Important safety notes

Service products include the following:

 - fuels (e.g. gasoline, diesel)
 - additives for exhaust gas aftertreatment (DEF)
 - lubricants (e.g. engine oil, transmission oil)
 - coolant
 - brake fluid
 - windshield washer fluid

Vehicle components and their respective lubricants must match. You should therefore only use products that have been tested and approved by Mercedes-Benz.

Information on tested and approved products can be obtained at a Mercedes-Benz Center or on the Internet at http:// www.mbusa.com (USA only).

For health reasons, you should prevent service fluids from coming into direct contact with your skin or clothing.

If a service fluid is swallowed, contact a physician immediately.
