Check
Engine Oil
At Next Refueling
When the message Check Engine Oil At
Next Refueling appears while the engine
is running and at operating temperature,
the engine oil level has dropped to approx-
imately the minimum level.
When this occurs, the warning will first
come on intermittently and then stay on if
the oil level drops further.
Visually check for oil leaks. If no obvious oil
leaks are noted, continue to drive to the
nearest service station where the engine
oil should be topped to the required level
with an approved oil specified in the Facto-
ry Approved Service Products pamphlet.
For information on approved engine oils,
refer to the Factory Approved Service
Products pamphlet (USA only) or contact
an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center.
Possible cause/consequence
The engine oil level has dropped to approx-
imately the minimum level.
!
The engine oil level warnings should not be
ignored. Extended driving with the symbol dis-
played could result in serious engine damage
that is not covered by the Mercedes-Benz Limit-
ed Warranty.
Possible solution
Check the engine oil level ( page 327) and
add engine oil as required ( page 328).
If you must add engine oil frequently, have
the engine checked for possible leaks.
