If the parking brake is released and the
brake warning lamp in the instrument
cluster stays on, the brake fluid level in
the reservoir is too low.
Warning!
Do not allow your tires to wear down
too far. With less than 3 mm (1/8 in)
of tread, the adhesion properties on
a wet road are sharply reduced.
Brake pad wear or a leak in the system
may be the reason for low brake fluid
in the reservoir.
Depending upon the weather and/or
road surface (conditions), the tire
traction varies widely.
Have the brake system inspected at an
authorized MERCEDES-BENZ dealer
immediately.
Specified tire pressures must be
maintained. This applies particularly if
the tires are subjected to high loads
(e.g. high speeds, heavy loads, high
ambient temperatures).
Install only brake pads and brake fluid
recommended by MERCEDES-BENZ.
Warning!
Tires
Warning!
If other than recommended brake
pads are installed, the braking
properties of the vehicle can be
affected to an extent that the safety is
substantially impaired.
Tread wear indicators (TWI) are
required by law. These indicators are
located in six places on the tread
circumference and become visible at a
depth of approx. 2 mm (1/16 in), at
which point the tire is considered worn
and should be replaced.
Do not drive with a flat tire. A flat
tire affects the ability to steer or
brake the vehicle. You may lose
control of the car. Continued driving
with a flat tire or driving at high
speed with a flat tire will cause
excessive heat build-up and possibly
a fire, or tire blowout.
The tread wear indicator appears as a
solid band across the tread.
