of the load compartment.
Fitting the coupling ball bar
Fold down the socket. Remove the
sealing plug from the hole for the
coupling ball bar and stow it in the
load compartment.
Checking the tensioning of the

Run-flat winter tyres may only be
used on factory approved alloy
wheels.
In accordance with country-specific
regulations, affix the speed sticker in
the driver's field of view.Run-flat tyres
Run-flat tyres have reinforced, self-
supporting sidewalls, which ensure
that the tyres always have a certain
amount of driveability, even when
there is no pressure.
Run-flat tyres are only permitted on
vehicles with electronic stability
program and tyre pressure monitoring system or deflation detection system.Caution
Check tyre pressures regularly
even if run-flat tyres are fitted.
Depending on tyre manufacturer, run-
flat tyres can be identified from a
marking on the tyre wall. E.g.
ROF=RunonFlat for Goodyear orSSR=Self Supporting Runflat Tyre
for Continental.
Use of run-flat tyres is only permitted
in combination with factory approved
alloy wheels.
Do not use a tyre repair kit.
The ECO tyre pressure must not be
used.
Run-flat tyres must not be combined
with standard tyres.
If converting to standard tyres, note
that the vehicle is not equipped with a spare wheel or tyre repair kit.
Driving with a damaged tyre
A loss in tyre pressure is indicated by
the tyre pressure monitoring system
or the deflation detection system.
If a tyre has no pressure, continued
driving is possible
■ at a speed of max. 80 km/h
■ up to a distance of 80 km9 Warning
The vehicle will be more difficult to
steer and handle. Braking
distance will be longer.
