| Risk of burn injuries , suffocation and poisoning when working on the exhaust system and the components connected to it. Risk of suffocation and risk of poisoning caused by inhalation of gaseous and solid components of the exhaust. Risk of poisoning caused by skin contact with solid components of the exhaust. | Wear protective clothing and safety glasses. Use the extraction system. Move people out of the danger zone. | AS49.00-Z-0001-01A | |
| Risk of accident from vehicle starting off by itself when engine running. Risk of injury (bruises and burns) resulting from working on the engine while it is being started or when it is running. | Secure vehicle to prevent it from starting off by itself. Wear closed and snug-fitting work clothes. Do not touch hot or rotating parts. | AS00.00-Z-0005-01A | |
| Risk of injury . Skin or eye injuries may result when handling hot or glowing objects. | Wear protective gloves, protective clothing and safety glasses, if necessary. | AS00.00-Z-0002-01A | |
| Risk of injury to skin and eyes due to handling of engine oil. Risk of poisoning caused by swallowing engine oil | Wear protective gloves, protective clothing and safety glasses. Do not fill engine oil into beverage containers. |

| 3 | Remove lower engine compartment lining. | Engine 139 in model 118, 177, 247.7 | AR61.20-P-1105MFR |
| Check | |||
| 4 | Check outside of engine for oil loss. | ||
| Notes on evaluating leakages | In case of oil loss: ↓ determine cause and correct. |
AH00.00-P-0011-01KOA | |
| 5 | Perform engine oil and oil filter change. | If ≥ 1000 km has been driven since last engine oil change. | |
Before the engine oil consumption measuring drive, the engine oil needs to be changed. Otherwise, false measurements may occur, e.g as a result of fuel in the engine oil. |

| Check | |||
| 14 | Perform engine oil consumption measuring drive. | Measurement distance of measuring drive by customer is 1, 000 km. |
|
| 15 | Drain engine oil. | ||
Perform new measurement at the location of the first oil measurement with the same container. Measurement errors occur otherwise. |
AP18.00-P-0101MFC | ||
| 16 | Place drained engine oil with container on a scale and weigh. | ||
| 17 | Calculate weight difference by subtracting the weight of the engine oil after the measuring drive from the weight of the engine oil before the measuring drive and note down. | ||
| 18 | Calculate measurement distance by subtracting the kilometer reading before the measuring drive from the kilometer reading after the measuring drive and note down. | ||
| 19 | Determine oil consumption. | (difference in weight in kg x 1000) divided by (measurement distance in km x oil density in kg/l) Example: (1.2 kg x 1000) divided by (1234 km x 0.85 kg/l) = 1.14 l oil consumption If oil consumption > 0.8 l, ↓ determine cause and correct. If oil consumption ≤ 0.8 l, ↓ Correct engine oil level after filling in the drained engine oil. |
