The wheels could work loose if the wheel nuts and bolts are not tightened to the specified
tightening torque. There is a risk of accident.
Have the tightening torque immediately
checked at a qualified specialist workshop
after a wheel is changed.

wheel and adjust if necessary.
Observe the recommended tyre pressure
(Y page 345).
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

new wheel.
Vehicles with tyre pressure monitor: all fitted
wheels must be equipped with functioning sen-
sors. Wheel-tyre combination

mends that you only use tyres and wheels
which have been approved by Mercedes-Benz specifically for your vehicle. Wheel-tyre combination
