If snow chains aremount edon the rear
wheels, thesnow chains couldcause abrasion
to the vehicle bodyortochassis compon ents.
This could cause damage tothe vehicle orthe
tires. There isarisk ofan accident .
To avoid hazardous situations:
R never mount snowchains onthe rear
wheels
R only mount snowchains inpairs onthe
fron twheels.
! On
some tiresizes there isnot enough space
for snow chains. Toavoid damage tothe vehi-
cle ortires, observe the"Wheel andtirecom-
bination s"sect ionunder "Tiresandwheels".
For safety reasons, Mercedes- Benzrecom-
mends thatyouonly usesnow chains thathave
been specially approved foryour vehicle by
Mercedes- Benz,or are ofacorr esponding
standard ofquality. Formore inform ation,
please contactaqualified specialist workshop.
If you inten dto mount snowchains, pleasebear
the following pointsinmind:
R Sno wchains maynotbemount edon all
wheel/tire combinations.Permissible wheel-

R Only usesnow chains whendriving onroads

snow chains assoon aspossible whenyou
come toaroad thatisnot snow-c overed.
R Local regulations mayrestr ictthe use ofsnow
chains. Observe theappropriate regulationsif
you wish tomount snowchains.
R Do not exceed themaximum permissible

If you fitunsui table accessorie sonto tire

Use asuita blepressu regau getocheck thetire

can bechecked inthe on-board computer. The
tiretemperature andpressu reincrease
when thevehicle isin motion. Thisisdepende nt
on the driving speedandtheload .
Therefore, youshoul donly correct tirepres-

The tires arecold:
R ifthe vehicle hasbeen parked withthetires
out ofdirect sunlightfor atlea stthree hours

R ifthe vehicle hasbeen driven lessthan 1mile
(1.6 km)
The tiretemperature changesdependingon the
outsid etemperature ,the vehicle speedandthe
tire load .If the tire temperature changesby
18 ‡(10 †), thetire pressu rechanges by
appro ximately 10kPa (0.1 bar/ 1.5psi).Take
this into account whenchecking thepressu reof
