Risk of accident
The wheel and tyre size of the emergency
spare wheel/s pare wh eelm ay differ to tha tof
the damaged wheel. Whe nusing an emer-
genc yspare wheel/spar ewheel the handling
characteristic softhe vehicle ma ychange.
Adap tyour style of driving accordingly.
Never operate the vehicle with mor ethan one
emergenc yspare wheel/spar ewheel that dif-
fer sins ize.
Only use an emergenc yspare wheel/spare
wheel of adiffering size briefly and do not
switch off ESP ®
.
When using an emergenc yspare wheel you
must not exceed the maximum speed of
80 km/h. G
Risk of accident
Hav ethe emergenc yspare wheel/spare
wheel replaced with anew wheel as soon as
possible at aqualified specialist workshop
which has the necessary specialist knowledge
and tools to carry out the work required.
Mercedes-Benz recommends that you use a
Mercedes-Benz Service Centre for this pur-
pose .Inp articular, work relevant to safety or

R When parking your vehicle, make sure that
the tyres do not ge tdeformed by the kerb
or other obstacles. If it is necessary to drive
over kerbs, speed humps or simila releva-
tions, try to do so slowly and at an obtuse
angle. Otherwise, the tyres, particularly the
sidewalls, can get damaged. Maintenance and care of wheels and
tyres
Checking wheels and tyres
R Regularly chec kthe wheels and tyres of
your vehicle for damage (e.g. cuts, punctu-
res, tears, bulges on tyres and deformation,
crack sorseverecorrosion on wheels), at
least ever y14d ays, as well as after driving
off-road or on rough roads. Damaged
wheels can cause aloss of tyr epressure.
R Regu larly check th etyre tread depth and
the conditio nofthe tread across the whole
widt hofthe tyr e(Ypage 299). If neces-
sary, tur nthe front wheels to full lock in
orde rtoi nspect the inner sid eofthe tyre
surface.
R All wheels must hav eavalve cap to protect
the valve against dirt and moisture. Do not
fit anything onto the valve (such as tyre
pressure monitorin gsystems) othe rthan
the standar dvalve cap or other valve caps
approved by Mercedes-Ben zfor your vehi-
cle.
R Regularly chec kthe pressur eofall the tyres
including the emergenc yspare wheel or the
spare wheel, particularly prior to long trips,
and correc tthe pressur easnecessary
(Y page 299). Ty
re tr ead 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 repl acet yres that have
insufficient tread.
R winter tyres sho uld bereplaced when the
trea ddepth is 4mmorl ess as they will no
longer provide adequat egrip.
R thet rea donat yre may not wear evenly.
Thus ,you should regularly chec kthe tread
depth and the condition of the tread across
the entire widt hofall tyres. If necessary,
turn the steerin gwheel so that you can see
the tyr etrea dm ore easily.
You coul dotherwise los econtrol of the vehi-
cle and cause an acciden tdue to the reduced
grip of the tyres on the road. Storing tyres
Store tyres that are not being used in acool,
dry and preferably dar kplace. Protect the
tyres against oil, grease, petrol and diesel. Cleaning tyres
! Do not use ahigh pressure jet with circu-
lar jet nozzles (concentrated-power jets) to
clean the tyres. The high pressure of the
water jet could damage the tyres. Always
replace damaged tyres. Tyr
epressures Recommended ty
repressures
You will find atable of tyre pressures for var-
ious operating conditions on the inside of
your vehicle's fuel filler flap.
The applicable value for the emergency spare
wheel is stated on the spare wheel and in the
