Preparing the vehicle
WARNING
The wheel and tire size of the emergency
spare wheel/spare wheel may differ to that of
the damaged wheel. When using an
emergency spare wheel/spare wheel the
handling characteristics of the vehicle may
change.
Adapt your style of driving accordingly.
Never operate the vehicle with more than one
emergency spare wheel/spare wheel that
differs in size.
Only use an emergency spare wheel/spare
wheel of a differing size briefly and do not
switch off ESP®.
When using an emergency spare wheel, you
must not exceed the maximum speed of
50 mph (80 km/h).
WARNING
Have the emergency spare wheel/spare
wheel replaced with a new wheel as soon as
possible at a qualified specialist workshop
which has the necessary specialist knowledge
and tools to carry out the work required.
Mercedes-Benz recommends that you use an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center for this purpose. In particular, work relevant to safety or on safety-related systems must be carried out at a qualified specialist workshop.
Vehicles without a spare wheel/emergency spare wheel are not equipped
with a tire-change tool kit at the factory. For
more information on which tools are
required to perform a wheel change on your
vehicle, e.g. wheel chock, lug wrench or
alignment bolt, consult an authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center.
– Prepare the vehicle as described.
– If a trailer is coupled to the vehicle,
uncouple it.
– Remove the following items (depending on
the vehicle's equipment) from the stowage
well under the trunk floor:
- the emergency spare wheel
- the lug wrench
- the folding wheel chock
- the jack
- the ratchet wrench
- the alignment bolt
– Secure the vehicle to prevent it from rolling
away.
