Important safety notes
G
WARNING
If you manipulate, bridge or replace a faulty
fuse with a fuse of a higher amperage, the
electric cables could be overloaded. This may result in a fire. There is a risk of an accident
and injury.
Always replace faulty fuses with specified new fuses of the correct amperage.
Blown fuses must be replaced with fuses of the same rating, which you can recognise by the
colour and fuse rating. The fuse ratings are listed
in the fuse allocation chart.
The fuse allocation chart is on the fuse box in the luggage compartment (Y page 260).
If the newly inserted fuse also blows, have the
cause traced and rectified at a qualified special-
ist workshop, e.g. a Mercedes-Benz Service
Centre.
! Only use fuses that have been approved for
Mercedes-Benz vehicles and which have the
correct fuse rating for the system concerned.
Otherwise, components or systems could be
damaged.
! Make sure that no moisture can enter the
fuse box when the cover is open.
! When closing the cover, make sure that it is
lying correctly on the fuse box. Moisture seep-
ing in or dirt could otherwise impair the oper- ation of the fuses.
The fuses in your vehicle disconnect faulty cir-
cuits. If a fuse blows, all the components on the circuit and their functions will fail. Before replacing a fuse
X Switch off the engine.

WARNING
If wheels and tyres of the wrong size are used, the wheel brakes or suspension components
may be damaged. There is a risk of an acci-
dent.
Always replace wheels and tyres with those
that fulfil the specifications of the original
part.
When replacing wheels, make sure to fit the
correct:
R designation
R type
When replacing tyres, make sure to fit the
correct:
R designation
R manufacturer
R type G
WARNING
A flat tyre severely impairs the driving, steer-
ing and braking characteristics of the vehicle.
There is a risk of accident.
Tyres without run-flat characteristics:
R do not drive with a flat tyre.
R immediately replace the flat tyre with your
emergency spare wheel or spare wheel, or
consult a qualified specialist workshop.
Tyres with run-flat characteristics:
R pay attention to the information and warn-
ing notices on MOExtended tyres (tyres
with run-flat characteristics).
Accessories that are not approved for your vehi-
cle by Mercedes-Benz or are not being used cor- rectly can impair the operating safety.
Before purchasing and using non-approved
accessories, visit a qualified specialist work-
shop and enquire about:
R suitability
R legal stipulations
R factory recommendations Information on the sizes and types of wheels and
tyres for your vehicle can be found under
"Wheel/tyre combinations" (Y page 272).
Information on tyre pressure can be found:
R in the tyre pressure table in the fuel filler flap
(Y page 118)
R in the "Tyre pressure" section
Modification work on the brake system and
wheels is not permitted. The use of spacers or
brake dust shields is not permitted. This inva-
lidates the general operating permit for the vehi- cle.
i Further information on wheels and tyres can
be obtained at any qualified specialist work-
shop. Operation
Information on driving
Check the tyre pressures when the vehicle is
heavily laden and adjust prior to a trip.
While driving, pay attention to vibrations, noises
and unusual handling characteristics, e.g. pull-
ing to one side. This may indicate that the
wheels or tyres are damaged. If you suspect that a tyre is defective, reduce your speed immedi-
ately. Stop the vehicle as soon as possible to
check the wheels and tyres for damage. Hidden
tyre damage could also be causing the unusual
handling characteristics. If you find no signs of
damage, have the tyres and wheels checked at a qualified specialist workshop.
When parking your vehicle, make sure not to
squash the tyre sidewalls. If this cannot be avoi- ded, drive slowly over obstacles, e.g. kerbs, and
only at an obtuse angle. You could otherwise
damage the wheel rims and tyres. Notes on high performance tyres
G
WARNING
Due to the special tyre tread in combination
with the optimised rubber compound, there is an increased risk of aquaplaning and skidding
on a damp or wet road surface. Tyre grip is
also noticeably reduced at low outside tem-
peratures and low tyre operating tempera-
tures. There is a risk of an accident. Operation

