is a se vere tyre pressu reloss.
Af ter a change in tyre pressure, a wheel rotation
or a tyre change, or if you ha verefitted wheels
or tyres, the tyre pressure loss warning sy stem

Sy stem limitations
The sy stem may be impaired or may not function
particularly in thefo llowing situations:
R incor rectly set tyre pressure
R sudden pressure loss caused, forex ample,
by afo re ign object penetrating the tyre
R steady pressure loss in se veral tyres The sy
stem has a restricted or del ayed function
particularly in thefo llowing situations:
R poor ground conditions, e.g. snow or gr avel

R MOE = Mercedes-Benz Original Extended
(run-flat tyres only for cer tain wheels)
R MO1 = Mercedes-Benz Original (only cer‐
ta in AMG tyres)
Cer tain characteristics, such as handling,
ve hicle noise emissions, fuel consum ption,
et c. may otherwise be adversely af fected.
Fu rthermore, other tyre sizes could result in
th e tyres rubbing against the body and axle
components when loaded. This could result
in damage tothe tyre or theve hicle.
Only use tyres, wheels and accessories that

WARNING Risk of accident wi thhigh
per form ance tyres
The special tyre tread in combination with
th e optimised tyre compound, means that
th erisk of skidding or hydroplaning on wet
ro ads is inc reased.
In addition, the tyre grip is greatly reduced at
a low outside temp erature and tyre running
te mp erature. 0007
Switch on the ESP ®
and adapt your
driving style accordingly. 0007
Use M+S tyres at outside temp eratures
of less than 50 °F. Obse
rveth efo llowing when selecting, fitting and
re placing tyres:
R Countr y-specific requirements for tyre
appro valth at define a specific tyre type for
yo ur vehicle.
Fu rthermore, the use of cer tain tyre types in
cer tain regions and areas of operation can
be highly beneficial.
R Only use tyres and wheels of the same type
(summer tyres, winter tyres, MOEx tended
tyres) and the same make.
R Only fit wheels of the same size on one axle
(left and right).
It is only permissible tofit a di fferent wheel
size in theeve nt of a flat tyre in order to
drive tothe specialist workshop.
R Only fit tyres of the cor rect size onto the
wheels.
R Do not make any modifications tothe brake
sy stem, the wheels or the tyres.
The use of shims or brake dust shields is not
permitted and may in validate theve hicle's
