General notes
You can as kfor information regarding permitted
emergency spare wheel satanauthorized
Mercedes-Benz Center.
You shoul dregularl ycheck the pressure of the
emergency spare wheel ,particularly prior to
long trips, and correct the pressure as neces-
sary (
Ypage 258). The value on the wheel is
valid.
An emergency spare wheel may also be moun-
ted against the direction of rotation. Observe
the time restriction on us easwellast he speed
limitation specified on the emergency spare
wheel.
Replace the tire saftersix years at the latest,
regardless of wear. Thi salsoa pplies to the
emergency spare wheel.
Whe nyou are driving with the collapsibl espare
wheel mounted, the tire pressure loss warning
system or the tire pressure monitor canno tfunc-
tion reliably. Only restart the tire pressure loss
warning system or tire pressure monitor when
the defectiv ewheel hasb eenr eplaced with a
new wheel.
Vehicles with tire pressure monitor: after
mounting an emergency spare wheel ,the sys-
tem may stil ldisplay the tire pressure of the
removed wheel for afew minutes. The value dis-
played for the mounted emergency spare wheel
is not the same as the current tire pressure of
the emergency spare wheel.
Removin gthe emergencys pare wheel
Collapsibles pare wheel unde rthe trunk
floor
The collapsibl espare wheel can be found in the
stowag ewellu nder the trunk floor (Ypage 218).
XTurn retaining screw ;counter-clockwise
and remove it.

XUnscrewt he valve cap from the valve.
XIf possible ,unscrew the valve insert from the
valve and release the air.
Fully deflating the tire scan take afew
minutes.
XScrew the valve insert back into the valve.
XScrew the valve cap back on.
XPull the protectiv esheet provided with the
spare wheel ove rthe collapsibl espare wheel.
XStow the collapsibl espare wheel in the emer-
gency spare wheel well under the trunk.
XUse the retaining screwtop ierce the protec-
tive sheet and fasten the collapsibl espare

freeze/corrosion inhibitor. It is responsible for
the following:

RAntifreeze protection
RRaising the boiling point
If the coolant has antifreeze protection dow nto
