MOExtended tires (tires with run-flat
properties)
General notes With MOExtended tires (tires with run flat char-
acteristics), you can continue to drive you rv ehi-
cle even if there is at otal loss of pressure in one
or more tires. The affected tire must not show
any clearl yv isible damage.
You can recognize MOExtended tires by the
MOExtended marking which appears on the
sidewall of the tire. You wil lf ind this marking
next to the tire size designation, the load-bear-
ing capacity and the speed index ( Y
page 269).
MOExtended tires may only be used in conjunc-
tion with an active tire pressure loss warning
system or with an active tire pressure monitor.
If ap ressure loss warning message appears
in the multifunction display: R
observe the instructions in the display mes-
sages ( Y
page 196).R
check the tire for damage. R
if driving on, observe the following notes.
The driving distance possible in run-flat mode is
approximately 50 miles (80 km) when the vehi-
cle is partially laden and approximately 19 miles
(30 km) when the vehicle is full yl aden. In addition to the vehicle load ,t he driving dis-
tance possible depends upon: R
vehicle speed R
road condition R
outsid et emperature
The driving distance possible in run-flat mode
may be reduced by extreme driving conditions
or maneuvers, or it can be increased through a
moderate style of driving.
The driving distance possible in run-flat mode is
counted from the moment the tire pressure loss
warning appears in the multifunction display.
You must not exceed am aximum speed of
50 mph (80 km/h).
When replacing one or all tires, please observe
the following specifications for you rv ehicle's
tires: R
size R
type and R
the "MOExtended" mark
If at ire has gone flat and cannot be replaced
with aM OExtended tire, as tandard tire may be
used as at emporary measure. Make sure that
you use the proper size and type (summe ro r
winter tire).
Vehicle se quipped with MOExtended tires are
not equipped with aT IREFIT kit at the factory. It
is therefore recommended that you additionally
equi py ou rv ehicle with aT IREFIT kit if y ou mount
tires
that do not feature run-flat properties, e.g.
winter tires. AT IREFIT kit is available, for exam-
ple, from aq ualifie ds pecialist workshop.
Important safety notes
G WARNING
When driving in emergency mode, the driving
characteristics deteriorate, e.g. when corner-
ing, accelerating quickly and when braking.
There is ar isk of an accident.

Fuses
Important safety notes
G WARNING
If you manipulate or bridge af aulty fuse or if
you replace it with af use with ah igher amper-
age, the electric cables could be overloaded.
This could result in af ire. There is ar isk of an
accident and injury.
Alway sr eplace faulty fuses with the specified
new fuses having the correct amperage.
Blown fuses must be replaced with fuses of the
same rating, which you can recognize by the
color and value .T he fuse ratings are listed in the
fuse allocation chart.
The fuse allocation chart is located in the vehicle
tool kit in the stowage compartment under the
trunk floor ( Y
page 241).
If an ewly inserted fuse also blows, have the
cause traced and rectified at aq ualified special-
ist workshop, e.g. an authorized Mercedes-Benz
Center.
! Only use fuses that have been approved for
Mercedes-Benz vehicles and which have the
correct fuse rating for the system concerned.
Otherwise, component sors ystems could be
damaged.
! Make sure that no moisture can enter the
fuse box when the cover is open.
! When closing the cover, make sure that it is
lying correctly on the fuse box. Moisture seep-
ing in or dirt could otherwise impair the oper-
ation of the fuses.
The fuses in your vehicle serve to close down
faulty circuits. If af use blows, all the compo-
nent sont he circuit and their functions stop
operating. Fuses 253

Tire pressure monitor
General notes If at ire pressure monitor is installed, the vehi-
cle's wheels have sensors that monitor the tire
pressures in all four tires. The tire pressure mon-
itor warns you if the pressure drops in one or
more of the tires. The tire pressure monitor only
functions if the corresponding sensors are
installed in all wheels.
Information on tire pressures is displayed in the
multifunction display. After af ew minutes of
driving, the current tire pressure of each tire is
shown in the Serv. menu of the multifunction
display.
Example: current tire pressure display
For information on the message display, refer to
the "Checking the tire pressure electronically"
section ( Y

malfunction wil lbei ndicated 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 af ew minutes of
driving.
The tire pressure values indicated by the on-
board computer may differ from those meas-
ured at ag as station with ap ressure gauge. The
tire pressures shown by the on-board computer
refer to those measured at sea level .Ath igh
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 radi ot ransmit-
ting equipment (e.g. radi oh eadphones, two-way
radios) that may be being operated in or near the
vehicle.

tire pressure warning lamp then lights up. R
If the Please Correct Tire Pressure
messag ea ppears 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 messag ea ppears in the
multifunction display, the tire pressure in at
least one tire has droppe ds ignificantly. The
tires must be checked. R
If the Warning Tire Malfunction message
appears in the multifunction display, the tire
pressure in at least one tire has droppe ds ud-
denly .T he tires must be checked.
Observe the instructions and safety notes in the
display messages in the "Tires" section
( Y

If the wheel positions on the vehicle are rotated,
the tire pressures may be displaye df or the
wrong positions for as hort time. This is rectified
after af ew minutes of driving, and the tire pres-
sures are displaye df or the correct positions.
Restarting the tire pressure monitor When you restart the tire pressure monitor, all
existing warning messages are deleted and the
warning lamp sgoo ut. The monitor uses the cur-
rently set tire pressures as the reference values
for monitoring. In most cases, the tire pressure
monitor wil la utomatically detect the new refer-
ence values after you have changed the tire
pressure. However, you can also define refer-
ence values manually as describe dh ere. The tire
pressure monitor then monitors the new tire
pressure values. X
