Winter Driving
Have your car winterized at an author­
ized MERCEDES-BENZ dealer before
the onset of winter.
• Engine oil change: If “year-round”
multigrade engine oil is not used,
be sure to use an SAE grade based
on ambient temperature. For re­
commended engine oil viscosities
refer to “ Fuels, Coolants, Lubri­
cants, etc.” and last page.
• Anticorrosion/antifreeze in the
coolant: Check anticorrosion/anti­
freeze protection periodically. For
capacity refer to “ Fuels, Coolants,
Lubricants, etc.".

Additive in the windshield washer
system: Add windshield washer
solvent to the water in the wind­
shield washer system.
Test battery: Battery capacity
drops with decreasing ambient
temperature. A well charged bat­
tery ensures that the engine can
always be started, even at low
ambient temperatures.
Tires: We recommend M + S radial
tires on all wheels tor the winter
season. Observe permissible maxi­
mum speed for M + S radial tires
and the legal speed limit.
Tire Chains
Use only tire chains that are tested
and recommended by us. Any author­
ized MERCEDES-BENZ dealer will be
glad to advise you on this subject.
Chains should only be used on the rear
wheels. Adhere to the manufacturer’s
mounting instructions.
After driving a short distance retighten
the mounted chains.
Tire chains should only be driven on
snow at speeds not to exceed 50 km/h/
30 mph. Remove chains as soon as
possible when driving on roads without
snow.
For tips on driving on slippery winter
roads refer to page 15.
