2009 MERCEDES-BENZ E-CLASS COUPE tire size

i
Vehicles with the MOExtended run-flat
system are not equipped with the TIREFIT
kit. 36
It is therefore recommended to additionally
equipy ourvehicle with the TIREFIT kit when
fitting tyres that do not feature run-flat
properties, e.g. winter tyres.
i ATIREFIT kit is availablef rom any quali-
fied specialist workshop, e.g. aMercedes-
Benz Service Centre.
You willf ind notes on driving with aflat tyre
in the "Practical advice" section
(Y page 272). Tyre tread
G
Risk of accident
Bear in mind that:
R tyre grip decreases rapidly on wet roads
when the tread depth is less than 3mm.
Thus, you should replace tyres that have
insufficient tread.
R winter tyres should be replaced when the
tread depth is 4mmorless as they will no
longer provide adequate grip.
R the tread on atyre may not wear evenly.
Thus, you should regularly check the tread
depth and the condition of the tread across
the entire width of all tyres. If necessary,
turn the front wheelstof ull lock in order to
inspect the tyre tread more easily.
Otherwise, you could lose control of the vehi-
cle and cause an accident due to the reduced
grip of the tyres on the road. Tyre pressures
i You willf indatable of tyre pressures for
variouso perating conditions on the inside
of yourv ehicle's fuel filler flap. The applicable valuef
or the "Minispare"
emergency spare wheel*i sstated on the
spare wheel and in the technical data sec-
tion.
The load condition "partially laden" or "fully
laden" is defined in the table by the differing
number of passengers and amount of lug-
gage. The actual number of seats may vary
from this –more information can be found on
the vehicle's registration document.
If no other data is stated, the tyre pressures
specified on the fuel filler flap applyf or all
tyres approved for this vehicle. If
at yre size precedes atyre pressure, the tyre
pressure information following is only valid
for that tyre size. Instead of the complete tyre size, it may be
that only the rim diameter is stated, e.g.

When
atyre pressure of at leas t1.8 bar
is reached:
X Press on/off switch 008Aon the electric air
pump to 0.
The electric air pump is switched off.
X Remove the TIREFIT kit from the wheel.
! After use,e xcess TIREFIT may run out of
the filler hose. This may caus estains.
Therefore, place the filler hose in the plastic
which contained the TIREFIT kit.
X Stow away the TIREFIT kit, the electric air
pump and the warning triangle.
X Pull away immediately.
X Stop after driving for approximately ten
minutes and check the tyre pressure with
the electric air pump. G
Risk of accident
If the tyre pressure is now lower than 1.3 bar,
the tyre is too badly damaged. Do not drive
any further. Consult aqualified specialist
worksho pwhich has the necessary specialist
knowledge and tools to carry out the work
required .Mercedes-Benz recommends that
you use aMercedes-Benz Service Centre for
this purpose. In particular, work relevant to
safety or on safety-related systems must be
carrie dout at aqualified specialist workshop. X
If the tyre pressure is still at least 1.3 bar,
correct it (see fuel filler flap for values).
To increase the tyre pressure: switch on
the electric air pump. To reduce the tyre pressure:
press pres-
sure release button 0070next to pressure
gauge 0071.
X Drive to the neares tworksho pand have the
tyre changed there.
X Have the TIREFIT kit replaced as soon as
possible at aqualified specialist workshop,
e.g. at aMercedes-Benz Service Centre. G
Risk of accident
Do not exceed the maximu mspee dof
80 km/h.
The "max. 80 km/h" label must be affixe din
the driver's fiel dofvision.
The vehicle's handling characteristics may be
affected. H
Environmental note
Have the use dTIREFIT kit disposed of profes-
sionally ,e.g. at aMercedes-Benz Service
Centre.
X Have the TIREFIT kit replaced every four
years at aqualified specialist workshop,
e.g. aMercedes-Benz Service Centre. Changing
awheel and fitting the
spare wheel* G
Risk of accident
The whee ldimensions and tyre size of the
"Minispare" emergency spare wheel* may dif-
fer from those of the damaged wheel.
You rvehicle's handling characteristics will
change when a"Minispare" emergency spare
wheel* is fitted. Adapt you rstyle of driving
accordingly.
The "Minispare" emergency spare wheel*
may only be use dfor as hort time. Do not
exceed the maximu mspee dof80k m/h and
do not deactivate ESP ®
.
Never drive the vehicl ewith more than one
"Minispare" emergency spare wheel* fitted. 268

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.
i Further information aboutt yres and
wheels can be obtained from any
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
pressures in the "Operation" section
(Y page 186).
i Notes on vehicle tyres:
Always
R fit tyres of the same size on agiven axle
(left/right)
R fit the same type of tyres on your vehicle
at ag iven time (summer tyres, winter
tyres, MOExtended tyres)
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.
