Tighten the wheel bolts evenly in across-
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 boot/luggage com-
partmen tagain.
X AMG vehicles and 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 420).

ombinations General notes
! For safety reasons, Mercedes-Benz rec-
ommends that you only use tyres and
wheels which have been approved by
Mercedes-Benz specifically for your vehi-
cle. These are specially adapted to the control
systems, such as ABS or ESP
®
and are
marked as follows:
R MO =Mercedes-Benz Original
R MOE =Mercedes-Benz Original Extended
(tyres featuring run-flat characteristics)
R MO1 =Mercedes-Benz Original (only cer-
tain AMG tyres)
Mercedes-Benz Original Extended tyres
may only be used on wheels that have been
specifically approved by Mercedes-Benz.
Only use tyres, wheels or accessories tes-
ted and approved by Mercedes-Benz.C er-
tain characteristics, e.g. handling, vehicle
noise emissions or fuel consumption, may
otherwise be adversely affected. In addi-
tion, when driving with aload, tyre dimen-
sion variations could cause the tyres to
come into contact with the bodywork and
axle components. This could result in dam- age to the tyres or the vehicle.
Mercedes-Benz accepts no liability for
damage resulting from the use of tyres,
wheels or accessories other than those tes-
ted and approved.
Further information about wheels, tyres
and approved combinations can be
obtained from any qualified specialist
workshop.
! Retreaded tyres are neither tested nor
recommended by Mercedes-Benz,s ince
previous damage cannot alway sbedetec-
ted on retreaded tyres. As aresult,
Mercedes-Benz cannot guarantee vehicle
safety if retreaded tyres are fitted. Do not fit
used tyres if you have no information about their previous usage.
! Large wheels: the lower the section width
for acertain wheel size, the lower the ride
comfor tisonp oor road surfaces. Roll com-
fort and suspension comfor tare reduced
and the risk of damage to the wheels and
tyres as aresult of driving over obstacles
increases. Wheel and tyrec

Engine oil viscosity Viscosity describes the flow characteristics
of afluid. If an engine oil has ahigh viscosity
rating, it flow sslowly;t he lower the viscosity,
the faster it flows.
Engine oil selection is based on the respective outside temperatures and in accordance with
the SAE classification (viscosity) .The table
show syou which SAE classifications are to be
used. The low-temperature properties of
engine oilsc an be significantly impaired dur-
ing operation due to, for example, ageing or
soot and fuel accretion. It is therefore
strongly recommende dtoobserve regular oil
changes using an approved engine oil with the
appropriate SAE classification. Brake fluid
G
WARNING
The brake flui dcontinuously absorbs mois-
ture from the air. This results in the boiling
point of the brake flui dlowering. If the boiling
point of the brake flui distoo low,v apour
pockets may form when the brakes are sub-
jected to aheavy load. This would impair brak-
ing efficiency. There is arisk of an accident.
Have the brake flui drenewe datthe prescri-
bed intervals.
Comply with the important safety notes for
service products when handling brake fluid
(Y page4 73).
The brake flui dchange interval scan be found
in the Service Booklet.
Only use brake flui dapproved by Mercedes-
Benz according to MB Approva l331.0.
Information about approved brake flui dcan
be obtained at any qualified specialist work-
shop or on the Internet at
http://bevo.mercedes-benz.com.

Booklet. Coolant
Important safety notes G
WARNING
If antifreeze comes into contact with hot com- ponents in the engine compartment, it may
ignite. There is arisk of fire and injury.
Let the engine cool downb efore you top up
the antifreeze. Make sure that antifreeze is
not spilled next to the filler neck. Thoroughly
clea nthe antifreeze from components before
starting the engine.
! Only add coolant that has been premixed
with the desired antifreeze protection. You
coul dotherwise damage the engine. Servic
