Blow
nfuses must be replace dwith fuses of
the same rating, which you can recognise by
the colour and value. The fuse ratings are lis-
ted in the fuse allocation chart. AMercedes-
BenzS ervice Centr ewill be happy to advise
you.
If the newly inserted fuse also blows, have the
cause traced and rectified at aqualified spe-
cialist workshop, e.g. aMercedes-Benz
Service Centre.
! Only use fuses that have been approved
for Mercedes-Benz vehicles and which
have the correct fuse ratin gfor the system
concerned. Otherwise, componentsors ys-
tems could be damaged. Befor
echanging afuse
X Park the vehicle and apply the parking
brake.
X Switc hoff all electrical consumers.
X Remove the key from the ignition lock.
The fuses are located in various fuse boxes:
R fuse box on the driver's side of the dash-
board
R fuse box in the engin ecompartment on the
left-hand side of the vehicle, when viewed
in the direction of travel
R fuse box in the boot on the right-hand side
of the vehicle, when viewed in the direction
of travel
The fuse allocation chart is located in the
vehicle tool kit (Y page 295)inthe stowage
compartment under the boot floor. Dashboar

air loss. G
WARNING

is kept open continuously, which may lead to
air loss. G
WARNING
Should the tyre pressure drop repeatedly:
R chec kthe tyre for foreign bodies.
R check whether the wheel is losing air or the
valve is leaking.
R make sure that only avalve cap approved
by Mercedes-Ben zisfitted on the tyre
valve.
Tyre pressures that are too low have anega-
tive effect on vehicle safety, which could lead
you to cause an accident.
If possible, only correct tyre pressures when
the tyres are cold. The tyres are cold when
the vehicle has been parked for at least three
hours or has been driven less than 1.5 km.
Depending on the ambient temperature, the
speed you are driving at and the load on the
tyres, the tyre temperature and thus the tyre
pressure may change by approximately
10 kPa (0.1 bar/1.5 psi) per 10 †. Take this
into account when checking the pressure of
warm tyres and only correct it if it is too low
for the current operating conditions.
Driving with 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 anegative effect on handling charac-
teristics and thus the driving safety (e.g. by
causing aquaplaning)
i The tyre pressure values given for low
loads are minimum values which offer you
good ride 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. H
Environmental note
Check the tyre pressure regularly,atl east
every 14 days. Tyrep
ressur eloss warning system
Important safety notes While the vehicle is in motion, the tyre pres-
sure loss warning system monitors the set
tyre pressure using the rotational speed of
the wheels. This enables the system to detect
significant pressure loss in
atyre. If the speed
of rotation of awheel changes as aresult of
al oss of pressure, acorresponding warning
message will appearint he multifunction dis-
play. G
WARNING
The tyre pressure loss warning system does
not warn you of an incorrectly set tyre pres-
sure. The table on the inside of the fuel filler
flap will help you decide whether the tyre
pressures should be corrected.
The tyre pressure loss warning system does
not replace the need to regularly check your
vehicle's tyre pressures, since 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 monitor is not able to warn
you of asudden loss of pressure, e.g. if the
tyre is penetrated by aforeign object.
In the event of asudden loss of pressure, bring
the vehicle to ahalt by braking carefully. Do
not make any sudden steering movements
when doing so.
The function of the tyre pressure loss warning
system is limited or delayed if:
R snow chains are fitted to your vehicle's
tyres.
R road conditionsa re wintry.
R you are driving on sand or gravel.
R you adopt avery sporty driving style (cor-
nering at high speeds or driving with high
rates of acceleration).
R you are towing avery heavy or large trailer.
R you are driving with aheavy load (in the
vehicle or on the roof). 322
