Warning!

G

Driving when your engine is overheated can

cause some fluids which may have leaked

into the engine compartment to catch fire.

You could be seriously burned.

Steam from an overheated engine can cause

serious burns and can occur just by opening

the hood. Stay away from the engine if you

see or hear steam coming from it.

Turn off the engine, get out of the vehicle

and do not stand near the vehicle until the

engine has cooled down.

!

The engine should not be operated with the

coolant temperature above 248°F (120°C).
Doing so may cause serious engine damage
which is not covered by the Mercedes-Benz
Limited Warranty.
