Warning messages of the tyre pressure
monitor If the tyre pressure monitor detects a pres-
sure loss in one or more tyres, a warning mes-
sage is shown in the multifunction display and the yellow tyre pressure monitor warning
lamp comes on.
R If the Please correct tyre pressure
Please correct tyre pressure
message appears in the multifunction dis-
play, the tyre pressure in at least one tyre is too low and must be corrected at the next
opportunity.
R If the Tyre pressure Check tyre(s) Tyre pressure Check tyre(s)
message appears in the multifunction dis-
play, the tyre pressure in one or more tyres
has dropped significantly and the tyres
must be checked.
R If the Tyre pressure Caution Tyre Tyre pressure Caution Tyre
malfunction
malfunction message appears in the mul-
tifunction display, the tyre pressure in one
or more tyres has dropped suddenly and
the tyres must be checked.
Observe the instructions and safety notes in
the display messages in the "Tyres" section
(Y page 276).
If the wheel positions on the vehicle are inter-
changed, the tyre pressures may be displayed for the wrong positions for a short time. After
a few minutes of driving, this is rectified and
the tyre pressures are displayed for the cor-
rect positions.
Restarting the tyre pressure monitor When you restart the tyre pressure monitor,
all existing warning messages are deleted and
the warning lamps go out. The monitor uses
the currently set tyre pressures as the refer-
ence values for monitoring. In most cases, the
tyre pressure monitor will automatically
detect the new reference values after you
have changed the tyre pressure. However,
you can also define reference values man-
ually as described here. The tyre pressure
monitor then monitors the new tyre pressure values. X
Use the table on the inside of the fuel filler
flap to ensure that the tyre pressure is set
correctly in all four tyres for the current
operating conditions.
Also observe the notes in the section on
tyre pressures (Y page 356).
X Make sure that the key is in position 2in the
ignition lock (Y page 159).

The tyre pressure values stored at the last
restart will continue to be monitored. 360
Tyre pressureWheels and tyres

Interchanging the front and rear wheels of
differing dimensions can render the general
operating permit invalid.
Observe the instructions and safety notes in
the "Changing a wheel" section (Y page 361).
The wear patterns on the front and rear tyres differ depending on the operating conditions.
Interchange the wheels before a clear wear
pattern has formed on the tyres. Front tyres
typically wear more on the shoulders and the
rear tyres in the centre.
On vehicles that have the same size front and rear wheels, you can interchange the wheels
every 5,000 to 10,000 km depending on the
degree of tyre wear. Ensure the direction of
rotation is maintained.
Clean the contact surfaces of the wheel and
the brake disc thoroughly every time a wheel
is interchanged. Check the tyre pressure and, if necessary, restart the tyre pressure loss
warning system or the tyre pressure monitor. Direction of rotation
Tyres with a specified direction of rotation
have additional benefits, e.g. if there is a risk
of aquaplaning. These advantages can only be gained if the tyres are fitted corresponding to the direction of rotation.
An arrow on the sidewall of the tyre indicates
its correct direction of rotation. Storing wheels
Store wheels in a cool, dry and preferably
dark place if they are not being used. Protect
the tyres against oil, grease, petrol and diesel. Fitting a wheel
Preparing the vehicle X
Stop the vehicle on solid, non-slippery and
level ground.
X Apply the electric parking brake manually. X
Move the front wheels to the straight-
ahead position.
X Vehicles with manual transmission:
depress the clutch pedal fully and engage
first or reverse gear.
X Vehicles with automatic transmission:
shift the transmission to position P.
X Switch off the engine.
X Vehicles without KEYLESS-GO: remove
the key from the ignition lock.
X Vehicles with KEYLESS-GO start-func-
tion or KEYLESS-GO: open the driver's
door.
The on-board electronics now have status
0. This is the same as the key having been
removed.
X Vehicles with KEYLESS-GO start func-
tion or KEYLESS-GO: remove the Start/
Stop button from the ignition lock
(Y page 159).
X If included in the vehicle equipment,
remove the tyre-change tool kit from the
vehicle.
X Safeguard the vehicle against rolling away
(Y page 181).
i Apart from some country-specific var-
iants, vehicles are not equipped with tyre-
changing tools. Some tools for changing a
wheel are specific to the vehicle. For more information on which tools are required to
perform a wheel change on your vehicle,
consult a qualified specialist workshop.
Necessary tyre-changing tools may
include, for example:
R Jack
R Wheel chock
R Wheel wrench 362

release the parking brake while the vehicle
is raised.
R the jack must be placed on a firm, flat and
non-slip surface. On a loose surface, a
large, flat load-bearing underlay must be
used. On a slippery surface, a non-slip
underlay must be used, e.g. rubber mats.
R do not use wooden blocks or similar
objects as a jack underlay. Otherwise, the
jack will not be able to achieve its load-
bearing capacity due to the restricted
height.
R make sure that the distance between the
underside of the tyres and the ground does
not exceed 3 cm.
R never place your hands or feet under the
raised vehicle.
R do not lie under the vehicle.
R do not start the engine when the vehicle is
raised.
R do not open or close a door or the tailgate
while the vehicle is raised.
R make sure that no persons are present in
the vehicle when the vehicle is raised.
Vehicles with steel wheels: the hub cap
covers the wheel bolts. Before you can
unscrew the wheel bolts, you must remove
the hub cap. Steel wheel with wheel trim
X
Using both hands, carefully reach into two
wheel trim openings and remove the wheel trim. X
Using wheel wrench :, loosen the bolts on
the wheel you wish to change by about one full turn. Do not unscrew the bolts com-
pletely. Jacking points
The jacking points are located just behind the front wheel arches and just in front of the rear
wheel arches (arrows). X
Take ratchet ring spanner ?out of the
vehicle tool kit and place it on the hexagon nut of jack =so that the letters AUFare

The antifreeze/corrosion inhibitor concentra-
tion in the engine cooling system should:
R be at least 50%. This will protect the engine
cooling system against freezing down to
approximately -37 †.
R not exceed 55% (antifreeze protection
down to -45 †). Heat will otherwise not be
dissipated as effectively.
Mercedes-Benz recommends coolant or anti- freeze/corrosion inhibitor concentrate in
accordance with
MB Specifications for Service Products 310.1
.
i When the vehicle is first delivered, it is fil-
led with a coolant mixture that ensures
adequate antifreeze and corrosion protec-
tion.
i The coolant is checked at every mainte-
nance interval at a qualified specialist
workshop. Windscreen washer system and head-

Important safety notes G
WARNING
If windscreen washer concentrate comes into contact with hot components of the engine or
the exhaust system, it can ignite. There is a
risk of fire and injury.
Make sure the windscreen washer concen-
trate does not come into contact with the filler neck.
! Do not use distilled or de-ionised water in
the washer fluid reservoir. Otherwise, the
level sensor may be damaged.
! Only the washer fluids SummerFit and
WinterFit can be mixed. Otherwise, the
spraying nozzles could become blocked.
When handling washer fluid, observe the
important safety notes on service products
(Y page 386). At temperatures above freezing:
X Fill the washer fluid reservoir with a mixture
of water and washer fluid, e.g. MB Sum-
merFit.
Mix 1 part MB SummerFit to 100 parts water.
At temperatures below freezing:
X Fill the washer fluid reservoir with a mixture
of water and washer fluid, e.g. MB Winter-
Fit.
For the correct mixing ratio refer to the
information on the antifreeze reservoir.
i Add washer fluid concentrate, e.g. MB
SummerFit or MB WinterFit, to the washer
fluid all year round. Vehicle data
