WARNING Risk of accident from dam‐
aged spa rewheel with Super Sin gle tires
Ve hicles with Super Single tires
The tire of the spare wheel exposed toabo ve-
ave rage loads af ter being ins talled on there ar
axle. If youexc eed the maximum speed or the
maximum dis tance, or ins tallth e spare wheel
again, the tire of the spare wheel may be
damaged. The tire damage may not be visible
and not de tectable.
A damaged tire may cause a loss of tire pres‐
sure. This could cause youto lose control of
th eve hicle. #
Only use the spare wheel if it has not
ye t been ins talled on there ar axle with
th e cur rent tires. #
Ifth e spare wheel had been ins talled on
th ere ar axle, ha vethe tire of the spare
wheel replaced af terch anging the
wheel again, ir respective of the dis‐
ta nce. #
For saf etyre asons, when changing a tire
ensure that only the tire valve type
appr ovedfo rth e tires is used. *

TEDama getothe transmission Ve
hicles with Super Single tires: whenyou
ins tallth e spare wheel on there ar axle, the
transmission may be dama gedby the dif fer‐
ent rotational speeds of the wheels. #
When the spare wheel is ins talled on the
re ar axle, obse rveth e maximum speed
of 34 mph (55 km/h) and the maximum
driving dis tance of 62 miles (100 km). %
The spa
rewheel can be used without restric‐
tions on the front axle of a vehicle with Super
Single tires.
Re gular lych eck that the spare wheel is secured
and has the specified tire pressure
(/ page 234). Re
gularly check thefo llowing, particularly prior to
long trips:
R the tire pressure of the spare wheel (if neces‐
sar y,adjust the tire pressure).
R thefast enings of the spare wheel brac ket.
Re place the tires af ter six years at the latest,
re ga rdless of wear. This also applies tothe spare
wheel.

Immedia tely rinse su rfaces that come in
con tact wi thDEF when filling with water
or remo veDEF wi tha damp clo thand
cold water.
If DEF has already cr ystallized, clean using a
spon geand cold water. If
yo u open the DEF tank, small amounts of
ammonia vapor may be released. Do not inhale
any ammonia vapor that may be released. Fill the
DEF tank only in well-ventilated areas.
DEF consum ption and filling capacity
DEF consum ption
Like fuel consum ption, DEF consum ption is highly
dependent upon driving style and operating con‐
ditions. DEF consum ption is usually within a
ra nge of 0 and 10% of the fuel consum ption. If
necessar y,DEF mu stbe refilled in acco rdance
with the instructions when there fill message is
displa yed in the instrument clus ter.This may also
be necessary between the scheduled mainte‐
nance.
To tal capacity of DEF tank Ve
hicl eT otal capacity
All model s5 .8gal (22 liters ) Exhau
stgas af tertre atment
The exhaust gas af tertre atment sy stem must be
operated in conjunction with DEF if it is tofunc‐
tion cor rectl y.
If yo u operate theve hicle without DEF or with
emissions-rele vant malfunctions, the legal MOT
appr oval is in validated. You will then probably no
longer be permitted tooperate theve hicle on
public roads.
It may be improper or punishable in some coun‐
tries tooperate a vehicle that uses no DEF or one
th at does not comply with the specifications of
th ese operating instructions.
Engine management monitors theex haust gas
af te rtre atment components for compliance with
emissions la wsand regulations. If you attem ptto
operate theve hicle without DEF, with diluted DEF
or with a dif fere nt reducing agent, this will be
de tected bythe engine management sy stem.
Other emissions- releva nt malfunctions, e.g.
me tering malfunctions or sensor er rors, are also
de tected and log ged. The engine management sy
stem subsequently
pr eve nts the engine being restar ted af ter issuing
a wa rning message.
Therefore add DEF tank regular lyduring vehicle
operation or, at the latest, af terre ceiving thefirst
wa rning message via the instrument clus ter. Engine oil
