Preparing the vehicle
Park the vehicle in a safe distance from
moving traffic on a hard, flat surface
when possible.
Turn on the hazard warning flashers.
Turn the steering wheel so that the
front wheels are in a straight ahead po-
sition.
Set the parking brake.
Move the gear selector lever to P.
Vehicles with SmartKey:
Turn off the engine ( page 62).
Remove the SmartKey from the starter
switch.
Vehicles with KEYLESS-GO*:
Turn off the engine by pressing the
KEYLESS-GO* button on the gear
selector lever once ( page 62).
Open the driver's door (this puts
the starter switch in position 0,
same as with the SmartKey re-
moved from the starter switch). The
driver's door then can be closed
again.

Open door only when conditions are safe to
do so.
Have any passenger exit the vehicle at
a safe distance from the roadway.
Practical hints
Mounting the spare wheel
Warning!
The dimensions of the spare wheel are dif-
ferent from those of the road wheels. As a
result, the vehicle handling characteristics
change when driving with a mounted spare
wheel. Adapt your driving style accordingly.
The spare wheel is for temporary use only.
When driving with spare wheel mounted, en-
sure proper tire inflation pressure and do
not exceed vehicle speed of 50 mph
(80 km/h).
Drive to the nearest Mercedes-Benz Center
as soon as possible to have the spare wheel
replaced with a regular road wheel.
Never operate the vehicle with more than
one spare wheel mounted.
®
Do not switch off the ESP
when a spare
wheel is mounted.
