Points to remember
GWarning
Observe the "Important safety information"
( Y page 320).
! For safety reasons, Mercedes-Benz
recommends that you only use tires,
wheels and accessories which have been
approved by Mercedes-Benz specifically
for your vehicle. These tires have been
specially adapted for use with the control
systems, such as ABS or ESP ®
, and are
marked as follows:
R MO = Mercedes-Benz Original
R MOE = Mercedes-Benz Original Extended
(tires with run-flat characteristics)
R MO1 = Mercedes-Benz Original (AMG)
Only use Mercedes-Benz Original Extended
tires on wheels that have been specifically
approved by Mercedes-Benz.
If you use other tires, wheels and
accessories, Mercedes-Benz cannot
accept any responsibility for damage that
may result from this. Further information
about tires, wheels and approved
combinations can be obtained from any
authorized Mercedes-Benz Center.
! If you mount tires other than those tested
and recommended by Mercedes-Benz,
characteristics such as handling, noise
levels and fuel consumption, etc. may be
adversely affected. In addition, when
driving with a load, tire dimensional
variations could cause the tires to come
into contact with the bodywork and axle
components. This could result in damage
to the tires or the vehicle.
i Further information about tires and
wheels can be obtained from any
authorized Mercedes-Benz Center.
i The Tire and Load Information placard
with the recommended tire pressures is
attached to the B-pillar on the driver's side.
Further information about driving at high
speeds or driving with vehicle loads that are
lighter than the maximum vehicle load can
be found in the tire pressure table on the
inside of the fuel filler flap. Check tire
pressures regularly, and only when the tires
are cold. Comply with the maintenance
recommendations of the tire manufacturer
in the vehicle document wallet.
Further information on the recommended tire
inflation pressure and on tire pressures for
specific driving conditions, see (Y page 322).
i Notes on the vehicle equipment:
R always mount tires of the same size on a
given axle (left/right).
R always mount the same type of tires on
your vehicle at a given time (summer
tires, winter tires, MOExtended tires).
i Vehicles featuring the MOExtended run-
flat system are not equipped with a TIREFIT
kit.
It is therefore recommended that you
additionally equip your vehicle with the
TIREFIT kit if you mount tires that do not
feature run-flat properties, e.g. winter tires.
A TIREFIT kit is available from any qualified
specialist workshop, e.g. an authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center.
i The following pages contain information
on approved wheel rims and tire sizes for
equipping your vehicle with winter tires.

as standard equipment or as an optional
extra.
If you want to equip your vehicle with
approved winter tires, it may be necessary
to obtain wheel rims in the corresponding
size, as the size of the approved winter tires
may differ from the standard tires. This is
dependent on the model and the
equipment installed at the factory.
Tires, wheel rims and further information
can be obtained at a qualified specialist
workshop, e.g. an authorized Mercedes-
Benz Center.344Wheel/tire combinationsTires and wheels

Anticorrosion/antifreeze
Your vehicle has a number of aluminum components. The use of aluminum components in
motor vehicle engines necessitates that anticorrosion/antifreeze coolant used in such
engines be specifically formulated to protect the aluminum parts. Failure to use such
anticorrosion/antifreeze coolant will result in a significantly shortened service life.
For this reason, the following product is expressly recommended for use in your vehicle:
MB 325.0 Anticorrosion/Antifreeze.
The coolant concentration should be checked before the onset of winter or once a year in
warmer regions.
The coolant is checked at every service at an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center.

Washer solvent/antifreeze is highly
flammable. Do not spill washer solvent/

ignite and burn. You could be seriously
burned.
