If you use other tyres, Mercedes-Benz can-
not accept any responsibility for damage
which may occur. Information aboutt yres
can be obtained from any Mercedes-Benz
Service Centre.
! If you fit tyres other than those tested and
recommended by Mercedes-Benz,c harac-
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.

Mercedes-Benz Service Centre. i
You will find atable of tyre pressures on
the inside of your vehicle's fuel filler flap.
You will find further information aboutt yre

i Notes on vehicle tyres:
Always
R fit tyres of the same size on agiven axle

R fit the same type of tyres on your vehicle
at ag iven time (summer tyres, winter

i Vehicles with the MOExtended run-flat
system are not equipped with the TIREFIT
kit. 63
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.

fied specialist workshop, e.g. aMercedes-
