Emergency spare wheel
Important safety notes
G
WARNING
The wheel/tyre dimensions and the tyre type of the spare wheel/emergency spare wheel
and the wheel to be replaced may differ. Fit-
ting a spare wheel/emergency spare wheel
may severely impair the driving characteris-
tics. There is a risk of accident.
To prevent hazardous situations:
R Adapt your driving style accordingly and
drive carefully.
R Never fit more than one spare wheel/emer-
gency spare wheel if the dimensions are
different to those of the wheel being
replaced.
R Only use a spare wheel/emergency spare
wheel briefly if the dimensions are different to those of the wheel being replaced.
R Do not switch off ESP ®
.
R Have the spare wheel/emergency spare
wheel in question replaced at the nearest
qualified specialist workshop. Make sure
that the wheel/tyre dimensions and tyre
type are correct. When using an emergency spare wheel or spare
wheel of a different size, you must not exceed
the maximum speed of 80 km/h.
Snow chains must not be fitted to emergency
spare wheels. General notes
Fitting the emergency spare wheel is described under "Fitting a wheel" (Y page 357).
You should regularly check the pressure of the
emergency spare wheel, particularly prior to
long trips, and correct the pressure as neces-
sary (Y page 351). The value on the wheel or as
given in the "Wheels and tyres" section is valid
(Y page 371).
An emergency spare wheel may also be fitted
against the direction of rotation. Observe the
time restriction on use as well as the speed lim- itation specified on the emergency spare wheel.
Replace the tyres after six years at the latest,
regardless of wear. This also applies to the
emergency spare wheel.
i If you are driving with the emergency spare
wheel fitted, the tyre pressure loss warning
system or the tyre pressure monitor cannot
function reliably. Only restart the tyre pres-
sure loss warning system or tyre pressure
monitor when the defective wheel has been
replaced with a new wheel.
6 Use of snow chains not permitted. Observe the notes in the "Snow chains" section. Emergency spare wheel
367Wheels and tyres Z

Vehicles with tyre pressure monitor:
after
fitting an emergency spare wheel, the system
may still display the tyre pressure of the
removed wheel for a few minutes. The value
displayed for the position where the emer-
gency spare wheel is fitted is not the same as the current tyre pressure of the emergency
spare wheel. Removing/stowing the emergency
spare wheel
Vehicles with a "Minispare" emergency
spare wheel under the luggage com-
partment floor Observe the instructions and safety notes in the
"Fitting a wheel" section (Y page 357).

Mercedes-AMG vehicles with a collaps-
ible emergency spare wheel under the
luggage compartment floor !
Only place the collapsible emergency spare
wheel in the vehicle when it is dry. Otherwise,
moisture may get into the vehicle.

tion compressor is set to 0.
X Insert connector ?into the socket in the rear
centre console or in the socket in the luggage
compartment.
Socket in the rear compartment:
(Y page 310)
Socket in the luggage compartment:
(Y page 310)
Only operate the tyre inflation compressor
using the socket in the rear or in the luggage
compartment, even if the ignition is turned
off.
An emergency cut-off ensures that the on-
board voltage does not drop too low. If the on-
board voltage is too low, the power to the
sockets is automatically cut. This ensures
that there is sufficient power to start the
engine.
Observe the further information on sockets
(Y page 309).
X Turn the key to position 1in the ignition lock
(Y page 146). X

yellow label of the emergency spare wheel.
X When the specified tyre pressure has been
reached, press on and off switch Aon the
electric air pump to 0.
The tyre inflation compressor is switched off.
X Turn the key to position 0in the ignition lock.
X If the tyre pressure is higher than the speci-
fied pressure, press pressure release valve
button :until the correct tyre pressure has
been reached.

