required and must be correct.
Engine oil
Notes on oil level
Depending on driving style, the vehicle con-
sumes up to 0.8 l of oil per 1,000 km. The oil
consumption may be higher than this when
the vehicle is new or if you frequently drive at
high engine speeds.
AMG vehicles: before operation on race
tracks, check the oil level and (

top up if necessary (

operation is only permitted with a maximum
engine oil level.
Depending on the engine, the oil dipstick may
be installed at a different location.
When checking the oil level:
R
park the vehicle on a level surface.
R
the engine should be switched off for
approximately five minutes if the engine is
at normal operating temperature.
R
if the engine is not at normal operating
temperature, e.g. if the engine was only
started briefly: wait about 30 minutes
before carrying out the measurement.
