acteristics) (Y page 326)
Vehicle preparation is not necessary on vehi- cles with MOExtended tyres.
R a TIREFIT kit (Y page 325)
R an emergency spare wheel (certain countries
only) (Y page 356)
Vehicles with MOExtended tyres are not equip-
ped with a TIREFIT kit at the factory. It is there-
fore recommended that you additionally equip
your vehicle with a TIREFIT kit if you fit tyres that do not feature run-flat characteristics, e.g. win-
ter tyres. A TIREFIT kit can be obtained from a
qualified specialist workshop.

ments. Vehicles with MOExtended tyres
(tyres with run-flat characteristics)
General notes With MOExtended tyres (tyres with run-flat char-
acteristics), you can continue to drive your vehi-
cle even if there is a total loss of air in one or
more tyres. The affected tyre must not show any clearly visible damage.
You can recognise MOExtended tyres by the
"MOExtended" marking that appears on the tyre
sidewall. You will find this marking next to the
tyre size designation, the load-bearing capacity
and the speed index.
MOExtended tyres may be used only in conjunc- tion with an activated tyre pressure loss warning system or tyre pressure monitor.
If a tyre pressure loss warning message
appears on the multifunction display:
R observe the instructions in the display mes-
sages (Y page 265)
R check the tyre for damage
R if driving on, observe the following notes
The driving distance possible in run-flat mode is
approximately 80 km when the vehicle is parti-
ally laden and approximately 30 km when the
vehicle is fully laden.
In addition to the vehicle load, the driving dis-
tance possible in run-flat mode depends on the:
R vehicle speed
R road condition
R outside temperature
The driving distance possible in run-flat mode
may be reduced by extreme driving conditions/ manoeuvres, or it can be increased through a
moderate style of driving.
The driving distance possible in run-flat mode iscounted from the moment the tyre pressure loss
warning appears on the multifunction display. 326
Flat tyreBreakdown assistance

The tyre pressure values given for low loads are
minimum values that offer you good driving
comfort 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. Tyre pressure loss warning system
General notes While the vehicle is in motion, the tyre pressure
loss warning system monitors the set tyre pres-
sure using the rotational speed of the wheels.
This enables the system to detect significant
pressure loss in a tyre. If the rotational speed of
a wheel changes as a result of a loss of tire
pressure, a corresponding warning message will
appear in the multifunction display.
You can recognise the tyre pressure loss warn-
ing by the Run Flat Indicator active Run Flat Indicator active
Restart with OK
Restart with OK message, which appears in
the Service
Service menu of the multifunction display.
Information on the message display can be
found in the "Restarting the tyre pressure loss
warning system" section (Y page 347).
Important safety notes The tyre pressure warning system does not warn
you of an incorrectly set tyre pressure. Observe the notes on the recommended tyre pressure
(Y page 345).
The tyre pressure loss warning system does not
replace the need to regularly check the tyre
pressure. An even loss of pressure on several
tyres at the same time cannot be detected by
the tyre pressure loss warning system.
The tyre pressure loss warning system is not
able to warn you of a sudden loss of air, e.g. if the
tyre is penetrated by a foreign object. In the
event of a sudden loss of air, bring the vehicle to
a halt by braking carefully. Avoid abrupt steering manoeuvres.
The function of the tyre pressure loss warning
system is limited or delayed if:
R snow chains are fitted on your vehicle
R road conditions are wintry
R you are driving on a loose surface (e.g. sand or
gravel) R
you adopt a very sporty driving style (corner-
ing at high speeds or driving with high rates of
acceleration)
R you are towing a very heavy or large trailer
R you are driving with a heavy load
Restarting the tyre pressure loss warn-
ing system Restart the tyre pressure loss warning system if
you have:
R changed the tyre pressure
R changed the wheels or tyres
R fitted new wheels or tyres
X Before restarting, make sure that the tyre
pressures are set properly on all four tyres for
the respective operating conditions. The rec-
ommended tyre pressures can be found in the tyre pressure table on the fuel filler flap.
The tyre pressure loss warning system can
only give reliable warnings if you have set the
correct tyre pressure. If an incorrect tyre
pressure is set, this incorrect value will be
monitored.

