WARNING

Certain components in the engine compart-

ment could be very hot, e.g. the engine, the

radiator and parts of the exhaust system.

There is a risk of injury when accessing the

engine compartment.

As far as possible, allow the engine to cool

down and only touch the following compo-

nents.

G

WARNING

If engine oil comes into contact with hot com-

ponents in the engine compartment, it may

ignite. There is a risk of fire and injury.

Make sure that engine oil does not spill out

over the filler neck. Allow the engine to cool

down and thoroughly clean the components

that have come into contact with engine oil

before you start the engine.

H

Environmental note

When topping up the oil, take care not to spill

any. If oil enters the soil or waterways, it is

harmful to the environment.

!

Only use engine oils and oil filters that

have been approved for vehicles with a

service system. You can obtain a list of the

engine oils and oil filters tested and

approved in accordance with the

Mercedes-Benz Specifications for Service

Products at any Mercedes-Benz Service

Centre.

Damage to the engine or exhaust system is

caused by the following:

R

using engine oils and oil filters that have

not been specifically approved for the

service system

R

changing the engine oil and oil filter after

missing the change interval required by

the service system

R

using engine oil additives

!

Do not add too much oil. If the oil level is

above the "max" mark on the dipstick, too

much oil has been added. This can lead to

damage to the engine or the catalytic con-

verter. Have excess oil siphoned off.
