reduces soiling, wear marks and ageing dam-
age and thus signiNcantly extends its life
span. Clothing that can leave stains (e.g.
jeans) can discolour the leather. DINAMICA seat covers

es&
WARNING Risk of accident due t
o a Oat
tyre
A Oat tyr
e severely aMects the driving charac-
teristics as well as the steering and braking of
the vehicle. Tyres without
r
un-Oat characteristics: 
Do not drive with a Oat tyr
e. 
Change the Oat tyr
e immediately with an
emergency spare wheel or spare wheel.
Alternatively, consult a qualiNed special-
ist workshop.
Tyres with r
un-Oat characteristics: 
Observe the information and warning
no
tes on MOExtended tyres (run-Oat
tyres). In the event of a Oat
tyr
e, the following options are
available depending on your vehicle's equipment:
= Vehicles with MOExtended tyres: it is possible
to continue the journey for a short period of
time. Make sure you observe the notes on
MOExtended tyres (run-Oat tyres)
( page 402).
= Vehicles with a TIREFIT kit: you can repair the
tyre so that it is possible to continue the jour-
ney for a short period of time. To do this, use
the TIREFIT kit ( page 404). =
V
ehicles with Mercedes me connect: you can
make a call for breakdown assistance via the
overhead control panel in the case of a break-
down (  page 362).
= All vehicles: change the wheel (  page 432). Notes on MOExtended tyres

WARNING Risk of accident when dr
iving in
limp-home mode
Driving in emergency mode impairs the han-
dling c
haracteristics of the vehicle. 
Do not exceed the permissible maximum
speed of t
he MOExtended tyres. 
Avoid any abrupt steering and driving
manoeuvr
es as well as driving over
obstacles (kerbs, pot holes, oM-road).
This applies, in particular, to a loaded
vehicle. 
Stop driving in the emergency mode if
y

ou notice:

intervention
= cracks in the tyre sidewalls 
Aser dr
iving in emergency mode, have
the rims checked by a qualiNed specialist
workshop with regard to their further
use. 
The defective tyre must be replaced in
e

very case. With MOExtended tyres
(r
un-Oat tyres), you can
continue to drive your vehicle even if there is a
total loss of pressure in one or more tyres. How-
ever, the tyre aMected must not show any clearly
visible damage.
You can recognise MOExtended tyres by the
MOExtended marking which appears on the side
wall of the tyre.
Vehicles with tyre pressure loss warning system:
MOExtended tyres may only be used in conjunc-
tion with an activated tyre pressure loss warning
system. Vehicles with tyre pressure monitoring system:
MOExt

ended tyres may only be used in conjunc-
tion with an activated tyre pressure monitoring
system.
If a pressure loss warning message appears in the
driver's display, proceed as follows:
= Check the tyre for damage.
= If driving on, observe the following notes.
Driving distance possible in emergency mode
aser the pressure loss warning: Load condition Driving distance possi-
ble in emer
gency mode
Partially laden 80 km
Fully laden 30 km The driving distance possible in emergency mode
ma
y vary depending on the driving style. Observe
the maximum permissible speed of 80 km/h.
If a tyre has gone Oat and cannot be replaced with
an MOExtended tyre, you can use a standard tyre
as a temporary measure. TIREFIT kit storage location

inOation compressor.
The tyre pressure must now be at least
130 kPa (1.3 bar/19 psi). &
WARNING Risk of accident due t
o the
speciNed tyre pressure not being attained
If the speciNed tyr
e pressure is not reached,
the tyre is too badly damaged. The tyre seal-
ant cannot repair the tyre in this instance.
The braking and driving characteristics may be
greatly impaired. 
Do not continue driving.
