This chapter describes all standard, country-  
specific and optional features offered with the  
series. It also describes features that are not  
necessarily available in your vehicle, e. g., due  
to the selected options or country versions.  
This also applies to safety-related functions  
and systems. When using these functions and  
systems, the applicable country provisions  
must be observed.  
Overview  
Depending on the engine installation, the cool‐  
ant reservoir is located on the right side or the  
left side of the engine compartment.  
Checking  
1. Let the engine cool.  
2. Turn the lid of the coolant reservoir slightly  
counterclockwise to allow any excess  
pressure to dissipate, then open it.  
General information  
Not all commercially available additives are  
suitable for the vehicle. Information about suit‐  
able additives is available from a dealer’s serv‐  
ice center or another qualified service center or  
repair shop.  
Safety information

WARNING  
4. The coolant level is correct if it lies be‐  
tween the minimum and maximum marks  
in the filler neck.  
With the engine hot and the cooling sys‐  
tem open, coolant can escape and lead to  
scalding. There is a risk of injury. Only open  
the cooling system with the engine cooled  
down.◀

tives can damage the engine. There is a risk of  
injury and risk of property damage. Do not al‐
