Low Engine Coolant Level
Warning Lamp
The low engine oil level warning light
should not be ignored. Extended
driving with the light illuminated could
result in engine damage that is not
covered by the Mercedes-Benz Limited
Warranty.
Fuel Consumption Gauge
While driving, current fuel
With the key in steering lock position
consumption is indicated in miles per
gallon (mpg), or in Canada liters per
100 kilometers (1/100 km).
2,
the oil level warning lamp comes on
and should go out when the engine is
running.
In addition to the warning lamp, the
engine oil level should be periodically
checked with the dipstick, for example
during a fuel stop, or before a long trip
(see Index).
With the engine switched off, the
needle reads "0".
If the warning lamp comes on with the
engine running and at operating
temperature, the engine oil level has
dropped to approximately the minimum
mark on the dipstick.
Due to system design, minimum
consumption is indicated at engine idle
speed.
When this occurs, the warning lamp
will first come on intermittently and
then stay on if the oil level drops
further.
Fuel Reserve Warning Lamps
With the key in steering lock position
2, the fuel reserve warning lamps come
on and should go out when the engine
is running.
If no oil leaks are noted and there is no
loss in engine oil pressure, continue to
drive to the nearest service station
where the engine oil should be topped
to the "full" mark on the dipstick with
an approved oil.
If the warning lamps do not go out
after starting the engine or if they come
on while driving, it indicates that the
fuel level is down to the reserve
quantity of approx. 3.3 gal (12.5 liters).
