gwiths ummer tyres
At temperature sbelo w+ 7† ,summer tyres lose
elasticity and therefore traction and braking
power. Change th etyres on your vehicle to
M+ Styres. Using summer tyres at ver ycold
temperature scould cause tears to form,
thereby damagin gthe tyres permanently.
Mercedes-Ben zcanno taccept responsibilit yfor
this typ eofdamage. G
WARNING
Damaged tyre scan caus etyre inflation pres-
sure loss. As aresult, you coul dlose control of
yourv ehicle. There is arisk of accident.
Check the tyres regularl yfor signs of damage
and replace any damaged tyres immediately. M+S tyres
G
WARNING
M+S tyres with atyre tread depth of less than
4mma re not suitable for use in winter as they
do not provid esufficient traction. There is a
risk of accident.
M+S tyres with atread depth of less than
4mmm ust be replaced. G
WARNING
The whee lortyre size as wellast he tyre type
of the spar ewhee land the whee ltobe
replaced may differ .Driving characteristics
can be severely impaired when you fit the
spar ewheel. There is arisk of an accident.
To prevent risks:
R adapt yourd riving style accordingly and
drive carefully
R never fit more than one spar ewhee lthat
differ sfrom the whee ltobechanged
R only use aspar ew hee lthat differ sfrom the
whee ltobec hanged for abriefp eriod
R do not switch ESP ®
off
R have aspar ew hee lofad ifferent size
replaced at the neares tqualified specialist
workshop. You must make sure that the wheel and tyre dimensions as wel
lasthe
tyr etype are correct.
Do not exceed amaximum speed of 80 km/h if
as pare wheel of adifferen tsizeisf itted.
At temperatures below +7 †, use winter tyres or all-season tyres. Bot htypes of tyr eare identified
by th eM+S marking.
Only winter tyres bearin gthe i snowflake
symbo linaddition to th eM+S marking provide
th eb est possible grip in wintry road conditions.
Only these tyres will allow driving safet ysys-
tem ssuch as AB Sand ESP ®
to function opti-
mally in winter. These tyres have been devel-
oped specifically for driving in snow.
Use M+S tyres of th esame mak eand tread on all
wheels to maintain safe handling characteris-
tics.
Always observe th emaximum permissible
speed specified for th eM+S tyres you have fit-
ted.
If you fit M+S tyres that have alower maximum
permissible speed than that of th evehicle, affix
an appropriat ewarning label in th edriver's field
of vision. This can be obtained at aqualified
specialist workshop.
When you have fitted th eM+S tyres:
X Chec kthe tyrep ressures (Y page 238).
X Restart th etyrep ressure monitor
(Y page 241). Snow chains
G
WARNING
If you drive too fas twith snow chains fitted,
they may snap. As aresult, you coul dinjure
others and damage the vehicle. There is arisk
of an accident.
Observe the maximu mpermissible spee dfor
operation with snow chains.
! Before fitting the snow chains, check them
for damage. Damaged or worn snow chains
may snap and damage the following compo-
nents:

You can fin dinformation on what to do in the
event of aflat tyr eunder "Breakdown assis-
tance" (Y page 224). Interchanging th
ewheels G
WARNING
Interchangin gthe front and rear wheels may
severely impair the driving characteristics if
the wheels or tyres have different dimensions. The whee lbrakes or suspension components
may alsobed amaged. There is arisk of acci-
dent.
Interchange front and rear wheels only if the
wheels and tyres are of the same dimensions.
! On vehicles fitted with
atyre pressure mon-
itor, electronic components are located in the wheel.
Tyre-fitting tools should not be appliedint he
area of the valve ,asthis coul ddamage the
electronic components.
Only have tyres changed at aqualified spe-
cialist workshop.
Interchanging front and rear wheels of differing
dimensions can render the genera loperating
permi tinvalid.
Always pay attention to the instructions and
safety notes under "Changing awheel"
(Y page2 43). The wear patterns on the front and rear tyres
diffe
rdepending on the operating conditions.
Interchange the wheels before aclear wear pat-
tern has formed on the tyres. Frontt yres typi-
cally wear more on the shoulders, while rear
tyres wear more in the centre.
On vehicles that have front and rear wheels of
the same size, you can interchange the wheels
every 5,000 to 10,00 0kmd epending on the
degree of tyre wear. Ensure that the direction of
rotation is maintained.
Clean the contact surfaces of the wheel and the
brake disc thoroughly every time awheel is
interchanged. Check the tyre pressure and reac-
tivate the tyre pressure monitor if necessary
(Y page 241). Direction of rotation
Tyres with aspecifie ddirection of rotation have
additional benefits, e.g. if there is ariskofa qua-
planing. You will only gain these benefit sifthe
correc tdirection of rotation is observed.
An arrow on th esidewall of th etyrei nd icates its
correc tdirection of rotation.
You may fit th espar ewhee lagainst th edirection
of rotation .Observ ethe time restriction on use
as well as th espeed limitation specifie donthe

Storet yres that are not being used in acool, dry

WARNING
If yo uremove the spar ewhee lfrom the spare
whee lbracket, the weight distributio nofthe
vehicl echanges .Ifyou have already raised
the vehicle, the jack coul dtip over. There is a
risk of injury.
Remove the spar ewhee lfrom the spar ewheel
bracket before raising the vehicle. Changing

The antifreeze/corrosion inhibitor concentra-
tion in the engine cooling system should:
R be at least 50%. This will protec tthe engine
cooling system against freezin gdown to
approximately -37 †.
R not exceed 55% (antifreez eprotection down
to -45 †). Heat will otherwise not be dissipa-
ted as effectively.
Mercedes-Benz recommends an antifreeze/
corrosion inhibitor in accordanc ewith MB Spec-
ifications for Servic eProducts 310.1.
i When the vehicle is first delivered, it is filled
with acoolant mixture that ensures adequate
antifreeze and corrosion protection.
i The coolant is checked at specified intervals
at aq ualified specialist workshop. Windscreen and headlamp cleaning

WARNING
If windscreen washer concentrate comes into contact with hot components of the engine or
the exhaust system, it can ignite. There is a
risk of fire and injury.
Make sure the windscreen washer concen-
trate does not come into contact with the filler neck.
! Do not use distille
dorde-ionised water in
the washer flui dreservoir. Otherwise, the
leve lsensor may be damaged.
! Only the washer fluids SummerFi
tand Win-
terFit can be mixed. Otherwise, the spraying
nozzles coul dbecome blocked.
Do not use distilledord e-ionised water.Other-
wise, the leve lsensor may give afalser eading.
When handling washer fluid, observe the impor- tant safety notes on service products
(Y page2 50).
At temperatures above freezing:
X Fill the washer flui dreservoir with amixture of
water and washer fluid, e.g. MB SummerFit.
Mix 1part MB SummerFi tto100 parts water. At temperatures belo
wfreezing:
X Fillthe washe rfluid reservoi rwitham ixture of
water and washe rfluid ,e.g.MBW interFit.
For the correct mixing ratio ,refer to the infor-
matio nont he antifreeze reservoir.
i Add washe
rfluid concentrate ,e.g.MBS um-
merFit or MB WinterFit, to the washe rfluid all
year round. Vehicl
