless
Rnot flammable
When you open the DEF container, small
amounts of ammonia vapor may be released.
Ammonia vapors have a pungent odor and are
particularly irritating to the skin, to mucous
membranes and to the eyes. You may experi-
ence a burning sensation in your eyes, nose and
throat. Coughing and watering of the eyes are
possible.
Do not inhale ammonia vapors. Fill the DEF tank
only in well-ventilated areas.
Low outside temperatures
DEF freezes at a temperature of approximately
-11 †. The vehicle is delivered from the factory
equipped with a DEF preheating system. Winter
operation can thus be guaranteed even at tem-
peratures below -11 †.
Additives
!Only use DEF in accordance with ISO
22241. Do not use additives with DEF and do
not dilute DEF with water. This may destroy
the BlueTEC exhaust gas aftertreatment sys-
tem.
Purity
!Impurities in DEF (e.g. due to other service
products, cleaning agents or dust) lead to:
Rincreased emission values
Rdamage to the catalytic converter
Rengine damage
Rmalfunctions in the BlueTEC exhaust gas
aftertreatment system
Assuring the purity of DEF is particularly impor-
tant with respect to avoiding malfunctions in the
BlueTEC exhaust gas aftertreatment system.
If DEF is pumped out of the DEF tank, e.g. during
repair work, it must not be returned to the tank.
The purity of the fluid can no longer be guaran-
teed.
Filling capacities
The total capacity of the DEF tank may vary,
depending on the vehicle equipment.
ModelTotal capacity
C 300 d 4MATIC9.0 US qt (8.5 l) or
26.4 US qt (25.0 l)
Engine oil
General notes
!Do not use engine oil or an oil filter with
specifications deviating from those expressly
required for the prescribed service intervals.
Do not change the engine oil or oil filter in
order to set replacement intervals longer than those prescribed. This could otherwise cause
damage to the engine or exhaust gas after-
treatment.
Follow the instructions on the service interval
display for changing the engine oil. This could
otherwise cause damage to the engine or
exhaust gas aftertreatment.
