Battery
Warning!

Failure to follow these instructions
can result in severe injury or death.

Never lean over batteries while
connecting, 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
explosive. Keep flames or sparks
away from battery, avoid improper
connection of jumper cables,
smoking etc..

Important!

Battery replacement information:
The maintenance-free battery is located

under the rear seat cushion. To minimize
the chance for acid leakage which could
cause severe burns during a crash or
rollover, a special acid leakage resistant
battery was factory installed. A
replacement battery for the car must not
leak acid when upside down for at least
15 minutes. Your authorized Mercedes­Benz dealer can provide such a special
battery.

The service life of the battery is
dependent on its condition of charge. The
battery should always be kept sufficiently
charged, in order to last an optimum
length of time.

Therefore, we strongly recommend

that you have the battery charge
checked frequently, and corrected if
necessary, especially if you use the
vehicle less than approximately 200
miles (300 km) per month, mostly for
short distance trips, or if it is not
used for long periods of time.

Only charge a battery with a battery
charger after the battery has been
disconnected from the vehicle electrical
circuit.

Always disconnect the battery negative
lead first and connect last.

When removing and connecting the
battery, always make sure that all
electrical consumers are off and the
electronic key is in steering lock
position 0. The battery, its filler caps, the
vent tube and the opposite plug must
always be securely installed when the
car is in operation. During removal and
installation always protect the
disconnected battery positive (+)
terminal with the cover attached to the
battery.

122

While the engine is running the battery
terminal clamps must not be loosened
or detached, otherwise the generator
and other electronic components would
be damaged.

Notes:
After reconnecting the battery also

resynchronize the front seats, front seat
head restraints, the Express feature of
the power windows, and the Electronic
Stability Program (ESP) (see Power

seats, front, Head restraints, Power
windows, and Electronic stability
program in Index).

Battery Recycling

Batteries contain materials that can
harm the environment with improper
disposal.

Large 12 Volt storage batteries contain
lead.

Recycling of batteries is the
preferred method of disposal.

Many states require sellers of batteries
to accept old batteries for recycling.

123

Fuses

Before replacing a blown fuse,
determine the cause of the short circuit.

Spare fuses are supplied inside the
main fuse box. Observe amperage and
color of fuse.

A special fuse puller is supplied with
the vehicle tools.

Always use a new fuse for replacement.
Never attempt to repair or bridge a
blown fuse.

1 Main fuse box in engine

compartment
To gain access to the main fuse

box (1), release clamp (arrow),
lift the fuse box cover up and
remove it.

To close the main fuse box,
engage right end of cover and
secure with clamp.

explosive. Keep flames or sparks away

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

from battery, avoid improper
connection of jumper cables, smoking
etc..

Read all instructions before
proceeding.

If the battery is discharged, the engine

should be started with jumper cables and
the (12 V) battery of another vehicle.

Jump start the car by using the battery
terminals located under hood.

Proceed as follows:

1. Position the vehicle with the
charged battery so that the
jumper cables will reach, but
never let the vehicles touch.
Make sure the jumper cables do
not have loose or missing
insulation.

2. On both vehicles:

• Turn off engine and all lights
and accessories, except
hazard warning flashers or
work lights.

• Apply parking brake and shift
selector lever to position "P".

Important!

3. Clamp one end of the first jumper

cable to the positive (+) terminal of
the discharged battery and the
other end to the positive (+)
terminal of the charged battery.
Make sure the cable clamps do not
touch any other metal parts.

4. Clamp one end of the second
jumper cable to the grounded
negative (-) terminal of the charged
battery and the final connection to
the negative (-) terminal of the
discharged battery.

125

Important!

5. Start engine of the vehicle with

the charged battery and run at
high idle. Make sure the cables
are not on or near pulleys, fans,
or other parts that move when
the engine is started. Allow the
discharged battery to charge a
few minutes. Start engine of the
disabled vehicle in the usual
manner.

6. After the engine has started, remove

jumper cables by exactly reversing
the above installation sequence,
starting with the last connection
made first. When removing each
clamp, make sure that it does not
touch any other metal while the
other end is still attached.

Important!

A discharged battery can freeze at
approx. +14°F (-10°C). In that case, it
must be thawed out before jumper
cables are used. A frozen battery can
explode and cause personal injury.

Jumper cable specifications:

• Minimum cable cross-section of

25 mm2 or approx. 2 AWG

• Maximum length of 11.5ft. (3.5 m).

