WARNING Risk of injury through exceed‐
ing the specified tyre load-bearing capa‐
city or the permissible speed rating
Exceeding the load-bearing capacity of the
tyres can lead to tyre damage and could
cause the tyres to explode.
#
Therefore, only use tyre types and sizes
approved for your vehicle model.
#
Observe the tyre load-bearing capacity
rating and speed rating required for
your vehicle.
* NOTE Vehicle and tyre damage through
tyre types and sizes that have not been
approved
For safety reasons, only use tyres, wheels
and accessories which have been specially
approved by Mercedes-Benz for your vehicle.
These tyres are specially adapted to the
active safety systems, such as ABS, ESP
®
and 4MATIC, and marked as follows:
R
MO = Mercedes-Benz Original
R
MOE = Mercedes-Benz Original Extended
(run-flat tyres only for certain wheels)
R
MO1 = Mercedes-Benz Original (only cer‐
tain AMG tyres)
Otherwise, certain properties, such as han‐
dling characteristics, vehicle noise emis‐
sions, consumption, etc. could be adversely
affected. Furthermore, other tyre sizes could
result in the tyres rubbing against the body
and axle components when loaded. This
could result in damage to the tyre or the
vehicle.
Only use tyres, wheels and accessories that
have been checked and recommended by
Mercedes-Benz.
* NOTE Risk to driving safety from retrea‐
ded tyres
Retreaded tyres are neither tested nor rec‐
ommended by Mercedes-Benz, since previ‐
ous damage cannot always be detected on
retreaded tyres.
For this reason driving safety cannot be guar‐
anteed.
#
Do not use used tyres if you have no
information about their previous usage.
* NOTE Possible wheel and tyre damage
when driving over obstacles
Large wheels have a smaller section width.
As the section width decreases, the risk of
wheels and tyres being damaged when driv‐
ing over obstacles increases.
#
Avoid obstacles or drive especially care‐
fully.
#
Reduce your speed when driving over
kerbs, speed bumps, manhole covers
and potholes.
