200Vehicle caresensor identification code has
been matched to this wheel
position.
10. Proceed to the right side front wheel, and repeat the procedure
in Step 9.
11. Proceed to the right side rear wheel, and repeat the procedure
in Step 9.
12. Proceed to the left side rear wheel, and repeat the procedure
in Step 9. The horn sounds twice
to ind
icate the sensor identification
code has been matched to the left side rear wheel, and the tyre
pressure sensor matching
process is no longer active.
13. Turn off the ignition.
14. Set all four tyres to the recommended air pressure level
as indicated on the tyre pressure
information label.
15. Ensure the tyre loading status is set according selected pressure
3 100.Tread depth
Check tread depth at regular
intervals.
Tyres should be replaced for safety
reasons at a tread depth of 2-3 mm
(4 mm for winter tyres).
For safety reasons it is recommended
that the tread depth of the tyres on
one axle should not vary by more than 2 mm.
The legally permissible minimum
tread depth (1.6 mm) has been
reached when the tread has worn
down as far as one of the tread wear
indicators (TWI). Their position is
indicated by markings on the
sidewall.
If there is more wear at the front than
the rear, swap round front wheels and rear wheels periodically. Ensure that
the direction of rotation of the wheels
remains the same.
Tyres age, even if they are not used.
We recommend tyre replacement
every 6 years.
Changing tyre and wheel
size
If tyres of a different size than those
fitted at the factory are used, it may be necessary to reprogramme the
speedometer as well as the nominal
tyre pressure and make other vehicle modifications.
After converting to a different tyre
size, have the label with tyre
pressures replaced.

Vehicle care2019Warning
Use of unsuitable tyres or wheels
may lead to accidents and will
invalidate the vehicle type
approval.
Wheel covers
Wheel covers and tyres that are
factory approved for the respective
vehicle and comply with all of the
relevant wheel and tyre combination
requirements must be used.
If the wheel covers and tyres used are
not factory approved, the tyres must
not have a rim protection ridge.
Wheel covers must not impair brake
cooling.
9 Warning
Use of unsuitable tyres or wheel
covers could lead to sudden
pressure loss and thereby
accidents.
Steel wheels: When using locking
wheel bolts, do not attach wheel
covers.
Tyre chains
Tyre chains are only permitted on the
front wheels.
Always use fine mesh chains that add no more than 10 mm to the tyre tread
and the inboard sides (including chain lock).
9 Warning
Damage may lead to tyre blowout.
Tyre chains are only permitted on
tyres of size 195/65 R15,
205/55 R16 and 225/45 R17.
Tyre chains are not permitted on tyres of size 225/40 R18.
The use of tyre chains is not permitted on the temporary spare wheel.
Tyre repair kit Minor damage to the tyre tread can be
repaired with the tyre repair kit.
Do not remove foreign bodies from
the tyres.
Tyre damage exceeding 4 mm or that is at the tyre's sidewall near the rim
cannot be repaired with the tyre repair kit.9 Warning
Do not drive faster than 50 mph.
Do not use for a lengthy period.
Steering and handling may be
affected.
If you have a flat tyre:

210Vehicle careThe use of a spare wheel that is
smaller than the other wheels or in
combination with winter tyres could
affect driveability. Have the defective
tyre replaced as soon as possible.
The spare wheel is located in the load
compartment beneath the floor
covering. It is secured with a wing nut.
The spare wheel well is not designed for all permissible tyre sizes. If a
wheel wider than the spare wheel has
to be stowed in the load
compartment, it must be secured with a strap or, depending on the version,
with an extension bar.
Storing a replaced wheel in the
load compartment using a strap
Use the strap placed in the tool box.
Vehicle tools 3 194.
● Position the wheel on the load compartment floor close to one
sidewall of the load
compartment.
● Place the loop end of the strap through the front lashing eye of
the according side.
● Place the hook end of the strap through the loop and pull it until
the strap is fastened securely to
the lashing eye.
● Insert the strap through the spokes of the wheel as shown in
the illustration.
● Mount the hook to the rear lashing eye.
● Tighten the strap and secure it using the buckle.
Storing a replaced wheel in the
spare wheel well using an
extension bar
Use the extension bar placed in the
tool box. Vehicle tools 3 194.
● Turn the wing nut anticlockwise and remove temporary spare
wheel.

Vehicle care211
● Take the extension bar from thetool box and screw it on the bolt.
● Store the damaged wheel and secure it by turning the wing nut
clockwise.
The floor cover can be placed on the
projecting wheel.
Remove the extension bar before
fitting the spare wheel in the well after renewing or repairing the defective
wheel.
9 Warning
Storing a jack, a wheel or other
equipment in the load
compartment could cause injury if they are not fixed properly. During a sudden stop or a collision, looseequipment could strike someone.
Store jack and tools always in the
respective storage compartments
and secure them by fixing.
Place the damaged wheel always
in the load compartment secured
by the strap or in the spare wheel
well secured by the wing nut.
Temporary spare wheel
Caution
The use of the temporary spare
wheel could affect driveability.
Have the defective tyre renewed
or repaired as soon as possible.
Only mount one temporary spare
wheel. The permissible maximum
speed on the label on the temporary
spare wheel is only valid for the
factory-fitted tyre size.
If your vehicle gets a flat tyre in the
rear while towing another vehicle,
mount the temporary spare wheel in
the front and the full tyre in the rear.
Tyre chains 3 201.
Spare wheel with directional tyre If possible, fit directional tyres such
that they roll in the direction of travel.
The rolling direction is indicated by a
symbol (e.g. an arrow) on the
sidewall.
The following applies to tyres fitted
opposing the rolling direction:
● Driveability may be affected. Have the defective tyre renewed
or repaired as soon as possible.
● Drive particularly carefully on wet
and snow-covered road
surfaces.
