Removal and installation of the EZL/AKR trimming plug connector - ra15lh1042153x(2153)

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 42 other vehicles, including the 1999 Mercedes-Benz S600, 1999 Mercedes-Benz S500, 1999 Mercedes-Benz S420, 1999 Mercedes-Benz S320, and 1999 Mercedes-Benz CL600. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

  2. Adapting ignition point with EZL/AKR trimming plug connector (R16/2) to available fuel 

    The ignition is set for unleaded premium fuel with an octane number of RON 95.

    If regular fuel, for example with an octane rating

    of RON 91 is used, a suitable EZL/AKR trimming plug connector (R16/2) must be fitted (see table).

    IMPORTANT If regular fuel is used, the ignition is retarded by the anti-knock control. This increases the overall temperature level of the engine.

    It is therefore urgently recommended to use regular fuel only if no unleaded premium or premium plus fuel is available in exceptional circumstances (see also Owner's Manual).

    Speeds in excess of 200 km/h should be avoided in these cases.
