What to do if …

When the message

level at next refueling.

appears while

the engine is running and at operating tem-
perature, the engine oil level has dropped
to approximately the minimum level.

When this occurs, the warning will first
come on intermittently and then stay on if
the oil level drops further.

Visually check for oil leaks. If no obvious oil
leaks are noted, drive to the nearest
service station where the engine oil should
be topped to the required level with an
approved engine oil.

For information on approved engine oils,
refer to the Factory Approved Service
Products pamphlet (USA only) or contact
an authorized Mercedes-Benz Light Truck
Center.