Towing the Vehicle

The rear towing eye is located at the
right, below the bumper. The front
towing eye is located on the passenger
side behind a flap in the bumper panel.

Flap removal:
Insert finger in recess of flap and pull

flap out.
Flap installation:
Engage flap at bottom and press in top

securely.

126

We recommend that the vehicle be
transported using flat bed equipment.
This method is preferable to other types
of towing.

The vehicle may be towed with all
wheels on the ground and the selector
lever in position "N" for distances up to
30 miles (50 km) and at a speed not to
exceed 30 mph (50 km/h). The
electronic key must be in steering lock
position 2.

To positively avoid a possibility of
damage to the transmission, however,
we recommend to disconnect the drive
shaft at the rear axle drive flange on
any towing beyond a short tow to a
nearby garage.

Do not tow with sling-type equipment.
Towing with sling-type equipment over
bumpy roads will damage radiator and
supports.

Use wheel lift, dolly, or flat bed
equipment, with electronic key in
steering lock turned to position 0.

Warning!

With the engine not running, there is
no power assistance for the braking
and steering systems. In this case, it
is important to keep in mind that a
considerably higher degree of effort
is necessary to brake and steer the
vehicle.

Note:
To signal turns while being towed with

hazard warning flasher in use, turn
electronic key in steering lock to
position 2 and activate combination
switch for left or right turn signal in
usual manner - only the selected turn
signal will operate.

Upon canceling the turn signal, the
hazard warning flasher will operate
again.

Caution!

Vehicles with Acceleration Slip
Regulation (ASR)

If the vehicle is towed with the front axle
raised, the engine must be shut off
(electronic key in steering lock position
0 or 1). Otherwise, the ASR will
immediately be engaged and will apply
the rear wheel brakes.

Caution!
Vehicles with Electronic Traction
System (ESP)

If the vehicle is towed with the front axle
raised, the engine must be shut off
(electronic key in steering lock position
0 or 1). Otherwise, the ESP will
immediately be engaged and will apply
the rear wheel brakes.

Caution!
Vehicles with Electronic Traction
System (ETS)

If the vehicle is towed with one axle
raised, the engine must be shut off
(electronic key in steering lock position
0 or 1). Otherwise, the ETS will
immediately be engaged and will apply
the brakes.

127

Cleaning and Care of the Vehicle

Warning!

Many cleaning products can be
hazardous. Some are poisonous,
others are flammable. Always follow
the instructions on the particular
container. Always open your car's
doors or windows when cleaning the
inside.

Never use fluids or solvents that are
not designed for cleaning your car.

In operation, your vehicle is subjected
to varying external influences which, if
gone unchecked, can attack the paint­work as well as the underbody and
cause lasting damage.

Such damage is caused not only by
extreme and varying climatic
conditions, but also by air pollution,
road salt, tar, gravel and stone
chipping. Grease and oil, fuel, coolant,
brake fluid, bird droppings, insects, tree
resins etc. should be removed
immediately to avoid paint damage.

Frequent washing reduces and/or

eliminates the aggressiveness and
potency of the above adverse influences.

More frequent washings are necessary
to deal with unfavorable conditions; for
example, near the ocean, in industrial
areas (smoke, exhaust emissions), or
during winter operation.

You should check your vehicle from
time to time for stone chipping or other
damage. Any damage should be
repaired as soon as possible to prevent
the start of corrosion.

In doing so, do not neglect the
underside of the vehicle. A prerequisite
for a thorough check is a washing of
the underbody followed by a thorough
inspection. Damaged areas need to be
re-undercoated.

Your vehicle has been treated at the
factory with a wax-base rust-proofing
in the body cavities which will last for
the lifetime of the vehicle. Post­production treatment is neither
necessary nor recommended by

Mercedes-Benz because of the

possibility of incompatibility between
materials used in the production
process and others applied later.

We have selected car-care products and
compiled recommendations which are
specially matched to our vehicles and
which always reflect the latest
technology. You can obtain Mercedes­Benz approved car-care products at
your authorized Mercedes-Benz dealer.

Scratches, corrosive deposits, corrosion
or damage due to negligent or incorrect
care cannot always be removed or
repaired with the car-care products
recommended here. In such cases it is
best to seek aid at your authorized
Mercedes-Benz dealer.

The following topics deal with the
cleaning and care of your vehicle
and give important "how-to"
information as well as references to
Mercedes-Benz approved car-care
products.

Additional information can be found in
the booklet titled "Car Care".

