Emergency spare wheel
Important safety notes
G
WARNING
The wheel/tyre dimensions and the tyre type
of the spare wheel/emergency spare wheel
and the wheel to be replaced may differ. Fit-
ting a spare wheel/emergency spare wheel
may severely impair the driving characteris-
tics. There is a risk of accident.
To prevent hazardous situations:
R Adap tyour driving style accordingly and
drive carefully.
R Never fit more than one spare wheel/emer-
gency spare wheel if the dimesions are dif-
ferent to those of the wheel being replaced.
R Only use a spare wheel/emergency spare
wheel briefly if the dimesions are different
to those of the wheel being replaced.
R Do not switch off ESP ®
.
R Have the spare wheel/emergency spare
wheel in question replaced at the nearest
qualified specialist workshop. Make sure
that the wheel/tyre dimensions and tyre
type are correct.
When using an emergency spare wheel or
spare wheel of a different size, you must not
exceed the maximum speed of 80 km/h.
Snow chains must not be fitted to emergency
spare wheels. General notes
You should regularly check the pressure of all
your tyres, including the emergency spare
wheel, particularly prior to long trips, and cor-
rect the pressure as necessary (Y page 357).
The applicable value is found on the wheel or
under "Technical data" (Y page 380).
An emergency spare wheel may also be fitted
against the direction of rotation .Observe the
time restriction on use as well as the speed
limitation specified on the emergency spare
wheel. Replace the tyres after six years at the latest,
regardless of wear. This also applies to the
emergency spare wheel.
i
When you are driving with the collapsible
emergency spare wheel fitted, the tyre
pressure loss warning system or the tyre
pressure monitor cannot function reliably.
Only restart the tyre pressure loss warning
system/tyre pressure monitor when the
defective wheel has been replaced with a
new wheel.
Vehicles with tyre pressure monitor:
after mounting an emergency spare wheel,
the system may still display the tyre pres-
sure of the removed wheel for a few
minutes. The value displayed for the moun-
ted emergency spare wheel is not the same
as the current tyre pressure of the emer-
gency spare wheel. Removing the "Minispare" emer-
gency spare wheel/collapsible emer-

aused collapsible emer-
gency spare wheel
! Only place the collapsible emergency
spare wheel in the vehicle when it is dry.
Otherwise, moisture may get into the vehi-
cle.
Take the following steps to stow a used col-
lapsible emergency spare wheel. It will not
otherwise fit into the spare wheel well.
Mercedes-Benz recommends that you have
this work performed at aqualified specialist
workshop, e.g. at a Mercedes-Ben zService
Centre.
X Unscrew the valve cap from the valve.
X Use the back of the valve cap to unscrew
the valve insert from the valve and release
the air.
i Fully deflating the tyre may take a few
minutes.
X Screw the valve insert back into the valve.
X Screw the valve cap back on.
X Remove the protective film from the vehicle
tool kit and put it over the collapsible emer-
gency spare wheel.
X Stow the collapsible emergency spare
wheel in the emergency spare wheel well
under the boot. Inflating the collapsible emergency
spare wheel
! Inflate the collapsible emergency spare
wheel using the tyre inflation compressor
before lowering the vehicle. The wheel rim
could otherwise be damaged.
! Do not operate the tyre inflation com-
pressor for longer than eight minutes at a
time without a break. It may otherwise
overheat. 378
Emergency spare wheelWheels and tyres
The tyre inflation compressor can be oper-
ated again once it has cooled down. X
Mount the collapsible emergency spare
wheel as described (Y page 362).
The collapsible emergency spare wheel
must be mounted before it is inflated.
X Pull connector ?and the air hose out of
the housing.
X Remove the cap from the valve on the col-
lapsible emergency spare wheel.
X Screw union nut :on the air hose onto the
valve.
X Make sure on/of fswitch Aof the tyre
inflatio ncompressor is set to 0.
X Insert connector ?into the cigarette
lighter socket or into a 12 Vsocket in your
vehicle.
Observe the notes on the cigarette lighter
(Y page 307). Observe the notes on sock-
ets (Y page 308).
X Turn the key to position 1in the ignition
lock (Y page 147).
X Press on/offs witchAon the tyre inflation
compressor to I.
The tyre inflatio ncompressor is switched
on. The tyre is inflated. The tyre pressure is
shown on pressure gauge =.
X Pump the tyre to the specified tyre pres-
sure.
The specified tyre pressure is printed on
the yellow label of the emergency spare
wheel. X
When the specified tyre pressure has been
reached, press on/offs witchAon the
electric air pump to 0.
The tyre inflatio ncompressor is switched
off.
X Turn the key to position 0in the ignition
lock.
X If the tyre pressure is higher than the speci-
fied pressure, press pressure release but-
ton ;until the correct tyre pressure has
been reached.
X Unscrew union nut :on the air hose from
the valve.
X Screw the valve cap ontot he collapsible

WARNING
Driving safety may be impaired if non-
approved parts, tyres and wheels or safety-
relevant accessories are used.
This could lead to malfunctions in safety-rel-
evant systems, e.g. the brake system. This
could cause you to lose control of your vehicle
and cause an accident.
For this reason, Mercedes-Benz recommends
that you use genuine Mercedes-Benz parts or
parts of equal quality. Only use tyres, wheels
and accessories that have been specifically
approved for your vehicle. H
Environmental note
Daimler AG also supplies reconditioned
assemblies and parts which are of the same
quality as new parts. For these, the same war-
ranty applies as for new parts.
! Airbags and seat belt tensioners, as well
as control units and sensors for these
restraint systems, may be installed in the
following areas of your vehicle:
R doors
R door pillars
R door sills
R seats
R dashboard
R instrument cluster
R centre console
Do not install accessories such as audio
systems in these areas. Do not carry out
repairs or welding. You could impair the
operating efficiency of the restraint sys-
tems.
Have accessories retrofitted at a qualified
specialist workshop.
Mercedes-Benz tests genuine parts and con-
version parts and accessories that have been
specifically approved for your vehicle for their
reliability, safety and suitability. Despite
ongoing market research, Mercedes-Benz is
unable to assess other parts. Mercedes-Benz
accepts no responsibility for the use of parts
that have been independently or officially
approved.
In Germany, certain parts are only officially
approved for installation or modification if
they comply with legal requirements. This
also applies to some other countries. All gen-
uine Mercedes-Benz parts meet the approval
requirements. The use of non-approved parts
may invalidate the vehicle's general operating
permit. 382
