Vehicle care239If w illuminates at lower temperatures
and extinguishes after some driving,
this could be an indicator for
approaching a low tyre pressure
condition. Check tyre pressure.
Vehicle messages 3 123.
If the tyre pressure must be reduced
or increased, switch off ignition.
Only mount wheels with pressure
sensors, otherwise the tyre pressure
will not be displayed and w
illuminates continuously.
A temporary spare wheel is not
equipped with pressure sensors. The
tyre pressure monitoring system is
not operational for these wheels.
Control indicator w illuminates. For
the further three wheels the system remains operational.
The use of commercially available
liquid tyre repair kits can impair the
function of the system. Factory-
approved repair kits can be used.
Operating electronic devices or being
close to facilities using similar wave
frequencies could disrupt the tyre
pressure monitoring system.Each time the tyres are replaced, tyre pressure monitoring system sensors
must be dismounted and serviced.
For the screwed sensor: replace
valve core and sealing ring. For
clipped sensor: replace complete
valve stem.
Vehicle loading status
Adjust tyre pressure to load condition according to the tyre information label
or tyre pressure chart 3 273, and
select the appropriate setting in the Tyre load menu in the Driver
Information Centre 3 117. This
setting is the reference for the tyre
pressure warnings.
The Tyre load menu only appears if
the vehicle is at a standstill and the
parking brake is applied. On vehicles
with automatic transmission the
selector lever has to be in P.
Select Tyre load page under Vehicle
Information Menu ? in the Driver
Information Centre 3 117.
Select: ● Light for comfort pressure up to
3 people.
● Eco for Eco pressure up to
3 people.
● Max for full load.
Tyre pressure sensor matching
process
Each tyre pressure sensor has a
unique identification code. The
identification code must be matched
to a new wheel position after rotating

240Vehicle carethe wheels or exchanging the
complete wheel set and if one or more tyre pressure sensors were replaced.The tyre pressure sensor matching
process should also be performed
after replacing a spare wheel with a
road wheel containing the tyre
pressure sensor.
The malfunction light w and the
warning message or code should extinguish at the next ignition cycle.The sensors are matched to the
wheel positions, using a relearn tool,
in the following order: left side front
wheel, right side front wheel, right
side rear wheel and left side rear
wheel. The turn signal light at the
current active position is illuminated
until sensor is matched.
Consult your workshop for service.
There are two minutes to match the
first wheel position, and five minutes
overall to match all four wheel
positions. If it takes longer, the
matching process stops and must be
restarted.
The tyre pressure sensor matching
process is:
1. Apply the parking brake.2. Turn the ignition on.
3. On vehicles with automatic transmission: set the selector
lever to P.
On vehicles with manual
transmission: select neutral.
4. Press MENU on the turn signal
lever to select the Vehicle
Information Menu ? in the
Driver Information Centre.
5. Turn the adjuster wheel to scroll to
the tyre pressure menu.6. Press SET/CLR to begin the
sensor matching process. A
message requesting acceptance
of the process should be
displayed.
7. Press SET/CLR again to confirm
the selection. The horn sounds
twice to indicate the receiver is in
relearn mode.
8. Start with the left side front wheel.
9. Place the relearn tool against the tyre sidewall, near the valve stem.Then press the button to activate
the tyre pressure sensor. A horn
chirp confirms that the sensor
identification code has been
matched to this wheel position.
10. Proceed to the right side front wheel, and repeat the procedure
in Step 9.
11. Proceed to the right side rear wheel, and repeat the procedure
in Step 9.
12. Proceed to the left side rear wheel, and repeat the procedure
in Step 9. The horn sounds twice
to indicate the sensor
identification code has been

242Vehicle careWheel covers must not impair brake
cooling.9 Warning
Use of unsuitable tyres or wheel
covers could lead to sudden
pressure loss and thereby
accidents.
Vehicles with steel wheels: When
using locking wheel nuts, do not
attach wheel covers.
Tyre chains
Tyre chains are only permitted on the
front wheels.
Always use fine mesh chains that add no more than 10 mm to the tyre tread
and the inboard sides (including chain lock).9 Warning
Damage may lead to tyre blowout.
Tyre chains are only permitted on
tyres of size 215/60 R16 and
225/50 R17.
The use of tyre chains is not permitted on the temporary spare wheel.
Tyre repair kit
Minor damage to the tyre tread can be
repaired with the tyre repair kit.
Do not remove foreign bodies from
the tyres.
Tyre damage exceeding 4 mm or that
is at the tyre's sidewall cannot be
repaired with the tyre repair kit.
9 Warning
Do not drive faster than 80 km/h.
Do not use for a lengthy period.
Steering and handling may be
affected.
If you have a flat tyre:
Apply the parking brake and engage
first gear, reverse gear or P.
The tyre repair kit is on the left side in
the load compartment behind a cover.
1. Take the tyre repair kit from the compartment.
2. Remove the compressor.

Vehicle care245Note
The driving characteristics of the
repaired tyre are severely affected, therefore have this tyre replaced.
If unusual noise is heard or the
compressor becomes hot, turn
compressor off for at least
30 minutes.
The built-in safety valve opens at a
pressure of seven bar.
Note the expiry date of the kit. After
this date its sealing capability is no
longer guaranteed. Pay attention to
storage information on sealant
bottle.
Replace the used sealant bottle. Dispose of the bottle as prescribed
by applicable laws.
The compressor and sealant can be
used from approx. -30 °C.
The adapters supplied can be used
to pump up other items e.g.
footballs, air mattresses, inflatable
dinghies etc. They are located on the underside of the compressor. To
remove, screw on compressor air
hose and withdraw adapter.Wheel changing
Some vehicles are equipped with a
tyre repair kit instead of a spare wheel
3 242.
Make the following preparations and
observe the following information:
● Park the vehicle on a level, firm and non-skid surface. The front
wheels must be in the straight-
ahead position.
● Apply the parking brake and engage first gear, reverse gear or
P .
● Remove the spare wheel 3 247.
● 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. ● If the ground on which the vehicle
is standing is soft, a solid board
(max. 1 cm thick) should be
placed under the jack.
● Take heavy objects out of the vehicle before jacking up.● No people or animals may be in the vehicle when it is jacked-up.
● Never crawl under a jacked-up vehicle.
● Do not start the vehicle when it is
raised on the jack.

Avoid contact of the battery with
eyes, skin, fabrics and painted
surfaces. The fluid contains
sulphuric acid which can cause
injuries and damage in the event
of direct contact.
● Never expose the vehicle battery
to naked flames or sparks.
● A discharged vehicle battery can already freeze at a temperature
of 0 °C. Defrost the frozen vehicle
battery before connecting jump leads.
● Wear eye protection and protective clothing when
handling a battery.
● Use a booster vehicle battery with the same voltage (12 Volt).
Its capacity (Ah) must not be
much less than that of the
discharged vehicle battery.
● Use jump leads with insulated terminals and a cross section of
at least 16 mm 2
(25 mm 2
for
diesel engines).
● Do not disconnect the discharged
vehicle battery from the vehicle.
● Switch off all unnecessary electrical consumers.
● Do not lean over the battery during jump starting.
● Do not allow the terminals of one
lead to touch those of the other
