This message will only be displayed if the engine is at
operational temperature.
Do not overfill the engine.
Excessive oil must be siphoned or drained off. It could
cause damage to the engine and catalytic converter not
covered by the Mercedes-Benz Limited Warranty.
The “PERF. SERV. ON TIME” message will be displayed
if a proper oil level check cannot be performed. The
engine oil level check can be repeated after a short
while.
Perform the engine oil level check with the dipstick, if it
cannot completed via the multifunction display.
See “Checking engine oil level”, on page 304.
In this case we recommend that you have the system
checked at a Mercedes-Benz Light Truck Center.

See malfunction and warning messages on page 272
and page 282 if an engine oil level indicator appears on
the multifunction display when the engine is running.
The engine oil level cannot be checked while the engine
is running. The “ENGINE OIL LEVEL – NOT WHEN
ENGINE ON” message will appear.
