mation on wheel and tyre combinations
Gene ral no tes
Information on tyres, wheels and permissible
combinations can be obtained at a qualified spe‐
cialist workshop.
The smaller the cross-section of a tyre of a spe‐
cific wheel size, thewo rseth e driving comfort on
poor road sur faces. Ride and damp ing comfort
are reduced and therisk increases that when you
drive over obs tacles, damage towheels and tyres
may result. Wheels and tyres

is assigned tothe cor rect wheel size catego ry
( / page 258). If the assignment changes with‐
out recoding the cont rol units in theve hicle, the
speedome ter will not display the speed accu‐
ra tely. Driving saf ety sy stems and driving sy stems
may then be operationally impaired or may de tect
a malfunction and switch themselves off.
Yo u will find a table with there commended tyre
pressures forva rious vehicle loads on the inside
of theve hicle's fuel filler flap or under "Tyre pres‐
sure tables" (/ page 251).
Check tyre pressures regularly and only when the
tyres are cold.

WARNING Risk of accident due toincor‐
re ct wheel and tyre dimensions
Driving with th e spare wheel fitted can
se verely impair theve hicle's driving charac‐
te rist ics.
To avo idrisks, obser vethefo llowing points: #
Drive carefully #
Neverfit more than one spare wheel
which is dif fere nt from the wheel tobe
re placed. #
Only use the spare wheel for a short
period of time. #
Change a spare wheel which is of a dif‐
fere nt size at the nearest qualified spe‐
cialist workshop. Be sure topay atten‐
tion tothe cor rect wheel and tyre
dimensions as well as the tyre type. R
When using a spare wheel (which is dif fere nt
from the wheel tobe replaced) a top speed of
80 km/h must not be exceeded.
R The tyre pressure of the spare wheel must be
ch ecked before starting a journey
(/ page 251).
R Have the emer gency spa rewheel replaced by
a qu alified specialist workshop.
The following should be checkedre gular ly, partic‐
ularly prior tolong journe ys:
R the secure positioning of the spare tyre
R the tyre pressure of the spare wheel (adjust
th e tyre pressure if necessary) (/ page 251)
R thefast enings of the spare wheel brac ket
The spare wheel is located in a spare wheel
brac ket under there ar of theve hicle.
Re place the tyres af ter six years at the latest,
re ga rdless of wear. This also applies tothe spare
wheel.
% If
yo u ha vefitted a spa rewheel, the tyre
pressure monitor will not function forth is wheel. The spare wheel is not equipped with
a sensor
for monitoring tyre pressu re. Fi
tting/ removing the spare wheel Re
