Note that work and repairs on the 115 V
power socket should only be carried out by
qualified specialist personnel.
General notes The 115 V power socket provides an
alternating voltage of 115 V so that small
electronic devices can be connected. These
devices, such as games consoles, chargers
and laptops, must not consume more than a
maximum of 150 watts altogether.
Requirements for operation of these devices:
R the electronic device that you connect has
a suitable connector and conforms to
standards specific to the country you are
in.
R the plug of the electronic device is plugged
correctly into 115 V power socket.
R the maximum wattage of the device to be
connected must not exceed 150 watts.
R the on-board power supply is within a
permissible voltage range.
R the 12 V sockets in the center console in
the front compartment (Y page 328) and in
the trunk are functional (Y page 329).
Using the 115 V power socket The 115 V socket is in the center console in
the rear compartment on vehicles with a rear
bench seat or electrically adjustable rear
seats.

Problem Possible causes/consequences and
0050
0050Solutions The warning lamp on
the 115 V power socket
is not lit. The on-board voltage is too low because the battery is too weak.
X
Start the engine.
or
X Charge the battery (Y page 371).
If the indicator lamp still does not light up:
X Visit a qualified specialist workshop. The temperature of the DC/AC converter is temporarily too high.
X
Remove the electronic device connector from the 115 V socket.
X Let the DC/AC converter cool down.
If the indicator lamp still does not light up after cooling down the
converter:
X Visit a qualified specialist workshop. You have connected an electronic device that has a constant
nominal power of less than 150 watts, but has a very high switch-
on current. This device will not work. If you connect such a device,
the 115 V power socket will not supply it with power.
X Connect a suitable electronic device. Coolbox in the rear compartment

The following table shows examples on how to calculate total and cargo load capacities with
varying seating configurations and number and size of occupants. The following examples use
a maximum load of 1500 lbs (680 kg). This is for illustration purposes only. Make sure you
are using the actual load limit for your vehicle stated on your vehicle's Tire and Loading
Information placard (Y page 395).
The greater the combined weight of the occupants, the lower the maximum luggage load.

Flat tire
The "Breakdown assistance" section
(Y page 365)c ontains information and notes
on how to deal with a flat tire. Information on
driving with MOExtended tires in the event of
a flat tire can be found under "MOExtended
tires (tires with run-flat characteristics"
(Y page 365). Rotating the wheels
G
WARNING
Interchanging the front and rear wheels may
severely impair the driving characteristics if
the wheels or tires have different dimensions.
The wheel brakes or suspension components
may also be damaged. There is a risk of
accident.
Rotate front and rear wheels only if the wheels
and tires are of the same dimensions.
! On vehicles equipped with a tire pressure
monitor, electronic components are
located in the wheel.
Tire-mounting tools should not be used
near the valve. This could damage the
electronic components.
Only have tires changed at a qualified
specialist workshop.
Always observe the instructions and safety
notes in the "Mounting a wheel" section
(Y page 408).
The wear patterns on the front and rear tires
differ, depending on the operating conditions. Rotate the wheels before a clear wear pattern
has formed on the tires. Front tires typically
wear more on the shoulders and the rear tires
in the center.
If your vehicle's tire configuration allows, you
can rotate the wheels according to the
intervals in the tire manufacturer's warranty
book in your vehicle documents. If no
warranty book is available, the tires should be
rotated every 3,000 to 6,000 miles
(5,000 to
10,000 km), or earlier if tire wear requires.
Ensure the direction of rotation is maintained.
Clean the contact surfaces of the wheel and
the brake disc thoroughly every time a wheel
is rotated. Check the tire pressure and
reactivate the tire pressure monitor if
necessary (Y page 393). Direction of rotation
Tires with a specified direction of rotation
have additional benefits, e.g. if there is a risk
of hydroplaning. You will only gain these
benefits if the correct direction of rotation is
maintained.
An arrow on the sidewall of the tire indicates
its correct direction of rotation. Storing wheels
Store wheels that are not being used in a cool,
dry and preferably dark place. Protect the
tires from oil, grease, gasoline and diesel. Cleaning the wheels

WARNING
The water jet from a circular jet nozzle (dirt
blasters) can cause invisible exterior damage
to the tires or chassis components.
Components damaged in this way may fail
unexpectedly. There is a risk of an accident.
Do not use power washers with circular jet
nozzles to clean the vehicle. Have damaged Changing a wheel
