Important safety notes
G
WARNING
If you manipulate, bridge or replace a faulty
fuse with a fuse of a higher amperage, the
electric cables could be overloaded. This may result in a fire. There is a risk of an accident
and injury.
Always replace faulty fuses with specified new fuses of the correct amperage.
! Only use fuses that have been approved for
Mercedes-Benz vehicles and which have the
correct fuse rating for the system concerned.
Only use fuses marked with an "S". Compo-
nents or systems could otherwise be dam-
aged.
! Make sure that no moisture can enter the
fuse box when the cover is open.
! When closing the cover, make sure that it is
lying correctly on the fuse box. Moisture seep-
ing in or dirt could otherwise impair the oper- ation of the fuses. The fuses in your vehicle disconnect faulty cir-
cuits. If a fuse blows, all the components in the
circuit and their functions will fail.
Blown fuses must be replaced with fuses of the same rating, which you can recognise by the
colour and fuse rating. The fuse ratings are listed
in the fuse allocation chart.
The fuse allocation chart is in the fuse box in the front-passenger footwell (Y page 309).
If the newly inserted fuse also blows, have the
cause traced and rectified at a qualified special- ist workshop, e.g. a Mercedes-Benz Service
Centre. Before replacing a fuse

WARNING
A flat tyre severely impairs the driving, steer-
ing and braking characteristics of the vehicle.
There is a risk of accident.
Tyres without run-flat characteristics:
R do not drive with a flat tyre.
R immediately replace the flat tyre with your
emergency spare wheel or spare wheel, or
consult a qualified specialist workshop.
Tyres with run-flat characteristics:
R pay attention to the information and warn-
ing notices on MOExtended tyres (tyres
with run-flat characteristics).
Accessories that are not approved for your vehi-
cle by Mercedes-Benz or are not being used cor- rectly can impair operating safety.
Before purchasing and using non-approved
accessories, visit a qualified specialist work-
shop and enquire about:
R suitability
R legal stipulations
R factory recommendations Further information regarding wheels and tyres
can be found under "Wheel/tyre combinations"
(Y page 323).
You can ask for information regarding permitted
wheel/tyre combinations at a Mercedes-Benz
Service Centre.
Information on tyre pressures can be found:
R in the tyre pressure table in the fuel filler flap
(Y page 154)
R under "Tyre pressure" (Y page 313)
Modification work on the brake system and
wheels is not permitted. The use of spacers or
brake dust shields is not permitted. This inva-
lidates the general operating permit for the vehi- cle.
i Further information on wheels and tyres can
be obtained at any qualified specialist work-
shop. Operation
Information on driving
Check the tyre pressure when the vehicle is
heavily laden and adjust prior to a trip.
While driving, pay attention to vibrations, noises
and unusual handling characteristics, e.g. pull-
ing to one side. This may indicate that the
wheels or tyres are damaged. If you suspect that a tyre is defective, reduce your speed immedi-
ately. Stop the vehicle as soon as possible to
check the wheels and tyres for damage. Hidden
tyre damage could also be causing the unusual
handling characteristics. If you find no signs of
damage, have the tyres and wheels checked at a qualified specialist workshop.
When parking your vehicle, make sure not to
squash the tyre. If you cannot avoid driving over
obstacles, e.g. kerbs, do so slowly and at an
obtuse angle only. You could otherwise damage the wheel rims and tyres. Regular checking of wheels and tyres
G
WARNING
Damaged tyres can cause tyre inflation pres-
sure loss. As a result, you could lose control of your vehicle. There is a risk of accident. 310
OperationWheels and ty
res

