4.Insert the upright sealant container into the
compressor housing.5.Screw the filler hose of the sealant con‐
tainer onto the tyre valve of the faulty
wheel.6.Insert the plug into the socket on the inside
of the vehicle while the compressor is
switched off.7.Switch on the compressor with the ignition
switched on or the engine running.
ATTENTION
The compressor can overheat if operated
for too long. Danger of damage to property. Do
not let the compressor run for longer than 10
minutes.◀
Let the compressor run for approximately
three to 8 minutes to fill the sealing compound
and achieve a tyre inflation pressure of approx‐
imately 2.5 bar.
The tyre inflation pressure may rise to approxi‐
mately 5 bar during the filling process of the
sealing compound. Do not switch off the com‐
pressor during this step.
If it does not reach a tyre inflation pressure of
2 bar:
1.Switch off compressor.2.Remove the filler hose from the wheel.3.Drive forwards and backwards by 10 m, ap‐
proximately 400 inches to distribute the
sealant in the tyre.4.Re-inflate the tyre with the compressor.
Contact a Service Partner or a qualified
specialist workshop if the device does not
reach a tyre inflation pressure of 2 bar.
Storing Mobility system
1.Remove the filler hose of the sealant con‐
tainer from the wheel.2.Remove the connecting hose of the com‐
pressor from the sealant container.Seite 180MobilityWheels and tyres180

Page 181 of 228

3.Take the filler hose of the sealant container
that was previously connected to the tyre
valve and connect it to the free connection
on the sealant container.
This can prevent sealant residues from es‐
caping from the container.4.Pack empty sealant container to avoid soil‐
ing in the boot.5.Store Mobility system in the vehicle again.
Spreading sealant compound
Immediately drive for approximately
10 km/5 mi to evenly distribute the sealing
compound in the tyre.
Do not exceed a speed of 80 km/h/50 mph.
If possible, do not drive slower than
20 km/h/12 mph.
Correcting the tyre inflation pressure
1.Stop in a suitable area.2.Bolt the connecting hose of the compres‐
sor directly onto the tyre valve.3.Insert the plug into the socket on the inside
of the vehicle.4.Correct tyre inflation pressure to 2.5 bar.▷Increase pressure: switch on the com‐
pressor with the engine running or the
ignition switched on.▷Reduce pressure: press the button on
the compressor.
Continuing with journey
Do not exceed maximum permitted speed of
80 km/h, approximately 50 mph.
Reinitialise runflat indicator.
Reinitialise Tyre Pressure Monitor.
Have the punctured tyre and the sealant con‐
tainer of the Mobility system replaced as soon
as possible.
Snow chains
Fine-link snow chains Only certain fine-link snow chains have been
tested, found safe for use in traffic, and cate‐
gorised as suitable by the manufacturer of your
vehicle.
Information regarding suitable snow chains is
available from a Service Partner or a qualified
specialist workshop.
Using Snow chains may only be used in pairs on the
rear wheels with tyres of the following sizes:▷255/40 R 18.▷255/35 R 19.
Observe the snow chain manufacturer's notes.
Ensure that the snow chains are always ade‐
quately taut. Re-tighten them if necessary in
accordance with the chain manufacturer's in‐
structions.
Do not initialise the runflat indicator with snow
chains fitted, as the instrument might other‐
wise issue an incorrect reading.
Do not initialise the Tyre Pressure Monitor with
snow chains fitted, as the instrument might
otherwise issue an incorrect reading.
When driving with snow chains, activate M Dy‐
namic Mode briefly if necessary.
Maximum speed with snow chains
When snow chains are fitted, do not exceed
50 km/h, 30 mph.

5.Install the cable on the handle of the emer‐
gency release and engage the handle into
the fastening.6.Fit the bracket for the warning triangle.7.Attach the warning triangle.
Tail lights, number plate lights and
centre brake light
These lights use LED technology. Contact a
Service Partner or a qualified specialist work‐
shop in the case of a defect.
Changing a wheel
Notes
When using sealants, immediate wheel change
in the event of loss of tyre pressure in case of
puncture is not required.
As a result, no spare wheel is available.
The tools for changing wheels are available as
optional accessories from a Service Partner or
a qualified specialist workshop.
Jack mounting points
The jack mounting points are located in the il‐
lustrated positions.
Thiefproof wheel studs
The adapter of the thiefproof wheel studs can
be found in the tool kit or in an oddments tray
in the tool kit.
▷Wheel stud, arrow 1.▷Adapter, arrow 2.
Removing
1.Place the adapter on the wheel stud.2.Unscrew wheel stud.
After reattaching the wheel stud, remove the
adapter again.
Car battery Maintenance
The battery is maintenance-free.
More information regarding the battery can be
enquired with a Service Partner or a qualified
specialist workshop.
Replacing the battery ATTENTION
Vehicle batteries that have been categor‐
ised by the manufacturer of the vehicle as un‐
suitable can damage systems, or prevent func‐
tions from being carried out. Danger of
damage to property. Only use vehicle batteries
that have been classified as suitable by the ve‐
hicle manufacturer.◀
When the vehicle battery has been changed,
have the battery registered on the vehicle by a
Service Partner or a qualified specialist work‐
shop to ensure that all comfort functions are
fully available and any appropriate Check Con‐
trol messages are no longer displayed.

General careVehicle equipment
This chapter describes all standard, national
and special equipment provided in the model
series. Equipment not available in the vehicle is
therefore also described, for example the se‐
lected special equipment or national version.
This also applies to safety-relevant functions
and systems. Comply with the relevant na‐
tional regulations when using the correspond‐
ing functions and systems.
Washing the vehicle
General Regularly remove foreign bodied, for example,
leaves, with the bonnet opened in the area be‐
neath with windscreen.
Especially in winter, wash the car more fre‐
quently. Very high levels of dirt and spreading
salt can cause damage to the car.
Steam-jet cleaners and high-pressure
cleaners
Notes ATTENTION
When cleaning with high-pressure clean‐
ers, excessive pressure or excessive tempera‐
tures can damage various components. Dan‐
ger of damage to property. Ensure a sufficient
distance and do not spray for an extended pe‐
riod of time. Comply with the instructions for
the high-pressure cleaner.◀
Distances and temperature▷Maximum temperature: 60 ℃/140 ℉.▷Minimum distance to sensors, cameras,
seals: 30 cm, approx. 12 in.▷Minimum distance to the Glass Roof:
80 cm, approx. 31.5 in.
Automatic car washes.
Notes ATTENTION
Water can penetrate in the window area
due to high pressure washers. Danger of dam‐
age to property. Avoid high pressure wash‐
ers.◀
▷Textile car washes or systems using soft
brushes are preferable, to avoid damage to
the paintwork.▷Make sure the wheels and tyres are not
damaged by the conveying mechanism.▷Fold in the exterior mirrors, as they could
otherwise sustain damage due to the vehi‐
cle's width.▷Deactivate the rain sensor, see page 72, to
avoid unintentional operation of the wipers.▷In some instances, depending on the inte‐
rior movement detector of the alarm sys‐
tem, a false alarm may be triggered. Ob‐
serve the notes on avoiding false alarm,
see page 43.
ATTENTION
Excessively high guide rails in car
washes can damage parts of the body. Danger
of damage to property. Avoid washing bays or
car washes with guide rails more than 10 cm,
approximately 4 in high.◀
Entering a car wash
Follow the below steps so that the vehicle can
be driven into a vehicle wash:
