CD CAUTION
When removing/fitting the wheel the rim may
hit and damage the brake disc. For this rea
son, please take care and get a second person
to assist you.
Tyres with directional tread pattern
A directional tread pattern can be identified by
arrows on the sidewall that point in the direction
of rotation. Always note the direction of rotation
indicated when mounting the wheel. This is im
portant so that these tyres can give maximum
grip and avoid excessive noise, tread wear and
aquaplaning.
If you ever have a puncture and need to fit the
spare wheel* in the wrong direction, please drive
with extra care because the tyre will not give op
timum performance in this situation. Bear this in
mind particularly when driving on wet roads.
To benefit from the advantages of tyres with this
type of tread pattern, the defective tyre should
be replaced and refitted as soon as possible so
that all tyres again rotate in the correct direction.
After changing a wheel
.,. Fit the hubcap or wheel bolt caps back on, as
required.
.,. Put the tools and jack back in the luggage com
partment.
.,. If the replaced wheel will not fit into the spare
wheel well, stow it safely in the luggage com
partment ¢ page 201.
.,. Check
the tyre pressure of the fitted wheel as
soon as possible.
.,. Adjust the tyre pressures and store them via
the infotainment system.
.,. The wheel bolts should be tightened to 120
Nm. Have this checked as soon as possible with
a torque wrench. Until then, drive with caution.
.,. Have
the flat tyre replaced as quickly as possi
ble. Mobility
