To raise the vehicle, only use the vehicle-spe- cific jack that has been tested and approved by Mercedes-Benz. If used incorrectly, the jack could tip over with the vehicle raised. The jack is designed only to raise and hold the vehicle for a short time while a wheel is being changed.
Page 345: Removing A Wheel
Changing a wheel slippery surface, a non-slip underlay must be used, e.g. rubber mats. Do not use wooden blocks or similar objects as a jack underlay. Otherwise, the jack will not be able to achieve its load-bearing capacity due to the restricted height. Make sure that the distance between the underside of the tires and the ground does not exceed 1.2 in (3 cm).
