Vehicle equipment i This manual describes all the standard and optional equipment of your vehicle which was available at the time of purchase. Country-specific differences are possible. Bear in mind that your vehicle may not feature all functions described here.
Directives to be observed R Only mount tires and wheels of the same type and make. R Only mount tires of the correct size onto the wheels. R After mounting new tires, run them in at moderate speeds for the first 60 miles (100 km) as they only reach their full performance after this distance.
approaches 1 / 8 in (3 mm), the adhesion properties on a wet road are sharply reduced. Depending upon the weather and/or road surface (conditions), the tire traction varies widely. Do not use tires until they are excessively worn as the tire traction on wet road surfaces decreases significantly when the tread depth is less than 1 / 8 in (3 mm).
pressure can be checked in the on-board computer. G Warning! Should the tire pressure drop repeatedly: R check the tire for foreign bodies. R check whether the wheel is losing air or the valve is leaking. R make sure that only a valve cap approved by Mercedes-Benz is installed on the tire valve.
Additional specifications of tire pressure values for loads can also be found on the tire pressure table on the inside of the fuel filler flap. The tire pressure for emergency spare wheels can be foun.
Overinflated tires can: G Warning Follow recommended tire inflation pressures. Do not overinflate tires. Overinflated tires can adversely affect handling and ride comfort, wear unevenly, increase stopping distance, and result in sudden deflation (blowout) because they are more likely to become punctured or damaged by road debris, potholes etc.
the vehicle's Tire and Loading Information placard or (where available) in the tire pressure table. Driving on a significantly underinflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Underinflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle's handling and stopping ability.
If you wish to confirm the restart: X Press the a button. The Tire Pressure Now OK? message appears in the multifunction display. X Press 9 or : to select Yes . X Press the a button. The Run Flat Indicator Restarted message appears in the multifunction display.

installed is not the same as the current tire pressure for the spare wheel. TPMS warning messages If the TPMS detects a significant pressure loss on one or more tires, a warning message is shown in the multifunction display. In addition, a warning tone sounds and the tire pressure warning lamp lights up in the instrument cluster.
Do not underinflate tires. Underinflated tires wear excessively and/or unevenly, adversely affect handling and fuel economy, and are more likely to fail from being overheated.
differ from that which is illustrated. You can find the valid maximum permissible gross vehicle weight rating for your vehicle on the Tire and Loading Information placard.
Determining the maximum load The following steps have been developed as required of all manufacturers under Title 49, Code of U.S. Federal Regulations, Part 575 pursuant to the "National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act of 1966".
Example 1 Example 2 Example 3 Weight of the occupants Occupant 1: 150 lbs (68 kg) Occupant 2: 180 lbs (82 kg) Occupant 3: 160 lbs (73 kg) Occupant 4: 140 lbs (63 kg) Occupant 5: 120 lbs (54 kg) Occupa.
Trailer load/noseweight The trailer load/noseweight affects the gross weight of the vehicle. If a trailer is attached, the trailer load/noseweight is included in the load along with occupants and luggage. The trailer load/noseweight is usually approximately 10% of the gross weight of the trailer and its cargo.
Where applicable, the tire grading information can be found on the tire sidewall between the tread shoulder and maximum tire width. For example: Tread wear Traction Temperature 200 AA A All passenger car tires must conform to the statutory safety requirements in addition to these grades.
car tires must meet under Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 109. Grades B and A represent higher levels of performance on the laboratory test wheel than the minimum required by law. Interchanging the wheels G Warning Rotate front and rear wheels only if the tires are of the same dimension.
Tire size designation, load-bearing capacity and speed index : Tire width ; Aspect ratio in percent = Tire code ? Rim diameter A Load bearing index B Speed index i Tire data is vehicle-specific and may deviate from the data in the example.

have been especially developed for driving on snow. An electronic speed limiter prevents your vehicle from exceeding a speed of 130 mph (210 km/h). The speed index of tires installed at the factory may be higher than the maximum speed that the electronic speed limiter permits.
Tire type code: tire type code ? can be used by the manufacturer as a code to describe specific characteristics of the tire. Date of manufacture: date of manufacture A provides information about the age of a tire. The first and second positions represent the week of manufacture, starting with "01" for the first calendar week.
Wheel rim The part of the wheel on which the tire is mounted. GAWR (Gross Axle Weight Rating) The GAWR is the maximum gross axle weight rating. The actual load on an axle must never exceed the gross axle weight rating. The gross axle weight rating can be found on the vehicle identification plate on the B-pillar on the driver's side.
PSI (pounds per square inch) Standard unit of measurement for tire pressure. Aspect ratio Relationship between tire height and tire width in percent. Tire pressure Pressure inside the tire applying an outward force to every square inch of the tire's surface.
Wheel/tire combinations Points to remember G Warning Observe the "Important safety notes" ( Y page 304). ! For safety reasons, Mercedes-Benz recommends that you only use tires, wheels and accessories which have been approved by Mercedes-Benz specifically for your vehicle.
