the degre eoftyre wear. Do not reverse the
direction of tyre rotation.
Clea nthe con tact surface softhe wheel and

if necessary, restart th etyre pressure loss

! On vehicles fitted wit hatyre pressure
monitor, electronic components are loca-
ted in the wheel.
Tyre-fitting tools should not be applied in
the area of the valve, as this could damage
the electronic components.
Always have the tyres changed at aquali-
fied specialist workshop, e.g. aMercedes-
Benz Servic eCentre. Direction of rota
tion
Tyres with aspecified direction of rotation
have additional benefits, e.g. if there is arisk
of aquaplaning. You will only gain these ben-
efits if the correct direction of rotation is
observed.
An arrow on the sidewall of the tyre indicates
its correct direction of rotation.
You may fit an emergenc yspare wheel/spare
wheel against the direction of rotation.
Observe the tim erestric tion on use as well as
the speed limitation specified on the emer-
genc yspare wheel/spar ewheel. Storing wheels

! Retreaded tyres ar eneither tested nor
recommended by Mercedes-Benz, since
previous damage can nota lways be detec-
ted on retreaded tyres. As aresult,
Mercedes-Benz can notg uarantee vehicle
safety if retreaded tyres are fitted. Do not
fit used tyres if you have no information
about their previous usage.
! Large wheels: the lower the section width
for acertain wheel size, the lower the ride
comfor tisonp oor roadsurfaces. Roll com-
fort and suspensio ncomfort ar ereduced
and the risk of damage to the wheels and
tyres as aresult of driving over obstacles
increases.
