Points to remember
G Warning
Observe the "Important safety information"
(
Y page 334).
!
For safety reasons, Mercedes-Benz
recommends that you only use tires,
wheels and accessories which have been
approved by Mercedes-Benz specifically
for your vehicle. These tires have been
specially adapted for use with the control
systems, such as ABS or ESP®, and are
marked as follows:
RMO = Mercedes-Benz Original
RMOE = Mercedes-Benz Original Extended
(tires with run-flat characteristics)
RMO1 = Mercedes-Benz Original (AMG)
Further information on the recommended tire
inflation pressure and on tire pressures for
specific driving conditions, see (Y page 336).
i Notes on the vehicle equipment:
Ralways mount tires of the same size on a
given axle (left/right).
Ralways mount the same type of tires on
your vehicle at a given time (summer
tires, winter tires, MOExtended tires).
i Vehicles featuring the MOExtended run-
flat system are not equipped with a TIREFIT
kit.
Only use Mercedes-Benz Original Extended
tires on wheels that have been specifically
approved by Mercedes-Benz.
It is therefore recommended that you
additionally equip your vehicle with the
TIREFIT kit if you mount tires that do not
feature run-flat properties, e.g. winter tires.
A TIREFIT kit is available from any qualified
specialist workshop, e.g. an authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center.
If you use other tires, wheels and
accessories, Mercedes-Benz cannot
accept any responsibility for damage that
may result from this. Further information
about tires, wheels and approved
combinations can be obtained from any
authorized Mercedes-Benz Center.
