Drive Sensibly-S ave Fuel
Fuel consumption depends to a great
extent on driving habits and operating
conditions.
In order to save fuel you should:
ensure that tire pressures are
correct
not carry unnecessary loads
remove ski racks or roof-mounted
luggage racks when not in use
not warm up your engine at idle
and with the vehicle at standstill
• avoid frequent acceleration and
deceleration
• avoid frequent braking
• avoid unnecessarily high speeds
have all the maintenance jobs
specified by us carried out at
regular intervals by a MERCEDES-
BENZ service station.
Driving in low temperature weather, in
stop-and-go city traffic and on short
hops, and in hilly country as well
increases fuel consumption.
