Check wheels and tires for damage at least oncea month. Check wheels and tires after drivingoff-road or on rough roads. Damaged wheelscan cause a loss of tire pressure. Pay particularattention to damage such as:
RCuts in the tires
RPunctures in the tires
RTears in the tires
RBulges on tires
RDeformation or severe corrosion on wheels
Regularly check the tire tread depth and thecondition of the tread across the whole width ofthe tire (Ypage 291). If necessary, turn thefront wheels to full lock in order to inspect theinner side of the tire surface.
All wheels must have a valve cap to protect thevalve against dirt and moisture. Do not mountanything onto the valve other than the standardvalve cap or other valve caps approved byMercedes-Benz for your vehicle. Do not use anyother valve caps or systems, e.g. tire pressuremonitoring systems.
Regularly check the pressure of all the tires par-ticularly prior to long trips. Adjust the tire pres-sure as necessary (Ypage 293).
Observe the notes on the emergency sparewheel (Ypage 315).
The service life of tires depends, among otherthings, on the following factors:
RDriving style
RTire pressure
RDistance covered
Notes on tire tread
GWARNING
Insufficient tire tread will reduce tire traction.
The tire is no longer able to dissipate water.
This means that on wet road surfaces, the risk
of hydroplaning increases, in particular where
speed is not adapted to suit the driving con-
ditions. There is a risk of accident.
If the tire pressure is too high or too low, tires
may exhibit different levels of wear at differ-
ent locations on the tire tread. Thus, you
should regularly check the tread depth and
the condition of the tread across the entire
width of all tires.
Minimum tire tread depth for:
RSummer tires:

halt by braking carefully. Avoid abrupt steeringmovements.
The tire pressure monitor has a yellow warninglamp in the instrument cluster for indicatingpressure loss or a malfunction. Whether thewarning lamp flashes or lights up indicateswhether a tire pressure is too low or the tirepressure monitor is malfunctioning:
Rif the warning lamp is lit continuously, the tirepressure on one or more tires is significantlytoo low. The tire pressure monitor is not mal-functioning.
Rif the warning lamp flashes for around aminute and then remains lit constantly, thetire pressure monitor is malfunctioning.
In addition to the warning lamp, a messageappears in the multifunction display. Observethe information on display messages(Ypage 213).
It may take up to ten minutes for a malfunctionof the tire pressure monitor to be indicated. Amalfunction will be indicated by the tire pres-sure warning lamp flashing for approximatelyone minute and then remaining lit. When themalfunction has been rectified, the tire pressurewarning lamp goes out after a few minutes ofdriving.
The tire pressure values indicated by the on-board computer may differ from those meas-ured at a gas station with a pressure gauge. Thetire pressures shown by the on-board computerrefer to those measured at sea level. At highaltitudes, the tire pressure values indicated by apressure gauge are higher than those shown bythe on-board computer. In this case, do notreduce the tire pressures.
The operation of the tire pressure monitor canbe affected by interference from radio transmit-ting equipment (e.g. radio headphones, two-wayradios) that may be being operated in or near thevehicle.

cally

After a teach-in process, the tire pressure mon-itor automatically detects new wheels or newsensors. As long as a clear allocation of the tirepressure value to the individual wheels is notpossible, theTireTirePressurePressureMonitorMonitorActiveActivemessage is shown instead of the tire pressuredisplay. The tire pressures are already beingmonitored.
If an emergency spare wheel is mounted, thesystem may continue to show the tire pressureof the wheel that has been removed for a fewminutes. If this occurs, note that the value dis-played for the position where the spare wheel isfitted is not the same as the current tire pres-sure of the emergency spare wheel.

sages
If the tire pressure monitor detects a pressureloss in one or more tires, a warning message isshown in the multifunction display. The yellowtire pressure warning lamp then lights up.
RIf thePlease Correct Tire PressurePlease Correct Tire Pressuremessage appears in the multifunction display,the tire pressure in at least one tire is too low.The tire pressure must be corrected when theopportunity arises.
RIf theCheck Tire PressureCheck Tire Pressuremessageappears in the multifunction display, the tirepressure in one or more tires has droppedsignificantly. The tires must be checked.
RIf theTireTirePressurePressureWarningWarningTireTireFail‐Fail‐ureuremessage appears, the tire pressure in oneor more tires has dropped suddenly. The tiresmust be checked.
Observe the instructions and safety notes in thedisplay messages in the "Tires" section(Ypage 213).
If the wheel positions on the vehicle are rotated,the tire pressures may be displayed for thewrong positions for a short time. This is rectifiedafter a few minutes of driving, and the tire pres-sures are displayed for the correct positions.
