WARNING Risk of accident when driving
in limp -home mode
Driving in emergency mode impairs the han‐
dling characteristics of theve hicle. #
Do not exceed the permissible maxi‐
mum speed of the MOEx tended tyres. #
Avoid any abrupt steering and driving
manoeuvres as well as driving over
obs tacles (kerbs, 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
R smoke which smells like rubber
R continuous ESP ®
inter vention

After driving in emergency mode, ha ve
th erims checkedby aqu alified special‐ ist
workshop with rega rd totheir fur ther
use. #
The defective tyre must be replaced in
eve rycase. Wi
th MOExtended tyres (run-flat tyres), you can
continue todrive your vehicle even if there is a
tot al loss of pressure in one or more tyres. How‐
eve r,th e tyre af fected must not show any clearly
visible damage.
Yo u can recognise MOExtended tyres bythe
MOExtended marking which appears on the side
wa ll of the tyre.
Ve hicles with tyre pressure monitoring sys‐
te m: MOExtended tyres may only be used in
conjunction wi than activated tyre pressure mon‐
itoring sy stem.
If a pressure loss warning message appears in
th e multifunction displa y,proceed as follo ws:
R Check the tyre for dama ge.
R If driving on, obser vethefo llowing no tes. Driving distance possible in emer

WARNING Risk of accident due toinsuf‐
fi cient or excessive tyre pressure
Underinflate d oroverinfla ted tyres pose the
fo llowing risks:
R The tyres may bur st, especially as the
load and vehicle speed increase. R
The tyres may wearexc essively and/or
une venly, which may greatlyimpair tyre
traction.
R The driving characteristics, as well as
st eering and braking, may be greatly
impaired. #
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.
