Severe operating conditions exist if

one or more of the following

circumstances occur frequently: Cold

starting, stop and go operation, e.g.

for taxis and police vehicles, trailer

operation, mountain driving, driving

on poor and sandy road surfaces,

increased air pollution, presence of

airborne sand and high dust content,

driving at high altitude and large

variations of temperature.

Under these severe operating

conditions, certain service work may

be required more frequently than the

regular service interval indicated in

Confirmations

Confirmation of service is recorded in the Service and warranty booklet. The date and mileage is completed with the stamp

and signature of the servicing workshop.

Make sure that the Service and warranty booklet is completed correctly as continuous proof of service is essential if any

warranty or goodwill claims are to be met, and is also a benefit when selling the vehicle.

Service and maintenance

Select the appropriate engine oil

based on its quality and on the

minimum ambient temperature.

Engine oil viscosity grades

Recommended fluids,

lubricants and parts

The SAE viscosity grade gives

information of the thickness of the oil.

Multigrade oil is indicated by two

figures, e.g. SAE 5W-30. The first

figure, followed by a W, indicates the

low temperature viscosity and the

second figure the high temperature

viscosity.

Select the appropriate viscosity grade

depending on the minimum ambient

temperature.

Topping up engine oil

Caution

Recommended fluids and

lubricants

Only use products that meet the

recommended specifications.

In case of any spilled oil, wipe it up

and dispose it properly.

9 Warning

Engine oils of different manufacturers

and brands can be mixed as long as

they comply with the required engine

oil quality and viscosity.

Use of engine oils for all petrol

engines with only ACEA quality is

prohibited, since it can cause engine

damage under certain operating

conditions.

Operating materials are

hazardous and could be

poisonous. Handle with care. Pay

attention to information given on

the containers.

All of the recommended viscosity

grades are suitable for high ambient

temperatures.

Coolant and antifreeze

Use only antifreeze approved for the

vehicle. Consult a workshop.

The system is factory filled with

coolant designed for excellent

corrosion protection and frost

protection down to approx. -28 °C. In

cold regions with very low

temperatures the factory filled coolant

provides frost protection down to

approx. -37 °C. This concentration

should be maintained all year round.

Engine oil

Engine oil is identified by its quality

and its viscosity. Quality is more

important than viscosity when

selecting which engine oil to use. The

oil quality ensures e.g. engine

cleanliness, wear protection and oil

aging control, whereas viscosity

grade gives information on the oil's

thickness over a temperature range.

Select the appropriate engine oil

based on its quality and on the

minimum ambient temperature.

Additional engine oil additives

The use of additional engine oil

additives could cause damage and

invalidate the warranty.

Service and maintenance

243

The use of additional coolant

additives that intend to give additional

corrosion protection or seal against

minor leaks can cause function

problems. Liability for consequences

resulting from the use of additional

coolant additives will be rejected.

Washer fluid

Use only washer fluid approved for

the vehicle to prevent damage of

wiper blades, paintwork, plastic and

rubber parts. Consult a workshop.

Brake and clutch fluid

Over time, brake fluid absorbs

moisture which will reduce braking

effectiveness. The brake fluid should

therefore be replaced at the specified

interval.

Use only brake fluid approved for the

vehicle. Consult a workshop.

AdBlue

Only use AdBlue to reduce the

nitrogen oxides in the exhaust

emission 3 131.
