* NOTE Risk to driving safety from retrea‐
ded tyres
Retreaded tyres are neither tested nor rec‐
ommended by Mercedes-Benz, since previ‐
ous damage cannot always be detected on
retreaded tyres.
For this reason driving safety cannot be guar‐
anteed.
Do not use used tyres if you have no
#
information about their previous usage.
* NOTE Possible wheel and tyre damage
when driving over obstacles
Large wheels have a smaller section width.
As the section width decreases, the risk of
wheels and tyres being damaged when driv‐
ing over obstacles increases.
Avoid obstacles or drive especially care‐
#
fully.
Reduce your speed when driving over
#
kerbs, speed bumps, manhole covers
and potholes.
Avoid particularly high kerbs.
#
* NOTE Possible wheel and tyre damage
when parking on kerbs or in potholes
Parking on kerbs or in potholes may damage
the wheels and tyres.
If possible, park only on flat surfaces.
#
Avoid kerbs and potholes when parking.
#
* NOTE Damage to electronic component
parts from the use of tyre-fitting tools
Vehicles with a tyre pressure monitoring
system: electronic component parts are
located in the wheel. Tyre-fitting tools should
not be applied in the area of the valve.
The tools could damage the electronic com‐
ponent parts.
Have the tyres changed at a qualified
#
specialist workshop only.

M+S tyres.
Accessory parts which are not approved for your
vehicle by Mercedes-Benz, or which are not used
