Traveling Abroad
• Additive for the windshield washer
and headlamp cleaning system: Add
MB Concentrate "S" to a premixed
windshield washer solvent/
antifreeze which is formulated for
below freezing temperatures (see

Snow Chains
Abroad, there is a widely-spread
Use only snow chains that are tested
and recommended by Mercedes-Benz.
Your authorized Mercedes-Benz dealer
will be glad to advise you on this
subject.
Mercedes-Benz service network at your
disposal. If you plan to travel into areas
which are not listed in the index of
your dealer directory, you should
request pertinent information from your
authorized Mercedes-Benz dealer.
• Test battery: Battery capacity drops
with decreasing ambient
temperature. A well charged battery
ensures that the engine can always
be started, even at low ambient
temperatures.
Chains should only be used on the rear
wheels. Follow the manufacturer's
mounting instructions.
Winter Driving
Have your car winterized at your
authorized Mercedes-Benz dealer
before the onset of winter.
After driving a short distance, retighten
the mounted chains.
•
Tires: We recommend M + S radial
tires on all four wheels for the
winter season. Observe permissible
maximum speed for M + S radial
tires and the legal speed limit.
Snow chains should only be driven on
snow covered roads at speeds not to
exceed 30 mph (50 km/h). Remove
chains as soon as possible when driving
on roads without snow.
•
Change the engine oil if the engine
contains an oil which is not
approved for winter operation. For
viscosity (SAE class) and filling
quantity, see Capacities: Fuels,
Coolants, Lubricants etc. in Index.
Note:
For tips on driving on slippery winter
roads, refer to Index.
•
Check engine coolant anticorrosion/
antifreeze concentration.
In winter operation, the maximum
effectiveness of the acceleration slip
control is only achieved with M + S
radial tires.
When driving with snow chains, press
the snow chain switch, refer
to Index.
