Practical hints Jump starting
Warning!
Failure to follow these directions will cause damage to the electronic components, and can lead to a battery explosion and severe injury or death.
Never lean over batteries while connecting or jump starting, you might get injured.
Battery fluid contains sulfuric acid. Do not allow this fluid to come in contact with eyes, skin or clothing. In case it does, immediately flush affected area with water, and seek medical help if necessary.
A battery will also produce hydrogen gas, which is flammable and very explosive. Keep flames or sparks away from battery, avoid improper connection of jumper cables, smoking, etc.
Attempting to jump start a frozen battery can result in it exploding, causing personal injury.
Read all instructions before proceeding.
If the battery is discharged, the engine can be started with jumper cables and the bat- tery of another vehicle. Observe the follow- ing: 앫 Jump starting should only be performed when the engine and catalytic convert- er are cold.
앫 Do not start the engine if the battery is
frozen. Let the battery thaw out first.
앫 Only jump start from batteries with the same voltage rating (12 V). Jump start- ing with a more powerful battery could damage the vehicle’s electrical system, which will not be covered by the Mercedes-Benz Limited Warranty.
앫 Use only jumper cables with sufficient
cross-section and insulated terminal clamps.
앫 Always make sure the jumper cables
are not on or near pulleys, fans or other parts that move when an engine is started or running.
Jump starting may only be performed on the battery installed in the engine compartment. Avoid repeated and lengthy starting attempts. Do not attempt to start the engine using a battery quick charge unit. If engine does not run after several unsuccessful starting attempts, have it checked at the nearest authorized Mercedes-Benz Center. Excessive unburned fuel generated by repeated failed starting attempts may damage the catalytic converter and may present a fire risk. Make sure the jumper cables do not have loose or missing insulation. Make sure the cable clamps do not touch any other metal part while the other end is still attached to a battery.

Vehicles with automatic transmission: Do not tow-start the vehicle.
405
Practical hints Towing the vehicle
Mercedes-Benz recommends that the vehi- cle be transported with all wheels off the ground using flatbed or appropriate wheel lift/dolly equipment. This method is pref- erable to other types of towing.
Use flatbed or wheel lift/dolly equip- ment with SmartKey in starter switch turned to position 0. Do not tow with sling-type equipment. Towing with sling-type equipment over bumpy roads will damage radiator and supports. To prevent damage during transport, do not tie down vehicle by its chassis or suspension parts. Switch off the tow-away alarm (컄 page 87) and deactivate the auto- matic central locking (컄 page 148).
406
When circumstances do not permit the recommended towing methods, the vehi- cle may be towed with all wheels on the ground or front wheels raised only so far as necessary to have the vehicle moved to a safe location where the recommended towing methods can be employed.
Vehicles with automatic transmission: Do not tow-start the vehicle.
If the vehicle is towed with the front axle raised, the engine must be shut off (SmartKey in starter switch position 0 or 1). Otherwise, the ESP will immedi- ately be engaged and will apply the rear wheel brakes. When towing the vehicle with all wheels on the ground, the gear selector lever must be in position N (manual trans- mission: gears disengaged) and the SmartKey must be in starter switch position 2. When towing the vehicle with all wheels on the ground or the front axle raised, the vehicle may be towed only for dis- tances up to 30 miles (50 km) and at a speed not to exceed 30 mph (50 km/h).
! To be certain to avoid a possibility of damage to the transmission, however, we recommend the drive shaft be dis- connected at the rear axle drive flange for any towing beyond a short tow to a nearby garage.
Warning!
If circumstances require towing the vehicle with all wheels on the ground, always tow with a tow bar if: 앫 the engine will not run 앫 there is a malfunction in the power sup- ply or in the vehicle’s electrical system as that will be necessary to adequately con- trol the towed vehicle.
Prior to towing the vehicle with all wheels on the ground, make sure the SmartKey is in starter switch position 2.
If the SmartKey is left in starter switch position 0 for an extended period of time, it can no longer be turned in the switch. In this case, the steering is locked. To unlock, re- move SmartKey from starter switch and re- insert.
Practical hints Towing the vehicle
To signal turns while being towed with the hazard warning flasher in use, turn SmartKey in starter switch to position 2 and activate the combina- tion switch for the left or right turn sig- nal in the usual manner – only the selected turn signal will operate. Upon canceling the turn signal, the hazard warning flasher will operate again.

