maintenance.
A maintenance booklet is delivered
with your car listing all the main
tenance jobs that must be carried
out after the following mileages.
•
Once after 1300— 1600 k m /
800— 1000 miles.

tional maintenance jobs every
48 000 km / 30 000 miles and MB
individual maintenance as required.
Renew brake fluid once a year,
preferably in spring. Use only

The vehicle must receive the pre
scribed maintenance and/or lubri
