Intr oduction
Under normal circumstances the driven distance between ser-
vices is an average of approximately 12 000 miles. Under
most circumstances, A and B-services will be called for by FSS
alternatively, i.e. A will follow B which will be followed by an
A-service.
We want you to enjoy your Mercedes-Benz automobile. Vehi-
cle safety and operational reliability are two very important
factors and to maintain them, a certain amount of service and
maintenance is necessary. The Mercedes-Benz Flexible Ser-
vice System calls for all the necessary maintenance required
for your engine.
Exception: A B-service will be followed by another B-service, if
the FSS calculates an oil change interval of 14 000 miles or
more.
We continuously strive to improve our product, and ask for
your understanding that we reserve the right to make changes
in the required periodic maintenance work which is required
for our vehicles.
Following each A or B-service your Mercedes-Benz Center will
reset the FSS counter. The next service is indicated in the
instrument cluster (see chapter “Flexible Service System” in
your Operator’s Manual).
The vehicle comes equipped with the Flexible Service System
(FSS) which evaluates engine temperature, oil level, vehicle
speed, engine speed, distance driven and the time elapsed
since your last service. It determines when your vehicle needs
service and alerts you well in advance. The next necessary
FSS service is indicated in the instrument cluster.
Required service work which is not calculated by the FSS is
listed in the section “Additional Work to be Performed” (see
page 26).
Wear items such as, but not limited to, engine belts, brake
discs, brake pads, brake pad wear sensors, clutch discs and
clutch pressure plates are not covered by the maintenance
commitment.
There are two types of scheduled services for your vehicle, a
(“minor” =) A-service, and a (“major” =) B-service.
A detailed listing of maintenance procedures performed are
contained in this booklet, starting on page 22.
