The antifreeze/corrosion inhibitor concentra-
tion in the engine cooling system should:
be at least 50 %. This will protect the engine
R
cooling system against freezing down to
approximately -37 †.
not exceed 55 % (antifreeze protection
R
down to -45 †). Heat will otherwise not be
dissipated as effectively.
If the vehicle has lost coolant, top it up with
equal amounts of water and antifreeze/cor-
rosion inhibitor. Mercedes-Benz recom-
mends an antifreeze/corrosion inhibitor in
accordance with MB Specifications for
Service Products 310.1.
The coolant is checked at every maintenance
interval at a qualified specialist workshop.
i
When the vehicle is first delivered, it is fil-
led with a coolant mixture that ensures
adequate antifreeze and corrosion protec-
tion.
