WARNING Risk of accident due toaflat
tyre
A flat tyre se verely affects the driving charac‐
te rist ics as well as thesteering and braking
of theve hicle.
Ty res without run-flat characteristics: #
Do not drive on with a flat tyre. #
Chan getheflat tyre immediately with
an emer gency spa rewheel or spare
wheel. Alternativel y,consult a qualified
specialist workshop.
Ty res with run-flat characteristics: #
Obse rveth e information and warning
no tes on MOExtended tyres (run-flat
tyres). In
theeve nt of a flat tyre, thefo llowing options
are available depending on your vehicle's equip‐
ment:
R Vehicles with MOExtended tyres: it is pos‐
sible tocontinue the journey for a short
period of time. Make sure you obse rvethe
no tes on MOExtended tyres (run-flat tyres)
(/ page 503).
R Vehicles with a TIREFIT kit: you can repair
th e tyre so that it is possible tocontinue the
jou rney for a short period of time. Todo this,
use the TIREFIT kit (/ page 505).
R Vehicles with Mercedes me connect: you
can make a call for breakdown assi stance via
th eov erhead control panel in the case of a
breakdown (/ page447).
R Allvehicles: change the wheel
(/ page 539). %
The emer gency spa rewheel is only available
in cer tain countries. Note

WARNING Risk of accident when driving
in eme rgency mode
When driving in emer gency mode, the han‐
dling characteristics are impaired. e.g. when
cornering, when accelerating stronglyand
when braking. #
Do not exceed the permissible maxi‐
mum speed. #
Avoid any abrupt steering and driving
maneuvers as well as driving over
obs tacles (curbs, pot holes, off-road).
This applies, in pa rticular, toa loaded
ve hicle. #
Stop driving in the emer gency mode if
yo u notice:
R banging noise
R vehicle vibration Breakdown assis
tance 503

#
Comply with there commended tyre
pressure and check the tyre pressure of
all tyres including the spare wheel regu‐
larly:
R at least once a month
R when the load changes
R before embarking on a lon ger journey
R if operating conditions change, e.g. off-
ro ad driving #
Adjust the tyre pressure as necessar y.Ty
re pressure which is too high or too low can:
R Shor tenth e service life of the tyres.
R Cause increased tyre damage.
R Adversely af fect driving characteristics and
th us driving saf ety, e.g. due toaquaplaning. &
WARNING Risk of accident from repea‐
te d tyre pressure drop
If th e tyre pressure drops repeatedly, the
wheel, valve or tyre may be damaged. Insuf
ficient tyre pressure can cause the tyres
to bur st. #
Inspect the tyre for signs of fore ign
objects. #
Check whe ther the wheel or valve has a
leak. #
Ifyo u are unable torectify the damage,
conta ct aqualified specialist workshop. Information on
there commended tyre pressure
fo rth eve hicle's factor y-fitted tyres can be found
on the tyre pressure table on the inside of the
fuel filler flap (/ page 526).
Use a suitable pressure gauge tocheck the tyre
pressure. The outer appearance of a tyre does
not permit any reliable conclusion about the tyre
pressure.
Ve hicles with a tyre pressure monitoring sys‐
te m: you can also check the tyre pressure using
th e on-board computer. Only cor
rect tyre pressures when the tyres are
cold. Conditions for cold tyres:
R The vehicle has been par ked with the tyres
out of direct sunlight for at least thre e hours.
R The vehicle has tr avelled less than 1.6 km.
A rise in the tyre temp erature of 10°C increases
th e tyre pressure byappr ox.10 kPa (0.1 bar/
1. 5 psi). Take this into account when checking
th e tyre pressure of warm tyres.

Alw ays inflate there ar axle tyres tothere com‐
mended tyre pressures on the tyre pressure
