Wheel bolts 2 must be used when
mounting the Minispare wheel or other
steel rims. The use of any wheel bolts
other than wheel bolts 2 for the
Minispare wheel or other steel rims will
physically damage the vehicle's
brakes.

wheel hub.
!
To avoid paint damage, place wheel flat
against hub and hold it there while
installing first wheel bolt.
Warning!
Always replace wheel bolts that are
damaged or rusted.
Never apply oil or grease to wheel bolts.
Damaged wheel hub threads should be
repaired immediately. Do not continue to
drive under these circumstances! Contact
an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center or call
