Do not remove pressure cap on coolant
reservoir if coolant temperature is
above 158°F (70°C). Allow engine to
cool down before removing cap. The
coolant reservoir contains hot fluid and
is under pressure.
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 Light
Truck Center check the automatic trans-
mission.

parts. Antifreeze contains ethylene gly-
col which may burn if it comes into con-
tact with hot engine parts.

Using a rag, turn cap 1 slowly approx-
imately one half turn counterclockwise
to release any excess pressure.

The coolant expansion tank is located on
the driver’s side of the engine compart-
ment.
Warning!
In order to avoid potentially 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.
