ting. You can find the Gross Axle Weight Rating
on the B-pillar on the driver's side.
Speed rating: the speed rating is pa rtof the tire
identification. It specifies the speed range for
which a tire is appr oved.
GV W (Gross Vehicle Weight): the Gross Vehicle
We ight includes thewe ight of theve hicle includ‐
ing fuel, tools, the spare wheel, accessories
ins talled, occupants, luggage and the trailer
dr aw bar nose weight if applicable. The Gross Vehi‐
cle Weight must ne verex ceed the Gross Vehicle
We ight Rating (GVWR) specified on the B-pillar on
th e driver's side.
GV WR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating): the
GV WR is the maximum permitted gross weight of
th e fully laden vehicle (weight of theve hicle
including all accessories, occupants, fuel, lug‐
ga ge and the trailer dr awbar nose weight if appli‐
cable). The Gross Vehicle Weight Rating is speci‐
fi ed on theve hicle identification plate on the B-
pillar on the driver's side.
Maximum weight of the laden vehicle: the
maximum weight is the sum of theve hicle's curb
we ight, weight of the accessories, maximum load
and thewe ight of thefa ctory ins talled optional
equipment.
Kilopascal (kPa): metric unitfor tire pressu re.
6.9 kPa are the equivalent of 1 psi. Ano ther unit
fo r tire pressu reis bar. 100 kilopascals (kPa) are
th e equivalent of 1 bar.
Load index: in additiontothe load-bearing index,
th e load index may also be imprinted on the side‐
wa ll of the tire. This specifies the load-bearing
capacity more precisel y.
Curb weight: thewe ight of a vehicle with stand‐
ard equipment including the maximum capacity
of fuel, oil and coolant. It also includes the air-
conditioning sy stem and optional equipment if
th ese are ins talled on theve hicle, but does not
include passengers or luggage.
Maximum tire load: the maximum tire load is
th e maximum permissible weight in kilog rams or
lbs for which a tire is appro ved.
Maximum permissible tire pressure: maximum
permissible tire pressure for one tire.
Maximum load on one tire: maximum load on
one tire. This is calculated bydividing the maxi‐
mum axle load for one axle bytwo.
PSI (pounds per square in ch):standard unit of
measurement for tire pressu re. Aspect
ratio: relationship between tire height
and tire width in percent.
Ti re pressure: pressure inside the tire applying
an outward forc eto eve rysquare inch of the
tire's su rface. The tire pressure is specified in
pounds per square inch (psi), in kilopascal (kPa)
or in bar. The tire pressure should only be cor rec‐
te d when the tires are cold.
Ti re pressure on cold tires: the tires are cold
when theve hicle has been par ked with the tires
out of direct sunlight for at least thre e hours and
th eve hicle has been driven less than 1 mile
(1.6 km).
Ti re contact sur face: the part of the tire that
comes into con tact wi th thero ad.
Ti re bead: the purpose of the tire bead is to
ensure that the tire sits securely on the wheel
ri m. There are se veral wire cores in the tire bead
to preve ntthe tire from changing length on the
wheel rim.
Side wall:the part of the tire between the tread
and the tire bead.
Special equipment weight: the combined
we ight of those optional extras that we igh more
th an there placed standard parts and more than
5 lbs (2.3 kg). These op tionalextras, su chas
high-pe rformance brakes, le vel control sy stem, a
ro of luggage rack or a high-per form ance batter y,
are not included in the curb weight and the
we ight of the accessories.
TIN (Tire Identification Number): a unique iden‐
tification number which can be used bya tire
manufacturer toidentify tires, forex ample for a
product recall, and thus identify the pur chasers.
The TIN is made up of the manufacturer identifi‐
cation code, tire size, tire type code and the man‐
ufacturing date.
Load-bearing index: the load-bearing index (also
load index) is a code that con tains the maximum
load-bearing capacity of a tire.
Tr action: traction is there sult of friction between
th e tires and thero ad sur face.
We ar indicator: narrow bars (tread wear bars)
th at are distributed overth e tire tread. If the tire
tread is le vel with the bars, thewe ar limit of
1/ 16 in (1.6 mm) has been reached.
Distribution of vehicle occupants: distribution
of vehicle occupants over designated seat posi‐
tions in a vehicle. Wheels and tires

