Maintenance Booklet
4
We want you to enjoy your Mercedes-
Benz SLR automobile. Vehicle safety and
operational reliability are two very
important factors and to maintain them,
regular maintenance services are
necessary.
We continuously strive to improve our
product, and ask for your understanding
that we reserve the right to make
changes in the required periodic
maintenance work which is required for
our vehicles.
Your Mercedes-Benz SLR comes
equipped with the
Mercedes-Benz SLR
Maintenance System
. The Maintenance
System tracks distance driven and the
time elapsed since your last service. The
next necessary maintenance service is
indicated in the maintenance service
indicator in the instrument cluster.
Additional work that is not calculated by
the Maintenance System is required at
maintenance intervals. Please refer to
“Additional Work to be Performed” on
page 58 for more details.
Following each service, your authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center will reset the
Maintenance System service indicator by
confirming the service items performed.
!
If the Maintenance System service
counter was inadvertently reset, have
a Mercedes-Benz Center correct it.
Please only reset if the proper
maintenance service has been
performed. Resetting the system
without performing the proper service
will result in engine and/or other
vehicle damage not covered by the
Mercedes-Benz Limited Warranty.