Engine oils
Engine oils are specifically tested for their suitability in our engines and durability for our service intervals. Therefore, only use approved engine oils and oil filters re- quired for vehicles with Maintenance System (U.S. vehicles) or FSS (Canada vehicles). For a listing of approved engine oils and oil filters, refer to the Factory Approved Service Products pamphlet, or contact an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center. Using engine oils and oil filters of specifica- tion other than those expressly required for the Maintenance System (U.S. vehicles) or FSS (Canada vehicles), or changing of oil and oil filter at change inter- vals longer than those called for by the Maintenance System (U.S. vehicles) or FSS (Canada vehicles) will result in engine damage not covered by the Mercedes-Benz Limited Warranty
Please follow Maintenance System (U.S. vehicles) or FSS (Canada vehicles) recom- mendations for scheduled oil changes. Failure to do so will result in engine dam- age not covered by the Mercedes-Benz Limited Warranty.
Engine oil additives
Do not blend oil additives with engine oil. They may damage the engine. Damage or malfunctions resulting from blending oil additives are not covered by the Mercedes-Benz Limited Warranty.
Air conditioning refrigerant
R-134a (HFC) refrigerant and special PAG lubricating oil is used in the air condition- ing system. Never use R-12 (CFC) or mineral-based lubricating oil. Otherwise damage to the system will occur.
428
Brake fluid
During vehicle operation, the boiling point of the brake fluid is continuously reduced through the absorption of moisture from the atmosphere. Under extremely strenu- ous operating conditions, this moisture content can lead to the formation of bub- bles in the system, thus reducing the sys- tem’s efficiency. Therefore, the brake fluid must be re- placed every two years, preferably in the spring. Only brake fluid approved by Mercedes-Benz is recommended. An authorized Mercedes-Benz Center will provide you with additional information.
Premium unleaded gasoline
Fuel requirements
To maintain the engine’s durability and performance, premium unleaded gaso- line must be used. If premium unleaded is not available and low octane fuel is used, follow these precautions: 앫 Have the fuel tank only partially
filled with unleaded regular and fill up with premium unleaded as soon as possible.
앫 Avoid full throttle driving and abrupt
acceleration.
앫 Do not exceed an engine speed of 3000 rpm if the vehicle is loaded with a light load such as two per- sons and no luggage.
앫 Do not exceed 2/3 of maximum ac- celerator pedal position if the vehi- cle is fully loaded or operating in mountainous terrain.
Flexible Fuel Vehicles (identified by a label reading Premium gasoline or E85 only! on fuel filler flap) are de- signed to operate on premium unlead- ed gasoline or Ethanol fuel (E85), or any mixture of these two. For more information, see “Flexible Fuel Vehicles” (컄 page 431).
Use only premium unleaded fuel meeting ASTM standard D 439: 앫 The octane number (posted at the
pump) must be 91 min. It is an average of both the Research (R) octane num- ber and the Motor (M) octane number: (R+M)/2). This is also known as the ANTI-KNOCK INDEX.
Technical data Fuels, coolants, lubricants, etc.
Unleaded gasoline containing oxygenates such as Ethanol, IPA, IBA and TBA can be used provided the ratio of any one of these oxygenates to gasoline does not exceed 10%; MTBE must not exceed 15%. The ratio of Methanol to gasoline must not exceed 3% plus additional cosolvents. Using mixtures of Ethanol and Methanol is not allowed. Gasohol, which contains 10% Ethanol and 90% unleaded gasoline, can be used. These blends must also meet all other fuel requirements, such as resistance to spark knock, boiling range, vapor pressure, etc.
429
In areas where carbon deposits may be encountered due to lack of availability of gasolines which contain these additives, Mercedes-Benz recommends the use of additives approved by us for use on Mercedes-Benz vehicles. Refer to Factory Approved Service Products Pamphlet for a listing of approved product(s). Follow directions on product label.
Do not blend any specific fuel additives with fuel. This only results in unnecessary cost and may be harmful to engine opera- tion. Damage or malfunction resulting from poor fuel quality or from blending addition- al fuel additives other than those tested and approved by us for use on Mercedes-Benz vehicles listed in the Factory Approved Service Products pamphlet are not covered by the Mercedes-Benz Limited Warranty.
Technical data Fuels, coolants, lubricants, etc.
Gasoline additives
A major concern among engine manufac- turers is carbon build-up caused by gaso- line. Mercedes-Benz recommends only the use of quality gasoline containing additives that prevent the build-up of carbon depos- its. After an extended period of using fuels without such additives, carbon deposits can build up especially on the intake valves and in the combustion area, leading to engine performance problems such as: 앫 Warm-up hesitation 앫 Unstable idle 앫 Knocking/pinging 앫 Misfire 앫 Power loss
430
Flexible Fuel Vehicles
Flexible Fuel Vehicles are identified by a label reading Premium gasoline or E85 only! on fuel filler flap). These vehicles are designed to operate on premium unleaded gasoline or Ethanol fuel (E85), or on any mixture of these two. Ethanol fuel (E85) is a mixture of approxi- mately 85% Ethanol and 15% unleaded gasoline.
