The screwdriver and the towing eye
are located in a box below the floor
cover in the load compartment.
Tyre repair kit 3 199.
Wheels and tyres
Tyre condition, wheel condition Drive over edges slowly and at right
angles if possible. Driving over sharp
edges can cause tyre and wheel
damage. Do not trap tyres on the kerb when parking.
Regularly check the wheels for
damage. Seek the assistance of a
workshop in the event of damage or
unusual wear.
Winter tyres
Winter tyres improve driving safety at temperatures below 7 °C and shouldtherefore be fitted on all wheels.
In accordance with country-specific
regulations, affix the speed sticker in
the driver's field of view.
All tyre sizes are permitted as winter
tyres 3 230.Tyre designations
E.g. 195/65 R 15 91 T195:tyre width, mm65:cross-section ratio (tyre height
to tyre width), %R:belt type: RadialRF:type: RunFlat15:wheel diameter, inches91:load index e.g. 95 is equivalent

Speed code letter:
Q:up to 160 km/hS:up to 180 km/hT:up to 190 km/hH:up to 210 km/hV:up to 240 km/hW:up to 270 km/h
Choose a tyre appropriate for the
maximum speed of this vehicle. Refer to the EEC Certificate of Conformity
provided with the vehicle or other
national registration documents.
Optional equipment could reduce the
maximum speed of the vehicle.

196Vehicle careDirectional tyres
Directional tyres should be mounted so that they rotate in the correct
direction. The proper rotation
direction is indicated by a symbol
(e.g. an arrow) on the sidewall.
Tyre pressure
Check the pressure of cold tyres at
least every 14 days and before any
long journey.
Do not forget the spare wheel.The tyre pressure information label
on the left door frame indicates the
original equipment tyres and the
correspondent tyre pressures.
The tyre pressure data refers to cold
tyres. It applies to summer and winter tyres.
Always inflate the spare tyre to the
pressure specified for full load.
The ECO tyre pressure serves to
achieve the smallest amount of fuel
consumption possible.
Incorrect tyre pressures will impair
safety, vehicle handling, comfort and
fuel economy and will increase tyre
wear.
The tyre pressure table indicates the
required pressure for a specific tyre
size only and shows all possible tyre
combinations 3 230.
For the tyres approved for this
vehicle, refer to the EEC Certificate of
Conformity provided with the vehicle
or other national registration
documents.
The driver is responsible for correct
adjustment of tyre pressure.9 Warning
If the pressure is too low, this can
result in considerable tyre warm-
up and internal damage, leading to tread separation and even to tyre
blow-out at high speeds.
9 Warning
For specific tyres the
recommended tyre pressure as
shown in the tyre pressure table may exceed the maximum tyre
pressure as indicated on the tyre.
Never exceed the maximum tyre
pressure as indicated on the tyre.
Temperature dependency
The tyre pressure depends on the
temperature of the tyre. During
driving, tyre temperature and
pressure increase. Tyre pressure
values provided on the tyre
information label and tyre pressure
chart are valid for cold tyres, which means at 20 °C.

198Vehicle careAfter initialisation system
automatically calibrates to new tyre
pressures during driving. After longer
drive the system will adopt and
monitor new pressures.
Always check tyre pressure with cold
tyres.
System has to be reinitialised when: ● tyre pressure has been changed
● load condition has been changed
● wheels have been swapped or exchanged
The system will not warn instantaneously on a tyre blow out or
a rapid deflation. This is due to
required calculation time.
Tread depth
Check tread depth at regular
intervals.
Tyres should be replaced for safety
reasons at a tread depth of 2-3 mm
(4 mm for winter tyres).
For safety reasons, it is
recommended that the tread depth of
the tyres on one axle should not vary
by more than 2 mm.
The legally permissible minimum tread depth (1.6 mm) has been
reached when the tread has worn
down as far as one of the tread wear
indicators (TWI). Their position is
indicated by markings on the
sidewall.
If there is more wear at the front than
the rear, swap round front wheels and rear wheels periodically. If directional tyres are mounted, ensure that thedirection of rotation of the wheels
remains the same.
Tyres age, even if they are not used.
We recommend tyre replacement
every 6 years.
Changing tyre and wheel
size
If tyres of a different size than those
fitted at the factory are used, it may be necessary to reprogramme the tyre
deflation detection system and make
other vehicle modifications.
Tyre deflation detection system
3 197.
Have the label with tyre pressures
replaced.9 Warning
The use of unsuitable tyres or
wheels may lead to accidents and will invalidate the vehicle
operating permit.
Wheel covers
Wheel covers and tyres that are
factory approved for the respective
vehicle and comply with all of the
relevant wheel and tyre combination
requirements must be used.
If the wheel covers and tyres used are
not factory approved, the tyres must
not have a rim protection ridge.

