ning and at operating temperature, the en-

level.
It may be that there is water in the engine
oil.

level with an approved oil specified in the
Factory Approved Service Products pam-
phlet.
Possible solution
Check the engine oil level
( page 305) and add oil as required
( page 306).
If you must add engine oil frequently,
have the engine checked for possible
leaks.
Have the engine oil checked.
Have the measuring system checked
by an authorized Mercedes-Benz
Center.

The engine oil level warnings should
not be ignored. Extended driving with
