Removing a wheel
!Mercedes-AMG vehicles with ceramic-
brake disc: during removal and repositioning
of the wheel, the wheel rim can strike the
ceramic-brake disc and damage it. Therefore,
you should proceed carefully and get a sec-
ond person assist to you. Alternatively, you
can use a second alignment bolt.
!Do not place wheel bolts in sand or on a dirty
surface. The bolt and wheel hub threads could
otherwise be damaged when you screw them
in.
When mounting/removing wheels, and for as
long as the wheels are removed, avoid applying
any external force on the brake disks. This could
impair the level of comfort when braking.
XUnscrew the uppermost wheel bolt com-
pletely.
XScrew alignment bolt :into the thread
instead of the wheel bolt.
XUnscrew the remaining wheel bolts fully.
XRemove the wheel.
Mounting a new wheel
GWARNING
Oiled or greased wheel bolts or damaged
wheel bolts/hub threads can cause the wheel bolts to come loose. As a result, you could
lose a wheel while driving. There is a risk of
accident.
Never oil or grease wheel bolts. In the event of
damage to the threads, contact a qualified
specialist workshop immediately. Have the
damaged wheel bolts or hub threads
replaced/renewed. Do not continue driving.
GWARNING
If you tighten the wheel bolts or wheel nuts
when the vehicle is raised, the jack could tip
over. There is a risk of injury.
Only tighten the wheel bolts or wheel nuts
when the vehicle is on the ground.
Always pay attention to the instructions and
safety notes in the "Changing a wheel" section
(
Ypage 379).
Only use wheel bolts that have been designed
for the wheel and the vehicle. For safety rea-
sons, Mercedes-Benz recommends that you
only use wheel bolts which have been approved for Mercedes-Benz vehicles and the respective
wheel.
!Mercedes-AMG vehicles with ceramic-
brake disc: during removal and repositioning
of the wheel, the wheel rim can strike the
ceramic-brake disc and damage it. Therefore,
you should proceed carefully and get a sec-
ond person assist to you. Alternatively, you
can use a second alignment bolt.
!To prevent damage to the paintwork, hold
the wheel securely against the wheel hub
while screwing in the first wheel bolt.

Lowering the vehicle
GWAR NING
The wheels could work loose ifthe wheel nuts
and bolts are not tightened to the specifie d
tightening torque. There isa risk of acc ident.
Have the tightening torque immediately
checked at a qualified specialist workshop
after a wheel ischanged.
XTurn the crank of the jack counter-clock wise
unt ilthe veh icle isonce again standing firmly
on the ground.
XPlace the jack to one side.
XTighten the wheel bolts evenly ina crosswise
pattern inthe sequence indicated (: toA). The specified tightening torque is
96lb-ft
(1 30 Nm) .
XTurn the jack back to its initial position.
XStow the jack and the rest of the vehicle tools
in the trunk again.
XMercedes-AMG vehicles and vehicles
with AMG equipment: insert the cover into
the outer sill.
XCheck the tire pressure of the ne wlymounted
wheel and adjust it if necessary.
Observe the recommended tire pressure
(
Ypage 363).
When you are driving with the collapsible spare
wheel mounte d,the tire pressure loss warning
system or the tire pressure monitor cannot func-
tion reliably. Only restart the tire pressure loss
warning system or tire pressure monitor when
the defective wheel has been replaced with a
new wheel.
Vehicles with a tire pressure controlsys-
tem: all installed wheels must be equipped with
functioning sensors.
Wheel-tire combination
You can ask for information regarding permitted
wheel-tire co mbinations at an authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center.
!For safety reasons, Mercedes-Benz recom-
men dsthat you only use tires and wheels
whic h have been approved by Mercedes-Benz
specifically for your vehicle.
These tires have been specially adapted for
use with the control systems, such as ABS or
ESP
®, and are marked as follows:
RMO = Mercedes-Benz Original
RMOE = Mercedes-Benz Original Extended
(tires featuring run-flat characteristics)
RMO1 = Mercedes-Benz Original (only cer-
tain AMG tires)
Mercedes-Benz Original Extended tires may
only be used on wheels that have been spe-
cifically approved by Mercedes-Benz.
Only use tires, wheels or accessories tested
and approved by Mercedes-Benz. Certain
characteristics, e.g. handling, vehicle noise
emissions or fuel consumption, may other-
wise be adverselyaffected. In addition, when
driv ingwith a load, tire dimension variations
could cause the tires to come into contact

with the bodywork and axle components. This
could result in damage to the tires or the vehi-
cle.
Mercedes-Benz accepts no liability for dam-
age resulting from the use of tires, wheels or
accessories other than those tested and
approved.
Information on tires, wheels and approved
combinations can be obtained from any quali-
fied specialist workshop.
!Retreaded tires are neither tested nor rec-
ommended by Mercedes-Benz, since previ-
ous damage cannot always be detected on
retreaded tires. As a result, Mercedes-Benz
cannot guarantee vehicle safety if retreaded
tires are mounted. Do not mount used tires if you have no information about their previous
usage.
The recommended pressures for various oper-
ating conditions can be found:
Ron the Tire and Loading Information placard
on the B-pillar on the driver's side
Rin the tire pressure table in the fuel filler flap
Observe the notes on recommended tire pres-
sures under various operating conditions
(
Ypage 363).
Check tire pressures regularly, and only when
the tires are cold. Comply with the maintenance
recommendations of the tire manufacturer in
the vehicle document wallet.
Notes on the vehicle equipment – always equip
the vehicle with:
Rwith tires of the same size on a given axle (left
and right)
Rthe same type of tires at a given time (summer tires, winter tires, MOExtended tires)
Exception: it is permissible to install a differ-
ent type or make in the event of a flat t
ire.
Observe the "MOExtended tires (tires with
run-flat characteristics" section (
Ypage 343).
Vehicles 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 qualified specialist workshop.
