ENVIRONMENTAL NOTE Environmental
pollution due to disposal in a non-envi‐
ronmentally-friendly manner
If, for operating reasons, individual mainte‐
nance work is carried out under your own
direction, the environmental protection
requirements must be observed. When dis‐
posing of service products, e.g. coolant, you
must comply with the legal requirements. This
also applies to all parts that have been in con‐
tact with operating fluids.
Dispose of empty containers, cleaning
#
cloths and care products in an environ‐
mentally responsible manner.
Observe the instructions for care prod‐
#
ucts.
When working on the vehicle, comply with all
safety regulations, such as the operating instruc‐
tions, regulations concerning hazardous materi‐
als, environmental protection measures, work
safety and accident prevention regulations.
You must secure the vehicle on jack stands of
sufficient load capacity if work is being carried
out underneath the vehicle.
Never use a jack instead of stands. The jack is
designed only to raise the vehicle for a short time
when changing a wheel. It is not suited for carry‐
ing out maintenance work under the vehicle.
Please also refer to the notes about qualified spe‐
cialist workshops (
page 21).

The scope and regularity of the inspection and
maintenance work primarily depend on the often
diverse operating conditions. Inspection and
maintenance work requires special skills that
cannot be acquired by reading these Operating
Instructions. This work should only be carried out
by trained personnel.
The vehicle service booklet describes the scope
and frequency of maintenance work and contains
additional notes on the implied warranty. You will
find information about operating fluids approved
for Mercedes-Benz and capacities under "Operat‐
ing Fluids and Capacities" (
Maintenance services must be carried out in
accordance with the instructions in the service
booklet. Not doing so could void any warranty
claims and lead to refusal of goodwill gestures
after the manufacturer has submitted a damage
report.

Service interval display function
The ASSYST PLUS service interval display on the
instrument cluster display provides information
on the remaining time or distance before the next
service due date.
You can find information about the service scope
and the service intervals in the service booklet.
When a qualified specialist workshop has per‐
formed the maintenance work, the service inter‐
val display will be reset.
Under arduous operating conditions or if the vehi‐
cle is subjected to increased loads, the ASSYST
PLUS service interval display may shorten the
service interval.
You can obtain further information concerning
the servicing of your vehicle from a qualified spe‐
cialist workshop.
