Always use a suitable coolant mixture,

even in countries where high temperatures

prevail.

Otherwise, the engine cooling system is not

sufficiently protected from corrosion and

overheating.

Have the coolant regularly replaced at a

qualified specialist workshop and the

replacement confirmed in the Maintenance

Booklet.

Comply with the important safety precautions

for service products when handling coolant

(

Y page 365).

The coolant is a mixture of water and anti-

freeze/corrosion inhibitor. It performs the

following tasks:

corrosion protection

antifreeze protection

raising the boiling point

If the coolant has antifreeze protection down

to -35 ‡(-37 †), the boiling point of the cool-

ant during operation is approximately 266 ‡

(130 †).

The antifreeze/corrosion inhibitor concentra-

tion in the engine cooling system should:

be at least 50%. This will protect the engine

cooling system against freezing down to

approximately -35 ‡ (-37 †).

not exceed 55% (antifreeze protection

down to -49 ‡ [-45 †]). Otherwise, heat

will not be dissipated as effectively.

Mercedes-Benz recommends coolant or anti-

freeze/corrosion inhibitor concentrate in

accordance with MB Specifications for Ser-

vice Products 310.1.

When the vehicle is first delivered, it is fil-

led with a coolant mixture that ensures

adequate antifreeze and corrosion protec-

tion.

The coolant is checked with every main-

tenance interval at a qualified specialist

workshop.

Important safety notes

WARNING

Windshield washer concentrate could ignite if

it comes into contact with hot engine compo-

nents or the exhaust system. There is a risk of

fire and injury.

Make sure that no windshield washer con-

centrate is spilled next to the filler neck.

Do not add distilled or de-ionized water to

the washer fluid container. Otherwise, the

level sensor may be damaged.

Only MB SummerFit and MB WinterFit

washer fluid should be mixed together. The

spray nozzles may otherwise become

blocked.

When handling washer fluid, observe the

important safety notes on service products

(

Y page 365).

At temperatures above freezing:

Fill the washer fluid reservoir with a mixture

of water and windshield washer fluid, e.g.

MB SummerFit.

Add 1 part MB SummerFit to 100 parts water.

At temperatures below freezing:

Fill the washer fluid reservoir with a mixture

of water and washer fluid, e.g. MB Winter-

Fit.

For the correct mixing ratio refer to the

information on the antifreeze reservoir.
