Cleaning and care
Notes onwashingthevehicle in a carwash
\nWARNINGRisk of accident duetoreduced braking effect afterwashingthevehicle
The braking effect isreduced afterwashingthevehicle.
Afterthevehicle has beenwashed,brake carefully while paying attentiontothe traffic conditions untilthe brakingeffect has been fullyrestored.
NOTEDamageduetounsuitable carwash
Before driving into a carwash makesurethatthe carwash is suitableforthevehicle dimensions.
Ensurethere is sufficient ground clear‐ance betweenthe underbody andtheguiderails ofthe carwash.
Ensurethatthe clearance width ofthecarwash, in particularthe width oftheguiderails, is sufficient.
Toavoid damageto yourvehicle when using acarwash, ensurethefollowing beforehand:
RActive Distance AssistDISTRONIC andtheHOLD function are deactivated.
Rthe 360° Camera ortherear view camera isswitched off.
Rthe side windowsand sliding sunroof arecompletelyclosed.

Maintenance and care355

Notes on noise or unusual handlingcharac‐teristics
While driving, pay attentiontovibrations, noisesand unusual handlingcharacteristics, e.g. pullingtoone side. This may indicatethatthe wheels ortires are damaged. Ifyou suspectthat a tire isdefective,reduceyour speed immediately.Stopthevehicle as soon as possibletocheckthewheels and tiresfor damage. Hidden tire dam‐age could also be causingthe unusual handlingcharacteristics. Ifyoufind no signs of damage,havethe tires and wheelschecked at aqualifiedspecialistworkshop.
Notes onregularlyinspecting wheels andtires
\nWARNINGRisk of accident from dam‐aged tires
Damaged tires can cause tire pressure loss.
As aresult,you could lose control ofyourvehicle.
Checkthe tiresregularlyfor signs ofdamageandreplace any damaged tiresimmediately.
\nWARNINGRisk of aquaplaning duetoinsufficient tire tread
Insufficient tire tread willresult inreducedtire grip. The tire tread is no longer abletodissipatewater.
This meansthat in heavyrain or slushtherisk ofhydroplaning is increased, in particu‐lar ifvehicle speed is not adaptedtosuittheconditions.
Ifthe tire pressure istoo high ortoo low,tires mayexhibit different levels ofwear atdifferent locations onthe tire contact sur‐face.
Thus,you shouldregularlycheckthetread depth andthe condition ofthe tirecontact surface acrossthe entire widthof all tires.

Maximum tire load:the maximum tire load isthe maximum permissibleweight in kilograms orlbsfor whicha tire is approved.
Maximum permissible tire pressure:maxi‐mum permissible tire pressurefor one tire.
Maximum load on one tire:maximum load onone tire. This is calculatedbydividingthe maxi‐mum axle load of one axlebytwo.
PSI (pounds per square inch):standard unit ofmeasurementfor tire pressure.
Aspectratio:ratio between tire height and tirewidth in percent.
Tirepressure:pressure insidethe tire applyingan outwardforcetoeverysquare inch ofthe tire.The tire pressure is specified in pounds persquare inch (psi), in kilopascals (kPa) or in bar.The tire pressure should only be corrected whenthe tires are cold.

404Wheels and tires

Only use tires, wheels and accessoriesthathavebeenchecked andrecommendedbyMercedes-Benz.
NOTERisktodriving safety fromretrea‐ded tires
Retreaded tires are neithertested norrecom‐mendedbyMercedes-Benz, since previousdamage cannot always be detected onretreaded tires.
Forthisreason driving safety cannot be guar‐anteed.
Do not use used tires ifyou havenoinformation abouttheir previous usage.
NOTEPossible damagetowheels or tireswhen drivingover obstacles
Large wheels havea lower tire section width.The lowerthe tire section width,the greateristherisk of damagetowheels or tires whendrivingover obstacles.
Avoid obstacles or drive particularlycarefully.
NOTEDamagetoelectronic componentparts fromthe use of tire-mountingtools
Vehicles with a tire pressure monitoringsystem:Electronic component parts arelocated inthe wheel.Tire-mountingtoolsshould not be used inthe area ofthevalve.
This couldotherwise damagethe electroniccomponent parts.
Havethe tireschanged at aqualifiedspecialistworkshop only.
NOTEDamagetosummer tires at lowambienttemperatures
Atlow ambienttemperatures,tears couldformwhen driving with summer tires, caus‐ing permanent damagetothe tires.
Attemperatures below 45 °F (7 °C),use M+S tires .
Accessory partsthat are not approvedforyourvehiclebyMercedes-Benz or are not being usedcorrectly can impairthe operating safety.
Before purchasing and using non-approvedaccessories, visit aqualified specialistworkshopand inquire about:
RSuitability
RLegalstipulations
RFactoryrecommendations
\nWARNINGRisk of accident withhighperformance tires
The special tire tread in combination withtheoptimized tire compound meansthattheriskof skidding orhydroplaning onwetroads isincreased.
In addition,the tire grip is greatlyreduced ata low outsidetemperature and tirerunningtemperature.
Switch onthe ESP®and adaptyourdrivingstyle accordingly.
Use M+S tire at outsidetemperaturesof lessthan10°C (50 °F).