128

Engine Cleaning

Prior to cleaning the engine
compartment make sure to protect
electrical components and connectors
from the intrusion of water and cleaning
agents.

Corrosion protection, such as MB
Anticorrosion Wax should be applied to
the engine compartment after every
engine cleaning. Before applying, all
control linkage bushings and joints
should be lubricated. The poly-V-belt
and all pulleys should be protected from
any wax.

Car Washing
Do not use hot water or wash your car

in direct sunlight. Use only a mild car
wash detergent, such as Mercedes­Benz approved Car Shampoo.

Thoroughly spray the car with a
diffused jet of water. Direct only a very
weak spray towards the.

ventilation intake. Use plenty of water

and rinse the sponge and chamois
frequently.

Rinse with clear water and thoroughly
wipe dry with a chamois. Do not allow
cleaning agents to dry on the finish.

If the vehicle has been run through an
automatic car wash - in particular one
of the older installations -rewipe the
recessed sections in the taillamps
(designed to prevent soiling) if
necessary. No solvents (fuels, thinners
etc.) must be used.

In the winter, thoroughly remove all
traces of road salt as soon as possible.

When washing the underbody, do not
forget to clean the inner sides of the
wheels.

Tar Stains
Quickly remove tar stains before they

dry and become more difficult to
remove. A tar remover is recommended.

Window Cleaning

Use a window cleaning solution on all
glass surfaces. An automotive glass
cleaner is recommended.

Headlamps, Taillamps,
Turn Signal Lenses

Use a mild car wash detergent, such as
Mercedes-Benz approved Car
Shampoo, with plenty of water.

To prevent scratches, never apply
strong force or use a hard cloth when
cleaning the lenses. Do not attempt to
wipe dirty lenses with a dry cloth or
sponge.

Plastic and Rubber Parts
Do not use oil or wax on these parts.
Wiper Blade
Clean the wiper blade rubber with a

clean cloth and detergent solution.
Replace blade twice a year; once
before and once after winter.

129

Seat Belts
The webbing must not be treated with

chemical cleaning agents. Use only
clear, lukewarm water and soap. Do not
dry the webbing at temperatures above
176°F (80°C) or in direct sunlight.

Warning!

Do not bleach or dye seat belts as this
may severely weaken them. In a
crash they may not be able to
provide adequate protection.

Hard Plastic Trim Items

Pour Mercedes-Benz approved Interior
Care onto soft lint-free cloth and apply
with light pressure.

Headliner and

Shelf below Rear Window

Clean with soft bristle brush, or use a
dry-shampoo cleaner in case of
excessive dirt.

Instrument Cluster
Use a gentle dishwashing detergent or

mild detergent for delicate fabrics as a
washing solution. Wipe with a cloth
moistened in lukewarm solution. Do
not use scouring agents.

Steering Wheel and Gear
Selector Lever

Wipe with a damp cloth and dry
thoroughly or clean with Mercedes­Benz approved Leather Care.

Upholstery

Using aftermarket seat covers or
wearing clothing that have the
tendency to give off coloring (e.g.
when wet etc.) may cause the
upholstery to become permanently
discolored. By lining the seats with a
proper intermediate cover, contact­discoloration will be prevented.

Leather Upholstery Wipe leather
upholstery with a damp cloth and dry
thoroughly or clean with Mercedes­Benz approved Leather Care. Exercise
particular care when cleaning
perforated leather as its underside
should not become wet.

MB Tex Upholstery Pour Mercedes­Benz approved Interior Care onto soft
lint-free cloth and apply with light
pressure.

130

Up Stick

Paintwork, Painted Body
Components

Mercedes-Benz approved Paint Care
should be applied when water drops on
the paint surface do not "bead up";
normally in 3 to 5 months, depending
on climate and washing detergent used.

Mercedes-Benz approved Paint Cleaner
should be applied if paint surface
shows signs of dirt embedding (i.e. loss
of gloss).

Do not apply any of these products or
wax if your car is parked in the sun or
if the hood is still hot.

Use the appropriate MB-Touch­for quick and provisional repairs of
minor paint damage (i.e. chips from
stones, car doors etc.).

Light Alloy Wheels

Mercedes-Benz approved Wheel Care
should be used for regular cleaning of
the light alloy wheels.

If possible, clean wheels once a week
with Mercedes-Benz approved Wheel
Care, using a soft bristle brush and a
strong spray of water.

Follow instructions on container.
Note:
Use only acid-free cleaning materials.

The acid could lead to corrosion.

