Installing two-way radios and mobile
phones (RF transmitters)
GWARNING
The electromagnetic radiation from two-way
radios can interfere with the vehicle elec-
tronics if two-way radios are manipulated or
retrofitted incorrectly. This could jeopardize
the operating safety of the vehicle. There is
a risk of an accident.
You should have all work on electrical and
electronic components carried out at a
qualified specialist workshop.
GWARNING
If you incorrectly operate two-way radios in
the vehicle, the electromagnetic radiation
may interfere with the vehicle electronics,
for example if:
Rthe two-way radio is not connected to an
exterior antenna
Rthe exterior antenna is not correctly
mounted or is not low-reflection
This could jeopardize the operating safety of
the vehicle. There is a risk of an accident.
Have the low-reflection exterior antenna
installed at a qualified specialist workshop.
Always connect two-way radios to the low-
reflection exterior antenna when operating
in the vehicle.
!The operating permit may be invalidated ifthe instructions for installation and use oftwo-way radios are not observed.
In particular, the following requirementsmust be complied with:

Do not mix such fuels with the fuel recom-mended for your vehicle.
!To ensure the longevity and full perform-ance of the engine, only premium-gradeunleaded gasoline must be used.
If standard unleaded gasoline is unavailableand you have to refuel with unleaded gaso-line of a lower grade, observe the followingprecautions:
ROnly fill the fuel tank to half full with regu-lar unleaded gasoline and fill the rest withpremium-grade unleaded gasoline as soonas possible.
RDo not drive at the maximum speed.
RAvoid sudden acceleration and enginespeeds over 3,000 rpm.
You will usually find information about the fuelgrade on the fuel pump. If you cannot find thelabel on the fuel pump, ask the gas stationstaff.
iFor further information, consult a qualifiedspecialist workshop or visithttp://www.mbusa.com (USA only).
GLA 250, GLA 250 4MATIC:as a temporarymeasure, if the recommended fuel is not avail-able, you may also use regular unleaded gaso-line with an octane rating of 88 AKI/93 RON.
All other models:as a temporary measure, ifthe recommended fuel is not available, youmay also use regular unleaded gasoline withan octane rating of 87 AKI/91 RON. This mayreduce engine performance and increase fuelconsumption. Avoid driving at full throttle andsudden acceleration. Never refuel using gaso-line with a lower AKI.
iThe fuels you can use in your vehicle maydiffer from the information in the Operator'sManual depending on the country. The fuelsthat have been approved for your vehiclecan be found on the instruction label on theinside of the fuel filler flap.
Information on refueling (Ypage 143).

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 334).
The brake fluid change intervals can be foundin the 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 workshopor on the Internet athttp://bevo.mercedes-benz.com.
iHave the brake fluid regularly replaced at aqualified specialist workshop and thereplacement confirmed in the MaintenanceBooklet.
Coolant
Important safety notes
GWARNING
If antifreeze comes into contact with hot
components in the engine compartment, it
may ignite. There is a risk of fire and injury.
Let the engine cool down before you add
antifreeze. 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.

Comply with the important safety notes forservice products when handling coolant(Ypage 334).
The coolant is a mixture of water and corro-sion inhibitor/antifreeze concentrate. It per-forms the following tasks:
Ranti-corrosion protection
Rantifreeze protection
Rraising the boiling point
If the coolant has antifreeze protection downto -35 ‡ (-37 †), the boiling point of the cool-ant during operation is approximately 266 ‡(130 †).
Theantifreeze 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 notbe dissipated 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 fil-led with a coolant mixture that ensures ade-quate antifreeze and anti-corrosion protec-tion.
iThe coolant is checked with every mainte-nance interval at a qualified specialist work-shop.

Important safety notes
GWARNING
Windshield washer concentrate is highly
flammable. If windshield washer concentrate
gets onto hot components of the engine or
the exhaust system, it can ignite. There is a
risk of fire and injury.
Make sure that windshield washer concen-
trate is not spilled in the vicinity of 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.
When handling washer fluid, observe theimportant safety notes on service products(Ypage 334).
