Tirepressure monitoring system
Function ofthe tire pressure monitoring sys‐tem
\nDANGERRisk of accident duetoincor‐rect tire pressure
Every tire, includingthe spare (if provided),should bechecked when cold at least once amonth and inflatedtothe pressurerecom‐mendedbythevehicle manufacturer (seeTireand Loading Information placard ontheB-pillar onthe driver’sside orthe tire pres‐sure label onthe inside ofthe fuelfillerflapofyourvehicle). Ifyourvehicle has tires of adifferent sizethanthe size indicated ontheTireand Loading Information placard orthe
tire pressuretable,you needtodeterminethe proper tire pressureforthose tires.
As an added safetyfeature,yourvehicle hasbeen equipped with a tire pressure monitor‐ing system (TPMS)that illuminates a low tirepressure indicator lamp when one or more ofyour tires are significantly underinflated.Accordingly, ifthe low tire pressure indicatorlamp lights up,you shouldstop andcheckyour tires as soon as possible, and inflatethemtothe proper pressure. Driving on asignificantlyunderinflated tire causesthe tiretooverheat and can leadtotirefailure.Underinflation also increases fuel consump‐tion andreduces tire tread life, and mayaffectthevehicle's handling and braking abil‐ity. Please notethatthe TPMS is not a substi‐tutefor proper tire maintenance, and it isthedriver'sresponsibilitytomaintain correct tirepressure,even if underinflation has notreachedthe leveltotrigger illumination ofthe TPMS low tire pressure indicator lamp.
Yourvehicle has also been equipped with aTPMS malfunction indicatortoindicate when
the system is not operating properly. TheTPMS malfunction indicator is combined withthe low tire pressure indicator lamp. Whenthe system detects a malfunction,the indica‐tor lamp willflashfor approximatelya minuteandthenremain continuously illuminated.This sequence will continue upon subsequentvehiclestart-ups as long asthe malfunctionexists.
Whenthe malfunction indicator is illumina‐ted,the system may not be abletodetect orsignal low tire pressure as intended. TPMSmalfunctions may occurfor avariety ofrea‐sons, includingthe installation of incompati‐blereplacement or alternate tires or wheelsonthevehiclethat preventthe TPMS fromfunctioning properly.
Alwayscheckthe TPMS malfunctionwarninglamp afterreplacing one or more tires orwheels onyourvehicletoensurethatthereplacement or alternate tires and wheelsallowthe TPMStocontinuetofunction prop‐erly.

Thequality gradingassessment is madebythe manufacturerfollow‐ing specifications fromtheU.S. government. Thequalitygrade of a tire is imprinted onthe sidewall ofthe tire.
Recommended tire pressure:therecommen‐ded tire pressure isthe tire pressure specifiedforthe tires mountedtothevehicle atthefac‐tory.
The tire and informationtable containstherec‐ommended tire pressuresfor cold tires,the max‐imum permissible load andthe maximum per‐missiblevehicle speed.
The tire pressuretable containstherecommen‐ded tire pressuresfor cold tires undervariousoperating conditions, i.e. loading and/or speedofthevehicle.
Increasedvehicleweight duetooptionalequipment:the combinedweight of allstandardand optional equipmentavailableforthevehicle,
regardless of whether it is actually installed onthevehicle or not.
Rim:the part ofthe wheel on whichthe tire isinstalled.
GAWR (Gross AxleWeightRating):the GAWRisthe maximum permissible axle load. Theactual load on an axle must neverexceedthegrossaxleweightrating. The gross axleweightrating can befound onthevehicle identificationplate onthe B‑pillar onthe driver's side.
Speedrating:the speedrating is partofthe tireidentification. It specifiesthe speedrangeforwhich a tire is approved.
GVW (GrossVehicleWeight):the grossvehicleweight comprisestheweight ofthevehicleincluding fuel,tools,the spare wheel, accesso‐ries installed, occupants, luggage andthe trailerdrawbar noseweight, if applicable. Thegrossvehicleweight must notexceedthe grossvehicleweightratingGVWR as specified onthevehicleidentification plate onthe B‑pillar onthe driver'sside.

Mercedes-AMGvehicles:observethe notes inthe Supplement. Otherwise,you may notrecog‐nize dangers.
You can askfor informationregarding permittedwheel/tire combinations at an authorizedMercedes-Benz Center.
\nWARNINGRisk of accident duetoincor‐rect dimensions of wheels and tires
If wheels and tires ofthe wrong size areinstalled,the wheel brakes or wheel suspen‐sion components may be damaged.
Alwaysreplace wheels and tires withthosethat fulfillthe specifications ofthe original part.
Whenreplacing wheels, make suretofitthecorrect:

RModel
\nWARNINGRisk of injurythroughexceed‐ingthe specified tire loadrating orthepermissible speedrating
Exceedingthe specified tire loadrating orthe permissible speedrating may leadtotiredamageandtothe tires bursting.
Therefore, only use tire types and sizesapprovedforyourvehicle model.
Observethe tire loadrating and speedratingrequiredforyourvehicle.
NOTEVehicle and tire damagethroughtire types and sizesthat havenot beenapproved
For safetyreasons, onlyuse tires, wheelsand accessories which havebeen speciallyapprovedbyMercedes-Benzforyourvehicle.
These tires are specially adaptedtothe con‐
trol systems, such as ABS, ESP®and4MATIC, and marked asfollows:
RMO = Mercedes-Benz Original
RMOE = Mercedes-Benz Original Extended(run-flat tire onlyfor certain wheels)
RMO1 = Mercedes-Benz Original (only cer‐tain AMG tires)
Certaincharacteristics, such as handling,vehicle noise emissions, fuel consumption,etc. mayotherwise be adversely affected.Furthermore,other tire sizes couldresult inthe tiresrubbing againstthe body and axlecomponents when loaded. This couldresultin damagetothe tire orthevehicle.
Wheels and tires405

Thewear patterns onthe front andrear wheelsdiffer:
RFront wheelswear more onthe shoulder ofthe tire
RRear wheelswear more inthe center ofthetire
Onvehiclesthat havethe same size front andrear wheels,rotatethe wheels accordingtotheintervals inthe tire manufacturer'swarrantybook inyourvehicle documents. Ifthis is notavailable,rotatethe tiresevery3,000to6,000 miles (5,000to10,000 km),depending onthewear. Ensurethatthe directionofrotation is maintained.
It is imperativetoobservethe instructions andsafety notes on "Changing a wheel" when doingso Preparingthevehiclefor a wheelchange(→page 409).
