Only use approved engine oils and oil
filters required for vehicles with
Maintenance System (U.S. vehicles) or
FSS PLUS (Canada vehicles). For a list-
ing of approved engine oils and oil fil-
ters, refer to the Factory Approved

hicle literature portfolio, or contact an
authorized Mercedes-Benz Light Truck

In addition, check the oil filler cap for
important information pertaining to the
engine oil needing to meet a specific

ed on the oil filler cap, only use an en-
gine oil from the list of approved engine
oils in the Factory Approved Service
Products pamphlet that meets the
specification indicated on the oil filler
cap.
Using engine oils and oil filters of spec-
ification other than those expressly re-
quired for the Maintenance System
(U.S. vehicles) or FSS PLUS (Canada
vehicles), or changing of oil and oil filter
at change intervals longer than those
called for by the Maintenance System
(U.S. vehicles) or FSS PLUS (Canada
vehicles) will result in engine damage
not covered by the Mercedes-Benz
Limited Warranty.
