Fuses
Important safety notes
GWARNING
If you manipulate or bridge a faulty fuse or if you replace it with a fuse with a higher
amperage, the electric cables could be
overloaded. This could result in a fire.
There is a risk of an accident and injury.
Always replace faulty fuses with the speci-
fied new fuses having the correct amper-
age.
!Only use fuses that have been approved for
smart vehicles and which have the correct
fuse rating for the system concerned. Oth-
erwise, components or systems could be
damaged.
The fuses in your vehicle serve to close down
faulty circuits. If a fuse blows, all the com-
ponents on the circuit and their functions
stop operating.
Blown fuses must be replaced with fuses of the
same rating, which you can recognize by the
color and value. The fuse ratings are listed in
the fuse allocation chart (
Ypage 175).
If a newly inserted fuse also blows, have the
cause traced and rectified at a qualified
specialist workshop, e.g. an authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center.
Before changing a fuse
XSecure the vehicle against rolling away
(Ypage 100).
XSwitch off all electrical consumers.
XTurn the key to position 0in the ignition
lock and remove it (Ypage 87). All indica-
tor lamps in the instrument cluster must be off.
The fuses are located in various fuse boxes:
RFuse box in the front area
RFuse box in the glove compartment
Fuse box in the front area
Pay attention to the "Important safety notes"
(Ypage 173).
GWARNING
If the windshield wipers begin to operate
while the service cover is open, there is a
danger of injury from the wiper arms. There
is a risk of injury.
Always switch off the windshield wipers
and the ignition before opening the ser-
vice cover.
!Make sure that no moisture can enter the
fuse box when the cover is open.
!When closing the cover, make sure that it
is lying correctly on the fuse box. Moisture
seeping in or dirt could otherwise impair
the operation of the fuses.

Regular checking of wheels and tires
GWARNING
Damaged tires can cause tire inflation
pressure loss. As a result, you could lose
control of your vehicle. There is a risk of
accident.
Check the tires regularly for signs of dam- age and replace any damaged tires imme-
diately.
Regularly check the wheels and tires of your
vehicle for damage, at least once a month, as
well as after driving on rough roads. Damaged
wheels can cause a loss of tire pressure. Pay
particular attention to damage such as:
Rcuts in the tires
Rpunctures in the tires
Rtears in the tires
Rbulges on tires
Rdeformation or severe corrosion on wheels
Regularly check the tire tread depth and the
condition of the tread across the whole width
of the tire (
Ypage 178). If necessary, turn the
front wheels to full lock in order to inspect
the inner side of the tire surface.
All wheels must have a valve cap to protect the
valve against dirt and moisture. Do not fit
anything onto the valve other than the stand-
ard valve cap or other valve caps approved for
your vehicle by smart. Do not use any other
valve caps or systems, e.g. tire pressure mon-
itoring systems.
Regularly check the pressure of all the tires
particularly prior to long trips. Adjust the
tire pressure as necessary (
Ypage 180).
The service life of tires depends, among
other things, on the following factors:
RDriving style
RTire pressure
RDistance covered
Notes on tire profile
GWARNING
Insufficient tire tread will reduce tire
traction. The tire is no longer able to dis-
sipate water. This means that on wet road
surfaces, the risk of hydroplaning increa-
ses, in particular where speed is not adap- ted to suit the driving conditions. There is
a risk of accident.
If the tire pressure is too high or too low,
tires may exhibit different levels of wear
at different locations on the tire tread.
Thus, you should regularly check the tread
depth and the condition of the tread across
the entire width of all tires.
Minimum tire tread depth for:
RSummer tires: 00CEin (3 mm)
RM+S tires: 00CFin (4 mm)
For safety reasons, replace the tires before
the legally prescribed limit for the mini-
mum tire tread depth is reached.
Indicator 0043shows which position the bar
marking (arrow) for tread wear is integrated
into the tire tread.
Treadwear indicators (TWI) are required by
law. Six indicators are positioned on the tire
tread. They are visible once a tread depth of
approximately 00CDin (1.6 mm) has been
reached. If this is the case, the tire is so worn
that it must be replaced.
Selecting, mounting and replacing
tires
ROnly mount tires and wheels of the same
type and make.
Exception: it is permissible to fit a dif-
ferent type or make in the event of a flat
tire.
ROnly mount tires of the correct size onto the
wheels.
178Operation
>> Wheels and tires.

Direction of rotation
Tires with a specified direction of rotation
have additional benefits, e.g. if there is a
risk of hydroplaning. These advantages can
only be gained if the tires are fitted corre-
sponding to the direction of rotation.
An arrow on the sidewall of the tire indicates
its correct direction of rotation.
Storing wheels
Store wheels that are not being used in a cool,
dry and preferably dark place. Protect the
tires from oil, grease, gasoline and diesel.
Mounting a wheel
Preparing the vehicle
XMake sure that you have the appropriate
tire-changing tools. For further informa-
tion inquire at any smart center.

Securing the vehicle to prevent it from
rolling away
XOn level ground:place chocks or other suit-
able items under the front and rear of the
wheel that is diagonally opposite the wheel
you wish to change.
XOn light downhill gradients: place chocks
or other suitable items in front of the
wheels of the front and rear axle.
Raising the vehicle
GWARNING
If you do not position the jack correctly at
the appropriate jacking point of the vehi- cle, the jack could tip over with the vehicle
raised. There is a risk of injury.
Only position the jack at the appropriate
jacking point of the vehicle. The base of the jack must be positioned vertically,
directly under the jacking point of the
vehicle.

Observe the following when raising the vehi-
cle:
Rmake sure you have a suitable jack and
wheel wrench. If used incorrectly, the jack
could tip over with the vehicle raised.
For further information inquire at any
smart center.
Rthe jack is designed only to raise and hold
the vehicle for a short time while a wheel
is being changed. It is not suited for per-
forming maintenance work under the vehi-
cle.
Ravoid changing the wheel on uphill and
downhill slopes.
Rbefore raising the vehicle, secure it from
rolling away by applying the parking brake
and inserting wheel chocks. Never disen-
gage the parking brake while the vehicle is
raised.
Rthe jack must be placed on a firm, flat and
non-slip surface. On a loose surface, a
large, flat load-bearing underlay must be
used. On a slippery surface, a non-slip
underlay must be used, e.g. rubber mats.
Rdo not use wooden blocks or similar objects
as a jack underlay. Otherwise, the jack will
not be able to achieve its load-bearing
capacity due to the restricted height.
Rmake sure that the distance between the
underside of the tires and the ground does
not exceed 1.2 in (3 cm).
Rnever place your hands and feet under the
raised vehicle.
Rdo not lie under the vehicle.
Rdo not start the engine when the vehicle is
raised.
Rdo not open or close a door or the tailgate
while the vehicle is raised.
Rmake sure that no persons are present in the
vehicle when the vehicle is raised.
!The jack is designed exclusively for
jacking up the vehicle at the jacking
points. Otherwise, your vehicle could be
damaged.
