there are tears in the sidewalls of the tyre.
After driving in run-flat mode, you must have
the wheel(s) checked for damage at a quali-
fied specialist workshop which has the nec-
essary specialist knowledge and tools to carry
out the workrequired. The faulty tyre must be
replaced in every case.
Mercedes-Benz recommends that you use a
Mercedes-Benz Service Centre for this pur-
pose. In particular, work relevant to safety or
on safety-related systems must be carried out
at a qualified specialist workshop.

When replacing one or all tyres, make
sure that you only use tyres marked
MOExtended and of the specified size for
the vehicle.
i
Vehicles with MOExtended tyres are not
equipped with a TIREFIT kit at the factory.
It is therefore recommended that you addi-
tionally equip your vehicle with a TIREFIT kit
if you fit tyres that do not feature run-flat
properties, e.g. winter tyres. A TIREFIT kit
can be obtained from a Mercedes-Benz
Service Centre.

replace the battery with one that has a central
ventilation cover.
Only replace a battery with a battery that has
been recommended by Mercedes-Benz.
