Important safety notes

Service products include the following:

  • fuels (e.g. gasoline, diesel)
  • lubricants (e.g. engine oil, transmission oil)
  • coolant

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