Useful information
i This Owner's Manual describes all models,
series and optional equipment for your vehi-
cle that were available at the time of going to
press. National variations are possible. Note
that your vehicle may not be equipped with all
of the functions described. This is also the
case for systems and functions relevant to
safety.
i Read the information on qualified specialist
workshops: (Y page 25). Information on technical data
i The technical data was determined in
accordance with EU Directives. All data
applies to the vehicle's standard equipment.
The data may therefore differ for vehicles with
optional equipment. You can obtain further
information from a Mercedes-Benz Service
Centre. Vehicle electronics
Tampering with the engine electron-
ics
! Only have work carried out on the engine
electronics and its associated parts, such as
control units, sensors, actuating components and connector leads, at a qualified specialist
workshop. Vehicle components may other-
wise wear more quickly and the vehicle's
operating permit may be invalidated. Retrofitting two-way radios and
mobile phones (RF transmitters)
G
WARNING
If RF transmitters are tampered with or not
properly retrofitted, the electromagnetic radi- ation they emit can interfere with the vehicle
electronics. This may jeopardise the opera-
tional safety of the vehicle. There is a risk of an
accident. You should have all work on electrical and
electronic components carried out at a quali- fied specialist workshop. G
WARNING
If you operate RF transmitters incorrectly in
the vehicle, the electromagnetic radiation
could interfere with the vehicle electronics,
e.g.:
R if the RF transmitter is not connected to an
exterior aerial
R the exterior aerial has been fitted incor-
rectly or is not a low-reflection type
This could jeopardise the operating safety of
the vehicle. There is a risk of an accident.
Have the low-reflection exterior aerial fitted at
a qualified specialist workshop. When oper-
ating RF transmitters in the vehicle, always
connect them to the low-reflection exterior
aerial.
! The operating permit may be invalidated if
the instructions for installation and use of RF transmitters are not observed.
In particular, the following conditions must be
complied with:
R only approved wavebands may be used.
R observe the maximum permissible output
in these wavebands.
R only approved aerial positions may be
used.
Excessive levels of electromagnetic radiation
may cause damage to your health and to the
health of others. The use of an exterior aerial
takes into consideration the scientific discus-
sion surrounding the possible health risk posed by electromagnetic fields.
Observe the notes on operating mobile phones
(Y page 310).
The following aerial positions may be used for
the correct installation of RF transmitters: 372
Vehicle electronicsTechnical data

Approved aerial positions
:
Rear roof area
; Rear wing
i On the rear wing, it is recommended that
you position the aerial on the side of the vehi-
cle closest to the centre of the road.
Use Technical Specification ISO/TS 21609
(Road Vehicles – "EMC guidelines for fitting
aftermarket radio frequency transmitting equip- ment") when retrofitting RF (radio frequency)
transmitters. Comply with the legal require-
ments for add-on parts.
If your vehicle has fittings for two-way radio
equipment, use the power supply or aerial con-
nections intended for use with the basic wiring.
Be sure to observe the manufacturer's addi-
tional instructions when installing.
Deviations with respect to wavebands, maxi-
mum transmission outputs or aerial positions
must be approved by Mercedes-Benz.
The maximum transmission output (PEAK) at the base of the aerial must not exceed the followingvalues: Waveband Maximum
transmission output Short wave
3 - 54 MHz 100 W
4 m waveband
74 - 88 MHz 30 W
2 m waveband
144 - 174 MHz 50 W

380 - 460 MHz 10 W Waveband Maximum
transmission output 70 cm waveband
400 - 460 MHz 35 W
Mobile communications
(2G/3G/4G) 10 W
The following can be used in the vehicle without
restrictions:
R RF transmitters with a maximum transmis-
sion output of up to 100 mW
R RF transmitters with transmitter frequencies
in the 380 - 410 MHz waveband and a maxi-
mum transmission output of up to 2 W
(trunked radio/Tetra)
R mobile telephones (2G/3G/4G)
There are no restrictions when positioning the
aerial on the outside of the vehicle for the fol-
lowing wavebands:
