Coolant temperature
During severe operating conditions, 
e.g. stop-and-go traffic, the coolant tem-
perature may rise to approximately 248°F 
(120°C).
The engine should not be operated with 
the coolant temperature over 248°F 
(120°C). Doing so may cause serious en-
gine damage which is not covered by the 
Mercedes-Benz Limited Warranty.
Warning!
G
Driving when your engine is badly over-
heated can cause some fluids, which 
may have leaked into the engine com-
partment, to catch fire. You could be se-
riously 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 com-
ing from it.
Stop the vehicle in a safe location away from 
other traffic. Turn off the engine, get out of 
the vehicle and do not stand near the vehicle 
until the engine has cooled down.
