Preparing the vehicle
Your vehicle may be equipped with:
- TIREFIT kit
- a "Minispare" emergency spare wheel
- a collapsible spare wheel
- MOExtended tires (tires with run-flat
properties)
Vehicle preparation is not necessary on vehicles with MOExtended tires.
Vehicles equipped with MOExtended tires are not equipped with a TIREFIT kit at the factory. It is therefore recommended that you additionally equip your vehicle with a TIREFIT kit if you mount tires that do not feature run-flat properties, e.g. winter tires.
A TIREFIT kit can be obtained from an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center.
•► Vehicles with AIRMATIC: make sure that "normal" level is selected
Stop the vehicle as far away as possible from traffic on solid, non-slippery and level ground.
•► Switch on the hazard warning lamps.
•► Firmly depress the parking brake.
•► Bring the front wheels into the straightahead position.
•► Move the selector lever/DIRECT SELECT lever to P.
•► Switch off the engine.
•► Vehicles without KEYLESS-GO: remove the SmartKey from the ignition lock.
•► Vehicles with KEYLESS-GO: open the driver's door.
The on-board electronics have status 0, which is the same as the SmartKey having been removed.

•► All occupants must get out of the vehicle.
Make sure that they are not endangered as they do so.
•► Make sure that no one is near the danger area while a wheel is being changed.
Anyone who is not directly assisting in the wheel change should, for example, stand behind the barrier.
•► Get out of the vehicle. Pay attention to traffic conditions when doing so.
