Low Engine Coolant Level
Warning
When the symbol and message appear
while driving, then the coolant level
has dropped below the required level. If
no leaks are noticeable and the engine
temperature does not increase, continue
to drive to the nearest service station
and have coolant added to the coolant
system (see Index).
The low engine coolant level warning
should not be ignored. Extended
driving with the symbol displayed may
cause serious engine damage not
covered by the Mercedes-Benz Limited
Warranty.
In cases of major or frequent minor
coolant loss, have the cooling system
checked at your authorized Mercedes-
Benz dealer as soon as possible.
Note:
Do not drive without coolant in the
cooling system. The engine will
overheat causing major engine damage.
Monitor the coolant temperature gauge
while driving.
Warning!
Do not spill antifreeze on hot engine
parts. Antifreeze contains ethylene
glycol which may burn if it comes
into contact with hot engine parts.
You can be seriously burned.
Low Windshield and Headlamp
Washer System Fluid Level Warning
When the symbol and message appear
while the engine is running, the level of
the reservoir has dropped to approx.
of the total volume. The reservoir
should be refilled with MB Windshield
Washer Concentrate "S" and water (or
commercially available premixed
windshield washer solvent/antifreeze,
depending on ambient temperature -
see Index) at the next opportunity. The
reservoir for the windshield and
headlamp washer systems is located in
the engine compartment.
