Risk of accident
Have the collapsible emergency spare
wheel* replaced with a new wheel as soon as
possible at a qualified specialist workshop
which has the necessary specialist knowledge
and tools to carry out the work required.
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.
Preparing the vehicle
i
Vehicles without a spare wheel* are not
equipped with a vehicle tool kit at the fac-
tory. For more information on which tools
are required to perform a wheel change on
your vehicle, e.g. wheel chock, jack, cen-
tring pin or wheel wrench, consult a
Mercedes-Benz Service Centre.
