The tightening torque must be96 lb-ft
(130 Nm).
XDismantle the pump lever.
XPush the jack piston back in and close the
drain plug.
XUse the nuts to secure the faulty wheel to the
spare wheel bracket (Ypage 245).
XStow the jack and the vehicle tools in the
vehicle again.
XCheck the tire pressure of the newly installed
wheel and adjust it if necessary.
Observe the recommended tire pressure
(
Ypage 260).
If you are driving with the emergency spare
wheel installed, the tire pressure monitor can-
not function reliably. Only restart the tire pres-
sure monitor when the defective wheel has been replaced with a new wheel.
All mounted wheels must be equipped with func-
tioning sensors for the tire pressure monitor.
Wheel and tire combinations
You can ask for information regarding permittedwheel/tire combinations at an authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center.
!For safety reasons, Mercedes-Benz recom-
mends that you only use tires, wheels and
accessories which have been specifically
approved by Mercedes-Benz for your vehicle.
These are specially adapted to the various
driving safety systems, such as ABS or ESP
®.
Only use tires, wheels and accessories tested
and recommended by Mercedes-Benz. Cer-
tain characteristics, such as handling, vehicle
noise emissions, fuel consumption, etc. may
otherwise be adversely affected. In addition,
other wheel sizes may cause the tires to rub
against the vehicle body and axle compo-
nents, when under load. This may result in
damage to the tire or to the vehicle.
Mercedes-Benz is not responsible for any
damage caused by using tires, wheels or
accessories different from those recommen-
ded.
Information on tires, wheels and permissible
combinations can be obtained at a qualified
specialist workshop.
!Retreaded tires are neither tested nor rec-
ommended by Mercedes-Benz, since previ- ous damage cannot always be detected on
retreaded tires. As a result, Mercedes-Benz
cannot guarantee vehicle safety if retreaded
tires are mounted. Do not mount used tires if
you have no information about their previous
usage.
The recommended pressures for various oper-
ating conditions can be found:
Ron the Tire and Loading Information placard
on the B-pillar on the driver's side
Rin the tire pressure table in the fuel filler flap
Observe the notes on recommended tire pres-
sures under various operating conditions
(
Ypage 260).
Check tire pressures regularly, and only when
the tires are cold. Comply with the maintenance
recommendations of the tire manufacturer in
the vehicle document wallet.
Notes on equipping the vehicle:
Ralways install tires of the same size on one
axle (left/right)
Ralways install the same type of tires on your
vehicle (summer tires, winter tires, all-
weather tires, all-terrain tires)
Spare wheel
If the tire and wheel dimensions of the spare
wheel differ from the wheel to be replaced, the
spare wheel is an emergency spare wheel.
GWARNING
Wheel and tire dimensions as well as the type of tire can vary between the spare wheel and
the wheel to be replaced. When the spare
wheel is mounted, driving characteristics may be severely affected. There is a risk of an acci-
dent.
In order to reduce risks:
Ryou should therefore adapt your driving
style and drive carefully.
Rnever mount more than one spare wheel
that differs from the wheel to be replaced.
Ronly use a spare wheel that differs from the
wheel to be replaced for a short time.

The antifreeze/corrosion inhibitor concentra-
tion in the engine cooling system should:
Rbe at least 50%. This will protect the engine
cooling system against freezing down to
approximately -35 ‡ (-37 †).
Rnot exceed 55% (antifreeze protection down
to -49 ‡ [-45 †]). Otherwise, heat will not be
dissipated as effectively.
Mercedes-Benz recommends an antifreeze/
corrosion inhibitor in accordance with MB Spec-
ifications for Service Products 310.1.
iWhen the vehicle is first delivered, it is filled
with a coolant mixture that ensures adequate
antifreeze and anti-corrosion protection.
iThe coolant is checked at specified intervals
at a qualified specialist workshop.
The engine cooling system is filled with coolant
at the factory which contains antifreeze/corro-
sion inhibitor that ensures protection down to
approximately -35 ‡ (-37 †).

Important safety notes
GWARNING
Windshield washer concentrate could ignite if it comes into contact with hot engine compo-
nents or the exhaust system. There is a risk of
fire and injury.
Make sure that no windshield washer con-
centrate is spilled next to the filler neck.
!Do not add distilled or de-ionized water to
the washer fluid container. Otherwise, the
level sensor may be damaged.
!Only MB SummerFit and MB WinterFit
washer fluid should be mixed together. The
spray nozzles may otherwise become
blocked.
Do not use distilled or de-ionized water. Other-
wise, the level sensor may give a false reading.
When handling washer fluid, observe the impor-
tant safety notes on service products
(
Ypage 283).
At temperatures above freezing:
XFill the washer fluid reservoir with a mixture of
water and windshield washer fluid, e.g. MB
SummerFit.
Add 1 part MB SummerFit to 100 parts water.
At temperatures below freezing:
XFill the washer fluid reservoir with a mixture of
water and washer fluid, e.g. MB WinterFit.
For the correct mixing ratio refer to the infor-
mation on the antifreeze reservoir.
iAdd windshield washer fluid, e.g. MB Sum-
merFit or MB WinterFit, to the washer fluid all
year round.
Climate control system refrigerant
Important safety notes
The climate control system of your vehicle is fil-
led with refrigerant R‑ 134a.
The instruction label regarding the refrigerant
type used can be found on the radiator cross
member.
!Only the refrigerant R‑134a and the PAG oil
approved by Mercedes-Benz may be used.
The approved PAG oil may not be mixed with
any other PAG oil that is not approved for
R-134a refrigerant. Otherwise, the climate
control system may be damaged.
Service work, such as refilling with refrigerant or
replacing component parts, may only be carried
out by a qualified specialist workshop. All appli-
cable regulations must be adhered to, SAE
standard J639 included.
Always have work on the climate control system carried out at a qualified specialist workshop.
