1 Coolant reservoir cap
2 Marking for coolant level
The coolant level can be checked visu­
ally at the transparent coolant reser­
voir.
To check the coolant level, the vehicle
must be parked on level ground.
The coolant level must reach:
The marking (2, arrow) on the reservoir
when the engine is cold.
Approx. 1 cm (0.4 in) higher when the
engine is at operating temperature.
Adding Coolant
If coolant has to be added, a 50/50
mixture of water and MB anticorrosion/
antifreeze should be used.
Checking Coolant Level
• Do not open the engine hood if
you see or hear steam or coolant
escaping from the engine com­
partment. With the engine idling
and the climate control system
switched off, wait until no steam
or coolant can be seen before
opening the hood.
• Do not remove pressure cap on
coolant reservoir if engine tem­
perature is above 90° C (194° F).
Allow engine to cool down
before removing cap. The cool­
ant reservoir contains hot water
and is under pressure.
• Using a rag, turn cap to first
notch to relieve excess
pressure. If opened immediately,
hot scalding fluid and steam will
be blown out under pressure.
The drain plugs are located on the right
side of the engine and on the radiator
bottom.