Check the tyres regularly for signs of damage
and replace any damaged tyres immediately.
Check wheels and tyres for damage at least
once a month. Check wheels and tyres after
driving off-road or on rough roads. Damaged
wheels can cause a loss of tyre pressure. Pay
particular attention to damage such as:
R cuts in the tyres
R punctures
R tears in the tyres
R bulges on the tyres
R deformation or severe corrosion on the
wheels
Regularly check the tyre tread depth and the
condition of the tread across the whole width of
the tyre (Y page 311). If necessary, turn the
front wheels to full lock to make it easier to
inspect the inner side of the tyre surface.
All wheels must have a valve cap to protect the valve against dirt and moisture. Do not fit any-
thing onto the valve other than the standard
valve cap or other valve caps specially approved
for your vehicle by Mercedes-Benz. Do not fit
any other valve caps or systems, e.g. tyre pres- sure monitors.
Check the pressure of all tyres regularly as well
as prior to long trips. Adjust the tyre pressure as necessary (Y page 313).
Observe the notes on the emergency spare
wheel (Y page 323).
The service life of a tyre depends on various fac- tors, including the following:
R Driving style
R Tyre pressure
R Mileage Notes on the tyre tread
G
WARNING
Insufficient tyre tread will reduce tyre trac-
tion. The tyre is no longer able to dissipate
water. This means that on wet road surfaces, the risk of aquaplaning increases, in particularwhere speed is not adapted to suit the driving
conditions. There is a risk of accident.
If the tyre pressure is too high or too low, tyres may exhibit different levels of wear at differ- ent locations on the tyre tread. Thus, you
should regularly check the tread depth and
the condition of the tread across the entire
width of all tyres.
Minimum tyre tread depth for:
R summer tyres: 3 mm
R M+S tyres: 4 mm
For safety reasons, replace the tyres before
the legally prescribed limit for the minimum
tyre tread depth is reached. Selecting, fitting and replacing tyres
G
WARNING
Exceeding the stated tyre load-bearing capa-
city and the approved maximum speed could
lead to tyre damage or the tyre bursting. There is a risk of accident.
Therefore, only use tyre types and sizes
approved for your vehicle model. Observe the
tyre load rating and speed rating required for your vehicle.
Pay special attention to country-specific
requirements for tyre approval. These require-
ments may stipulate a specific tyre type for your
vehicle. Furthermore, the use of a specific tyre
type in certain regions and areas of operation
can be highly beneficial. You can find further
information regarding tyres at specialist tyre
retailers, at qualified specialist workshops or at
any Mercedes-Benz Service Centre.
R Use only tyres and wheels of the same type
and make.
Exception: it is permissible to fit a different
type or make in the event of a flat tyre.
Observe here the "MOExtended tyres (tyres
with run-flat characteristics)" section
(Y page 295).
R Fit only tyres of the correct size onto the
wheels.
R Run in new tyres at moderate speeds for the
first 100 km. They reach their full perform-
ance only after this distance. Operation
311Wheels and tyres Z

R
Do not drive with tyres that have too little
tread depth. This significantly reduces trac-
tion on wet roads (aquaplaning).
R Replace the tyres after six years at the latest,
regardless of wear.
Observe the notes on the emergency spare
wheel (Y page 323). MOExtended tyres (tyres with run-flat
characteristics)
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 pressure in one or more tyres.
MOExtended tyres may be used only in conjunc-tion with an activated tyre pressure loss warning
system or with an activated tyre pressure mon-
itor and only on wheels specifically tested by
Mercedes-Benz.
Notes on driving with MOExtended tyres with a
flat tyre (Y page 295).
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. Winter operation
General notes
Have your vehicle winterproofed at a qualified
specialist workshop at the onset of winter.
Observe the notes in the "Changing a wheel"
section (Y page 318). Driving with summer tyres
At temperatures below +7 †, summer tyres lose
elasticity and therefore traction and braking
power. Change the tyres on your vehicle to
M+S tyres. Using summer tyres at very cold
temperatures could cause tears to form,
thereby damaging the tyres permanently.
Mercedes-Benz cannot accept responsibility for
this type of damage. G
WARNING
Damaged tyres can cause tyre inflation pres-
sure loss. As a result, you could lose control of your vehicle. There is a risk of accident.
Check the tyres regularly for signs of damageand replace any damaged tyres immediately. M+S tyres
G
WARNING
M+S tyres with a tyre tread depth of less than 4 mm are not suitable for use in winter as they
do not provide sufficient traction. There is a
risk of accident.
M+S tyres with a tread depth of less than
4 mm must be replaced.
At temperatures below +7 †, use winter tyres or all-season tyres. Both types of tyre are identified
by the M+S marking.
Only winter tyres bearing the isnowflake
symbol in addition to the M+S marking provide
the best possible grip in wintry road conditions. Only these tyres will allow driving safety sys-
tems such as ABS and ESP ®
to function opti-
mally in winter. These tyres have been devel-
oped specifically for driving in snow.
Use M+S tyres of the same make and tread on all
wheels to maintain safe handling characteris-
tics.
Always observe the maximum permissible
speed specified for the M+S tyres you have fit-
ted.
If you fit M+S tyres that have a lower maximum
permissible speed than that of the vehicle, affix
an appropriate warning label in the driver's field
of vision. This can be obtained at a qualified
specialist workshop.
Under these circumstances, you should also
restrict the maximum design speed of the vehi- cle using the permanent limiter to the maximumpermissible speed for the M+S tyres
(Y page 166). 312
Winter operationWheels and tyres

