sudden loss of pressure, bring the vehicle to a
halt by braking carefully. Avoid abrupt steering
movements.
The tire pressure monitor has a yellow warning
lamp in the instrument cluster for indicating
pressure loss or a malfunction. Whether the
warning lamp flashes or lights up indicates
whether a tire pressure is too low or the tire
pressure monitor is malfunctioning:
R if the warning lamp is lit continuously, the tire
pressure on one or more tires is significantly
too low. The tire pressure monitor is not mal- functioning.
R if the warning lamp flashes for approximately
a minute and then remains lit constantly, the
tire pressure monitor is malfunctioning.
In addition to the warning lamp, a message
appears in the multifunction display. Observe
the information on display messages
(Y page 268).
It may take up to ten minutes for a malfunction
of the tire pressure monitor to be indicated. A
malfunction will be indicated by the tire pres-
sure warning lamp flashing for approximately
one minute and then remaining lit. When the
malfunction has been rectified, the tire pressure warning lamp goes out after a few minutes of
driving.
The tire pressure values indicated by the on-
board computer may differ from those meas-
ured at a gas station with a pressure gauge. The
tire pressures shown by the on-board computer
refer to those measured at sea level. At high
altitudes, the tire pressure values indicated by a pressure gauge are higher than those shown by
the on-board computer. In this case, do not
reduce the tire pressures.
The operation of the tire pressure monitor can
be affected by interference from radio transmit- ting equipment (e.g. radio headphones, two-wayradios) that may be being operated in or near the
vehicle.

display message is shown instead of the tire
pressure display. The tire pressures are already being monitored.
If an emergency spare wheel is mounted, the
system may continue to show the tire pressure
of the wheel that has been removed for a few
minutes. Therefore, remember that the dis-
played tire pressure may not be the same as the
emergency spare wheel's current tire pressure.
Tire pressure monitor warning mes-
sages If the tire pressure monitor detects a pressure
loss in one or more tires, a warning message is
shown in the multifunction display. The yellow
tire pressure warning lamp then lights up.
R If the Please Correct Tire Pressure Please Correct Tire Pressure
message appears in the multifunction display, the tire pressure in at least one tire is too low.
The tire pressure must be corrected when the
opportunity arises.
R If the Check Tires Check Tires message appears in the
multifunction display, the tire pressure in at
least one tire has dropped significantly. The
tires must be checked.
R If the Warning Warning Tire

appears in the multifunction display, the tire
pressure in at least one tire has dropped sud-
denly. The tires must be checked.
Be sure to observe the instructions and safety
notes in the display messages in the "Tires" sec-
tion (Y page 268).
If the positions of the wheels on the vehicle are changed, the tire pressures may be displayed in
the wrong positions for a short time. This is rec-
tified after a few minutes of driving, and the tire pressures are displayed for the correct posi-
tions. Tire pressure

Restarting the tire pressure monitor
When you restart the tire pressure monitor, all
existing warning messages are deleted and the
warning lamps go out. The monitor uses the cur-
rently set tire pressures as the reference values
for monitoring. In most cases, the tire pressure
monitor will automatically detect the new refer- ence values after you have changed the tire
pressure. However, you can also set reference
values manually as described here. The tire
pressure monitor then monitors the new tire
pressure values.
X Set the tire pressure to the value recommen-
ded for the corresponding driving situation on the Tire and Loading Information placard on
the driver's side B-pillar (Y page 355).
You can find more tire pressure values for
various operating conditions in the tire pres-
sure table inside the fuel filler flap
(Y page 356).
X Make sure that the tire pressure is correct on
all four wheels.
X Make sure that the SmartKey is in position 0048

WARNING
Overloaded tires can overheat, causing a
blowout. Overloaded tires can also impair the steering and driving characteristics and lead
to brake failure. There is a risk of accident.
Observe the load rating of the tires. The load
rating must be at least half of the GAWR of
your vehicle. Never overload the tires by
exceeding the maximum load.
Two instruction labels on your vehicle show the maximum possible load.

limitation specified on the emergency spare
wheel.
Replace the tires after six years at the latest,
regardless of wear. This also applies to the
emergency spare wheel.
When you are driving with the collapsible spare wheel mounted, the tire pressure loss warning
system or the tire pressure monitor cannot func-
tion reliably. Only restart the tire pressure loss
warning system or tire pressure monitor when
the defective wheel has been replaced with a
new wheel.
Vehicles with tire pressure monitor: after
mounting an emergency spare wheel, the sys-
tem may still display the tire pressure of the
removed wheel for a few minutes. The value dis- played for the mounted emergency spare wheelis not the same as the current tire pressure of
the emergency spare wheel. Removing/stowing the emergency

Never refuel using:
R Diesel
R Gasoline with more than 10% ethanol by
volume, e.g. E15, E20, E85, E100
R Gasoline with more than 3% methanol by
volume, e.g. M15, M30, M85, M100
R Gasoline with metalliferous additives
Do not mix such fuels with the fuel recom-
mended for your vehicle.
! To ensure the longevity and full perform-
ance of the engine, only premium-grade
unleaded gasoline may be used.
If premium-grade unleaded gasoline is
unavailable and you have to refuel with regu-
lar unleaded gasoline, observe the following
precautions:
R Only fill the fuel tank to half full with regular
unleaded gasoline and add the rest as soon
as possible with premium-grade unleaded
gasoline.
R Do not drive at the maximum design speed.
R Avoid sudden acceleration and engine
speeds over 3000 rpm.
i For more information, please contact a
qualified specialist workshop or visit
http://www.mbusa.com (USA only).
As a temporary measure, if the recommended
fuel is not available, you may also use regular
unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of
87 AKI/91 RON. This may reduce engine per-
formance and increase fuel consumption. Avoid driving at full throttle and sudden acceleration.
Never refuel using gasoline with a lower AKI.
Information on refueling (Y page 156).
Additives ! Operating the engine with fuel additives
added later can lead to engine failure. Do not mix fuel additives with fuel. This does not
include additives for the removal and preven-
tion of residue buildup. gasoline must only be
mixed with additives recommended by
Mercedes-Benz. Comply with the instructions for use on the product label. More information
about recommended additives can be
obtained from any authorized Mercedes-Benz
Center.
Mercedes-Benz recommends that you use bran- ded fuels that have additives. The fuel quality available in some countries may
not be sufficient. Residue could build up in the
fuel injection system as a result. In such cases, and in consultation with an authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center, the fuel may be mixed
with the cleaning additive recommended by
Mercedes-Benz. You must observe the notes
and mixing ratios specified on the container. Engine oil
General notes !
Do not use engine oil or an oil filter with
specifications deviating from those expressly required for the prescribed service intervals.
Do not change the engine oil or oil filter in
order to set replacement intervals longer than
those prescribed. This could otherwise cause damage to the engine or exhaust gas after-
treatment.
Follow the instructions on the service interval display for changing the engine oil. This could
otherwise cause damage to the engine or
exhaust gas aftertreatment.
When handling engine oil, observe the important safety notes on service products (Y page 384).
The engine oils are matched to the performance of Mercedes-Benz engines and service intervals.
You should therefore only use engine oils and oil filters that are approved for vehicles with main-
tenance systems.
For a list of approved engine oils and oil filters,
consult an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center.
Alternatively, visit the website
http://bevo.mercedes-benz.com.

approved for your vehicle. 386
