Vehicle care235Tyres age, even if they are not used.
We recommend tyre replacement
every 6 years.
Changing tyre and wheel size
If tyres of a different size than those
fitted at the factory are used, it may be necessary to reprogramme the tyre
deflation detection system and make
other vehicle modifications.
Tyre deflation detection system
3 233.
Have the label with tyre pressures
replaced.9 Warning
The use of unsuitable tyres or
wheels may lead to accidents and will invalidate the vehicle
operating permit.
Wheel covers
Wheel covers and tyres that are
factory approved for the respective
vehicle and comply with all of the
relevant wheel and tyre combination
requirements must be used.
If the wheel covers and tyres used are
not factory approved, the tyres must
not have a rim protection ridge.
Wheel covers must not impair brake
cooling.9 Warning
Use of unsuitable tyres or wheel
covers could lead to sudden
pressure loss and thereby
accidents.
Vehicles with steel wheels: When
using locking wheel nuts, do not
attach wheel covers.
Tyre chains
Tyre chains are only permitted on the
front wheels.
Always use fine mesh chains that add no more than 9 mm to the tyre tread
and the inboard sides (including chain
lock).
9 Warning
Damage may lead to tyre blowout.
Tyre chains are permitted on tyres of
size 215/70R16, 215/65 R17,
225/55 R18 and 205/55 R19.

242Vehicle careVehicle tools 3 230.
Steel wheels with cover: Pull off
the wheel cover.
Alloy wheels: Disengage wheel
bolt caps with the wheel bolt cover
remover.
2. Attach the wheel wrench and loosen each wheel bolt by half a
turn.
The wheels might be protected by
locking wheel nuts. To loosen
these specific nuts first attach the
adapter onto the head of the nut
before installing the wheel
wrench. The adapter is located in
the tool box 3 230.
3. Ensure the jack is correctly
positioned under the relevant
vehicle jacking point.
4. Set the jack to the necessary height. Position it directly below
the jacking point in a manner that
prevents it from slipping.
Ensure that the edge of the body
fits into the notch of the jack.

Vehicle care243With the jack correctly aligned
rotate wheel wrench until wheel is
clear of the ground.
5. Unscrew the wheel nuts.
6. Change the wheel.
7. Screw on the wheel nuts.
8. Lower the vehicle and remove jack.
9. Install the wheel wrench ensuring that it is located securely and
tighten each bolt in a crosswise
sequence. Tightening torque is
115 Nm.
If the vehicle is equipped with
alloy wheels, note that the wheel
bolts can also be used for the steel spare wheel. In this case, the
spare wheel is secured by the
conical contact of each bolt.
10. Align the valve hole in the wheel cover with the tyre valve before
installing.
Install wheel nut caps.11. Stow the replaced wheel, the vehicle tools 3 230 and the
adapter for the locking wheel nuts.
12. Check the tyre pressure of the installed tyre and the wheel nut
torque as soon as possible.
Stowing a damaged full size
wheel in the load compartment
All permitted wheel sizes can be
stowed in the spare wheel well. To
secure the wheel:1. Remove centre cap with the brand
emblem by pushing from the
inside.
2. Position the wheel outside down in the wheel well.
3. Secure the defective wheel with the wing nut.
4. Depending on the tyre size, the floor cover can be placed on the
projecting wheel.

246Vehicle care
Screw in the towing eye as far as it will
go until it stops in a horizontal
position.
Attach a tow rope – or better still a tow
rod – to the towing eye.
The towing eye must only be used for towing and not for recovering the
vehicle.
Switch on ignition to release steering
wheel lock and to permit operation of
brake lights, horn and windscreen
wiper.
Caution
Deactivate the driver assistance
systems like active emergency
braking 3 173, otherwise the
vehicle may automatically brake during towing.
Switch the selector lever to neutral.
Release the parking brake.
Caution
Drive slowly. Do not drive jerkily.
Excessive tractive force can
damage the vehicle.
When the engine is not running,
considerably more force is needed to
brake and steer.
To prevent the entry of exhaust gases from the towing vehicle, switch on the
air recirculation and close the
windows.
Vehicles with automatic transmission: The vehicle must be towed facing
forwards, not faster than 80 km/h nor further than 100 km. In all other cases
and when the transmission is
defective, the front axle must be
raised off the ground.
Seek the assistance of a workshop.
After towing, unscrew the towing eye.
Insert cap with the flange into the
recess and fix cap by pushing.
Towing a hybrid vehicle9 Warning
Always tow the vehicle on a
platform. Avoid towing the vehicle
with two or four wheels on the
ground.
If necessary, the vehicle can be
moved a few metres at a speed
below 10 km/h.
Before moving the car: Switch on ignition, depress the brake pedal, shift to N and switch off ignition.
Ensure the vehicle is only towed
by well trained technicians.

Vehicle care247Towing another vehicle
Remove the cap.
The towing eye is stowed with the
vehicle tools 3 230.
Screw in the towing eye as far as it will
go until it stops in a horizontal
position.
The lashing eye at the rear
underneath the vehicle must never be used as a towing eye.
Attach a tow rope – or better still a tow
rod – to the towing eye.
The towing eye must only be used for towing and not for recovering a
vehicle.Caution
Drive slowly. Do not drive jerkily.
Excessive tractive force can
damage the vehicle.
After towing, unscrew the towing eye.
Insert cap with the upper flange into
the recess and fix cap by pushing.
Appearance care
Exterior care LocksThe locks are lubricated at the factoryusing a high quality lock cylinder
grease. Use a de-icing agent only
when absolutely necessary, as this
has a degreasing effect and impairs
lock function. After using a de-icing
agent, have the locks regreased by a
workshop.
WashingThe paintwork of your vehicle is
exposed to environmental influences.
Wash and wax your vehicle regularly.
When using automatic vehicle
washes, select a programme that
includes waxing.
Bird droppings, dead insects, resin,
pollen and the like should be cleaned
off immediately, as they contain
aggressive constituents which can
cause paint damage.
