Mercedes-Benz recommends regular checksfor wear and proper inflation and, if applicableto your vehicle’s tire configuration, tirerotation.Tire rotations can be performed on vehicleswith the same front and rear tire dimensions.If your vehicle is equipped with the same tiredimensions, tires can be rotated by observinga front-to-rear rotation pattern that willmaintain the intended rotation (spinning)direction of the tire (on unidirectional tires, anarrow on the sidewall indicates the intendedrotation or spinning direction of the tire). Insome cases, such as when your vehicle isconfigured with staggered sizes (different tiresizes, front vs. rear), tire rotations are notpossible.If your vehicle’s tire configuration allows fortire rotation, tire rotation should beperformed in accordance with therecommended intervals, or sooner at firstsigns of irregular (uneven) tread wear. Tirerotation recommendations will likelynecessitate a tire rotation at least once inbetween maintenance services and at everymaintenance service based on Mercedes-Benz maintenance intervals.For your convenience, this MaintenanceBooklet contains a tire rotation confirmationpage on which you can record the date andmileage when tire rotations were performed(Y page 63).

Severe operating conditionsThe maintenance intervals have beendetermined so that the vehicle, under normaloperating conditions, should operateproperly between maintenance services.Severe operating conditions may call forcorrespondingly sooner replacement of thefollowing items:RInterior filters

(e.g. dust filter, recirculating air filter,activated charcoal filter or combination

filter) are replaced as called for by theMaintenance System. Under severe dustconditions, or with the Climate Controlfrequently operating in the air recirculationmode, the filter should be replaced morefrequently than indicated by theMaintenance System.RSpark plugs

Spark plugs should be replaced accordingto the specified maintenance interval.Severe operating conditions (frequentstarting and stopping, excessive idling,sustained fast highway driving) may call forspark plugs to be replaced correspondinglysooner.RCoolant

Have the coolant (water/anticorrosion/antifreeze mixture) replaced at thespecified maintenance interval. In vehicleswith the 275 engine, the coolant should bechecked for proper concentration beforethe start of each winter season (or once ayear in hot regions).Replacement of coolant may be requiredmore frequently if coolant is not maintainedaccording to instructions and/or otherthan approved anticorrosion/antifreezeproducts for your vehicle are being used.For instructions on coolant, see "Coolants"in your vehicle Operator's Manual. For alisting of approved anticorrosion/antifreeze products for your vehicle,contact your authorized Mercedes-BenzCenter.

Wear itemsWhile the Maintenance System calls forinspection of certain wear items, the systemdoes not make any judgment on the conditionof these wear items. Only a qualifiedtechnician can determine if a wear item needsto be replaced.

Emission System Maintenance

Gasoline EnginesThe U.S. Environmental Protection Agencyand, in California, the Air Resources Boardhave certified that the emission controlsystems of your vehicle comply with theapplicable exhaust emission standards forMY 2012 vehicles.To be certain that the emission controlsystems function as designed, regularmaintenance is necessary for components ofthe vehicle which affect exhaust andevaporative emissions composition.The vehicle owner is responsible for theregular maintenance of the emission controlsystem, as well as the use of premiumunleaded gasoline with an anti-knock index ofat least 91 (displayed on the pump) in allgasoline engine models unless otherwisespecified.Failure to properly maintain the emissionsystem may result in repairs not beingcovered by the emission system warranties.Explanations of each maintenance job aregiven on (Y page 11).

Emission Control System Caution –Gasoline Engines

Your Mercedes-Benz vehicle is equipped withboth a three-way catalyst and a closed loopoxygen sensor system to comply with current

