When noticing fluid loss or gear
shifting malfunctions, we recommend
to have your authorized Mercedes-
Benz dealer check the transmission
fluid level.
The level of the transmission fluid is
dependent upon its temperature. Two
sets of maximum and mini-mum fluid
level marks on the dipstick are
applicable references only if the
transmission fluid has either reached its
normal operating temperature of 176°F
(80°C), or its temperature is 86°F
(30°C).
The transmission fluid level should
only be checked with the engine
idling, parking brake engaged and
selector lever in position "P". The
vehicle must be parked on level
ground.
Important!
The fluid level must not exceed the
dipstick maximum mark. Drain or
siphon excess fluid, if required.
Then push dipstick all the way in and
swing locking lever downward (3).
Prior to the check, allow engine to idle
for approx. 1 to 2 minutes.
Measure fluid level with the dipstick
completely inserted and the locking
lever released (1).

Extreme cleanliness must be observed!
To wipe the dipstick, use a clean, lint-
free cloth.
Damage to transmission caused by
contamination of transmission fluid or
overfilling of transmission may result
in serious transmission damage which
is not covered by the Mercedes-Benz
Limited Warranty.

To fill the transmission with fluid, pour
it through a fine-mesh filter into the
dipstick opening. Even the slightest
impurity may cause operational
troubles.
Regular automatic transmission fluid
level checks are not required. For this
reason the dipstick opening is sealed.
