iThe actual values for tires are vehicle-spe-cific and may deviate from the values in theillustration.
Treadwear
The treadwear grade is a comparative ratingbased on the wear rate of the tire when testedunder controlled conditions on a specified U.S.government course. For example, a tire graded150 would wear one and one-half times as wellon the government test track as a tire graded100.
The relative performance of tires dependsupon the actual conditions of their use, how-ever, and may depart significantly from thenorm due to variations in driving habits, ser-vice practices and differences in road charac-teristics and climate.
Traction
GWARNING
The traction grade assigned to this tire is
based on straight-ahead braking traction
tests, and does not include acceleration,
cornering, hydroplaning, or peak traction
characteristics.
!Avoid wheelspin. This can lead to damageto the drive train.
The traction grades – from highest to lowest –are AA, A, B and C. Those grades represent thetire's ability to stop on wet pavement as meas-ured under controlled conditions on specifiedgovernment test surfaces of asphalt and con-crete. A tire marked C may have poor tractionperformance.
The safe speed on a wet, snow covered or icyroad is always lower than on dry road surfa-ces.
You should pay special attention to road con-ditions when temperatures are around freezingpoint.

Climate control system refrigerant
Important safety notes
The climate control system of your vehicle isfilled with refrigerant R‑134a.
The instruction label regarding the refrigeranttype used can be found on the radiator crossmember.
!Only the refrigerant R‑134a and the PAGoil approved by Mercedes-Benz may beused. The approved PAG oil may not bemixed with any other PAG oil that is notapproved for R-134a refrigerant. Otherwise,the climate control system may be dam-aged.
Service work, such as refilling with refrigerantor replacing component parts, may only becarried out by a qualified specialist workshop.All applicable regulations, as well as SAEstandard J639, must be adhered to.
Always have work on the climate control sys-tem carried out at a qualified specialist work-shop.
