Index

Uniform Tir eQ ualit yG rading StandardsAu nifor ms tandard to grade the quality of tires
with regards to tread quality, tire traction and
temperature characteristics. The quality grad-
ing assessmen tism ade by the manufacturer
following specification sf rom the U.S .g overn-
ment .T he ratings are molded int ot he sidewall of
the tire.
Recommended tir ep re ssuresThe recommended tire pressure applies to the
tires mounted at the factory.
The Tire and Loading Information placard con-
tains the recommended tire pressures for cold
tires on af ully loaded vehicle and for the maxi-
mum permissible vehicle speed.
The tire pressure table contains the recommen-
ded pressures for cold tires for various operat-
ing conditions, i.e. differin gl oad and speed con-
ditions.
Increased vehicle weight due to optional
equipment The combined weight of all standard and
optional equipment available for the vehicle,
regardless of whether it is actually installed on
the vehicle or not.
Rim This is the part of the wheel on which the tire is
mounted.
GAWR (Gross Axle Weight Rating) The GAWR is the maximum gross axle weight
rating. The actual load on an axle must never
exceed the gross axle weight rating. The gross
axle weight ratin gc an be found on the vehicle
identification plate on the B-pillar on the driver's
side.
Speed rating
The speed ratin gisp art of the tire identification.
It specifies the speed range for which the tire is
approved.
GVW (Gross Vehicle Weight)
The gross vehicle weight includes the weight of
the vehicle includin gf uel, tools, the spare wheel,
accessories installed, occupants, luggage and
the drawbar noseweight ,ifa pplicable. The gross
vehicle weight must not exceed the gross vehi-
cle weight ratin gG VWR as specified on the vehi-
cle identification plate on the B-pillar on the
driver' ss ide. GVW R( Gross Vehicle Weight Rating)The GVWR is the maximum permissible gross
weight of af ully loaded vehicle (the weight of the
vehicle includin ga ll accessories, occupants,
fuel, luggage and the drawbar n oseweight ,i f
applicable). The gross vehicle weight ratin gi s
specified on the vehicle identification plate on
the B-pillar on the driver' ss ide.
Maximum loaded vehicle weight The maximum weight is the sum of: R
the curb weight of the vehicle R
the weight of the accessories R
the load limit R
the weight of the factory installed optional
equipment
Kilopascal (kPa) Metric unit for tire pressure. 6.9 kPa corre-
sponds to 1p si. Another unit for tire pressure is
bar. 100 kilopascals (kPa) are the equivalent of
1b ar.
Load index In addition to the load-bearin gi ndex ,t he load
index may also be imprinted on the sidewall of
the tire. This specifies the load-bearin gc apacity
more precisely.
Curb weight The weight of av ehicle with standard equipment
includin gt he maximum capacit yoff uel, oil and
coolant .Ita lso includes the air-conditionin gs ys-
tem and optional equipment if these are instal-
led in the vehicle, but does not include passen-
gers or luggage.
Maximum load rating
The maximum tire load is the maximum permis-
sible weight in kilogram sorl bs for which at ire is
approved.
Maximum permissible tir ep re ssure
Maximum permissible tire pressure for one tire.
Maximum load on one tire
Maximum load on one tire. This is calculated by
dividing the maximum axle load of one axle by
two.306

Use only SAE 0W-40 or SAE 5W-40 engine oils
for Mercedes-AMG vehicles.

Additives
! Do not use any additives in the engine oil.
This could damage the engine.
Brake fluid
G WARNING
The brake flui dc onstantly absorbs moisture
from the air. This lowers the boiling point of
the brake fluid. If the boiling point of the brake
flui dist oo low ,v apo rp ockets may form in the
brake system when the brakes are applied
hard. This would impair braking efficiency.
There is ar isk of an accident.
You should have the brake flui dr enewe da t
the specified intervals.
When handling brake fluid, observe the impor-
tant safety notes on service products
( Y
pag e3 15).
The brake flui dc hange interval sc an be found in
the Maintenance Booklet.
Only use brake flui da pproved by Mercedes-
Benz in accordance with MB-Freigabe or MB-
Approva l3 31.0.
Information about approved brake flui dc an be
obtained at any qualified specialist workshop or
on the Internet at
http://bevo.mercedes-benz.com. i Have the brake flui dr egularl yr eplaced at a
qualified specialist workshop and the replace-
ment confirmed in the Maintenance Booklet.
Coolant
Important safety notes
G WARNING
If antifreeze comes into contact with hot com-
ponents in the engine compartment, it may
ignite. There is ar isk of fire and injury.
Let the engine cool down before you add anti-
freeze. Make sure that antifreeze is not spilled
next to the filler neck. Thoroughly clea nt he
antifreeze from components before starting
the engine.
! Only add coolant that has been premixed
with the desired antifreeze protection. You
coul do therwise damage the engine.
Further information on coolants can be found
in the Mercedes-Benz Specifications for Ser-
vice Products, MB BeVo 310.1, e.g. on the
Internet at http://bevo.mercedes-benz.com.
Or contact aq ualified specialist workshop.
! Always use as uitable coolant mixture, even
in countries where high temperatures prevail.
Otherwise, the engine cooling system is not
sufficiently protected from corrosio na nd
overheating.
i Have the coolant regularl yr eplaced at a
qualified specialist workshop and the replace-
ment confirmed in the Maintenance Booklet.
Comply with the important safety precautions
for service products when handling coolant
( Y
pag e3 15).
The coolant is am ixture of water and corrosion
inhibitor/antifreeze concentrate. It performs
the following tasks: R
Anti-corrosion protection R
Antifreeze protection R
Raising the boiling point
If the coolant has antifreeze protection down to
-35 ‡( -37 †), the boiling point of the coolant
during operation is approximatel y2 66 ‡
(130 †).318

Technical data

The antifreeze concentrate/corrosion inhibitor
concentration in the engine cooling system
should: R
be at least 50%. This will protec tt he engine
cooling system against freezin gd own to
approximately -35 ‡( -37 †)R
not exceed 55% (antifreez ep rotection down

fire and injury.
Make sure that no windshield washer con-
centrate is spilled next to the filler neck.
! Only MB SummerFi ta nd MB WinterFit

Do not use distille dord e-ionized water. Other-
wise, the leve ls ensor may give af als er eading. When handling washer fluid, observe the impor-
tant safety notes on service products
( Y
pag e3 15).
At temperatures above freezing: X
Fill the washer flui dr eservoir with am ixture of
water and windshield washer fluid, e.g. MB
SummerFit.
Add 1p art MB SummerFi tto1 00 parts water.
At temperatures below freezing: X
Fill the washer flui dr eservoir with am ixture of
water and washer fluid, e.g. MB WinterFit.
For the correct mixing ratio refer to the infor-
mation on the antifreeze reservoir.

Climate control system refrigerant
Important safety notes The climate control system of you rv ehicl eisf il-
led with refrigerant R ‑ 134a.
The instruction label regarding the refrigerant
type use dc an be found on the left, on the under-
side of the hood.
! Only the refrigerant R ‑ 134a and the PAG oil
approved by Mercedes-Benz may be used.
The approved PAG oil may not be mixed with
any other PAG oil that is not approved for
R-134a refrigerant. Otherwise, the climate
control system may be damaged.
Service work, such as refilling with refrigerant or
replacing component parts, may only be carried
out by aq ualified specialist workshop. All appli-
cabl er egulations, as wel lasS AE standard J639,
must be adhered to.
