The speed rating of tires mounted at the factorymay be higher than the maximum permissiblespeed permitted by the electronic speed limiter.
Make sure that your tires have the requiredspeed rating, e.g. when buying new tires. Youcan find information on this under "Tires"(Ypage 354).
Further information about reading tire data canbe obtained from any qualified specialist work-shop.
Load index
In addition to the load-bearing index, loadindex Cmay also be imprinted on the sidewallof the tire. You will find this after the letter thatidentifies the speed rating (Ypage 345).
RIf no specification is given: no text (as in theexample above), represents a standard load(SL) tire
RXL or Extra Load: represents a reinforced tire
RLight Load: represents a light load tire
RC, D, E: represents a load range that dependson the maximum load that the tire can carry ata certain pressure
iTire data is vehicle-specific and may deviatefrom the data in the example.
Maximum load rating
Maximum tire load Cis the maximum permis-sible weight for which the tire is approved.
Do not overload the tires by exceeding thespecified load limit. The maximum permissibleload can be found on the vehicle's Tire andLoading Information placard on the B-pillar onthe driver's side (Ypage 340).
iThe actual values for tires are vehicle-spe-cific and may deviate from the values in theillustration.
DOT, Tire Identification Number (TIN)
US tire regulations stipulate that every tire man-ufacturer or retreader must imprint a TIN in or onthe sidewall of each tire produced.
The TIN is a unique identification number. TheTIN enables the tire manufacturers or retreadersto inform purchasers of recalls and other safety-relevant matters. It makes it possible for thepurchaser to easily identify the affected tires.
The TIN is made up of manufacturer identifica-tion code D, tire size
the tires are installed corresponding to thedirection of rotation.
An arrow on the sidewall of the tire indicates itscorrect direction of rotation.
Storing wheels
Store wheels that are not being used in a cool,dry and preferably dark place. Protect the tiresfrom oil, grease, gasoline and diesel.
Mounting a wheel
Preparing the vehicle
XStop the vehicle on solid, non-slippery andlevel ground.
XApply the electric parking brake manually.
XBring the front wheels into the straight-aheadposition.
XShift the transmission to position ].
XMake sure that the vehicle level is set to "Nor-mal" on vehicles with AIR BODY CONTROL(Ypage 173).
XSwitch off the engine.
XVehicles without KEYLESS-GO:remove theSmartKey from the ignition lock.
XVehicles with KEYLESS-GO start functionor KEYLESS-GO:open the driver's door.The vehicle electronics are now in position
!To ensure the longevity and full perform-ance of the engine, only premium-gradeunleaded gasoline may be used.
If premium-grade unleaded gasoline isunavailable and you have to refuel with regu-lar unleaded gasoline, observe the followingprecautions:
ROnly fill the fuel tank to half full with regularunleaded gasoline and add the rest as soonas possible with premium-grade unleadedgasoline.
RDo not drive at the maximum design speed.
RAvoid sudden acceleration and enginespeeds over 3000 rpm.
You will usually find information about the fuelgrade on the fuel pump. If you cannot find thelabel on the fuel pump, ask the gas station staff.
iFor further information, consult a qualifiedspecialist workshop or visithttp://www.mbusa.com (USA only).
As a temporary measure, if the recommendedfuel is not available, you may also use regularunleaded gasoline with an octane rating of87 AKI/91 RON. This may reduce engine per-formance and increase fuel consumption. Avoiddriving at full throttle and sudden acceleration.Never refuel using gasoline with a lower AKI.
Information on refueling (Ypage 151).
Additives
!Operating the engine with fuel additivesadded later can lead to engine failure. Do notmix fuel additives with fuel. This does notinclude additives for the removal and preven-tion of residue buildup. gasoline must only bemixed with additives recommended byMercedes-Benz. Comply with the instructionsfor use on the product label. More informationabout recommended additives can beobtained from any authorized Mercedes-BenzCenter.
Mercedes-Benz recommends that you use bran-ded fuels that have additives.
The fuel quality available in some countries maynot be sufficient. Residue could build up in thefuel injection system as a result. In such cases,and in consultation with an authorizedMercedes-Benz Center, the fuel may be mixedwith the cleaning additive recommended byMercedes-Benz. You must observe the notesand mixing ratios specified on the container.
Engine oil
General notes
!Do not use engine oil or an oil filter withspecifications deviating from those expresslyrequired for the prescribed service intervals.Do not change the engine oil or oil filter inorder to set replacement intervals longer thanthose prescribed. This could otherwise causedamage to the engine or exhaust gas after-treatment.
Follow the instructions on the service intervaldisplay for changing the engine oil. This couldotherwise cause damage to the engine orexhaust gas aftertreatment.
When handling engine oil, observe the importantsafety notes on service products (Ypage 358).
The engine oils are matched to the performanceof Mercedes-Benz engines and service intervals.You should therefore only use engine oils and oilfilters that are approved for vehicles with main-tenance systems.
Information on approved engine oils and oil fil-ters can be obtained at the following places:
Rfrom an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center
Rin the Mercedes-Benz Specifications for Ser-vice Products by entering the designation

Technical data
Comply with the important safety notes for ser-vice products when handling coolant(Ypage 358).
The coolant is a mixture of water and anti-freeze/corrosion inhibitor. It performs the fol-lowing tasks:
Ranti-corrosion protection
Rantifreeze protection
Rraising the boiling point
If the coolant has antifreeze protection down to-35 ‡ (-37 †), the boiling point of the coolantduring operation is approximately 266 ‡(130 †).
The antifreeze concentrate/corrosion inhibitorconcentration in the engine cooling systemshould:
Rbe at least 50%. This will protect the enginecooling system against freezing down toapproximately -35 ‡ (-37 †).
Rnot exceed 55% (antifreeze protection downto -49‡[-45 †]). Otherwise, heat will not bedissipated as effectively
Mercedes-Benz recommends an antifreeze/corrosion inhibitor concentrate in accordancewith MB Specifications for Service Products310.1.
iWhen the vehicle is first delivered, it is filledwith a coolant mixture that ensures adequateantifreeze and anti-corrosion protection.
iThe coolant is checked with every mainte-nance interval at a qualified specialist work-shop.

Windshield washer system
Important safety notes
GWARNING
Windshield washer concentrate is highly flam-
mable. If windshield washer concentrate gets
onto hot components of the engine or the
exhaust system, it can ignite. There is a risk of
fire and injury.
Make sure that windshield washer concen-
trate is not spilled in the vicinity of the filler
neck.
!Only use washer fluid which is suitable forlamp lenses, e.g. MB SummerFit or MB Win-terFit. Unsuitable washer fluid may damagethe lamp lenses of the headlamps.
!Only MB SummerFit and MB WinterFitwasher fluid should be mixed together. Thespray nozzles may otherwise becomeblocked.
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 358).
At temperatures above freezing:
XFill the washer fluid reservoir with a mixture ofwater and windshield washer fluid, e.g. MBSummerFit.
Add 1 part MB SummerFit to 100 parts water.
At temperatures below freezing:
XFill the washer fluid reservoir with a mixture ofwater 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 allyear round.
