Recommended fluids and
lubricants
Only use products that meet the
recommended specifications.
9 Warning
Operating materials are
hazardous and could be
poisonous. Handle with care. Pay
attention to information given on
the containers.
Engine oil
Engine oil is identified by its quality
and its viscosity. Quality is more
important than viscosity when
selecting which engine oil to use. The
engine oil quality ensures e.g. engine
cleanliness, wear protection and
engine oil aging control, whereas
viscosity grade gives information on
the engine oil's thickness over a
temperature range.
Select the appropriate engine oil
based on its quality and on the
minimum ambient temperature
3 277.
Topping up engine oil
Caution
In case of any spilled engine oil,
wipe it up and dispose of it
properly.
Engine oils of different manufacturers
and brands can be mixed as long as
they comply with the required engine
oil quality and viscosity.
Select the appropriate engine oil
based on its quality and on the
minimum ambient temperature
3 277.
Additional engine oil additives
The use of additional engine oil
additives could cause damage and
invalidate the warranty.
Service and maintenance
Engine oil viscosity grades
The SAE viscosity grade gives
information of the thickness of the
engine oil.
Multigrade engine oil is indicated by
two figures, e.g. SAE 5W-30. The first
figure, followed by a W, indicates the
low temperature viscosity and the
second figure the high temperature
viscosity.
Select the appropriate viscosity grade
depending on the minimum ambient
temperature 3 277.
All of the recommended viscosity
grades are suitable for high ambient
temperatures.
Coolant and antifreeze
Use only antifreeze approved for the
vehicle. Consult a workshop.
The system is factory filled with
coolant designed for excellent
corrosion protection and frost
protection down to approx. -37 °C.
This concentration should be
maintained all year round. The use of
additional coolant additives that