Vehicle care203There are two different types of
wheels with two different bolts and
tightening torques.
Tightening torque for alloy wheels is
100 Nm.
Tightening torque for steel wheels is
115 Nm.
9 Warning
Ensure to use always the correct
wheel bolts if changing the
wheels. When installing the spare
wheel, the bolts for alloy wheels can also be used.
Jacking positions
The jacking positions shown refer to
the use of lifting arms and accessory
jacks used for changing winter /
summer tyres.
Rear arm position of the lifting
platform centrically under the relevant vehicle jacking point.
Front arm position of the lifting
platform centrically under the relevant vehicle jacking point.
Spare wheel The spare wheel can be classified as
a temporary spare wheel depending
on the size compared to the other
mounted wheels and country
regulations. In this case a permissible maximum speed applies, even
though no label at the spare wheel
indicates this.

204Vehicle careCaution
The use of a spare wheel that issmaller than the other wheels or in combination with winter tyres
could affect driveability. Have the defective tyre replaced as soon as
possible.
The spare wheel is located in the load
compartment:
1. Open the floor cover.
2. The spare wheel is secured with a
wing nut. Unscrew nut and take
out the spare wheel.
There is a box with tools in the
right wall of the load compartment.
Vehicle tools 3 194.
3. When, after a wheel change, no wheel is placed in the spare wheelwell, fasten the wing nut and close
the floor cover.
4. After a wheel change back to a full
size wheel, place the spare wheel
outside up in the well and secure
with the wing nut.
Temporary spare wheelCaution
If driving with a temporary spare
wheel, active emergency braking
has to deactivated.
Only mount one temporary spare
wheel. The permissible maximum
speed on the label on the temporary
spare wheel is only valid for the
factory-fitted tyre size.
Do not drive faster than 80 km/h. Take
curves slowly. Do not use for a long
period of time.
Fitting the spare wheel
Make the preparations given for
wheel changing 3 202 and observe
the following information:
● Never change more than one wheel at once.
● Use the jack only to change wheels in case of puncture, not
for seasonal winter or summer
tyre change.
● The jack is maintenance-free.
1. Disengage wheel bolt caps with a
screwdriver and remove.
Steel wheels with cover: Pull off
the wheel cover.
Alloy wheels: Disengage wheel
bolt caps with a screwdriver and
remove. To protect the wheel,
place a soft cloth between the
screwdriver and the alloy wheel.

212Vehicle careIce residues, pollution and continuouswiping on dry windows will damage or
even destroy the wiper blades.
Glass panel
Never clean with solvents or abrasive agents, fuels, aggressive media
(e.g. paint cleaner, acetone-
containing solutions etc.), acidic or
highly alkaline media or abrasive
pads.
Wheels and tyres Do not use high-pressure jet
cleaners.
Clean rims with a pH-neutral wheel
cleaner.
Rims are painted and can be treated
with the same agents as the body.
Paintwork damage Rectify minor paintwork damage witha touch-up pen before rust forms.
Have more extensive damage or rust areas repaired by a workshop.Underbody
Some areas of the vehicle underbody
have a PVC undercoating while other critical areas have a durable
protective wax coating.
After the underbody is washed, check
the underbody and have it waxed if
necessary.
Bitumen / rubber materials could damage the PVC coating. Have
underbody work carried out by a
workshop.
Before and after winter, wash the
underbody and have the protective
wax coating checked.
Towing equipment
Do not clean the coupling ball bar with a steam-jet or high-pressure jet
cleaner.Interior care
Interior and upholstery Only clean the vehicle interior,
including the instrument panel fascia
and panelling, with a dry cloth or
interior cleaner.
Clean the leather upholstery with
clear water and a soft cloth. In case of
heavy soiling, use leather care.
The instrument cluster and the
displays should only be cleaned using
a soft damp cloth. If necessary use a weak soap solution.
Clean fabric upholstery with a
vacuum cleaner and brush. Remove
stains with an upholstery cleaner.
Clothing fabrics may not be
colourfast. This could cause visible
discolourations, especially on light-
coloured upholstery. Removable
stains and discolourations should be
cleaned as soon as possible.
Clean seat belts with lukewarm water or interior cleaner.
