Risk of accident
The vehicle can be braked when DISTRONIC
PLUS is activated. For this reason, deactivate
DISTRONIC PLUS if the vehicle is to be set in
motion by other means (e.g. in acar wash or
by towing).
You can activate Distronic Plus in the follow-
ing circumstances:
R after the engine has been running for about
two minutes
R if the parking brake is not applied
R if ESP ®
is activated
R if the automatic transmission* is in position

can only activate Distronic Plus if the vehicle
in front has been detected and is shown in the
multi-function display.Ift he vehicle in front is
not shown in the multi-function display and is
no longer being detected, because it has
changed lanes, for example, Distronic Plus is
deactivated and atone sounds. X

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 steerin gmovements
when doing so.
The function of the tyre pressure loss warning
system is limited or delaye dif:
R snow chains are fitted to your vehicle's
tyres.
R road conditions are 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).
Restarting the tyrep ressureloss warn-
ing system Restart the tyre pressure loss warning system
if you have:
R
changed the tyre pressure
R changed the wheels or tyres
R fitted new wheels or tyres
X Before restarting, consult the table of tyre
pressures on the inside of the fuel filler flap
to ensure that the tyre pressure in all four
tyres is set correctly for the respective
operating conditions.
X Observe the notes in the section on tyre
pressures (Y page 186). G
Risk of accident
The tyre pressure loss warning system can
only give reliable warnings if you have set the
correc ttyre pressure.
If an incorrect tyre pressure is set, these
incorrect values will be monitored.
At yre with insufficien tpressure results in
vehicle instability when driving, thus increas-
ing the risk of an accident.
X Make sure that the key is in position 2in
the ignition lock.
In the multi-function display you will see the
standard display (Y page 108).
X Press the 0040or003E button to select the

Press the 0064button.
The tyre pressure values stored at the last
restart will continue to be monitored. Interchanging the wheels
G
Risk of accident
Interchange the fron tand rear wheels only if
they have the same dimensions :for example
size, offset ,etc.
After awheel is changed, have the tightening
torque checked at aspecialist workshop that
has the necessary specialist knowledge and
tools to carry out the work required.
Mercedes-Benz recommends that you use a
Mercedes-Benz Servic eCentre for this pur-
pose. In particular, work relevant to safety or
on safety-related systems must be carried out
at aq ualified specialist workshop.
The wheels could work loose if they are not
tightened to atorque of 130 Nm.
For safety reasons, Mercedes-Benz recom-
mends that you only use wheel bolts of the
correc tsize which have been approved for
Mercedes-Benz vehicles.
The wear patterns on the fronta nd rear tyres
differ, depending on the operating conditions.
Interchange the wheels before aclear wear
patter nhas formed on the tyres. Frontt yres
typically wear more on the shoulders and the
rear tyres in the centre.
On vehicles that have the same size fronta nd
rear wheels you can interchange the wheels
every 5,000 km to 10,00 0kmdepending on
the degree of tyre wear. Do not reverse the
direction of tyre rotation.
Clean the contact surfaces of the wheel and
the brake disc thoroughly every time awheel
is interchanged. Check the tyre pressure and,
if necessary, restart the tyre pressure loss
warning system*. Winter driving
Points to remember
Have your vehicle winterproofed at aqualified
specialist workshop, e.g. at aMercedes-Benz
Servic eCentre, at the onset of winter.
Observe the notes in the "Changing awheel"
section (Y page 189). Winter tyres
Use winter tyres at temperatures below
+7 ˚C and in wintry road conditions. Only
winter tyres displaying the 004Dsnowflake
symbol in addition to the M+S markin gpro-
vide optimum grip in wintry road conditions.
Only these tyres will allow the ABS and ESP
driving systems to function optimally in win-
ter, as these tyres have been designed spe-
cifically for driving on snow.
Use winter tyres of the same make and tread
on all wheels to maintain safe handling char-
acteristics. G
Risk of accident
Winter tyres with atread depth of less than
4mmm ust be replaced immediately. They are
no longer suitable for winter use and can no
longer provide sufficient grip. This could
cause you to lose control of your vehicle and
cause an accident.
Always observe the maximum permissible
speed specified for the winter tyres you have
fitted. If you fit winter tyres which have a
lower maximum permissible speed than that
of the vehicle, affix an appropriate warning
sign in the driver's field of vision. This can be
obtained at aqualified specialist workshop,
e.g. from aMercedes-Benz Servic eCentre.
Under these circumstances, you should also
restrict the maximum speed of the vehicle
using permanen tSpeedtronic 37
to the maxi-
mum permissible speed for the winter tyres
(Y page 135).
