The tires are cold:
Rif the vehicle has been parked without
direct sunlight on the tires for at least three
hours and
Rif the vehicle has been driven for less than
1mile (1.6 km).
The tire temperature changes depending on
the outside temperature, the vehicle speed
and the tire load. If the tire temperature
changes by 18‡(10 †), the tire pressure
changes by approximately 10 kPa (0.1 bar/
1.5 psi). Take this into account when
checking the pressure of warm tires. Only
correctthe tire pressure if it is too low for the
current operating conditions. If you check the
tire pressure when the tires are warm, the
resulting value will be higher than if the tires
were cold. This is normal. Do not reduce the
tire pressure to the value specified for cold
tires. The tire pressure would otherwise be
too low.
Observe the recommended tire pressures for
cold tires:
Ron the Tire and Loading Information placard
on the B-pillar on the driver's side
Rin the tire pressure table on the inside of
the fuel filler flap
Ron the yellow label on the emergency spare
wheel (depending on the vehicle
equipment)
Underinflated or overinflated tires
Underinflation
GWARNING
Tires with pressure that is too low can
overheat and burst asaconsequence. In
addition, they also suffer from excessive and/
or irregular wear, which can severely impair
the braking properties and the driving
characteristics. There isarisk of an accident.
Avoid tire pressures that are too low in all the
tires, including the spare wheel.
Underinflated tires may:
Roverheat, leading to tire defects
Rhave an adverse effect on handling
characteristics
Rwear quickly and unevenly
Rhave an adverse effect on fuel consumption
Overinflation
GWARNING
Tires with excessively high pressure can burst
because they are damaged more easily by
road debris, potholes etc. In addition, they
also suffer from irregular wear, which can
severely impair the braking properties and the
driving characteristics. There isarisk of an
accident.
Avoid tire pressures that are too high in all the
tires, including the spare wheel.
Overinflated tires may:
Rincrease the braking distance
Rhave an adverse effect on handling
characteristics
Rwear quickly and unevenly
Rhave an adverse effect on ride comfort
Rbe more susceptible to damage
Maximum tire pressures
Example: maximum permissible tire
pressure
Never exceed the maximum permissible tire
inflation pressure. Always observe the
recommended tire pressure for your vehicle

General notes
!For safety reasons, Mercedes-Benz
recommends that you only use tires and
wheels 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:
RMO=Mercedes-BenzOriginal
RMOE=Mercedes-BenzOriginal Extended
(tires featuring run-flat characteristics)
RMO1=Mercedes-Benz Original (only
certain AMG tires)
Mercedes-BenzOriginal Extended tires
may only be usedonwheels that have been
specifically approved by Mercedes-Benz.
Only use tires, wheels or accessories
tested and approved by Mercedes-Benz.
Certain characteristics, e.g. handling,
vehiclenoise emissions or fuel
consumption, may otherwise be adversely
affected. In addition, when driving with a
load, tire dimension variations couldcause
the tires to come into contact with the
bodywork and axle components. This could
result in damage to the tires or the vehicle.
Mercedes-Benz accepts no liability for
damage resulting from the use of tires,
wheels or accessories other than those
tested and approved.
Information on tires, wheels and approved
combinations can be obtained from any
qualified specialist workshop.
Overviewofabbreviations usedinthe
following tire tables:
RBA: both axles
RFA: front axle
RRA: rear axle
The recommended pressures for various
operating conditionscan be found:
Ron the Tire and Loading Information placard
with the recommended tire pressures on
the B-pillar on the driver's side
Rin the tire pressure table on the inside of
the fuel filler flap
Observe the notes on recommended tire
pressures under various operating conditions
(Ypage 338).
Check tire pressures regularly,and only when
the tires are cold. Comply with the
maintenancerecommendations of the tire
manufacturer in the vehicle document wallet.
Notes on the vehicle equipment–always
equip the vehicle with:
Rtires of the same size onagiven axle (left/
right)
Rthe same type of tires atagiven time
(summer tires, winter tires, MOExtended
tires)
Vehicles with MOExtendedtires are not
equipped withaTIREFIT kit at the factory. It
is therefore recommendedthat you
additionally equip your vehicle withaTIREFIT
kit if you mounttires that do not feature run-
flat properties,e.g. winter tires.ATIREFIT kit
may be obtained fromaqualified specialist
workshop.
iNot all wheeland tire combinations are
available at the factory for all countries.
iOn the following pages, you can find
information on approved wheelrims and
tiresizesfor equipping your vehicle with
winter tires. Winter tires are not available
