ponents when loaded. This could result in
damage to the tyre or the vehicle.
#
Only use tyres, wheels and accessories
that have been checked and recommen‐
ded by Mercedes-Benz.
*
NOTE Driving safety put at risk by retrea‐
ded tyres
Retreaded tyres are not checked or recom‐
mended by Mercedes-Benz, as previous dam‐
age is not always detected during the retread
process.
Driving safety cannot, therefore, be guaran‐
teed.
#
Do not use used tyres when their previ‐
ous usage is unknown.
*
NOTE Damage to electronic component
parts through the use of tyre-fitting tools
Vehicles with tyre pressure monitoring
system: there are electronic component
parts in the wheel. Tyre-fitting tools should
not be applied in the area of the valve.
Otherwise, the electronic component parts
could be damaged.
#
Always have tyres changed at a qualified
specialist workshop.
Accessories that are not approved for your vehi‐
cle by Mercedes-Benz, or are not being used cor‐
rectly, can impair operating safety.
Before purchasing and using non-approved
accessories, visit a qualified specialist workshop
and enquire about:
R
suitability
R
legal stipulations
R
factory recommendations
Observe the following points when selecting, fit‐
ting and replacing tyres:
R
Country-specific requirements for tyre
approval that define a specific tyre type for
your vehicle.
Furthermore, the use of certain tyre types in
certain regions and areas of operation can be
highly beneficial.
R
Use only tyres and wheels of the same type,
design (summer tyres, winter tyres, all-season
tyres) and make.
R
Only fit wheels of the same size and tread
design on one axle (left and right).
It is only permissible to fit a different wheel
size to this in the event of a flat tyre in order
to drive to the specialist workshop.
R
Only fit tyres of the correct size onto the
wheels.
R
Do not make any modifications to the brake
system, the wheels or the tyres.
The use of wheel spacers or brake dust
shields is not permitted and results in the
invalidation of the vehicle's general operating
permit.
R
Vehicles with a tyre pressure monitoring
system: all fitted wheels must be equipped
with functioning sensors for the tyre pressure
monitoring system.
R
At temperatures below 10 °C, use winter
tyres or all-season tyres marked M+S for all
wheels.
Winter tyres bearing the
i
snowflake sym‐
bol in addition to the M+S marking provide
the best possible grip in wintry road condi‐
tions.
R
For M+S tyres, only use tyres with the same
tread.
R
Observe the maximum permissible speed for
the M+S tyres fitted.
If this is below the vehicle's maximum speed,
this must be indicated in an appropriate label
in the driver's field of vision.
R
Run in new tyres at moderate speeds for the
first 100 km.
R
Replace the tyres after six years at the latest,
regardless of wear.

tact a qualified specialist workshop.
