Spare wheel
However, that spare wheel rim is weight
optimized and has a limited service life of
12000 miles (20000 km) use before a
standard wheel rim must replace it.
Warning!
Removing the spare wheel
The jack is designed exclusively for jacking
up the vehicle at the jack take-up brackets
built into both sides of the vehicle. To help
avoid personal injury, use the jack only to lift
the vehicle during a wheel change. Never
get beneath the vehicle while it is supported
by the jack. Keep hands and feet away from
the area under the lifted vehicle. Always
firmly set parking brake and block wheels
before raising vehicle with jack.

Take out the vehicle tool kit tray 2.
In case of flat tire, you may temporarily use
the spare wheel.
̈ Loosen the luggage bowl 3. To do so,
turn the luggage bowl counterclock-
wise.
Do not operate vehicle with more than one
spare wheel mounted.

Warning!

Storing the spare wheel
̈ Place spare wheel 4 in wheel well.
Never operate the vehicle with more than
one spare wheel mounted.
Do not disengage parking brake while the
vehicle is raised. Be certain that the jack is
always vertical (plumb line) when in use, es-
pecially on hills. Always try to use the jack
on level surface. Make sure the jack arm is
fully seated in the jack take-up bracket. Al-
ways lower the vehicle onto sufficient ca-
pacity jackstands before working under the
vehicle.
̈ Secure the spare wheel. To do so, turn
the luggage bowl 3 clockwise to its
stop.
The spare wheel rim is for temporary use
only. Use for over a total of 12000 miles
(20000 km) (aggregate of all uses) may
cause wheel rim failure leading to an acci-
dent and possible injuries.
̈
Place vehicle tool kit tray 2 in luggage
bowl.
Spare wheel S 350, S 430, S 500 and
S 600 (except Sport Package*)
The spare wheel should only be used tempo-
rarily and replaced with a regular road wheel
as quickly as possible.
The spare wheel rim is mounted with a full
sized tire of the same type as on the vehi-
cle, and it is fully functional.
