22Index
Always pay attention to the instructions and
safety notes in the "Changing a wheel" section
(
Ypage 319).
Only use wheel bolts that have been designed
for the wheel and the vehicle. For safety rea-
sons, Mercedes-Benz recommends that you
only use wheel bolts which have been approved for Mercedes-Benz vehicles and the respective
wheel.
!To prevent damage to the paintwork, hold
the wheel securely against the wheel hub
while screwing in the first wheel bolt.
XClean the wheel and wheel hub contact sur-
faces.
XPlace the new wheel on the wheel hub and
push it on.
XTighten the wheel bolts until they are finger-
tight.
Lowering the vehicle
GWARNING
The wheels could work loose if the wheel nuts and bolts are not tightened to the specified
tightening torque. There is a risk of accident.
Have the tightening torque immediately
checked at a qualified specialist workshop
after a wheel is changed.
XPlace the ratchet wrench onto the hexagon
nut of the jack so that the letters ABare visi-
ble.
XTurn the ratchet wrench until the vehicle is
once again standing firmly on the ground.
XPlace the jack to one side.
XTighten the wheel bolts evenly in a crosswise pattern in the sequence indicated ( :toA).
The specified tightening torque is 96 lb-ft
(130 Nm) .
XTurn the jack back to its initial position.
XStow the jack and the rest of the vehicle tools
in the vehicle again.
XMercedes-AMG vehicles and vehicles
with AMG Line: use the cover of the outer sill.
XCheck the tire pressure of the newly mounted
wheel and adjust it if necessary.
Observe the recommended tire pressure
(
Ypage 302).
Canada only: as long as you are driving with the
emergency spare wheel mounted, the tire pres-
sure loss warning system cannot function relia-
bly. Only restart the tire pressure loss warning
system when the defective wheel has been
replaced with a new wheel.
Vehicles with tire pressure monitor (USA
only): all mounted wheels must be equipped
with functioning sensors.
Wheel and tire combinations
General notes
You can ask for information regarding permitted
wheel/tire combinations at an authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center.
You should regularly check the pressure of the
emergency spare wheel, particularly prior to
long trips, and correct the pressure as neces-
sary (
Ypage 302). The value on the wheel is
valid.
!For safety reasons, Mercedes-Benz recom-
mends that you only use tires and wheels
which have been approved by Mercedes-Benz
specifically for your vehicle.
