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.
Some tire sizes do not leave adequate clearance
for snow chains. To help avoid serious damage to
your vehicle or tires, use of snow chains is not
permissible with the spare wheel.
(
୴ page 532).
Snow chains should only be used on
the rear wheels. Follow the manufac-
turer’s mounting instructions.

Vehicles with Adaptive Damping
System (ADS)*: When driving with snow chains,
Have the spare tire replaced with a winter
tire at the nearest authorized
Mercedes-Benz Light Truck Center.
Only use snow chains that are
approved by Mercedes-Benz. Your
authorized Mercedes-Benz Light Truck
Center will be glad to advise you on this
subject.

i When driving with snow chains, you may
wish to deactivate the ESP® (୴ page 104) be-
fore setting the vehicle in motion. This will im-
prove the vehicle’s traction.

Use of snow chains may be prohibited
depending on location. Always check
local and state laws before installing
snow chains.

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.
Do not use snow chains on the spare
wheel (୴ page 534).
