Tire Traction
The safe speed on a wet, snow
covered or icy road is always
lower than on a dry road.
You should pay particular attention
to the condition of the road when
ever the outside temperatures are
close to the freezing point.
Warning!
If ice has formed on the road,
tire traction will be substan
tially reduced. Under such
weather conditions, drive,
steer and brake with extreme
caution.
We recommend M + S radial-ply
tires for the winter season for all
four wheels to insure normal bal
anced handling characteristics. On
packed snow, they can reduce
your stopping distance as com
pared with summer tires. Stopping
distance, however, is still con
siderably greater than when the
road is wet or dry.
Tire Speed Rating
Model C 36 AMG only:
This vehicle is factory equipped
with “ Z ” -rated tires.
All other models:
These vehicles are factory
equipped with “ H ” -rated tires,
which have a European speed
rating of 130 mph (210 km/h). An
electronic speed limiter prevents
your vehicle from exceeding the
speed rating.
Despite the tire rating, local speed
limits should be obeyed. Use pru
dent driving speeds appropriate to
prevailing conditions.
Warning!
Even when permitted by law,
never operate a vehicle at
speeds greater than the maxi
mum speed rating of the tires.
Exceeding the maximum
speed for which tires are rated
can lead to sudden tire failure
causing loss of vehicle control
and resulting in personal
injury and possible death.
Parking
Warning!
To reduce the risk of personal
injury as a result of vehicle
movement, before turning off
the engine and leaving the
vehicle always:
1. Keep right foot on brake
pedal.
2. Firmly depress parking
brake pedal.
3. Move the selector lever to
position “P”.
4. Slowly release brake pedal.
5. Turn front wheels towards
the road curb.
6
. Turn the key to steering
lock position 0 and remove.
Important!
It is advisable to set the parking
brake whenever parking or leaving
the vehicle. In addition, move
selector lever to position “ P” .
When parking on hills, always set
the parking brake.
