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

This also applies to safety-related functions
and systems. When using these functions and
systems, the applicable laws and regulations
must be observed.
General information
If there is no Min. and Max. mark in the filler
neck of the coolant reservoir, have the coolant
level checked, if needed, by a dealer’s service

pair shop and add coolant as needed.

Depending on the engine installation, the cool‐
ant reservoir is located on the right side or the

suitable for the vehicle. Information about suit‐
able additives is available from a dealer’s serv‐
ice center or another qualified service center or

tives can damage the engine. There is a risk of