When you have fitted the M+S tyres:
X Check the tyre pressures (Y page 313).
X Restart the tyre pressure loss warning system
(Y page 315).
X Restart the tyre pressure monitor
(Y page 317).
Information about driving with an emergency
spare wheel (Y page 323). Snow chains
G
WARNING
If snow chains are fitted to the rear wheels,
they may scrape against the vehicle body or
chassis components. This could cause dam-
age to the vehicle or the tyres. There is a risk of an accident.
To avoid hazardous situations:
R never fit snow chains on the rear wheels
R always fit snow chains in pairs to the front
wheels.
! Vehicles with steel wheels:
if you fit snow
chains on steel wheels, you may damage the
hub caps. Remove the hub caps from the rel- evant wheels before fitting the snow chains.
For safety reasons, Mercedes-Benz recom-
mends that you only use snow chains that have been approved for Mercedes-Benz or that are of
an equivalent standard of quality. For more
information, please contact a qualified special-
ist workshop.
If you wish to fit snow chains, please bear the
following points in mind:
R Snow chains cannot be fitted to all wheel/
tyre combinations. Permitted wheel/tyre
combinations (Y page 323).
R Use snow chains only if the road surface is
completely snow-covered. Remove the snow
chains as soon as possible when you come to a road that is not snow-covered.
R Local regulations may restrict the use of snow
chains. Observe the appropriate regulations if you wish to fit snow chains.
R do not exceed the maximum permissible
speed of 50 km/h.
R do not use Parking Pilot when snow chains are
fitted (Y page 180). You may wish to deactivate ESP
®
when pulling
away with snow chains fitted (Y page 70). This
allows the wheels to spin in a controlled manner, achieving increased propulsive force (cut).
Information about driving with an emergency
spare wheel (Y page 323). Tyre pressure
Tyre pressure specifications
G
WARNING
Underinflated or overinflated tyres pose the
following risks:
R the tyres may burst, especially as the load
and vehicle speed increase.
R the tyres may wear excessively and/or
unevenly, which may greatly impair tyre
traction.
R the driving characteristics, as well as steer-
ing and braking, may be greatly impaired.
There is a risk of an accident.
Observe the recommended tyre pressure and check the tyre pressure of all the tyres includ-
ing the spare wheel:
R at least every two weeks
R when the load changes
R before embarking on a longer journey
R for changed operating conditions, e.g. off-
road driving
If necessary, correct the tyre pressure. G
WARNING
If you fit unsuitable accessories onto tyre
valves, the tyre valves may be overloaded and malfunction, which can cause tyre pressure
loss. Due to their design, retrofitted tyre pres-
sure monitors keep the tyre valve open. This
can also result in tyre pressure loss. There is a risk of accident.
Only screw standard valve caps or valve caps
specifically provided by Mercedes-Benz for
your vehicle onto the tyre valve. Tyre pressure
313Wheels and tyres Z

G
WARNING
If the tyre pressure drops repeatedly, the
wheel, valve or tyre may be damaged. Tyre
pressure that is too low may result in a tyre
blow-out. There is a risk of accident.
R Check the tyre for foreign objects.
R Check whether the wheel is losing air or the
valve is leaking.
If you are unable to rectify the damage, con-
tact a qualified specialist workshop. H
Environmental note
Check the tyre pressure regularly, at least
every 14 days.
The recommended tyre pressures for various
operating conditions can be found in the tyre
pressure table on the fuel filler flap
(Y page 154).
Operation with an emergency spare wheel:
information on operation with an emergency
spare wheel can be found in the general notes in the "Emergency spare wheel" section
(Y page 324).
Operation with a trailer: the applicable value
for the rear axle is the maximum value stated in the tyre pressure table inside the fuel filler flap.
Additionally, the tyre pressure table may also
state tyre pressures for different load condi-
tions. These are defined in the table as different numbers of passengers and amounts of lug-
gage. The actual number of seats may vary; for
more information, please refer to the vehicle
documents.
If tyre sizes are not specified, the tyre pressures
stated on the tyre pressure table apply for all
tyres approved at the factory for this vehicle. If a tyre size precedes a tyre pressure, the fol-
lowing tyre pressure information is valid only for that tyre size.
Use a suitable pressure gauge to check the tyre
pressure. The outer appearance of a tyre does
not give any reliable indication of the tyre pres-
sure. On vehicles fitted with the electronic tyre
pressure monitor, you can also check the tyre
pressure using the on-board computer.
If possible, correct tyre pressures only when the
tyres are cold.
The tyres are cold:
R if the vehicle has been parked with the tyres
out of direct sunlight for at least three hours
and
R if the vehicle has been driven less than
1.6 km
Depending on the ambient temperature, the
vehicle speed and the load on the tyres, the tyre temperature and thus the tyre pressure changes by approximately 10 kPa (0.1 bar/1.5 psi) per
10 †. Take this into account when checking the
pressure of warm tyres. Correct the tyre pres-
sure only if it is too low for the current operating
condition.
Driving with a tyre pressure that is too high or
too low can:
R shorten the service life of the tyres
R cause increased tyre damage
R have a negative effect on handling character-
istics and thus driving safety (e.g. aquaplan-
ing)
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. 314

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 313).
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 (in the vehi-
cle or on the roof)

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 Serv.
Serv. menu of the multifunction
display, see illustration (example). For information on the message display, refer to
the "Checking the tyre pressure electronically"
section (Y page 316).
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 313). 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 317). 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 313).
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 239).
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-
way radios) that may be being operated in or
near the vehicle.

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

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.
