Before performing maintenance work, read through the technical sheet, such as Operation manual and workshop information. Always have the maintenance work performed within the intended intervals. Otherwise, it may cause malfunctions or faults on the safety systems. Thus, it may cause an accident and cause injury to yourself or to others.
Vehicle's Maintenance Categories
The scope and frequency of maintenance works are established, first, by the different conditions of vehicle usage.
The variable maintenance system at Mercedes-Benz complies with this requirements, enabling the choice of maintenance groups with different maintenance intervals.
Maintenance intervals depend on the use of the vehicle.
For that reason, asses the conditions to which your vehicle will be predominantly submitted to in a critical way. Then, consciously choose, together with your Mercedes-Benz Dealer, the required maintenance category.
Heavy duty
- Use of the vehicle under extreme conditions, operating in the maximum effort or load limits.
Examples:
- Vehicles that drive predominantly in large cities and roads with intense traffic.
- Traffic with frequent “stop and go”.
- Vehicles used in regular services of urban delivery.
Vehicles for special services (concrete mixers, dump trucks, dump compactors, vehicle with total traction). For these vehicles, the maintenance per hour of service or fuel consumption is recommended.
- Constant travels in unpaved roads or in poor condition.
- Traffic in extremely short distances with high percentage of engine operation in idle speed or excessive actuation of the engine start.
- Use in construction work sites without road traffic, in extremely difficult terrains or with heavy load.
Mixed Service
- Regional traffic with few highways.
Road Service
- Vehicles that predominantly drive on highways or paved roads in good conditions, with average speed high and few intermediate stops.
If, due to the vehicle sale or due to the changes in the operation conditions, the maintenance category has to be changed, this change must be made with the participation of a Mercedes-Benz Dealer and communicated to Mercedes-Benz do Brasil Ltda.
