Center brake light
This light uses LED technology for operation. In
case of a malfunction, contact a dealer’s service
center or another qualified service center or re‐
pair shop.
Changing wheels InformationThe vehicle may be equipped with conven‐tional tires with the Mobility System, refer to
page 226, or with run-flat tires, refer to
page 226.
No spare tire is available in the case of a flat
tire.
The suitable tools for changing wheels are
available as accessories from a dealer’s service
center or another qualified service center or re‐
pair shop.
Safety measures
▷Park the vehicle as far as possible from
passing traffic and on solid ground. Switch
on the hazard warning system.▷Set the parking brake and move the selec‐
tor lever to position P.▷Have all vehicle occupants get out of the
vehicle and ensure that they remain out‐
side the immediate area in a safe place,
such as behind a guardrail.▷If a warning triangle or portable hazard
warning lamp is required, set it up on the
roadside at an appropriate distance from
the rear of the vehicle.▷Change the wheel only on a level, firm sur‐
face which is not slippery. The vehicle or
the jack could slip to the side if you attempt
to raise the vehicle on a soft or slippery sur‐
face such as snow, ice, tiles, etc.▷Do not use a wooden block or similar object
as a support base for the jack, as this would
prevent it from extending to its full support
height and reduce its load-carrying ca‐
pacity.▷To avoid serious or fatal injury: never lie un‐
der the vehicle, and never start the engine
while it is supported by the jack.
