Maintenance and servicing

Operation
You will find information about the mainte-
nance points on (e page 158).
Mechanical elements and the lubricants
used for them must be carefully matched.
For this reason, only tested and approved
brands should be used. Please contact
your Sprinter Dealer to obtain the neces-
sary information. No lubricant additives
should be used.
The use of such additives could affect your
New Vehicle Limited Warranty rights. Infor-
mation is available from any authorized
Sprinter Dealer.
For specifications of engine oils, coolant
and brake fluid, see "Service products and
capacities" (
e page 279) and contact your
authorized Sprinter Dealer.
Observe the information on spare parts in
the "Technical data" section (
e page 278).
ASSYST, the A
ctive Service System, in-
forms you when the next service is due.
A service that is due is displayed about a
month in advance. A message is then dis-
played while the vehicle is in motion or the
ignition is switched on.
i Periods when the battery is disconnected
will not be recorded by ASSYST. To make sure
that you have the vehicle serviced at the correct
time, you should therefore subtract periods
when the battery is disconnected from the days
shown.
The service indicator does not provide informa-
tion about the engine oil level. The service indica-
tor should not, therefore, be confused with
the 5 engine oil level display.
Maintenance and servicing
G Warning
Before carrying out maintenance operations
and repairs, please make sure that you read
the relevant sections of the technical docu-
mentation, such as:
O Operating Instructions and workshop in-
formation
Familiarize yourself in advance in particular
with legal requirements, such as:
O safety at work and accident prevention
regulations.
You may otherwise fail to recognize dangers
and could injure yourself or others.
When working underneath the vehicle, you
must place the vehicle on stands with suffi-
cient load-bearing capacity.
Never use the vehicle jack instead. There is a
risk that the vehicle jack could give way and
the vehicle could drop, seriously injuring you
or others, or causing damage to property.
The jack is only designed to raise the vehicle
for a short time.
Always have the maintenance work carried
out and checked at an authorized Sprinter
Dealer which has the necessary specialist
knowledge and tools to carry out the work re-
quired. In particular, work relevant to safety
or on safety-related systems must be carried
out at an authorized Sprinter Dealer.
Service products
G Warning
If handled incorrectly, service products can
constitute a health risk for people and an en-
vironmental hazard.
Always observe relevant guidelines for han-
dling, storing and disposing of service prod-
ucts.
