Clean the wheel and wheel hub contact
surfaces.
X Slide the wheel to be mounted onto the
centring pin and push it on.
X Tighten the wheel bolts until they are fin-
ger-tight.
X Unscrew the centring pin.
X Tighten the last wheel bolt until it is finger-
tight.
X Vehicles with a collapsible emergency
spare wheel: inflate the collapsible emer-
gency spare wheel (Y page 464).
Only then lower the vehicle.
Lowering the vehicle G
WARNING
The wheels could work loose if the wheel nuts and bolts are not tightened to the specified
tightening torque. There is a risk of accident.
Have the tightening torque immediately
checked at a qualified specialist workshop
after a wheel is changed.
! Vehicles with a collapsible emergency
spare wheel: Inflate the collapsible emer-
gency spare wheel using the tyre inflation
compressor before lowering the vehicle.
The rim could otherwise be damaged. X
Turn the crank of the jack anti-clockwise
until the vehicle is once again standing
firmly on the ground.
X Place the jack to one side.
X Tighten the wheel bolts evenly in a cross-
wise pattern in the sequence indicated ( :
to A). The specified tightening torque is
130 Nm.
X Turn the jack back to its initial position.
X Stow the jack and the rest of the tyre-
change tool kit in the load compartment
again.
X Vehicles with AMG equipment: insert the
cover into the outer sill.
X Check the air pressure of the newly fitted
wheel and adjust accordingly.
Observe the recommended tyre pressure
(Y page 436).
If you are driving with the collapsible emer-
gency 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 a tyre pressure control sys-
tem: all fitted wheels must be equipped with
functioning sensors.
If you are driving with the emergency spare
wheel fitted, the tyre pressure loss warning
system cannot function reliably. Only restart
the tyre pressure loss warning system when
the defective wheel has been replaced with a
new wheel. Changing a wheel

Useful information
i This Owner's Manual describes all mod-
els, series and optional equipment for your
vehicle that were available at the time of
going to press. National variations are pos- sible. Note that your vehicle may not be
equipped with all of the functions descri-
bed. This is also the case for systems and
functions relevant to safety.

ist workshops: (Y page 27). Information on technical data
You can find current technical data on the
Internet on our Mercedes ‑Benz homepage.
i The technical data was determined in
accordance with EU Directives. All data
applies to the vehicle's standard equip-
ment. The data may therefore differ for
vehicles with optional equipment. You can

Tampering with the engine electron-
ics
! Only have work carried out on the engine
electronics and its associated parts, such
as control units, sensors, actuating com-
ponents and connector leads, at a qualified specialist workshop. Vehicle components
may otherwise wear more quickly and the
vehicle's operating permit may be invalida- ted. Retrofitting two-way radios and
mobile phones (RF transmitters)
G
WARNING
If RF transmitters are tampered with or not
properly retrofitted, the electromagnetic radi- ation they emit can interfere with the vehicle
electronics. This may jeopardise the opera-
tional safety of the vehicle. There is a risk of an
accident.
You should have all work on electrical and
electronic components carried out at a quali-
fied specialist workshop. G
WARNING
If you use the RF transmitter in the vehicle in
an improper way, its electromagnetic radia-
tion can disrupt vehicle electronics, e.g. if:
R the RF transmitter is not connected to an
exterior aerial
R the exterior aerial is fitted incorrectly or is
not a low-reflection aerial
This can jeopardise the operating safety of the vehicle. There is a risk of an accident.
Have the low-reflection exterior aerial fitted at
a qualified specialist workshop. When oper-
ating in the vehicle, always connect the RF
transmitter to the low-reflection exterior aer-
ial.
! The operating permit may be invalidated if
the instructions for installation and use of
RF transmitters are not observed.
In particular, the following conditions must be complied with:
R only approved wavebands may be used.
R observe the maximum permissible out-
put in these wavebands.
R only approved aerial positions may be
used.
Excessive levels of electromagnetic radiation
may cause damage to your health and to the
health of others. The use of an exterior aerial
takes into consideration the scientific discus- 468
Vehicle electronicsTechnical data

Further information on coolants can be
found in the Mercedes-Benz Specifications for Service Products, MB Specifications for Service Products 310.1, e.g. on the Inter-
net at http://bevo.mercedes-benz.com.
Or contact a qualified specialist workshop.
! Always use a suitable coolant mixture,
even in countries where high temperatures prevail.
Otherwise, the engine cooling system is not
sufficiently protected from corrosion and
overheating.
i Have the coolant regularly replaced at a
qualified specialist workshop and the
replacement confirmed in the Service
Booklet.
The coolant is a mixture of water and anti-
freeze/corrosion inhibitor. It is responsible
for the following:
R anti-corrosion protection
R antifreeze protection
R raising the boiling point
If antifreeze/corrosion inhibitor is present in
the correct concentration, the boiling point of
the coolant during operation will be approx-
imately 130 †.
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 an antifreeze/
corrosion inhibitor concentrate in accord-
ance with
MB Specifications for Service Products 310.1
.
The coolant is checked at every maintenance interval at a qualified specialist workshop.
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 and headlamp cleaning

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.
! Only use washer fluid that is suitable for
plastic lamp lenses, e.g. MB SummerFit or
MB WinterFit. Unsuitable washer fluid
could damage the plastic lenses of the
headlamps.
! 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.
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. Service products and capacities
