12 V sockets
General notes
X Turn the SmartKey to position 1 in the igni-
tion lock ( Y page 149).
The sockets can be used for accessories with a maximum draw of 180 W (15 A). Accesso-
ries include such items as lamps or chargers
for mobile phones.
If you use the sockets for long periods when
the engine is switched off, the battery may
discharge.
An emergency cut-out 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.

Checking coolant level
GWARNING
Certain components in the engine compart-
ment, such as the engine, radiator and parts
of the exhaust system, can become very hot.
Working in the engine compartment poses a
risk of injury.
Where possible, let the engine cool down and touch only the components described in the
following.
GWARNING
The engine cooling system is pressurized, par-ticularly when the engine is warm. When
opening the cap, you could be scalded by hotcoolant spraying out. There is a risk of injury.
Let the engine cool down before opening the
cap. Wear eye and hand protection when
opening the cap. Open the cap slowly half a
turn to allow pressure to escape.
Only check the coolant level when the vehicle
is on a level surface and the engine has cooled down.
X Turn the SmartKey to position 2 in the igni-
tion lock ( Y page 149).
On vehicles with KEYLESS-GO, press the
Start/Stop button twice ( Y page 149).
X Check the coolant temperature display in
the instrument cluster.
The coolant temperature must be below
158 ‡ (70 †).
XSlowly turn cap : half a turn counter-
clockwise and allow excess pressure to
escape.
X Turn cap : further counter-clockwise and
remove it.
If the coolant is at the level of marker bar =
in the filler neck when cold, there is enough coolant in coolant expansion tank ;.
If the coolant level is approximately 0.6 in
(1.5 cm) above marker bar = in the fuel
filler neck when warm, there is enough
coolant in expansion tank ;.
X If necessary, add coolant that has been tes-
ted and approved by Mercedes-Benz.
X Replace cap : and turn it clockwise as far
as it will go.

iVehicles equipped with MOExtended tires
are not equipped with a TIREFIT kit at the
factory. It is therefore recommended that
you additionally equip your vehicle with a
TIREFIT kit if you mount tires that do not
feature run-flat properties, e.g. winter tires.
A TIREFIT kit may be obtained from a quali-
fied specialist workshop.
MOExtended tires (tires with run-flat
properties)
General notes
With MOExtended tires (tires with run flat
characteristics), you can continue to drive
your vehicle even if there is a total loss of
pressure in one or more tires. The affected
tire must not show any clearly visible damage.
You can recognize MOExtended tires by the
MOExtended marking which appears on the
sidewall of the tire. You will find this marking next to the tire size designation, the load-
bearing capacity and the speed index
( Y page 349). MOExtended tires may only be used in con-
junction with an active tire pressure monitor.
If a pressure loss warning message
appears in the multifunction display:
R observe the instructions in the display mes-
sages ( Y page 255).
R check the tire for damage.
R if driving on, observe the following notes.
The driving distance possible in run-flat mode is approximately 50 miles (80 km) when the
vehicle is partially laden and approximately
18 miles (30 km) when the vehicle is fully
laden.
In addition to the vehicle load, the driving dis-tance possible depends upon:
R vehicle speed
R road condition
R outside temperature
The driving distance possible in run-flat mode may be reduced by extreme driving condi-
tions/maneuvers, or it can be increased
through a moderate style of driving.
The driving distance possible in run-flat modeis counted from the moment the tire pressure
loss warning appears in the multifunction dis-
play.
You must not exceed a maximum speed of
50 mph (80 km/h).
iWhen replacing one or all tires, please
observe the following specifications for
your vehicle's tires:
R size
R type and
R the "MOExtended" mark
If a tire has gone flat and cannot be
replaced with a MOExtended tire, a stand-
ard tire may be used as a temporary meas- ure. Make sure that you use the proper size
and type (summer or winter tire).
iVehicles equipped with MOExtended tires
are not equipped with a TIREFIT kit at the
factory. It is therefore recommended that
you additionally equip your vehicle with a

XDo not remove any foreign objects which
have penetrated the tire, e.g. screws or

panying TIREFIT sticker and the tire infla-
tion compressor from the stowage well
underneath the cargo compartment floor
( Y page 314).
X Affix part : of the TIREFIT sticker to the

ant bottle :.
X Place tire sealant bottle : head down-
wards into recess ; of the tire inflation
compressor.
X Remove the cap from valve C on the faulty
tire.
X Screw filler hose D onto valve C.
X Insert connector ? into the cigarette
lighter socket ( Y page 284) or into a 12 V
socket ( Y page 284) in your vehicle.
X Turn the SmartKey to position 1 in the igni-
tion lock ( Y page 149).
X Press on/off switch = on the tire inflation
compressor to I.
The tire inflation compressor is switched
on. The tire is inflated.
iFirst, tire sealant is pumped into the tire.
The pressure can briefly rise to approx-
imately 500 kPa (5 bar/73 psi).
Do not switch off the tire inflation com-
pressor during this phase.
X Allow the tire inflation compressor to run
for five minutes. The tire should then have
attained a pressure of at least 180 kPa
(1.8 bar/26 psi).
If a pressure of 180 kPa (1.8 bar/26 psi) has been attained after five minutes, see "Tire
pressure reached" ( Y page 318).
If a tire pressure of 180 kPa (1.8 bar/26 psi) has not been attained after five minutes, see"Tire pressure not reached" ( Y page 318).
iIf tire sealant leaks out, allow it to dry. It
can then be removed like a layer of film.
If your clothes are soiled with tire sealant,
have them cleaned with perchloroethylene
at a dry cleaner as soon as possible.
