Test battery: Battery capacity
drops with decreasing ambient
temperature. A well charged
battery ensures that the engine can
always be started, even at low
ambient temperatures.
Chains should only be used on the rear
wheels. Follow the manufacturer's
mounting instructions.
Winter Driving
Have your car winterized at your
authorized Mercedes-Benz dealer
before the onset of winter.
Snow chains should only be driven on
snow covered roads at speeds not to
exceed 30 mph (50 km/h). Remove
chains as soon as possible when
driving on roads without snow.
Tires: We recommend M + S
radial tires on all four wheels for
the winter season. Observe
permissible maximum speed for M
+ S radial tires and the legal speed
limit.

Change the engine oil if the
engine contains an oil which is
not approved for winter operation.
For viscosity (SAE class) and
filling quantity, see
Capacities: Fuels, Coolants,
Lubricants etc. in Index.
For tips on driving on slippery
winter roads, refer to Index.

Regulation (ASR) or Electronic
Stability Program (ESP):
Note:
In winter operation, the maximum
effectiveness of the electronic stability
program, of the acceleration slip
regulation or of the electronic traction
system can only be achieved with M +
S radial-ply tires and/or snow chains
recommended by Mercedes-Benz.
•
Check engine coolant
anticorrosion/antifreeze
concentration.
When driving with snow chains,
