Introduction
Regular checks
In addition to the services, we recom-
mend that you check the following items
regularly (for example: weekly, when re-
fueling, or before any long journey):
• Engine oil level - Depending on how
your vehicle is equipped, check the en-
gine oil level using the oil level dipstick
or the control system via the multifunc-
tion steering wheel/display. Further
information about engine oil level
measurement can be found in the vehi-
cle Operator's Manual.
• Coolant level - Please refer to the Op-
erator's Manual for the correct proce-
dure to check the coolant level.
• Brake fluid level - If brake fluid has to
be added, see an authorized Mer-
cedes-Benz Light Truck Center to de-
termine the cause, e.g. leaks or worn
brake pads.