The tyre pressure values stored at the last
restart will continue to be monitored. 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 functions only if the corresponding
sensors are fitted to all wheels.
Information on tyre pressures is shown on 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 349).
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 345). Note that the correct tyre pres-
sure for the current operating situation must
first be taught-in to the tyre pressure monitor. If
a substantial loss of pressure occurs, the warn- ing threshold for the warning message is aligned
to the taught-in reference values. Restart the tyre pressure monitor after adjusting to the cold
tyre pressure (Y page 349). The current pres-
sures are saved as new reference values. This
ensures that a warning message appears only 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 345).
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 air, bring the vehicle to a halt by braking carefully. Avoid abrupt steering
manoeuvres.
The tyre pressure monitor has a yellow warning
lamp on 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 on the multifunction display. Observe
the information on display messages
(Y page 265).
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. cordless headphones, two- 348
Tyre pressureWheels and tyres

way radios) that may be being operated in or
near the vehicle.

active
message is shown instead of the tyre pressure
display. The tyre pressures are already being
monitored.
After an emergency spare wheel has been fitted, the system may still display the tyre pressure of
the removed wheel for a few minutes. If this
occurs, note that the value displayed for the
position where the spare wheel is fitted is not
the same as the current tyre pressure of the
emergency spare wheel.
Warning messages of the tyre pressure monitor If the tyre pressure monitor detects a pressure
loss in one or more tyres, a warning message is
shown on 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 on the multifunction dis-
play, 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 tyre(s)
Check tyre(s) message appears on
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 on 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 265).
If the position of the wheels on the vehicle is
changed, the tyre pressures may be displayed in
the wrong positions for a short time. After a few minutes of driving, this is rectified and the tyre
pressures are displayed in 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.
X Use the table on the inside of the fuel filler flap
to ensure that the tyre pressure is set cor-
rectly in all four tyres for the current operating
conditions.
Also observe the notes in the section on tyre
pressures (Y page 345).

the event of a flat tyre, the emergency spare
wheel is fitted according to the description
under "Fitting a wheel" (Y page 351). Interchanging the wheels
G
WARNING
Interchanging the front and rear wheels may
severely impair the driving characteristics if
the wheels or tyres have different dimensions. The wheel brakes or suspension components may also be damaged. There is a risk of acci-
dent.
Interchange front and rear wheels only if the
wheels and tyres are of the same dimensions. 350
Changing a wheelWheels and tyres

When using an emergency spare wheel or spare
wheel of a different size, you must not exceed
the maximum speed of 80 km/h.
Snow chains must not be fitted to emergency
spare wheels. General notes
You can ask for information regarding permitted
emergency spare wheels at a Mercedes-Benz
Service Centre.
You should regularly check the pressure of all
your tyres, including the emergency spare
wheel, particularly prior to long trips, and cor-
rect the pressure as necessary (Y page 345).
The value on the wheel is valid.
An emergency spare wheel may also be fitted
against the direction of rotation. Observe the
time restriction on use as well as the speed lim- itation specified on the emergency spare wheel.
Replace the tyres after six years at the latest,
regardless of wear. This also applies to the
emergency spare wheel.
If you are driving with the emergency spare
wheel fitted, the tyre pressure loss warning sys- tem or the tyre pressure monitor cannot func-
tion reliably. Restart the tyre pressure loss warn-
ing system or tyre pressure monitor only once
the defective wheel has been replaced with a
new wheel.
Vehicles with tyre pressure monitor: after an
emergency spare wheel has been fitted, the sys- tem may still display the tyre pressure of the
removed wheel for a few minutes. The value dis-
played for the position where the emergency
spare wheel is fitted is not the same as the cur- rent tyre pressure of the emergency spare
wheel. Removing the emergency spare wheel
The emergency spare wheel is secured in the
emergency spare wheel bag in the boot.
X Open the boot.
X Detach the securing straps.
X Unhook the spring hooks of the securing
straps from the retainers.
