Cleaning th epaintwork
!Do not affix:
Rstickers
Rfilms
Rmagnetic plates or similar items
to painted surfaces. You could otherwise
damage the paintwork.
Scratches, corrosived eposits, areas affected by
corrosiona nd damage caused by inadequate
care cannot always be completely repaired. In
such cases ,visit aqualified specialist workshop.
XRemove dirt immediately, where possible,
while avoidingr ubbingtoo hard.
XSoak insect remainsw ith insect remover and
rinse off the treated areas afterwards.
XSoak bird droppings with water and rinse off
the treated areas afterwards.
XRemove coolant, brakef luid, tree resin,oils,
fuels and greases by rubbingg ently with a
clot hsoaked in petroleum ether or lighter
fluid.
XUse tar remover to remove tar stains.
XUse silicone remover to remove wax. If water no longer forms "beads" on the paint
surface, use the paint care products recommen-
ded and approved by Mercedes-Benz. This is the
case approximately everyt
hree to five months,
depending on the climat econdition sand the
care productu sed.
If dirt has penetrate dthe paint surfaceorift he
paint has becom edull, the paint cleaner recom-
mended and approved by Mercedes-Benz
should be used.
Do not use these care products in the sun or on
the hood while the hood is hot.
XUse asuitable touch-up stick, e.g. MB Touch-
Up Stick ,torepair slight damage to the paint-
work quickly and provisionally.
Matte finish care
!Never polish the vehicle or the light alloy
wheels. Polishingc auses the finish to shine.
!The followingmay cause the paint to
becom eshinya nd thus reducet he matte
effect:
Rstrong rubbingoft he paintwork with
unsuitable materials
Rfrequent use of automatic car washes
Rwashing the vehicle in directs unlight
!Never use paint cleaner, buffingorp olishing
products, or gloss preserver,e .g. wax. These
products are only suitable for high-gloss sur-
faces. Their use on vehicles with matt efinish
leads to considerable surfaced amage (shiny,
mottled areas).
Always have paintwork repairs carried out at a
qualified specialist workshop.
!Do not use wash programs with ahot wax
treatment under any circumstances.
Observe these notes if your vehicle has aclear
matt efinish. This will help you to avoid damage
to the paintwork due to incorrect treatment.
These notes also apply to light alloy wheels with ac lear matt efinish.
The vehicle should preferably be washed by
hand using asoft sponge, car shampooa nd
plent yofw ater.
Use only insect remover and car shampoof rom
the rang eofapproved Mercedes-Ben zcare
products.

MOExtended tires( tires with run-flat
properties)
General notes
With MOExtended tire s(tires with run fla tchar-
acteristics) ,you can continu etodrive your vehi-
cle eve nifthere is atotal loss of pressure in one
or more tires. The affected tire mus tnot show
any clearl yvisible damage.
You can recognize MOExtended tire sbythe
MOExtended marking which appears on the
sidewal lofthe tire .You will find this marking
next to the tire size designation, the load-bear-
ing capacity and the speed index (
Ypage 330).
MOExtended tire smay only be used in conjunc-
tion with an active tire pressure loss warning
system or with an active tire pressure monitor.
If ap ressure loss warnin gmessage appears
in the multifunctio ndisplay:
Robserve the instructions in the display mes-
sages (Ypage 241).
Rcheck the tire for damage.
Rif driving on, observe the following notes.
The driving distance possible in run-flat mod eis

cle is partiall ylad en. Whe nthe vehicl eisfully
laden it is approximately 19 miles (30 km). In addition to the vehicl
eload, the driving dis-
tance possible depends upon:
Rvehicl espeed

The driving distance possible in run-flat mode
may be reduce dbyextremedriving conditions
or maneuvers, or it can be increased through a
moderate style of driving.

Driving with summe rtires
At temperatures belo w45‡(+7 †),summer
tire slos ee last icity and therefore tractio nand
braking power. Chang ethe tire sonyourvehicle to M+S tire
s. Usingsumme rtires at very cold
temperatures could cause cracks to form,
thereby damaging the tires permanently.
Mercedes-Benz cannot accept responsibility for
this type of damage.
GWARNING
Damage dtires can cause tire inflation pres-
sure loss. As aresult, you could lose control of
you rvehicle. There is arisk of accident.
Check the tires regularly for signs of damage
and replace any damaged tires immediately.
M+S tires
GWARNING
M+S tires with atire tread depth of less than
ã in (4 mm) are not suitable for use in winter
and do not provid esufficient traction. There is
ar isk of an accident.
M+S tires with atread depth of less than ãin
(4 mm) must be replaced immediately.
At temperatures belo w45‡ (+7 †), use winter
tires or all-season tires. Bot htype soft ire are
identified by the M+S marking.
Only winter tires bearing the isnowflake
symbol in addition to the M+S marking provide
the best possibl egrip in wintry road conditions.
Only these tires wil lallow driving safety systems
such as ABS and ESP
®to function optimally in
winter. Theset ires have beend eveloped specif-
ically for driving in snow.
Use M+S tires of the same make and tread on all
wheels to maintain safe handling characteris-
tics.
Always observe the maximu mpermissible
speeds pecified for the M+S tires you have
mounted.
When you have mounted the M+S tires:
XCheck the tire pressures (Ypag e322).
XRestart the tire pressure monitor
(Ypag e325).
318Wintero peration
Wheels and tires

The safe speed onawet, snow covered or icy
road is alwaysl ower than on dry road surfaces.
You should pay special attention to road condi-
tions when temperatures are around freezing
point.
Mercedes-Benz recommends aminimum tread
depth of ãin (4 mm) on all four winter tires.
Observe the legally required minimum tire tread
depth (
Ypage 317). Winter tires can reduce the
braking distance on snow-covered surfaces in
comparison with summer tires. The braking dis-
tanc eiss till much further than on surfaces that
are not icy or covered with snow. Take appro-
priate care when driving.
Further information on winter tires (M+S tires)
(
Ypage 318).
Temperature
GWARNING
The temperature grade for this tire is estab-
lished for atire that is properly inflated and
not overloaded. Excessive speed, underinfla-
tion, or excessivel oading, either separately or
in combination, can cause excessiveh eat
build-up and possible tire failure.
The temperature grades are A(the highest), B,
and C, representing the tire's resistanc etothe
generation of heat and its ability to dissipate
heat when tested under controlled conditions
on aspecified indoor laboratory test wheel. Sus-
tained high temperature can cause the material
of the tire to degenerate and reduce tire life, and
excessivet emperature can lead to sudden tire
failure. The grade Ccorresponds to alevel of
performance which all passenger car tires must
meet under the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety
Standard No. 109. Grades BandArepresent
higher levels of performance on the laboratory
test wheel than the minimum required by law.
