General notes

!

For safety reasons, Mercedes-Benz rec-

ommends that you only use tires and

wheels which have been approved by

Mercedes-Benz specifically for your vehi-

cle.

These tires have been specially adapted for

use with the control systems, such as ABS

®

, and are marked as follows:

tain AMG tires)

Mercedes-Benz Original Extended tires

may only be used on wheels that have been

specifically approved by Mercedes-Benz.
Only use tires, wheels or accessories tes-

ted and approved by Mercedes-Benz. Cer-

tain characteristics, e.g. handling, vehicle

noise emissions or fuel consumption, may

otherwise be adversely affected. In addi-

tion, when driving with a load, tire dimen-

sion variations could cause the tires to

come into contact with the bodywork and

axle components. This could result in dam-

age to the tires or the vehicle.
Mercedes-Benz accepts no liability for

damage resulting from the use of tires,

wheels or accessories other than those tes-

ted and approved.
Information on tires, wheels and approved

combinations can be obtained from any

qualified specialist workshop.