exhaust emission regulations. Keep yourvehicle in proper operating condition byfollowing our recommended maintenanceinstructions as outlined.The following must be adhered to:a) In all gasoline engine models, use only premium unleaded gasoline with an anti-knock index of at least 91 (as displayed on the pump) unless otherwise specified. Damage to the engine could occurif premium unleaded fuel is not used. Refer tothe Operator’s Manual for specialprecautions.b) Leaded gasoline should not be used under any circumstances. Damage to theemission control components will result.c) In select models, the use of Ethanol (E85) is also permissible. Models capableof also operating with E85 are identified by alabel on the fuel filler flap reading ’Premiumgasoline or E85 only!’. Do not use Ethanol fuel(E85) to operate any vehicle unless it isspecifically identified as Ethanol fuel (E85)compatible. Damage to the engine couldoccur if improper fuels are used. Refer to theOperator’s Manual for special precautions.d) The specified engine maintenance jobs must be performed completely and at the required intervals. Properly functioningspark plugs for instance are important for theservice life of the catalysts. Failure to properlyperform the specified maintenance jobs mayadversely affect the emission control systemon the vehicle and reduce its service life.e) The operation of the emission control system must not be altered in any way.Alterations are not permissible by law. Inaddition, alterations may result in damage tothe catalysts, increased fuel consumption,and impaired engine running conditions.f) Irregular engine running conditions should be corrected immediately by an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center. Suchirregular running conditions can influence the

Emission Control System Caution –Diesel Engines

Your Mercedes-Benz is equipped withemission control devices to comply withcurrent diesel exhaust emission regulationswhere the vehicle is certified for sale. Keepyour vehicle in proper operating condition byfollowing our recommended maintenanceinstructions as outlined.The following must be adhered to:a) Diesel engines require ULTRA-LOWSULFUR HIGHWAY DIESEL FUEL (15ppmSULFUR MAXIMUM) that meets the ASTMD975 standard. Failure to use ULTRA-LOWSULFUR HIGHWAY DIESEL FUEL (ULSD) canseverely damage the vehicle's exhaust after-treatment device.b) Mercedes-Benz USA approves the use ofB5 (standard ULSD which may contain amaximum of 5% biodiesel) in all BlueTECdiesel engines.Diesel fuels containing a higher proportion ofbiodiesel, e.g. B20, as well as straightbiodiesel may cause severe damage to yourengine/fuel system and are not approved.Please ask your service station for furtherinformation. If the B5 biodiesel blend is notsufficiently labeled to clearly indicate that itmeets the USLD standard, please do not useit. The Mercedes-Benz Limited Warranty doesnot cover damage caused by the use of fuelsnot meeting Mercedes-Benz approved fuelstandards.

c) The specified engine maintenance jobs have to be performed completely and at the required intervals.d) The operation of the emission control system must not be altered in any way.Alterations are not permissible by law. Inaddition, alterations may result in damage tothe catalysts, increased fuel consumption,and impaired engine running conditions.If the "CHECK ENGINE" indicator lamp in theinstrument cluster illuminates when theengine is running, it indicates a possiblemalfunction of the engine managementsystem or emission control system.We recommend that you have themalfunction checked as soon as possible.

Description of Emission SystemMaintenance Jobs

The composition of exhaust emissions isinfluenced not only by the special emissioncontrol equipment, but also by various enginecomponents and their adjustments.Therefore, emission system maintenancemust include these engine components.Some maintenance jobs are actually onlytests. They are important however, becausethey allow early detection of discrepancieswhich can later lead to increased exhaustemissions. It is generally less expensive tohave such items adjusted immediately ratherthan allowing them to contribute to costlyrepairs. The maintenance intervals have beendetermined so that the vehicle, under normalconditions, should operate properly betweenservices.

Changing the engine oil and filterChange the engine oil and oil filter every10,000 miles or 1 year. If oil consumptionshould increase, determine the cause andtake necessary corrective steps. Do not resetthe Maintenance System service indicator ifthe oil level is adjusted or changed outsidethe interval of 10,000 miles or 1 year.

Replacing the air filterUnder normal dust conditions, replace the airfilter at every 40,000 miles or 4 years. Invehicles with engine 275 replace the air filterat every 60,000 miles or 6 years. Clean airfilter cover and housing prior to removal of airfilter.

Replacing the fuel filterReplace the fuel filter every 150,000 miles or15 years. In diesel vehicles replace every20,000 miles or 2 years.

Replacing spark plugsSpark plugs are subject to electrode erosionand must be replaced according to thespecified maintenance intervals, or morefrequently as may be required when subjectto severe operating conditions.

Evacuating and filling up DEF (DieselExhaust Fluid)

Fill up DEF every 10,000 miles or 1 year.Evacuate and fill up DEF every 20,000 milesor 2 years.
