Information about short-distance trips
If the vehicle is predominantly used for short-dis‐
tance driving, fuel may accumulate in the engine
oil and cause engine damage.
Vehicles with a malfunction display (during
short-distance trips)
If one of the following displays appears, drive at
an engine speed of at least 2,000 rpm until the
indicator lamp or the display message in the dis‐
play disappears, at the earliest possible opportu‐
nity:
R
the indicator lamp for the diesel particle filter
in the instrument display lights up.
Observe the notes on regeneration
(
/
page 125).
R
the Exhaust filter Drive at high engine speeds
See Owner's Manual message appears on the
multifunction display.
On vehicles with automatic transmission, shift to
a lower gear (
/
page 130).
Switch the ECO start/stop function off in vehi‐
cles with this function.
The diesel particulate filter's burn-off process is
assisted by the intentional temperature increase.
If the indicator lamp or the display message does
not go out after approximately 40 minutes, con‐
sult a qualified specialist workshop immediately.
Vehicles without a malfunction display (dur‐
ing short-distance trips)
If you mainly drive short distances, you should
drive on a motorway or go for a country drive for
20 minutes every 500 km. This facilitates the
regeneration of the diesel particulate filter.
Notes on the speed limitation
& WARNING Risk of injury through exceed‐
ing the specified tyre load-bearing capa‐
city or the permissible speed rating
Exceeding the specified tyre load-bearing
capacity or the permissible speed rating may
lead to tyre damage and to the tyres bursting.
#
Therefore, only use tyre types and sizes
approved for your vehicle model.
#
Observe the tyre load-bearing capacity
rating and speed rating required for
your vehicle.
As the driver, you must find out about the maxi‐
mum permissible speed for the tyres (tyre and
tyre pressure). In particular, observe the legal
requirements for tyres for the country you are in.
You can permanently limit the speed of your vehi‐
cle.
Mercedes-Benz recommends a qualified special‐
ist workshop for programming the speed limita‐
tion.
On vehicles with a limiter, you can temporarily or
permanently limit the speed of your vehicle using
the on-board computer (
/
page 157).
Before overtaking, take into consideration that
the engine speed limiter prevents the speed
increasing beyond the programmed speed limita‐
tion.
On downhill gradients, the speed limitation may
be exceeded. Apply the brakes if necessary.
Display messages indicate that you are approach‐
ing the limit speed.
Information about foreign trips
Service
An extensive Mercedes-Benz service is also avail‐
able abroad. Nevertheless, please remember that
services or spare parts may not be available
immediately. The relevant workshop directories
are available from a Mercedes-Benz Service
Centre.
Fuel
In some countries, only fuels with a low octane
number or increased sulphur content are availa‐
ble.
Mercedes-Benz recommends installing a fuel fil‐
ter with a water separator for countries with an
increased water content in diesel.
Unsuitable fuel can cause engine damage. Infor‐
mation about fuel can be found in the "Fuel" sec‐
tion (
/
page 351).
Information about transport by rail
Transporting your vehicle by rail may be subject
to certain restrictions or require special meas‐
ures to be taken in some countries due to varying
tunnel heights and loading standards.
You can obtain information about this from any
Mercedes-Benz Service Centre.