Engine Oils

Engine oils are specifically tested for
their suitability in our engines.
Therefore, use only engine oils
recommended by Mercedes-Benz.
Information on recommended brands is
available at your authorized Mercedes­Benz dealer.

Please follow Service Booklet
recommendations for scheduled oil
changes. Failure to do so could result in
engine damage not covered by the
Mercedes-Benz Limited Warranty.

Engine Oil Additives

Do not blend oil additives with engine
oil. They may be harmful to the engine
operation.

Damage or malfunctions resulting from
blending oil additives are not covered
by the Mercedes-Benz Limited
Warranty.

Air Conditioner Refrigerant

R-134a (HFC) refrigerant and special
PAG lubricating oil is used in the air
conditioner system.

Never use R-12 (CFC) or mineral­based lubricating oil, otherwise damage
to the system will occur.

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 hard operating conditions,
this moisture content can lead to the
formation of bubbles in the system thus
reducing the system's efficiency.

The brake fluid must therefore be
replaced every two years, preferably
in the spring.

It is recommended to use only brake
fluid approved by Mercedes-Benz.
Your authorized Mercedes-Benz dealer
will provide you with additional
information.

150

Vehicles with Gasoline Engine

Premium Unleaded Gasoline

Caution!

To maintain the engine's durability and
performance, premium unleaded
gasoline must be used. If premium
unleaded is not available and low octane
fuel is used, follow these precautions:

• have the fuel tank filled only partially

with unleaded regular and fill up with
premium unleaded as soon as
possible,

• avoid full throttle driving and abrupt

acceleration,

• do not exceed an engine speed of

3000 rpm, if the vehicle is loaded with
a light load such as two persons and
no luggage,

• do not exceed 2/3 of maximum

accelerator pedal position, if the
vehicle is fully loaded or operating in
mountainous terrain.

Fuel Requirements

Use only Premium unleaded meeting
ASTM standard D 439:

The octane number (posted at the
pump) must be 91 min. It is an average
of both the Research (R) octane
number and the Motor (M) octane
number: [(R+M)/2]. This is also known
as ANTI-KNOCK INDEX.

Unleaded gasoline containing
oxygenates such as Ethanol, I PA, IBA
and TBA can be used provided the
ratio of any one of these oxygenates to
gasoline does not exceed 10%, MTBE
not to 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..

Gasoline Additives

A major concern among engine
manufacturers is carbon build up
caused by gasoline. Mercedes-Benz
recommends the use of only quality
gasoline containing additives that
prevent the build up of carbon deposits.

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:

• warm-up hesitation,

• unstable idle,

• knocking/pinging,

• misfire,

• power loss.
Do not blend other specific fuel

additives with fuel. They only result in
unnecessary cost, and may be harmful
to the engine operation.

Damage or malfunctions resulting from
poor fuel quality or from blending
specific fuel additives are not covered
by the Mercedes-Benz Limited
Warranty.

151

Vehicles with Diesel Engine
Diesel Fuels

Use only commercially available
vehicular diesel fuels No. 2 or No. 1
(ASTM D 975 No. 2-D or No. 1-D).
If diesel fuels are used with a sulphur
content exceeding 0.5% by weight, refer
to the "Engine Oil Change and Oil Filter
Service" section. Marine diesel fuel,
heating oil or the like must not be used.

At very low temperatures the fluidity of
No. 2 diesel fuel may become
insufficient due to paraffin separation.
For this reason the vehicle comes
equipped with a fuel preheater. The fuel
preheater only works with the vehicles
interior heater operating. It permits a
troublefree engine operation to a
temperature of approximately +14°F (­10°C) when using No. 2 diesel fuel.

To avoid malfunctions, No. 2 diesel fuel
of a lowered cloud point is marketed
during the cold season.

At temperatures below +14°F (-10°C)
use winterized or No. 1 diesel fuel only.

If not available, a certain quantity of

kerosene or fuel flow improver (refer
to MB Factory Approved Service
Products pamphlet) may be added.
Mixing only to be done within the cars'
fuel tank. Kerosene has to be filled in
before the diesel fuel.

Engine power may drop according to
the proportjon of kerosene. For this
reason, keep percentage of kerosene
added to the minimum necessitated by
the ambient temperature.

The following table can be used as a
reference, if adding of kerosene
becomes necessary. The mixing ratios
shown refer to the total mixture.