Page 265 of 289

Turn on ESP
®
and adapt your driving style
accordingly. When the outside temperature
falls below 10 †, use M+S tyres.
i Different driving styles may lead to higher
levels of tyre wear, meaning the tyres may
wear down to the minimum tyre tread depth
after less mileage. Regular checking of wheels and tyres
G
WARNING
Damaged tyres can cause tyre inflation pres-
sure loss. As a result, you could lose control of your vehicle. There is a risk of accident.
Check the tyres regularly for signs of damageand replace any damaged tyres immediately.
Check wheels and tyres for damage at least
once a month. Check wheels and tyres after
driving off-road or on rough roads. Damaged
wheels can cause a loss of tyre pressure. Pay
particular attention to damage such as:
R cuts in the tyres
R punctures
R tears in the tyres
R bulges on the tyres
R deformation or severe corrosion on wheels
Regularly check the tyre tread depth and the
condition of the tread across the whole width of
the tyre (Y page 262). If necessary, turn the
front wheels to full lock in order to inspect the
inner side of the tyre surface.
All wheels must have a valve cap to protect the
valve against dirt and moisture. Do not fit any-
thing onto the valve other than the standard
valve cap or other valve caps approved for your vehicle by Mercedes-Benz. Do not fit any other
valve caps or systems, e.g. tyre pressure moni-
toring systems.
Regularly check the pressure of all the tyres,
particularly prior to long trips. Adjust the tyre
pressure as necessary (Y page 264).
Observe the notes on the emergency spare
wheel (Y page 273). The service life of tyres depends on various fac-
tors, including the following:
R driving style
R tyre pressure
R mileage Notes on the tyre tread
G
WARNING
Insufficient tyre tread will reduce tyre trac-
tion. The tyre is no longer able to dissipate
water. This means that on wet road surfaces, the risk of aquaplaning increases, in particularwhere speed is not adapted to suit the driving
conditions. There is a risk of accident.
If the tyre pressure is too high or too low, tyres may exhibit different levels of wear at differ-
ent locations on the tyre tread. Thus, you
should regularly check the tread depth and
the condition of the tread across the entire
width of all tyres.
Minimum tyre tread depth for:
R summer tyres: 3 mm
R M+S tyres: 4 mm
For safety reasons, replace the tyres before
the legally prescribed limit for the minimum
tyre tread depth is reached. Selecting, fitting and replacing tyres
G
WARNING
Exceeding the stated tyre load-bearing capa-
city and the approved maximum speed could
lead to tyre damage or the tyre bursting. There is a risk of accident.
Therefore, only use tyre types and sizes
approved for your vehicle model. Observe the
tyre load rating and speed rating required for your vehicle.
Pay special attention to country-specific
requirements for tyre approval. These require-
ments can stipulate a specific tyre type for your
vehicle. Furthermore, the use of certain tyre
types in certain regions and areas of operation
can be highly beneficial. You can find further 262

information regarding tyres at specialist tyre
retailers, at qualified specialist workshops or at any Mercedes-Benz Service Centre.
R Only fit tyres and wheels of the same type and
make.
Exception: it is permissible to fit a different
type or make in the event of a flat tyre.
R Only fit tyres of the correct size onto the
wheels.
R Run in new tyres at moderate speeds for the
first 100 km. They only reach their full per-
formance after this distance.
R Do not drive with tyres which have too little
tread depth. This otherwise significantly
reduces the traction on wet roads (aquaplan-
ing).
R Replace the tyres after six years at the latest,
regardless of wear.
Observe the notes on the emergency spare
wheel (Y page 273). Winter operation
General notes
Have your vehicle winterproofed at a qualified
specialist workshop at the onset of winter.
Observe the notes in the "Changing a wheel"
section (Y page 267). Driving with summer tyres
At temperatures below +7 †, summer tyres lose
elasticity and therefore traction and braking
power. Change the tyres on your vehicle to
M+S tyres. Using summer tyres at very cold
temperatures could cause tears to form,
thereby damaging the tyres permanently.
Mercedes-Benz cannot accept responsibility for
this type of damage. G
WARNING
Damaged tyres can cause tyre inflation pres-
sure loss. As a result, you could lose control of your vehicle. There is a risk of accident.
Check the tyres regularly for signs of damageand replace any damaged tyres immediately. M+S tyres
G
WARNING
M+S tyres with a tyre tread depth of less than 4 mm are not suitable for use in winter as they
do not provide sufficient traction. There is a
risk of accident.
M+S tyres with a tread depth of less than
4 mm must be replaced.
At temperatures below +7 †, use winter tyres or all-season tyres. Both types of tyre are identified
by the M+S marking.
Only winter tyres bearing the isnowflake
symbol in addition to the M+S marking provide
the best possible grip in wintry road conditions. Only these tyres will allow driving safety sys-
tems such as ABS and ESP ®
to function opti-
mally in winter. These tyres have been devel-
oped specifically for driving in snow.
Use M+S tyres of the same make and tread on all
wheels to maintain safe handling characteris-
tics.
Always observe the maximum permissible
speed specified for the M+S tyres you have fit-
ted.
If you fit M+S tyre sthat have a lower maximum
permissible speed than that of the vehicle, affix
an appropriate warning label in the driver's field
of vision. This can be obtained at a qualified
specialist workshop.
Under these circumstances, you should also
restrict the maximum design speed of the vehi- cle using permanent SPEEDTRONIC so that it
does not exceed the maximum permissible
speed for the M+S tyres (Y page 130).
When you have fitted the M+S tyres:
X Check the tyre pressures (Y page 264).
X Restart the tyre pressure monitor
(Y page 267).
Information on driving with an emergency spare
wheel (Y page 273). Snow chains
G
WARNING
If you have fitted snow chains to the front
wheels, they may scrape against the vehicle
body or chassis components. This could Winter operation
263Wheels and tyres
Z

