184Vehicle careTyre pressures in Info-Display
The current tyre pressures can be
shown in the menu item Tyres in the
Board Computer menu. Press BC on
the Infotainment system and select
the menu item.
The tyre pressure monitoring system
automatically detects the vehicle
load. A corresponding message may appear on the Info-Display if
inconsistent tyre pressures are
detected. In some versions, the
message is displayed in abbreviated
form.
For example, the following messages can be displayed:
A graphic indicating the left rear tyre
is shown together with the current tyre
pressure; slight pressure deviation.
Reduce speed. Check tyre pressure
at next opportunity with an
appropriate gauge and correct if
necessary.
On the Colour-Info-Display, this
message will appear in yellow.A graphic indicating the front left tyre
is shown together with the current tyre
pressure; significant pressure
deviation or direct pressure loss.
Steer out of the flow of traffic as
quickly as possible without
endangering other vehicles. Stop and
check the tyres. Mount the spare
wheel if necessary 3 190.
On the Colour-Info-Display, this
message will appear in red.

Vehicle care187Wheel 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.
Tyre chains
Tyre chains are only permitted on the
front wheels.
They must be fitted to the tyres
symmetrically in order to achieve a
concentric fit.
9 Warning
Damage may lead to tyre blowout.
Special snow chains are only
permitted when they are designed
with a rotating chain belt on the tyre
tread, no chain links on the wheel
inboard sides and the chains add no
more than 12 mm to the tyre tread.
For further information regarding
correct snow chain usage for the tyre
size, contact a specialised vehicle
parts dealer or snow chain
manufacture. Tyre chains are only
permitted on tyres of size
235/60 R17 and 235/55 R18.General
The use of tyre chains is not permitted on the temporary spare wheel.
Tyre repair kit
Minor damage to the tyre tread or
sidewall 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.
In vehicles with a tyre repair kit, there may not be a jack and vehicle tool kit.

Vehicle care193Front arm position of the lifting
platform centrically under the recess
of the sill.
Spare wheel
Temporary spare wheel
Some vehicles are equipped with a tyre repair kit instead of a spare
wheel.
The temporary spare wheel is
designed for use on your vehicle only.
If mounting a spare wheel which is
different from the other wheels, this
wheel might be classified as a
temporary spare wheel and the
corresponding speed limits apply,
even though no label indicates this.
Seek the assistance of a workshop to
check the applicable speed limit.
Use of the temporary spare wheel
could affect driveability, particularly if
using winter tyres. Have the defective
tyre renewed as soon as possible and have the wheel balanced and fitted tothe vehicle.Caution
The use of a spare wheel that issmaller than the other wheels or in combination with winter tyres
could affect driveability. Have the defective tyre replaced as soon as
possible.
The temporary spare wheel is located in the load compartment below the
floor cover and is secured with a
screw-in retainer.
Push both levers on the floor cover
towards the handle and pull up the
cover by the handle. Hang the hook
to the upper part of the tailgate
opening.
Vehicle tools 3 179.
Remove the retainer by rotating it
anticlockwise and remove temporary
spare wheel from the spare wheel
well.
Only mount one temporary spare
wheel. Do not drive faster than
80 km/h. Take curves slowly. Do not
use for a long period of time.
When the temporary spare wheel is
fitted, do not take the vehicle through an automatic vehicle wash with guide
rails. The temporary spare wheel may get caught on the rails, causing
damage to the tyre, wheel and other
vehicle parts.
The use of tyre chains is not permitted
on the temporary spare wheel.
Tyre chains 3 187.

194Vehicle careDirectional tyres
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
and fit it instead of the spare
wheel.
● Do not drive faster than 80 km/h.
● Drive particularly carefully on wet
and snow-covered road
surfaces.9 Warning
Storing a jack, a wheel or other
equipment in the load
compartment could cause injury if they are not fixed in place
properly. During a sudden stop or
a collision, loose equipment could
cause personal injury or damage
to the vehicle.
Always store the jack and vehicle
tools in their respective storage
compartments and secure them properly.
Always place the damaged wheel
in the load compartment, secured
in the spare wheel well with the
screw-in retainer.Jump starting
Do not start with quick charger.
A vehicle with a discharged battery can be started using jump leads and
the battery of another vehicle.9 Warning
Be extremely careful when starting
with jump leads. Any deviation
from the following instructions can
lead to injuries or damage caused
by battery explosion or damage to the electrical systems of both
vehicles.
9 Warning
Avoid contact of the battery with
eyes, skin, fabrics and painted
surfaces. The fluid contains
sulphuric acid which can cause
injuries and damage in the event
of direct contact.
● Never expose the battery to naked flames or sparks.

specific data
The combined total of front and rear
axle loads must not exceed the
permissible gross vehicle weight. For
example, if the front axle is bearing its
maximum permissible load, the rear
axle can only bear a load that is equal
to the gross vehicle weight minus the front axle load.
