Engine oil
General notes
!Do not use engine oil or an oil filter withspecifications deviating from those expresslyrequired for the prescribed service intervals.Do not change the engine oil or oil filter inorder to set replacement intervals longer thanthose prescribed. This could otherwise causedamage to the engine or exhaust gas after-treatment.
Follow the instructions on the service intervaldisplay for changing the engine oil. This couldotherwise cause damage to the engine orexhaust gas aftertreatment.
When handling engine oil, observe the importantsafety notes on service products (Ypage 319).
The engine oils are matched to the performanceof Mercedes-Benz engines and service intervals.You should therefore only use engine oils and oilfilters that are approved for vehicles with main-tenance systems.
For a list of approved engine oils and oil filters,consult an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center.Or visit the websitehttp://bevo.mercedes-benz.com.
The table shows which engine oils have beenapproved for your vehicle.
ModelMB-Freigabe orMB-Approval
All models229.5
Use only SAE 0W-40 or SAE 5W-40 engine oilsfor Mercedes-AMG vehicles.
iMB approval is indicated on the oil contain-ers.
Filling capacities
The following values refer to an engine oilchange, including the oil filter.
ModelCapacity
Mercedes‑AMG vehicles5.8 US qt (5.5 l)
All other models5.9 US qt (5.6 l)
Additives
!Do not use any additives in the engine oil.This could damage the engine.
Brake fluid
GWARNING
The brake fluid constantly absorbs moisture
from the air. This lowers the boiling point of
the brake fluid. If the boiling point of the brake
fluid is too low, vapor pockets may form in the
brake system when the brakes are applied
hard. This would impair braking efficiency.
There is a risk of an accident.
You should have the brake fluid renewed at
the specified intervals.
When handling brake fluid, observe the impor-tant safety notes on service products(Ypage 319).
The brake fluid change intervals can be found inthe Maintenance Booklet.
Only use brake fluid approved by Mercedes-Benz in accordance with MB-Freigabe or MB-Approval 331.0.
Information about approved brake fluid can beobtained at any qualified specialist workshop oron the Internet athttp://bevo.mercedes-benz.com.
iHave the brake fluid regularly replaced at aqualified specialist workshop and the replace-ment confirmed in the Maintenance Booklet.

Coolant
Important safety notes
GWARNING
If antifreeze comes into contact with hot com-
ponents in the engine compartment, it may
ignite. There is a risk 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 clean the
antifreeze from components before starting
the engine.
!Only add coolant that has been premixedwith the desired antifreeze protection. Youcould otherwise damage the engine.
You can find additional notes on the coolant inthe following places:
Rin the Mercedes-Benz Specifications forService Products, MB BeVo 310.1
-on the Internet athttp://bevo.mercedes-benz.com
-on the Mercedes-Benz BeVo app
Ra qualified specialized workshop
!Always use a suitable coolant mixture, evenin countries where high temperatures prevail.
Otherwise, the engine cooling system is notsufficiently protected from corrosion andoverheating.
iHave the coolant regularly replaced at aqualified specialist workshop and the replace-ment confirmed in the Maintenance Booklet.
Comply with the important safety notes for ser-vice products when handling coolant(Ypage 319).
The coolant is a mixture of water and corrosioninhibitor/antifreeze concentrate. It performsthe following tasks:
Ranti-corrosion protection
Rantifreeze protection
Rraising the boiling point
If the coolant has antifreeze protection down to-35 ‡ (-37 †), the boiling point of the coolantduring operation is approximately 266 ‡(130 †).
The antifreeze concentrate/corrosion inhibitorconcentration in the engine cooling systemshould:
Rbe at least 50%. This will protect the enginecooling system against freezing down toapproximately -35 ‡ (-37 †)
Rnot exceed 55% (antifreeze protection downto -49‡[-45 †]). Otherwise, heat will not bedissipated as effectively
Mercedes-Benz recommends a coolant or cor-rosion inhibitor/antifreeze concentrate inaccordance withMB Specifications for Service Products 310.1.
iWhen the vehicle is first delivered, it is filledwith a coolant mixture that ensures adequateantifreeze and anti-corrosion protection.
iThe coolant is checked with every mainte-nance interval at a qualified specialist work-shop.

Windshield washer system
Important safety notes
GWARNING
Windshield washer concentrate could ignite if
it comes into contact with hot engine compo-
nents or the exhaust system. There is a risk of
fire and injury.
Make sure that no windshield washer con-
centrate is spilled next to the filler neck.
!Only MB SummerFit and MB WinterFitwasher fluid should be mixed together. Thespray nozzles may otherwise becomeblocked.
Do not use distilled or de-ionized water. Other-wise, the level sensor may give a false reading.
