immediately after starting the engine.
In a very cold engine the oil pressure
will rise slowly after the engine has
started. Do not speed up the engine
before pressure is registered on the
pressure gauge. If you do not see the
gauge register oil pressure, stop the
engine and have it checked.
Before Starting
At very high coolant temperatures the
engine starting time can be shortened
if the accelerator is depressed slowly at
the beginning of the starting process.
Engage parking brake and ensure
gearshift lever is in neutral (selector
lever position "P" or “N” on automatic
transmissions).

Turn the key in the steering lock to
position 0 to stop the engine.
In areas where temperatures frequently
drop below -4°F (-20°C) we
recommend that an engine block heater
be installed. Your authorized
Mercedes-Benz dealer will advise you
on this subject.
Cold Engine
The key can only be removed with the
selector lever in position “P”.
Do not depress accelerator.
Turn key in steering lock clock-wise to
the stop. Do not depress accelerator.
Release key only when the engine is

If the coolant temperature is very high
(e.g. after hard driving on mountain
roads), do not shut off the engine
immediately, but allow it to run for 1-2
minutes at increased idle speed with
selector lever in position “P” or “N”.

Richard Conrad on Apr 17, 2016. Great resource

My owner's manual has been damaged and unreadable in certain areas. This was a tremendous resource!

This cat is awesome. I love how sturdy the body is while making turns or passing through man holes. This is the type of car body I know will save my life in accidents. My other Benz a C320 saved my spouse's life before it was totaled. An inconsiderate, mindless driver who was trying to beat a red light hit my Benz. God Bless my spouse only suffered a contusion & lacerations on his left arm. If you saw my Benz uou will be amazed how little injuries my spouse suffered. My current SL500 is actually the teplacementv. fot my beloved C320. German metal is the best. Gives you security & confidence driving among crazy drivers around the world.

Just excellent that I was fortunate to find this site.
Please note that pages 35 and 37 have over-written script from other pages. This makes it difficult, but not impossible, to read those contents. Fortunately, they are not critical to my needs.

i bought a car and then discovered it didn't have the owners manual with it. not much fun having a foreign make car and not knowing how to work anything. thanks for your help.

  1. I do have one, but Very nice to have available here ! I was wondering if I should make a copy of mine just so Id have one, in case of losing it? But no need, great to have one available as you supplied. Thanks

    Would you know by chance where I could get a Service Manual, or Shop Manual for the 94 SL 600 ? Would really like one ! Thanks again, Merv
