Dynamic Stability Control,
DSC
Principle DSC prevents the driven wheels losing traction
when you pull away from rest or accelerate.
DSC is also able to detect unstable driving
conditions such as loss of traction at the rear
or vehicle slip over the front wheels. DSC re‐
duces engine output and applies the brakes at
individual wheels, helping, within the limits im‐
posed by the laws of physics, to keep the vehi‐
cle safely on course.
Note Adapt the driving style to the situation as it is
always the driver's responsibility to adapt a
suitable driving style.
Not even DSC can overcome the laws of phys‐
ics.
Do not limit the additional safety afforded by
this system by taking driving risks.

Tyre sizes
The pressure values apply for the tyre sizes
categorised by the vehicle manufacturer as
suitable and the tyre makes recommended for
the respective vehicle type.
More information regarding wheels and tyres
can be enquired with a Service Partner or a
qualified specialist workshop.
Tyre tread
Summer tyres
The tyre tread depth should not be less than
3 mm, 0.12 in.
Below a tread depth of 3 mm, approximately
0.12 in, there is a high risk of aquaplaning.
Winter tyres The tyre tread depth should not be less than4 mm, approximately 0.16 in.
Below a tread depth of 4 mm, approximately
0.16 in, suitability for vehicle operation in win‐
ter is restricted.
Minimum tread depth
Wear indicators are distributed across the tyre
circumference and have the legally prescribed
minimum height of 1.6 mm, approximately
0.06 in.
They are identified on the tyre's side wall by
TWI, Tread Wear Indicator.
Tyre damage
General Inspect tyres frequently for damage, the pres‐
ence of foreign bodies and wear.
Notes
Vehicle behaviour that is an indication of tyre
damage or other faults:▷Unusual vibrations during the journey.▷Unusual vehicle response, such as pro‐
nounced pulling to the left or right.
Damage can be caused by, for example, run‐
ning over kerbs, road damage etc.
WARNING
Damaged tyres can lose tyre inflation
pressure, which can lead to loss of control over
the vehicle. Danger of accidents. If you get a
note about tyre damage during the journey,
immediately reduce speed and come to a halt.
Have the wheels and tyres checked. To do
this, carefully drive to the nearest Service Part‐
ner or a qualified specialist workshop. If neces‐
sary, have the vehicle towed or transported
there.◀
WARNING
Damaged tyres can lose tyre inflation
pressure, which can lead to loss of control over
the vehicle. Danger of accidents. Do not repair
damaged tyres, have them renewed instead.◀
Age of tyres
Recommendation
Irrespective of wear, change tyres after
six years at the latest.
Date of manufacture
On the tyre side wall:
DOT … 0115: the tyre was made in the
1st week of 2015.

ted speed for the tyres fitted must be dis‐
played in the driver's field of view. The sticker
is available from a Service Partner or a qualified
specialist workshop.
If winter tyres are fitted, observe and comply
with the respectively permitted maximum
speed.
Interchanging front and rear wheels
The manufacturer of your vehicle advises
against interchanging the front and rear
wheels. This could impair vehicle handling
Such a change is not permitted in vehicles with
different tyre or rim dimensions on the front
and rear axles.
Tyre storage
Store wheels and tyres in a cool, dry and pref‐
erably dark place when not in use.
Protect tyres against contamination from oil,
grease and fuel.
Do not exceed the maximum tyre pressure in‐
dicated on the tyre's side wall.
Remedying flat tyres Safety measures▷Park the vehicle on a solid surface and as
far away from moving traffic as possible.▷Switch on hazard warning lights.▷Protect the vehicle against rolling, by ap‐
plying the parking brake.▷Engage the steering wheel lock in the
straight ahead position of the wheels.▷Allow all vehicle occupants get out of the
vehicle and guide them out of the danger
area, for example behind the crash barrier.▷Set up warning triangle an appropriate dis‐
tance away.Mobility system
Principle With the mobility system, minor tyre damage
can be quickly sealed, to allow you to drive on.
To do that, liquid sealant is pumped into the
tyres which encloses the damage from the in‐ side when it hardens.
The compressor can be used to check the tyre
inflation pressure.
Notes▷Please observe the notes on the applica‐
tion of the Mobility system which are on
the compressor and the sealant container.▷Applying the Mobility system can be inef‐
fective for tyre damage as from a size of
approximately 4 mm.▷Contact a Service Partner or a qualified
specialist workshop if you are unable to put
the tyre back in operation.▷If possible, foreign matter that has penetra‐
ted the tyre should remain inside the tyre.▷Remove the speed limit sticker from the
sealant container and attach to the steer‐
ing wheel.▷Using sealants can damage the TPM wheel
electronics. If sealant is used, check the
electronics as soon as you get an opportu‐
nity and have them replaced if necessary.
DANGER
A blocked exhaust pipe or inadequate
ventilation can allow harmful exhaust fumes to
penetrate the vehicle. The exhaust gas con‐
tains carbon monoxide, which is colourless and
odourless, but highly toxic. In enclosed spaces,
the exhaust fumes can also build up outside
the vehicle. Danger of fatal injury. Keep the ex‐
haust pipe clear and ensure sufficient ventila‐
tion.◀
Storage
Mobility system is located under boot floor.

Changing a wheel
Notes
When using sealants, immediate wheel change
in the event of loss of tyre pressure in case of
puncture is not required.
As a result, no spare wheel is available.
The tools for changing wheels are available as
optional accessories from a Service Partner or
a qualified specialist workshop.
Jack mounting points
The jack mounting points are located in the il‐
lustrated positions.
