best maintenance for a merc

best maintainance for Merc
how to maintain a mercedes?
i am a newbie and i dont know how to mainttain a merc or even a car...

what do i have to do besides following the scheduled service?
what does the service a and B do?
only change of oil,brake fluids and stuff right?

but what about engine tune-up, changing brake pads and etc.,..?
its not covered in the service a and b right?
i have to do this myself?
if yes when should i do engine tune-up every 5000 miles?

any help will be much appreciated

Read the service booklet that came with you vehicle. It has all the schedules and service intervals/items in it.

Drive it and enjoy!

The computer tells you how many miles the "A" service - around 10,000 miles.

If you have Michelin Sport tires disregard the inflation ## on the gas filler door. Use 35-37 lbs front and 34-36 in back.