clogging. Deposits may also
form onthe fuel
injec tor.This may reduce the engine output.
Unburned fuel can get into the oil pan. This
causes the engine oil le velto rise. This can
cause engine mechanical damage.
Obser vethefo llowing points to avoid damage
and reducing the engine output: #
Fill up with fuels with bio-diesel content
of 5% (ULSD) or less, whene ver possi‐
ble. #
Regular lych eck your engine oil le vel if
yo u use B20 fuels on a regular basis. #
Strictly follow the oil change inter vals
qu oted in the instrument clus ter and
within your Main tenance Bookl et. #
Use only engine oils and filters
appr ovedfo r use in your vehicle. #
Ifyo u do not plan todrive your vehicle
fo r se veralwe eks, comple tely fill the
fuel tank in ad vance wi thULSD fuel. Fo
r more information, consult thega sst ation
st aff. The identification of fuels with bio-diesel
con tent (ULSD or B20) must be clear. If the iden‐
tification is not clear, do not refuel. Do not refuel
with any fuels that ha venot been appr ovedfor
yo ur vehicle.

DEF consum ption and filling capacity
DEF consum ption
Like fuel consum ption, DEF consum ption is highly
dependent upon driving style and operating con‐
ditions. DEF consum ption is usually within a
ra nge of 0 and 10% of the fuel consum ption. If
necessar y,DEF mu stbe refilled in acco rdance
with the instructions when there fill message is
displa yed in the instrument clus ter.This may also
be necessary between the scheduled mainte‐

The exhaust gas af tertre atment sy stem must be
operated in conjunction with DEF if it is tofunc‐
tion cor rectl y.
If yo u operate theve hicle without DEF or with
emissions-rele vant malfunctions, the legal MOT
appr oval is in validated. You will then probably no
longer be permitted tooperate theve hicle on
public roads.
It may be improper or punishable in some coun‐
tries tooperate a vehicle that uses no DEF or one
th at does not comply with the specifications of
th ese operating instructions.
Engine management monitors theex haust gas
af te rtre atment components for compliance with
emissions la wsand regulations. If you attem ptto
operate theve hicle without DEF, with diluted DEF
or with a dif fere nt reducing agent, this will be
de tected bythe engine management sy stem.
Other emissions- releva nt malfunctions, e.g.
me tering malfunctions or sensor er rors, are also
de tected and log ged. The engine management sy
stem subsequently
pr eve nts the engine being restar ted af ter issuing
a wa rning message.
Therefore add DEF tank regular lyduring vehicle

Multig rade engine oils of the prescribed SAE clas‐

TEEngine damage due toincor rect
SA E classi fication (viscosity) of the
engine oil If
th eSA E classi fication (viscosity) of the
engine oil added is not suitable for prolonged
low outside temp eratures, it may cause
engine damage.
The temp erature readings of theSA E classi fi‐
cation are al ways based on fresh oil. Engine
oil ages when driving as a result of soot and
fuel residue. The characteristics of engine oil
de teriorate significantly at low outside tem‐
peratures. #
Use an engine oil of the appropriate SAE
classi fication at low outside temp era‐
tures. #
Use oil for all-year-round operation. The
temp erature readings of theSA E classi fica‐
tion are al ways based on fresh oil. The temp era‐
ture characteristics of the engine oil, especially at
low outside temp eratures, can de teriorate signifi‐
cantly due toaging when driving.
Therefore, Mercedes-Benz recommends that you
ch ange the engine oil before thest art of the cold
season. Only use an appr oved engine oil in the
prescribed SAE classi fication forth is purpose. The viscosity indicates
theflow characteristics of
a fluid. With rega rd toengine oil, a high viscosity
is synonymous with thick liquid and a low viscos‐
ity with thin liquid. Depending on the outside
te mp eratures, select the engine oil according to
th eSA E classi fication (viscosity). The table sho ws
th eSA E classi fications tobe used. The low tem‐
perature characteristics of engine oils can de teri‐
orate significantly during operation due toaging
and soot and fuel acc retion, forex ample. A regu‐
lar oil change with an appr oved engine oil in the
appropriate SAE classi fication is therefore
stro ngly recommended.
