Closing
Lower the bonnet and let it drop closed
from a height of about 20 cm.
You will hear the bonnet catch engag-
ing.
Check that the bonnet has engaged
properly.
If the bonnet can be raised slightly, it is
not properly locked. Open it again and
close it with a little more force.
Engine oil
The vehicle consumes a maximum of 0.8 l
of oil per 1,000 km, depending on the driv-
ing style adopted. Oil consumption may
also be higher if:
the vehicle is new
you often drive at high engine speeds
You will only be able to estimate the oil
consumption after you have driven a con-
siderable distance.
i
Lubricant additives may not be used since
they could damage the assemblies. The use of
such additives, which have not been approved by
Mercedes-Benz, will result in limitation of war-
ranty rights.
You may obtain further information from any
Mercedes-Benz Service Centre.
