Position of the steering wheel for driv-
ing
The steering wheel is moved to the last selected
position when:
Rthe driver's door is closed and you insert the
SmartKey into the ignition lock
Ryou close the driver's door when the ignition
is switched on
Ryou press the Start/Stop button once on vehi-
cles with KEYLESS-GO
iThe steering wheel only returns to the last
set position if the driving position is stored
after the seat or steering column has been
adjusted (
Ypage 109).
The most recent driving position of the steering
wheel is stored if:
Rthe ignition is switched off
Rthe settingiss tored with the memory function
(Ypage 109).
Crash-responsive EASY-EXIT feature
If the crash-responsive EASY-EXIT feature is trig-
gered in an accident, the steering column will
move upwards when the driver's door is opened
or the SmartKey is removed from the ignition
lock. This makes it easier to exit the vehicle and
rescue the occupants.
The crash-responsive EASY-EXIT feature is only
operational if the EASY-EXIT/ENTRY feature is
activated in the multimedia system (see the sep-
arate operating instructions).

GWARNING
You could lose control of your vehicle if you do the following while driving:
Radjust the driver's seat, head restraint,

Rfasten the seat belt
There is arisk of an accident.
Adjust the driver's seat, head restraint,s teer-
ing wheel and mirror and fasten your seat belt
before startin gthe engine.
GWARNING
The exterior mirror on the front-passenger
side reduces the size of the image. Visible
object sare actually closer than they appear.
This means that you could misjudge the dis-
tance from road users traveling behind, e.g.
when changing lane. There is arisk of an acci-
dent.
For this reason, always make sure of the
actual distance from the road users traveling
behind by glancing over your shoulder.

temperatures could cause cracks to form,
thereby damaging the tires permanently.
Mercedes-Benz cannot accept responsibility for
this type of damage.
GWARNING
Damage dtires can cause tire inflation pres-

you rvehicle. There is arisk of accident.
Check the tires regularly for signs of damage
and replace any damaged tires immediately.
M+S tires
GWARNING
M+S tires with atire tread depth of less than
ã in (4 mm) are not suitable for use in winter
and do not provid esufficient traction. There is
ar isk of an accident.
M+S tires with atread depth of less than ãin
(4 mm) must be replaced immediately.
At temperatures belo w45‡ (+7 †), use winter
tires or all-season tires. Bot htype soft ire are
identified by the M+S marking.
Only winter tires bearing the isnowflake
symbol in addition to the M+S marking provide
the best possibl egrip in wintry road conditions.
Only these tires wil lallow driving safety systems
such as ABS and ESP
®to function optimally in
winter. Theset ires have beend eveloped specif-
ically for driving in snow.
Use M+S tires of the same make and tread on all
wheels to maintain safe handling characteris-
tics.
Always observe the maximu mpermissible
speeds pecified for the M+S tires you have
mounted.
When you have mounted the M+S tires:
XCheck the tire pressures (Ypag e322).
XRestart the tire pressure monitor

The tire pressure table contains the recommen-

Important safety notes
GWARNING
Each tire, including the spare (if provided),
shoul dbec hecked at least once every two
weeks when cold and inflated to the pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer
on the Tire and Loading Information placard
on the driver's door B-pillaro rthe tire pres-
sure label on the inside of the fuel fillerf lap. If
you rvehicle has tires of adifferent size than
the size indicated on the Tire and Loading
Information placard or, if available, the tire
pressure label, you shoul ddetermine the
proper tire pressure for those tires.
As an adde dsafety feature, you rvehicle has
been equipped with atire pressure monitoring
system (TPMS) that illuminates alow tire pres-
sure telltal ewhen one or more of you rtires
are significantly underinflated. Accordingly,
when the low tire pressure telltal elights up,
you shoul dstop and check you rtires as soon
as possible, and inflate them to the proper
pressure. Driving on asignificantly underin-
flated tire cause sthe tire to overheata nd can
leadtot ire failure.
Underinflation also reduces fuel efficiency
and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle's
handling and stopping ability. Please note that the TPMS is not asubstitute for proper tire
maintenance, and it is the driver's responsi-
bility to maintain correct tire pressure, even if
underinflation has not reached the level to
trigger illuminatio nofthe TPMS low tire pres-
sure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a
TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate when
the system is not operating properly. The
TPMS malfunction indicator is combined with
the low tire pressure telltale. When the sys-
tem detects amalfunction, the warning lamp
wil lflash for approximately aminute and then
remain continuously illuminated .This
sequence wil lberepeated every time the vehi-
cle is started as long as the malfunction
exists. When the malfunction indicator is illu-
minated, the system may not be abl etodetect
or signal low tire pressure as intended.
TPMS malfunctions may occur for avariety of
reasons, including the installation of incom-
patibl ereplacement or alternate tires or
wheel sonthe vehicle that prevent the TPMS
from functioning properly. Alway scheck the
TPMS malfunction telltal eafter replacing one
or more tires or wheel sonyourv ehicle to
ensure that the replacement or alternate Tires
and wheelsa llow the TPMS to continue to
function properly.
It is the driver's responsibility to set the tire
pressure to that recommended for cold tires
which is suitable for the operating situation
(
Ypage 319). Note that the correct tire pressure
for the current operating situation must first be
taught-in to the tire pressure monitor. If there is
as ubstantial loss of pressure, the warning
threshold for the warning messag eisaligned to
the reference values taught-in. Restart the tire
pressure monitor after adjusting the pressure of
the cold tires (
Ypage 325). The current pres-
sures are saved as new reference values. As a
result, awarning messag ewillappear if the tire
pressure drops significantly.
The tire pressure monitor does not warn you of
an incorrectly set tire pressure. Observe the
notes on the recommended tire pressure
(
Ypage 319).
The tire pressure monitor is not abl etowarn you
of as udden loss of pressure, e.g. if the tire is
penetrated by aforeign object. In the event of a
su

dden loss of pressure, bring the vehicle to a
halt by braking carefully. Avoid abrupt steering
movements.
