The radiator fluid must be topped up periodically, especially when a message on the dashboard indicates that the engine is overheating. Topping up is simple and can be done by anyone; there is no need to consult a mechanic, provided you know exactly where the reservoir for this fluid is located.

The video provided shows its exact position: the radiator fluid reservoir in the Mercedes W246 is located inside the engine bay, on the left side. Once located, simply unscrew the cap (strictly when the engine is cold) to top up the fluid level.
