Special Operating Conditions
Winter Driving
Have your car winterized in a
MERCEDES-BENZ service station
before the onset of w inter.
• Engine oil change: If no “ all-year-
ro u n d ” engine oil is used, fill with
recom m ended w inter oil. For vis
cosity and capacity, refer to
“ Fuels, Coolants, Lubricants, etc.
and last page” .
• For diesel fuels, refer to page 87
and last page.
• Antifreeze in the coolant: Check
antifreeze p rotection periodically.
For capacity refer to “ Fuels,
Coolants, Lubricants, e tc .” .
• Additive in the w indshield w asher
system : Add w indshield w asher
solvent to the w ater in the
w indshield w asher system .
• Test battery: Battery capacity
drops with decreasing am bient
tem perature. A well charged bat
tery ensures that the engine can
always be started, even at low
am bient tem peratures.
• Tires: We recom m end M + S
radial tires on all w heels fo r the
w inter season. Observe perm issi
ble maximum speed fo r M + S
radial tires and the legal speed
limit.
Hints for Driving
The m ost im portant rule fo r slippery
or icy roads is to drive sensibily and to
avoid abrupt acceleration, braking
and steering action. Do not use the
cruise control system under such
conditions.
When the vehicle is in danger of
skidding, move selector lever to
position “ N” . Try to keep the vehicle
under control by means of corrective
steering action.
Provided the traffic co n d ition s will
allow, only brake in a way that the
w heels are locked fo r no m ore than
fractions of a second as otherw ise the
steerability of the vehicle is lost.
Road salts can adversely affect
braking efficiency. Increased pedal
fo rce may become necessary to
produce the normal brake effect. We
therefore recom m end depressing the
brake pedal repeatedly when travel
ling on salt-strew n roads at length.
This can bring road salt impaired
braking efficiency back to normal. A
prerequisite is, however, that this is
possible w ith o u t endangering other
drivers on the road.
If the vehicle is parked after being
driven on salt treated roads, the
braking efficiency should be tested as
soon as possible after driving is
resum ed while adhering to the safety
requirem ents. Should the braking
efficiency have deteriorated co n sid er
ably it can be im proved again by
braking several times.