Page 267 of 289

cause damage to the vehicle or the tyres.
There is a risk of an accident.
To avoid hazardous situations:
R never fit snow chains on the front wheels
R fit snow chains to the rear wheels in pairs.
For safety reasons, Mercedes-Benz recom-
mends that you only use snow chains that have been specifically approved for your vehicle by
Mercedes-Benz, or that are of a corresponding
standard of quality. For more information,
please contact a qualified specialist workshop.
If you intend to fit snow chains, please bear the
following points in mind:
R snow chains cannot be fitted to all wheel-tyre
combinations. Permissible wheel-tyre combi-
nations (Y page 272).
R only use snow chains if the road surface is
completely snow-covered. Remove the snow
chains as soon as possible when you come to
a road that is not snow-covered.
R local regulations may restrict the use of snow
chains. Observe the appropriate regulations if you wish to fit snow chains.
R do not exceed the maximum permissible
speed of 50 km/h.
When pulling away with snow chains fitted, you can deactivate ESP ®
(Y page 58). This way you
can allow the wheels to spin in a controlled
manner, achieving increased driving force (cut-
ting action).
Information about driving with an emergency
spare wheel (Y page 273). Tyre pressure
Tyre pressure specifications
G
WARNING
Underinflated or overinflated tyres pose the
following risks:
R the tyres may burst, especially as the load
and vehicle speed increase.
R the tyres may wear excessively and/or
unevenly, which may greatly impair tyre
traction.
R the driving characteristics, as well as steer-
ing and braking, may be greatly impaired. There is a risk of an accident.
Observe the recommended tyre pressure and
check the tyre pressure of all the tyres includ-
ing the spare wheel:
R at least every two weeks
R when the load changes
R before embarking on a longer journey
R for changed operating conditions, e.g. off-
road driving
If necessary, correct the tyre pressure. G
WARNING
If you fit unsuitable accessories onto tyre
valves, the tyre valves may be overloaded and malfunction, which can cause tyre pressure
loss. Due to their design, retrofitted tyre pres-
sure monitors keep the tyre valve open. This
can also result in tyre pressure loss. There is a risk of accident.
Only screw standard valve caps or valve caps
specifically provided by Mercedes-Benz for
your vehicle onto the tyre valve. G
WARNING
If the tyre pressure drops repeatedly, the
wheel, valve or tyre may be damaged. Tyre
pressure that is too low may result in a tyre
blow-out. There is a risk of accident.
R Check the tyre for foreign objects.
R Check whether the wheel is losing air or the
valve is leaking.
If you are unable to rectify the damage, con-
tact a qualified specialist workshop. H
Environmental note
Check the tyre pressure regularly, at least
every 14 days.
The recommended tyre pressures for various
operating conditions can be found in the tyre
pressure table on the fuel filler flap
(Y page 118).
Operation with an emergency spare wheel:
information on operation with an emergency
spare wheel can be found in the general notes in 264
Tyre pressureWheels and tyres

Page 268 of 289

the "Emergency spare wheel" section
(Y page 273).
Additionally, the tyre pressure table may also
state tyre pressures for different load condi-
tions. These are defined in the table as different numbers of passengers and amounts of lug-
gage. The actual number of seats may vary; for
more information, please refer to the vehicle's
registration documents.
If tyre sizes are not specified, the tyre pressures stated on the tyre pressure table apply for all
tyres approved for this vehicle. If a tyre size precedes a tyre pressure, the fol-
lowing tyre pressure information is only valid for that tyre size.
Use a suitable pressure gauge to check the tyre
pressure. The outer appearance of a tyre does
not permit any reliable conclusion about the tyre
pressure. You can also check the tyre pressure
using the on-board computer.
If possible, only correct tyre pressures when the
tyres are cold.
The tyres are cold:
R if the vehicle has been parked with the tyres
out of direct sunlight for at least three hours
and
R if the vehicle has not been driven further than
1.6 km
Depending on the ambient temperature, the
vehicle speed and the load on the tyres, the tyre temperature and thus the tyre pressure changes by approximately 10 kPa (0.1 bar/1.5 ps i) per
10 †. Take this into account when checking the
pressure of warm tyres. Only correct the tyre pressure if it is too low for the current operating
conditions.
Driving with tyre pressure that is too high or too
low can:
R shorten the service life of the tyres
R cause increased tyre damage
R have a negative effect on handling character-
istics and thus driving safety (e.g. aquaplan-
ing)
The tyre pressure values given for low loads are
minimum values which offer you good ride com- fort characteristics.
However, you can also use the values given for
higher loads. These are permissible and will not
adversely affect the running of the vehicle.
This improves the ride comfort of your vehicle;
however, fuel consumption may increase
slightly. Tyre pressure monitor
General notes If a tyre pressure monitor system is fitted, the
vehicle's wheels have sensors fitted that moni-
tor the tyre pressures in all four tyres. The tyre
pressure monitor warns you if the pressure
drops in one or more of the tyres. The tyre pres- sure monitor only functions if the corresponding sensors are fitted to all wheels.
Information on tyre pressures is shown in the
multifunction display. After a few minutes of
driving, the current tyre pressure of each tyre is
shown in the Service Servicemenu of the multifunction
display; see illustration (example). For further information on displaying this mes-
sage, refer to the "Checking the tyre pressure
electronically" section (Y
page 266). Tyre pressure

