Use of snow chains is not permissible
with all wheel/tire combinations.
If you use your spare tire when winter tires
are fitted on the other wheels, be aware that
the difference in tire characteristics may
very well impair turning stability and that
overall driving stability may be reduced.
Adapt your driving style accordingly.

Snow chains should only be used on
the rear wheels. Follow the manufac-
turer's mounting instructions.

Only use snow chains that are ap-
proved by Mercedes-Benz. Your autho-
rized Mercedes-Benz Center will be
glad to advise you on this subject.
Have the spare tire replaced with a winter
tire at the nearest authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center.
Snow chains should only be driven on
snow-covered roads at speeds not to ex-
ceed 30 mph (50 km/h). Remove chains
as soon as possible when driving on roads
without snow.
Use of snow chains may be prohibited
depending on location. Always check
local and state laws before installing
snow chains.
