The transmission fluid level does not need
to be checked. If you notice transmission
fluid loss or gear shifting malfunctions,
have an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center
check the automatic transmission.
The engine coolant is a mixture of water
and anticorrosion/ antifreeze. To check
the coolant level, the vehicle must be
parked on level ground and the engine
must be cool.
In order to avoid any possibly serious burns:
ț
Use extreme caution when opening the
hood if there are any signs of steam or
coolant leaking from the cooling system,
or if the coolant temperature gauge indi-
cates that the coolant is overheated.

authorized Mercedes-Benz Center check

Using a rag, slowly open the cap approx-
imately ½ turn to relieve excess pres-

Do not spill antifreeze on hot engine
parts. Antifreeze contains ethylene gly-
col which may burn if it comes into con-
tact with hot engine parts.