Ambient temperature
+14°F to -4°F (-10°C to -20°C)
No. 2 Diesel Fuel: 70%

Kerosene: 30%
Ambient temperature

below -4°F (-20°C)
No. 2 Diesel Fuel: 50%
Kerosene: 50%

Even in extreme climatic conditions,

the maximum mixture ratio should not
exceed 50%. Adding of kerosene to
No. 1 diesel fuel is not recommended
even at low temperatures.

Do not blend other specific fuel
additives with fuel. They only result in
unnecessary cost, and may be harmful
to the engine operation. Damage or
malfunctions resulting from poor fuel
quality or from blending specific fuel
additives are not covered by the
Mercedes-Benz Limited Warranty.

Warning!

Under no circumstances should
gasoline be mixed with diesel fuel.

Always follow basic safety rules
when working with any combustible
material. Do not fill the fuel tank or
mix diesel fuel and kerosene when
smoking, near an open flame or
while the vehicle's engine is running.
An explosion or fire can result.

152

Coolants

The engine coolant is a mixture of
water and anticorrosion/antifreeze,
which provides:

• corrosion protection,

• freeze protection,

• 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 corrosion protection.

The coolant solution must be used year
round to provide the necessary
corrosion protection and increase in the
boil-over protection. You should have
it replaced every 3 years.

To provide the important corrosion
protection, the solution must be at least
45% anticorrosion/antifreeze (equals a
freeze protection to approx. -22°F
|-30°C]). If you use a solution that is
more than 55% anticorrosion/antifreeze
(freeze protection to approx. -49°F
|-45°C]), the engine temperature will
increase due to the lower heat transfer

capability of the solution. Therefore, do

not use more than this amount of
anticorrosion/ antifreeze.

If the coolant level is low, water and
MB anticorrosion/antifreeze should be
used to bring it up to the proper level
(have cooling system checked for signs
of leakage).

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, consult your authorized
Mercedes-Benz dealer.

Anticorrosion/antifreeze
Your vehicle contains a number of

aluminum parts. The use of aluminum
components in motor vehicle engines
necessitates that anticorrosion/
antifreeze coolant used in such engines
be specifically formulated to protect
the aluminum parts. (Failure to use
such anticorrosion/ antifreeze coolant
will result in a significantly shortened
service life.)

Therefore the following product is
strongly recommended for use in your
car: Mercedes-Benz Anti corrosion/
Antifreeze Agent.

Before the start of the winter season
(or once a year in the hot southern
regions), you should have the
anticorrosion/antifreeze concentration
checked. The coolant is also regularly
checked each time you bring your
vehicle to your authorized Mercedes­Benz dealer for service.

Consumer Information

This has been prepared as required of
all manufacturers of passenger cars
under Title 49, Code of U.S. Federal
Regulations, Part 575 pursuant to the
"National Traffic and Motor Vehicle
Safety Act of 1966".

Uniform Tire Quality Grading

Refer to the tire sidewall for the
specific tire grades for the tires with
which this vehicle is equipped.

All passenger car tires must conform to
federal safety requirements in addition
to these grades.

Treadwear
The treadwear grade is a comparative

rating based on the wear rate of the tire
when tested under controlled conditions
on a specified government test course.
For example, a tire graded 150 would
wear one and one-half (11/2) times as
well on the government course as a tire
graded 100. The relative performance
of tires depends upon the actual
conditions of their use, however, and
may depart significantly

from the norm due to variations in

driving habits, service practices and
differences in road characteristics and
climate.

Traction
The traction grades, from highest to

lowest, are AA, A, B, and C. Those
grades represent the tire's ability to stop
on wet pavement as measured under
controlled conditions on specified
government test surfaces of asphalt and
concrete. A tire marked C may have
poor traction performance.

Warning!

The traction grade assigned to this
tire is based on straight-ahead
braking traction tests, and does not
include acceleration, cornering,
hydroplaning, or peak traction
characteristics.

Temperature
The temperature grades are A (the

highest), B, and C, representing the
tire's resistance to the generation of
heat and its ability to dissipate heat
when tested under

controlled conditions on a specified

indoor laboratory test wheel. Sustained
high temperature can cause the material
of the tire to degenerate and reduce tire
life, and excessive temperature can
lead to sudden tire failure. The grade C
corresponds to a level of performance
which all passenger car tires must meet
under the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety
Standard No.109. Grades B and A
represent higher levels of performance
on the laboratory test wheel than the
minimum required by law.

Warning!

The temperature grade for this tire
is established for a tire that is
properly inflated and not
overloaded. Excessive speed,
underinflation, or excessive loading,
either separately or in combination,
can cause excessive heat build up
and possible tire failure.
