Take the following steps to stow a used collapsible spare wheel. It will otherwise not fit in the spare wheel well. Mercedes-Benz recommends that you have this work carried out at a qualified specialist workshop, e.g. an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center.

Only place the collapsible spare wheel in the vehicle when it is dry. Otherwise, moisture may get into the vehicle.

• Remove the valve extractor from the vehicle tool kit.
• Unscrew the valve cap from the valve.
• Unscrew the valve insert from the valve and release the air.

Fully deflating the tire can take a few minutes.

• Screw the valve insert back into the valve.
• Screw the valve cap back on.
• Place the valve extractor back into the vehicle tool kit.
• Stow the collapsible spare wheel in the emergency spare wheel well under the cargo compartment and fasten in place.