Important safety notes
It is the driver's responsibility to set the tyre
pressure to the recommended cold tyre pres-
sure suitable for the operating situation
(Y page 264). Note that the correct tyre pres-
sure for the current operating situation must
first be taught-in to the tyre pressure monitor. If
there is a substantial loss of pressure, the warn-
ing threshold for the warning message is aligned to the reference values taught-in. Restart the
tyre pressure monitor after adjusting to the cold tyre pressure (Y page 267). The current pres-
sures are saved as new reference values. This
will ensure that a warning message will only
appear if the tyre pressure drops significantly.
The tyre pressure monitor does not warn you of
an incorrectly set tyre pressure. Observe the
notes on the recommended tyre pressure
(Y page 264).
The tyre pressure monitor is not able to warn
you of a sudden loss of pressure, e.g. if the tyre
is penetrated by a foreign object. In the event of a sudden loss of pressure, bring the vehicle to a
halt by braking carefully. Avoid abrupt steering
manoeuvres.
The tyre pressure monitor has a yellow warning lamp in the instrument cluster for indicating a
pressure loss or malfunction. Depending on how
the warning lamp flashes or lights up, a tyre
pressure that is too low or a malfunction in the
tyre pressure monitor is indicated:
R if the warning lamp is lit continuously, the tyre
pressure on one or more tyres is significantly
too low. The tyre pressure monitor is not mal-
functioning.
R if the warning lamp flashes for around a
minute and then remains lit constantly, the
tyre pressure monitor is malfunctioning.
In addition to the warning lamp, a message
appears in the multifunction display. Observe
the information on display messages
(Y page 189).
It may take up to ten minutes for a malfunction
of the tyre pressure monitor to be indicated. A
malfunction will be indicated by the tyre pres-
sure warning lamp flashing for approximately
one minute and then remaining lit. When the
fault has been rectified, the tyre pressure warn- ing lamp goes out after you have driven for a few
minutes.
The tyre pressure values indicated by the on-
board computer may differ from those meas-
ured at a filling station using a pressure gauge. The tyre pressures shown by the on-board com-
puter refer to those measured at sea level. At
high altitudes, the tyre pressure values indica-
ted by a pressure gauge are higher than those
shown by the on-board computer. In this case,
do not reduce the tyre pressures.
The operation of the tyre pressure monitor can
be affected by interference from radio transmit- ting equipment (e.g. radio headphones, two-way
radios) that may be being operated in or near the vehicle.

loss in one or more tyres, a warning message is shown in the multifunction display. The yellow
tyre pressure warning lamp then lights up.
R If the Please correct tyre pressure
Please correct tyre pressure
message appears in the multifunction display,
the tyre pressure in at least one tyre is too
low. The tyre pressure must be corrected
when the opportunity arises.
R If the Check Check tyre(s)
tyre(s) message appears in the
multifunction display, the tyre pressure in at
least one tyre has dropped significantly. The
tyres must be checked.
R If the Warning tyre defect Warning tyre defect message
appears in the multifunction display, the tyre
pressure in at least one tyre has dropped sud- denly. The tyres must be checked.
Observe the instructions and safety notes in the display messages in the "Tyres" section
(Y page 189).
If the wheel positions on the vehicle are inter-
changed, the tyre pressures may be displayed
for the wrong positions for a short time. After a
few minutes of driving, this is rectified and the
tyre pressures are displayed for the correct
positions.
Restarting the tyre pressure monitor When you restart the tyre pressure monitor, all
existing warning messages are deleted and the
warning lamps go out. The monitor uses the cur-
rently set tyre pressures as the reference values
for monitoring. In most cases, the tyre pressure monitor will automatically detect the new refer-
ence values after you have changed the tyre
pressure. However, you can also set reference
values manually as described here. The tyre
pressure monitor then monitors the new tyre
pressure values.
