2019 MERCEDES-BENZ METRIS steering wheel

Vehicles with steering wheel buttons:if the
wheel positions on the vehicle are rotated, the
tire pressures may be displayed for the wrong
positions for a short time. This is rectified after a
few minutes of driving; the tire pressures are
then displayed for the correct positions.
Restarting the tire pressure monitor
General notes
When you restart the tire pressure monitor, all
existing warning messages are deleted and the
warning lamp goes out. The monitor uses the
currently set tire pressures as the reference val-
ues for monitoring. In most cases, the tire pres-
sure monitor will automatically detect the new
reference values after you have changed the tire
pressure. However, you can also set reference
values manually as described here. The tire
pressure monitor then monitors the new tire
pressure values.
Vehicles without steering wheel buttons
The vehicle must be stationary. Use the buttons
in the instrument cluster.
XTurn the key to position 2in the ignition
lock.
XUsing Èselect the Tire Pressuremenu.
XPress3to confirm.
The display shows the Monitoring Active
message.

message.
If you wish to confirm the restart:
XPress the fbutton.
The display shows the distance menu.
After you have driven for a few minutes, the
system checks whether the current tire pres-
sures are within the specified range. The new tire pressure levels are then accepted as ref-
erence values and monitored.
If you wish to cancel the restart:
XPress the gbutton.
The display shows the tire pressure menu.
The tire pressure values stored at the last
restart will continue to be monitored.

Tire pressure tables
Vehicles with a gross vehicle weight of 6,724 lbs (3.05 t)
!The pressure difference between tires on any one axle must be no greater than 10 kPa (0.1 ba r/
1.5 psi).
The following tire pressure values apply to vehicles with:
Ra gross vehicle weight of 6,724 lbs (3.05 t)
Ra gross axle weight rating of 3,418 lbs(1,550 kg)on the rear axle and
Rthe tires referred to under "Wheel and tire combinations" (Ypage 302)
Always observe the notes under "Information on tire pressures" (
Ypage 282).
The tire pressure for the spare wheelis 340 kPa (3.4 bar/49 psi).

Loading the vehicle
Instruction labels for tires and loads
GWARNING
Overloaded tires can overheat, causing a
blowout. Overloaded tires can also impair the steering and driving characteristics and lead
to brake failure. There is a risk of accident.
Observe the load rating of the tires. The load
rating must be at least half of the GAWR of
your vehicle. Never overload the tires by
exceeding the maximum load.
Example: Tire and Loading Information placard on
the B-pillar, driver's side
Two instruction labels on your vehicle show themaximum possible load.
(1) Tire and Loading Information placard :is
on the B-pillar on the driver's side. Tire and
Loading Information placard :shows the
permissible number of occupants and the
maximum permissible load of the vehicle. It also contains details of the tire sizes and
corresponding pressures for tires mounted
at the factory.
(2) The vehicle identification plate is on the B-pillar on the driver's side. The vehicle
identification plate informs you of the per-
missible gross weight. It is made up of the
vehicle weight, all vehicle occupants, the
fuel and the cargo. You can also find infor-
mation about the maximum Gross Axle
Weight Rating on the front and rear axle.
The maximum gross axle weight rating is
the maximum weight that can be carried by
one axle (front or rear axle). Do not exceed the permissible gross weight or the maxi-
mum gross axle weight rating for the front
or rear axle.

The following components of the different vehi-
cle versions influence fuel consumption:
Rtire sizes, tire tread, tire pressure, tire condi-
tion
Rtransmission ratios for the drive assemblies
Radditional equipment (e.g. air-conditioning
system, auxiliary heating system)
For these reasons, the actual consumption fig-
ures for your vehicle may deviate from the con-
sumption figures determined according to EU
Directive 80/1268/EE C.
Details on fuel consumption can be called up in
the on-board computer:

Engine oil
General notes
When handling engine oil, observe the important
safety notes on operating fluids (Ypage 306).
The quality of the engine oil used is of decisive
importance for the engine's functionality and
operating life. Mercedes-Benz continually
approves engine oils based on complex experi-
ments according to the current state of the art. Therefore, only Mercedes-Benz approved
engine oils may be used in Mercedes-Benz
engines. Mercedes-Benz recommends having
the oil changed at a qualified specialist work-
shop. Information about engine oils approved by
Mercedes-Benz can be obtained:
