and one-half times aswell onthe governmenttesttrack as a tire graded100.
Therelative performance of tires depends uponthe actual conditions oftheir use, however,andmay depart significantly fromthe norm duetovariations in driving habits, service practices anddifferences inroadcharacteristics and climateconditions.
Tractiongrade
\nDANGERRisk of accident duetoinade‐quate traction
The tractiongrade assignedtothis tire isbased onstraight-ahead braking tractiontests, and does not include either accelera‐tion, cornering,hydroplaning or peak tractioncharacteristics.
Always adaptyour drivingstyle anddrive at a speedtosuitthe prevailingtraffic andweather conditions.
NOTEDamagetothe drivetrain fromwheelspin
Avoid wheelspin.
The traction grades – from highesttolowest –are AA,A,B and C. Those gradesrepresentthetire's abilitytostop onwet pavement as meas‐ured under controlled conditions on specifiedgovernmenttestsurfaces made of asphalt andconcrete.
Temperaturegrade
\nWARNINGRisk of accident from tireoverheating and tirefailure
Thetemperature gradeforthis tire is estab‐lishedfor a tirethat is properly inflated andnotoverloaded. Excessive speed, underinfla‐tion, orexcessive loading, either separatelyor in combination, can causeexcessive heatbuild-up and possible tirefailure.
Observetherecommended tire pres‐sures andregularlycheckthe tire pres‐
sure of all tires includingthe sparewheel.
Adjustthe tire pressure as necessary.
Thetemperature grades are A (the highest), Band C. Theyrepresentthe tire'sresistancetothegeneration of heat and its abilitytodissipateheat whentested under controlled conditions ona specified indoor laboratorytestwheel. Sus‐tained hightemperature can causethe materialofthe tiretodegenerate andreduce tire life, andexcessivetemperature can leadtosudden tirefailure. Grade C correspondstoa level of per‐formance which all passenger car tires mustmeet undertherequirements ofthe US Depart‐ment ofTransportation.

\nWARNING‑ Risk offireand injury fromantifreeze
If antifreeze comes into contact withhotcomponent parts inthe engine compart‐ment, it may ignite.
Allowthe enginetocool down beforeadding antifreeze.
Makesurethat no antifreeze spills outnexttothefiller opening.
Thoroughly clean off any antifreezefrom component parts beforestartingthevehicle.
NOTEDamagecausedbyincorrect cool‐ant
Only add coolantthat has been pre‐mixed withtherequired antifreeze pro‐tection.

NOTEOverheating at high outsidetem‐peratures
If an inappropriate coolant is used,theengine cooling system is not sufficiently pro‐tected againstoverheating and corrosion athigh outsidetemperatures.
Always use coolant approvedbyMercedes-Benz.
Observethe instructions intheMercedes-Benz Specificationsfor Oper‐ating Fluids310.1.
Havethe coolantregularlyreplaced at aqualifiedspecialistworkshop.
The proportion of corrosion inhibitor/antifreezeconcentrate inthe engine cooling system shouldbe:
Ra minimum of 50% (antifreeze protectiondowntoapproximately -35 °F (-37 °C))
Ra maximum of 55% (antifreeze protectiondownto-49 °F (-45 °C))
