repair damaged tires, but have them rejplaced.'

Although so-called all-season M+S tires projvide better winter traction than summer tires,they do not provide the same level of performj
ance as winter tires.
Maximum
speed
of
winter
tires If the maximum speed of the vehicle is higher
than the permissible speed for the winter tires, then attach a corresponding information label/
sticker in the field of view. The label is available from a dealerss service center or another qualij
fied service center or repair shop.
With mounted winter tires, observe and adhere
to the permissible maximum speed.
Run-flat
tires
If you are already using run-flat tires, for your
own safety you should replace them only with the same kind. No spare tire is available in the
case of a flat tire. Further information is availaj
ble from a dealerss service center or another
qualified service center or repair shop.
Rotating
wheels
between
axles Different wear patterns can occur on the frontand rear axles depending on individual driving
conditions. The tires can be rotated between
the axles to achieve even wear. Further inforj mation is available from a dealerss service cenjter or another qualified service center or repair
shop. After rotating, check the tire pressure
and correct, if needed.
Rotating the tires between the axes is not perj
missible on vehicles with different tire sizes or rim sizes on the front and rear axles.
Storage
Store wheels and tires in a cool, dry and dark place.
Always protect tires against all contact with oil,
grease and fuels.
Do not exceed the maximum tire inflation presj sure indicated on the side wall of the tire.Run-flat
tires
Concept
Run-flat tires permit continued driving under
restricted conditions even in the event of a complete loss of tire inflation pressure.
General
information
The wheels consist of tires that are self-supj porting, to a limited degree, and possibly spej
cial rims.
The support of the sidewall allows the tire to
remain drivable to a restricted degree in the
event of a tire inflation pressure loss.
Follow the instructions for continued driving
with a flat tire.
Label
RSC label on the tire sidewall.
Changing
run-flat
tires For your own safety, only use run-flat tires. No
spare tire is available in the case of a flat tire.
A dealerss service center will be glad to answeradditional questions at any time.

from passing traffic and on solid ground.'ySwitch on the hazard warning system.Seite 214MobilityWheels

'ySecure the vehicle against rolling away bysetting the parking brake.'yHave all vehicle occupants get out of thevehicle and ensure that they remain outjside the immediate area in a safe place,
such as behind a guardrail.'yIf necessary, set up a warning triangle or
portable hazard warning light at a sufficient
distance.'yChange wheels only on a flat, solid and slip-resistant surface. On soft or slippery
ground, for example snow, ice, tiles, etc.,
the vehicle or the vehicle jack may slip
away sideways.'yDo not place wood blocks or similar items under the vehicle jack; otherwise, it cannot
reach its carrying capacity because of the
restricted height.'yIf the vehicle is raised, do not lie under the vehicle and do not start the engine, or else
there is a danger to life.
Mobility
System
Concept
With the Mobility System, minor tire damage can be sealed temporarily to enable continued
travel. To accomplish this, sealant is pumped
into the tires, which seals the damage from the inside.
The compressor can be used to check the tire inflation pressure.
General
information
'yFollow the instructions on using the Mobij lity System found on the compressor and
sealant container.'yUse of the Mobility System may be ineffecj
tive if the tire puncture measures approx.
1/8 inches/4 mm or more.'yContact a dealerss service center or anj other qualified service center or repair
shop if the tire cannot be made drivable.'yIf possible, do not remove foreign bodies that have penetrated the tire.'yPull the speed limit sticker off the sealant
container and apply it to the steering
wheel.'yThe use of a sealant can damage the TPM wheel electronics. In this case, have theelectronics checked and replaced at the
next opportunity.
Storage
The Mobility System is located under thecargo floor panel.

DANGER
If the exhaust pipe is blocked or ventilaj
tion is insufficient, harmful exhaust gases can
enter into the vehicle. The exhaust gases conj tain pollutants which are colorless and odorj
less. In enclosed areas, exhaust gases can also
accumulate outside of the vehicle. There is
danger to life. Keep the exhaust pipe free and
ensure sufficient ventilation.'

Snow
chains
Fine-link
snow
chains
The manufacturer of your vehicle recommends use of fine-link snow chains. Certain types of
fine-link snow chains have been tested by the
manufacturer of the vehicle and recommended as road-safe and suitable.
Information regarding suitable snow chains is
available from a dealerss service center or anj other qualified service center or repair shop.
Use WARNING
With the mounting of snow chains on unj
suitable tires, the snow chains can come into
contact with vehicle parts. There is a risk of acj
cidents or risk of property damage. Only mount
snow chains on tires that are designated by
their manufacturer as suitable for the use of
snow chains.'

Safety
informationWARNING
The vehicle jack is provided by the vehij
cle manufacturer for changing wheels in the event of a flat tire. The vehicle jack is not dej
signed for frequent use, for instance for changj
ing from summer to winter tires. Using the vej hicle jack frequently may cause it to jam or
become damaged. There is a risk of injury and
risk of damage to property. Only use the vehij cle jack to change an emergency wheel or aspare tire in the event of a flat tire.'
