Notes on snow chains

& WARNING Risk of accident due to incor‐
rect mounting of snow chains
If you have mounted snow chains to the front
wheels, the snow chains may drag against
the vehicle body or chassis components.
This could cause damage to the vehicle or
the tires.
Never mount snow chains on the front
#
wheels.
Only mount snow chains on the rear
#
wheels in pairs.
* NOTE Damage to the wheel trim from
mounted snow chains
If snow chains are mounted to steel wheels,
the wheel trims can be damaged.
Remove the wheel trims of steel wheels
#
before mounting snow chains.
Observe the following notes when using snow
chains:
Snow chains are only permissible for certain
R
wheel/tire combinations. You can obtain
information about this from an authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center.
For safety reasons, only use snow chains that
R
have been specifically approved for your
vehicle by Mercedes-Benz, or snow chains
with the same quality standard.
If snow chains are installed, the maximum
R
permissible speed is 30 mph (50 km/h).
Vehicles with level control: If snow chains
R
are installed, only drive at raised vehicle
level.

You can deactivate ESP ® to pull away
( page 124). This allows the wheels to
/
spin, achieving an increased driving force.

Tire pressure

Notes on tire pressure
& WARNING Risk of accident due to insuf‐
ficient or excessive tire pressure
Underinflated or overinflated tires pose the
following risks:
The tires may burst, especially as the
R
load and vehicle speed increase.
The tires may wear excessively and/or
R
unevenly, which may greatly impair tire
traction.
The driving characteristics, as well as
R
steering and braking, may be greatly
impaired.
Comply with the recommended tire
#
pressure and check the tire pressure of
all tires including the spare wheel regu‐
larly:
at least once a month
R
when the load changes
