WARNING
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 use washer fluid which is suitable for
lamp lenses, e.g. MB SummerFit or MB Win-
terFit. Unsuitable washer fluid may damage
the lamp lenses of the headlamps.
When handling washer fluid, observe the
important safety notes on service products
(Y page
305).
Mixing ratio Add windshield washer concentrate to the
washer fluid all year round. Adapt the mixing
ratio to the ambient temperature. At temperatures above freezing:
X Fill up the washer fluid reservoir with a mix-
ture of water and windshield washer con-
centrate, e.g. Summerwash to prevent
smearing.
At temperatures below freezing:
X Fill up the washer fluid reservoir with a mix-
ture of water and windshield washer con-
centrate, e.g. Winterwash if there is a dan-
ger of frost.
This prevents washer fluid from freezing on
the windshield.

General notes
The following section contains important tech-
nical data for your vehicle. Additional vehicle-
specific and equipment-dependent technical
data, such as vehicle weights, can be found in
your vehicle registration papers. 312
Vehicle data
Technical data
If you brake hard, for example, the forces
acting could be up to several times the
weight force of the load. Always use multi-
ple cargo tie-down points in order to distrib-
ute the force absorption. Load the ancho-
rages evenly.
You will find additional information about
cargo tie-down points and cargo tie-down rings
in the "Securing loads" section
(Y page 244).
Cargo tie-down rings
The maximum tensile load of the cargo tie-
down rings is: Cargo tie-down
rings Permissible nomi-
nal tensile load Passenger Vans 786.5 lbf
(350 daN) Cargo Van 1124.0 lbf
(500 daN) Guide/load rails
The maximum tensile load for the cargo tie-
down points on a guide/load rail is: Cargo tie-down
point Permissible nomi-
nal tensile load Guide rail 786.5 lbf
(350 daN) Load rails on cargo
compartment floor 1124.0 lbf
(500 daN) Load rail on sidewall 225.0 lbf
(100 daN) The values specified apply only to loads placed
on the cargo compartment floor if:
R the load is secured to two cargo tie-down
points on the rail and
R the distance to the nearest load-securing
point on the same rail is approximately
3 ft
(1 m) Maximum roof load G
WARNING
If you use openings in the bodywork or
detachable parts as steps, you could:
R slip and/or fall
R damage the vehicle and cause yourself to
fall.
There is a risk of injury.
Always use secure climbing aids, e.g. a suit-
able ladder.
! Do not use the lower sliding door guide
(carriage) as a step. Otherwise, you could
damage the paneling and/or the sliding
door mechanism. G
WARNING
When you load the roof, the center of gravity
of the vehicle rises and the usual driving
characteristics, as well as steering and brak-
ing, change. The vehicle tilts more severely
when cornering and may react more slug-
gishly to steering input.
If you exceed the maximum roof load, the
driving characteristics, as well as the steer-
ing and braking, will be greatly impaired.
There is a risk of an accident.
Adjust your driving style and never exceed
the maximum roof load.
! The weight of any load carried on the roof,
including the roof carrier, must not exceed
the maximum permissible roof load.
The roof carrier supports must be mounted
at equal distances.
Install rail carriers in front of and behind the
middle prop.
! For safety reasons, only use roof carriers
that have been tested and approved for
Mercedes-Benz. This will help avoid damage. Maximum roof load
330 lbs (150 kg)
with at least three
pairs of support
points
The data is valid for a load distributed evenly
over the entire roof area. 314
