Tyre pressure monitor
General notes If
at yrep ressure monitor system is fitted, the
vehicle's wheels have sensor sfitte dthat
monitor the tyr epressures in al lfou rtyres.
The tyr epressure monitor warns yo uifthe
pressure drops in one or mor eofthe tyres.

Informatio nontyrep ressures is shown in the
multifunctio ndisplay .After afew minute sof
driving ,the current tyr epressure of each tyre
is shown in the Service

For furthe rinformatio nondisplaying this

sure electronically" sectio n(Ypage 424).
Important safety notes It is the driver's responsibility to set the tyre
pressure to the recommende
dcoldt yrep res-
sure suitabl efor the operating situation
(Y page 420). Note tha tthe correct tyr epres-
sure for the current operating situatio nmust
first be taught-i ntothe tyr epressure monitor.
If ther eisas ubstantial loss of pressure, the
warnin gthreshold for the warnin gmessage is
aligned to the reference values taught-in.
Restart the tyr epressure monitor after
adjusting to the col dtyrep ressure
(Y page 424). The current pressures are
saved as new reference values. Thi swill
ensur ethataw arnin gm essage will only
appear if the tyr epressure drops significantly.
The tyr epressure monitor does not warn you
of an incorrectly set tyr epressure. Observe the note
sonthe recommende dtyrep ressure
(Y page 420).
The tyr epressure monitor is not able to warn
yo uofas uddenlossofp ressure, e.g .ifthe

event of asudde nlossofp ressure, bring the
vehicl etoah altbyb raking carefully. Avoid
abrupt steering manoeuvres.
The tyr epressure monitor ha sayelloww arn-
ing lamp in the instrument cluster for indicat- ing apressure loss or malfunction. Depending
on how the warning lamp flashe sorlights up,
at yrep ressure tha tist oo lo woram alfunc-

The curren ttyre pressure for each wheel
will be displayed in the multifunction dis-

After ateach-in period, the tyre pressure
monitor automatically detects new wheels or new sensors. As long as aclear allocation of
the tyre pressure values to the individual
wheels is not possible, the Tyre pressure Tyre pressure
monito ractive
monito ractive display message is shown
instead of the tyre pressure display. The tyre
pressures are already being monitored.
If an emergency spare wheel is fitted, for a
few minutes the system may continue to
show the tyre pressure of the wheel that has
been removed. If this occurs, not ethat the
value displayed for the position where the
spare wheel is fitted is not the same as the
curren ttyre pressure of the emergency spare
wheel.
Warning messages of the tyr epressure
monitor If the tyre pressure monitor detects
apres-
sure loss in one or more tyres, awarning mes-
sage is shown in the multifunction display and
the yellow tyre pressure monitor warning
lamp comes on.
R If the Please correc ttyre pressure
Please correc ttyre pressure
message appears in the multifunction dis- play, the tyre pressure in at least one tyre is
too low and must be corrected at the next
opportunity.
R If the Check tyre(s) Check tyre(s) message appears in
the multifunction display, the tyre pressure in one or more tyres has dropped signifi-
cantly and the tyres must be checked.
R If the Warnin gtyre defect
Warnin gtyre defect message
appears in the multifunction display, the
tyre pressure in one or more tyres has drop-
ped suddenly and the tyres must be
checked.
Observ ethe instructions and safety notes in
the display messages in the "Tyres" section
(Y page 322).
If the wheel position sonthe vehicle are inter-
changed, the tyre pressures may be displayed for the wrong position sfor as hort time. After
af ew minutes of driving, this is rectified and
the tyre pressures are displayed for the cor-
rect positions.
Restarting the tyr epressure monitor When you restart the tyre pressure monitor,
all existing warning messages are deleted and
the warning lamps go out. The monitor uses
the currently set tyre pressures as the refer-
enc evalues for monitoring. In most cases, the
tyre pressure monitor will automatically
detec tthe new referenc evalues after you
have changed the tyre pressure. However,
you can also define referenc evalues man-
ually as described here. The tyre pressure
monitor then monitors the new tyre pressure values.
X Use the table on the inside of the fuel filler
flap to ensure that the tyre pressure is set
correctly in all four tyres for the current
operatin gconditions.
Also observe the notes in the section on
tyre pressures (Y page 420).
X Make sure that the key is in position 2in the
ignition lock.

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
