Notes on the engine radiator
Even seemingly small changes to the vehicle,
such as attaching a radiator grille for winter
operation, are not permitted. Do not cover the
radiator. Do not use thermal mats, insect pro-
tection covers or anything similar.
Doing so can cause the vehicle diagnostic sys-
tem to display inaccurate values. In some
countries, the recording of engine diagnosis
data is a legal requirement, and must always
be verifiable and accurate.

Environmental note
Daimler Truck AG offers recycled recondi-
tioned components and parts with the same
quality as new parts. The same entitlement
from the implied warranty is valid as for new
parts.
If you use parts, tyres or wheels which have
not been approved by Mercedes-Benz, the
operating safety of the vehicle may be
impaired. This could lead to malfunctions in
safety-relevant systems, e.g. the brake sys-
tem. Only use genuine Mercedes-Benz parts or
parts of a similar quality. Only use tyres and
wheels that have been specifically approved
for your vehicle.