Switching fuels For best performance and driveability it is recommended to use either one or the oth- er fuel. A refueling pattern that alternates between the two different fuels should be avoided if possible. When switching fuels, make sure: 앫 Fuel level is below half full. 앫 Fuel level is above reserve (reserve
warning lamp is not lit).
Warning!
앫 Amount of added fuel is more than
5 gallons (20 liters).
Ethanol fuel (E85) and its fumes are highly flammable, poisonous and burn easily. Etha- nol fuel can cause serious injuries if ignited or if you come into contact with it or inhale fumes of it. Avoid inhalation of Ethanol fumes and skin contact with Ethanol. Extin- guish all open flames before fueling. Never smoke or create sparks close to Ethanol.
앫 Ignition is off during refill. 앫 Immediately after refueling engine is started and operated for at least five minutes.
These precautions and recommendations are supposed to prevent any difficulties when starting and operating the engine which otherwise may be experienced before the engine has fully adapted to the different fuel.
Technical data Fuels, coolants, lubricants, etc.
If in spite of these recommendations the engine does not perform properly, adding more gasoline (at least 3 gallons [12 liters]) to the fuel may improve the engine behavior.
Cold weather performance It is possible that starting times will signif- icantly increase at temperatures below 32°F (0°C). At low temperatures the use of a block heater is recommended (see an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center for further information). Rough idling may also be experienced at such temperatures before the engine is fully warmed up.
E85 fuel is unsuitable for use when am- bient temperatures fall below 14°F (-10°C).
431
Technical data Fuels, coolants, lubricants, etc.
Hot weather performance At ambient temperatures above 95°F (35°C) start times may increase and be accompanied by a rough idle following the start.
Cruising range E85 fuel contains less energy per gallon than gasoline. To ensure that engine per- formance with Ethanol fuel is similar to that when using gasoline, the engine must burn more Ethanol fuel. As a result, it is to be expected that the fuel consumption will increase when using E85 compared to gasoline operation.
Use of E85 may reduce your driving range.
Maintenance Please inform your authorized Mercedes-Benz Center if you use or have used E85 fuel when your vehicle is deliv- ered for maintenance or repairs.
432
Coolants
The engine coolant is a mixture of water and anticorrosion/antifreeze, which provides: 앫 Corrosion protection 앫 Freeze protection 앫 Boiling protection (by increasing the
boiling point)
The cooling system was filled at the factory with a coolant providing freeze protection to approximately -22°F (-30°C) and corro- sion protection. If the antifreeze mixture is effective to -22°F (-30°C), the boiling point of the cool- ant in the pressurized cooling system is reached at approximately 266°F (130°C).
The coolant solution must be used year-round to provide the necessary corro- sion protection and increase boil-over pro- tection. Refer to Maintenance Booklet for replacement interval. Coolant system design and coolant used determine the replacement interval. The replacement interval published in the Maintenance Booklet is only applicable if MB 325.0 anticorrosion/antifreeze solu- tion or other Mercedes-Benz approved products of equal specification (see Facto- ry Approved Service Products pamphlet) are used to renew the coolant concentra- tion or bring it back up to the proper level. To provide important corrosion protection, the solution must be at least 45% anticor- rosion/antifreeze (equivalent to freeze protection to approximately - 22°F [-30°C]).
If you use a solution that is more than 55% anticorrosion/antifreeze (freeze protec- tion to approximately - 49°F [-45°C]), the engine temperature will increase due to the lower heat transfer capability of the so- lution. Therefore, do not use more than this amount of anticorrosion/antifreeze. If the coolant level is low, water and MB 325.0 anticorrosion/antifreeze should be used to bring it up to the proper level (have cooling system checked for signs of leakage). Please make sure the mixture is in accordance with label instructions. The water in the cooling system must meet minimum requirements, which are usually satisfied by normal drinking water. If you are not sure about the water quality, con- sult an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center.
Anticorrosion/antifreeze Your vehicle contains a number of alumi- num parts. The use of aluminum compo- nents in motor vehicle engines necessitates that anticorrosion/antifreeze coolant used in such engines be specifical- ly formulated to protect the aluminum parts. (Failure to use such anticorro- sion/antifreeze coolant will result in a significantly shortened service life.) Therefore, the following product is strongly recommended for use in your vehicle: Mercedes-Benz 325.0 Anticorrosion/Anti- freeze agent.
Technical data Fuels, coolants, lubricants, etc.
Before the start of the winter season (or once a year in hot southern regions), you should have the anticorrosion/antifreeze concentration checked. The coolant is also regularly checked each time you bring your vehicle to an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center for service.
