Risk of accident
The wheel dimensions and tyre size of the
"Minispare" emergency spare wheel *are dif-
ferent from those of the damaged wheel.
Your vehicle's handling characteristics will
change when a "Minispare" emergency spare
wheel* is fitted. Adapt your style of driving
accordingly.
The "Minispare" emergency spare wheel*
may only be used for a short time. Do not
exceed the maximum speed of 80 km/h and
do not deactivate ESP ®
.
Never drive the vehicle with more than one
"Minispare" emergency spare wheel* fitted. G
Risk of accident
Have the "Minispare" emergency spare
wheel* or the spare wheel* replaced with a
new wheel as soon as possible at a qualified
specialist workshop which has the necessary
specialist knowledge and tools to carry out
the work required. Mercedes-Benz recom-
mends that you use a Mercedes-Benz Service
Centre for this purpose. In particular, work
relevant to safety or on safety-related sys-
tems must be carried out at a qualified spe-
cialist workshop.

systems, such as ABS or ESP

, and are
marked as follows:
R MO = Mercedes-Benz Original
R MOE = Mercedes-Benz Original Exten-
ded* (with run-flat characteristics)
If you use other tyres, Mercedes-Benz can-
not accept any responsibility for damage
which may occur. Information about tyres
can be obtained from any Mercedes-Benz
Service Centre.
! If you fit tyres other than those tested and
recommended by Mercedes-Benz, charac-
teristics such as handling, noise levels and
fuel consumption, etc. may be adversely
affected. In addition, when driving with a
load, tyre dimensional variations could
cause the tyres to come into contact with
the bodywork and axle components. This
could result in damage to the tyres or the
vehicle.
i Further information about tyres and
wheels can be obtained from any
Mercedes-Benz Service Centre.
i You will find a table of tyre pressures on
the inside of your vehicle's fuel filler flap. You will find further information about tyre
pressures in the “Operation” section
(Y
page 298).
i Notes on vehicle tyres:
Always
R fit tyres of the same size on a given axle
(left/right)
R fit the same type of tyres on your vehicle
at a given time (summer tyres, winter
tyres, MOExtended tyres)
i Vehicles with the MOExtended run-flat
system are not equipped with the TIREFIT
kit. 43
Therefore, it is recommended that you
additionally equip your vehicle with the
TIREFIT kit* when fitting tyres that do not
feature run-flat properties, e.g. winter
tyres.
i A TIREFIT kit is available from any quali-
fied specialist workshop, e.g. a Mercedes-
Benz Service Centre. Tyres of the same dimensions
