Before the onset of winter, have your vehi-
cle winterized at an authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center. This service in-
cludes:
앫
Check of anticorrosion and antifreeze
concentration.
앫

water of the windshield and headlamp
cleaning system. Add MB Windshield

vent/antifreeze which is formulated for

앫
Battery test. Battery capacity drops
with decreasing ambient temperature.
A well charged battery helps to ensure
that the engine can be started and the
electro-hydraulic brake system will be
fully operational even at low ambient
temperatures.
앫
Tire change.
Winter tires
Always use winter tires at temperatures
below 45°F (7°C) and whenever wintry
road conditions prevail. Not all M+S rated
tires provide special winter performance.
Make sure the tires you use show M+S
and the mountain/snowflake
symbol
.
marking on the tire sidewall.
These tires meet specific snow traction
performance requirements of the Rubber
Manufacturers Association (RMA) and the
Rubber Association of Canada (RAC) and
have been designed specifically for use in
snow conditions. Use of winter tires is
the only way to achieve the maximum
effectiveness of the ABS and ESP
®
in
winter operation.
For safe handling, make sure all winter
tires mounted are of the same make and
have the same tread design.
!
When scraping ice or snow from the rear
window, be careful not to damage the sealing
strip or apertures along the side of the window.
