message in the display.
Only by using engine oil with a particularly high
quality grade, e.g. according to Sheet Number

oil change be achieved.
We recommend having the oil changed at a
qualified specialist workshop.

Information about oil consumption
!
If the vehicle is predominantly used for
short-distance driving, this could lead to a
malfunction in the automatic cleaning func-
tion for the diesel particle filter. As a result,
fuel may accumulate in the engine oil and
cause engine failure.
Therefore, if you mainly drive short distances,
you should drive on a highway or on rural
roads for 20 minutes every 310 miles
Engine oil
Approximately
3 US gal (11.5 l)
Approximately
3.3 US gal (12.5 l)
(500 km). This ensures sufficient regenera-
tion of the diesel particle filter.
Depending on the driving style, the vehicle con-
sumes a maximum of 1.0 qt (1.0 l) of engine oil
over a distance of 620 miles (1000 km).
Oil consumption may be higher if:
the vehicle is new.
R
you mainly operate the vehicle under arduous
R
operating conditions.
you frequently drive at high engine speeds.
R
Regular maintenance is one of the preconditions
for moderate rates of consumption.
You can only estimate the oil consumption after
you have driven a considerable distance.
Check the engine oil level on a regular basis, e.g.
weekly or each time you refuel (
