Tires and wheels
If applicable to your vehicle’s tire configu-
ration, tires can be rotated according to
the tire manufacturer's recommended in-
tervals in the tire manufacturer's warranty
pamphlet located in your vehicle literature
portfolio. If none is available, tires should
be rotated every 3000 to 6 000 miles

Warning!
If your vehicle is equipped with a tire
pressure monitoring system*, there
are electronic components built into
the wheel.
Do not use mounting tools in the area
of the valve as they could damage the
electronic components.
To prevent damage or incorrect instal-
lation, have the tires changed at an
authorized Mercedes-Benz Center.
Have the tightening torque checked after
changing a wheel. Wheels could become
loose if not tightened with a torque of
96
lb-ft (130 Nm).

sary, according to the degree of tire wear.
The same rotation (spinning) direction
must be maintained (୴ page 290).
For information on wheel change, see the
“Practical hints” section (୴ page 375) and
(୴ page 395).
Rotate tires before the characteristic tire
wear pattern becomes visible (shoulder
wear on front tires and tread center wear
on rear tires).
Thoroughly clean the mounting face of
wheels and brake disks, i.e. the inner side
of the wheels/tires, during each rotation.
Check for and ensure proper tire inflation
pressure, activating the tire pressure mon-
itoring system* if necessary.
