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

StowingtheMobilitySystem
1.Unscrew the filling hose of the sealant conj
tainer from the wheel.2.Unscrew the connection hose of the comj pressor from the sealant container.3.Connect the filling hose of the sealant conj
tainer previously connected to the tire
valve with the available connector on the
sealant container.
This prevents leftover sealant from escapj
ing from the container.4.Wrap the empty sealant container in suitaj ble material to avoid dirtying the cargoarea.5.Stow the Mobility System back in the vehijcle.
Distributingthesealant
Immediately drive approx. 5 miles/10 km to enjsure that the sealant is evenly distributed in thetire.
Do not exceed a speed of 50 mph/80 km/h. If possible, do not drive at speeds less than
12 mph/20 km/h.
Correctingthetireinflationpressure
1.Stop at a suitable location.2.Screw the connection hose of the comj pressor directly onto the tire valve stem.3.Insert the connector into the power socket
inside the vehicle.4.Correct the tire inflation pressure to
2.5 bar.'yIncrease pressure: with the ignition
turned on or the engine running, switch
on the compressor.'yTo reduce the pressure: press the butj ton on the compressor.Continuingthetrip
Do not exceed the maximum permissible
speed of 50 mph/80 km/h.
Reinitialize the Flat Tire Monitor.
Reinitialize the Tire Pressure Monitor.
Replace the nonworking tire and the sealant
container of the Mobility System promptly.
Snowchains
Fine-linksnowchains
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

in incorrect readings.
When driving with snow chains, if needed,
briefly activate M Dynamic Mode.
Maximumspeedwithsnowchains
Do not exceed a speed of 30 mph/50 km/h when using snow chains.
Changingwheels/tires Generalinformation
When tire sealants are used, an immediate
wheel change when there is a loss of tire inflaj
tion pressure in the event of a flat tire is not alj ways necessary.
If needed, the tools for changing wheels are available as accessories from a dealerss service
center or another qualified service center or rej pair shop.
Safetyinformation WARNING
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.'

that is diagonally opposite to the wheel that you wish to change.
Onaslightdownhillgradient
If you need to change a wheel on a slight downhill grade, place chocks and other suitajble objects, for instance a rock, under the
wheels of both the front and rear axles against
the rolling direction.
Preparingthevehicle
'yChange the wheel as far away as possible
from passing traffic.'yPark the vehicle on solid, non-slip and level ground.'ySwitch on the hazard warning system.'ySet the parking brake.'yEngage a gear or selector lever position P.'yAs soon as permitted by the traffic flow,have all vehicle occupants get out of the
vehicle and ensure that they remain outjside the immediate area in a safe place,
such as behind a guardrail.'yDepending on the equipment version, get tools and the emergency wheel from the
vehicle.'yIf necessary, set up a warning triangle or
portable hazard warning lamp at an approj priate distance.'yDo not place wood blocks or similar itemsunder the vehicle jack; otherwise, it cannot
reach its carrying capacity because of the
restricted height.'ySecure the vehicle additionally against rollj
ing.'yLoosen the lug bolts a half turn.

area.
The nonworking wheel cannot be stored under the cargo floor panel because of its
size.3.Check tire inflation pressure at the next opj
portunity and correct as needed.4.Reinitialize the Flat Tire Monitor.
Reset the Tire Pressure Monitor.5.Check to make sure the lug bolts are tight
with a calibrated torque wrench.6.Drive to the nearest dealerss service center
or another qualified service center or repair
shop to have the damaged tire replaced.
Emergencywheel
Generalinformation
In the event of a flat tire, the emergency wheel
can be used in place of the wheel with the dej
fective tire. The emergency wheel is only inj
tended for temporary use to allow you to get
the defective tire/wheel replaced.
Safetyinformation WARNING
The emergency wheel has particular dij
mensions. When driving with an emergency wheel, changed driving properties may occurat higher speeds, e.g., reduced lane stability
when braking, longer braking distance and changed self-steering properties in the limit
area. There is a risk of an accident. Drive modj
erately and do not exceed a speed of
50 mph/80 km/h.'
