Electrical system

Fuses

Data on the replacement fuse must

match the data on the defective fuse.
There are three fuse boxes in the

vehicle:

● In the front left of the engine

compartment,

● In left-hand drive vehicles, in the

interior behind the storage

compartment, or, in right-hand

drive vehicles, behind the

glovebox,

● Behind a cover on the left side of

the load compartment.

Before replacing a fuse, turn off the

respective switch and the ignition.
A blown fuse can be recognized by its

melted wire. Do not replace the fuse

until the cause of the fault has been

remedied.
Some functions are protected by

several fuses.
Fuses may also be inserted without

existence of a function.

Fuse extractor

A fuse extractor may be located in the

fuse box in the engine compartment.

Vehicle care

205

Place the fuse extractor on the

various types of fuse from the top or

side, and withdraw fuse.

Engine compartment fuse

box

The fuse box is in the front left of the

engine compartment.
Disengage the cover and fold it

upwards until it stops. Remove the

cover vertically upwards.

Vehicle tools

Tools

Vehicles with spare wheel

Open the load floor cover. The jack,

the tools and a strap for securing a

damaged wheel are in the tool box

below the spare wheel in the load

compartment.
The wheel wrench and the towing eye

are in the tool bag located in the spare

wheel well near the tool box. The tool

bag is fixated with a tether to the stow

rod. Remove tool box and tool bag

tether from the stow rod to access the

tools in the bag.
Spare wheel 3 223.

Vehicles with tyre repair kit

Some tools and the towing eye are

located together with the tyre repair

kit in a tool box in the load

compartment below the floor cover.

Vehicles with tyre repair kit and

flat load compartment floor

Some tools and the towing eye are

located together with the tyre repair

kit in a bag, which is fixed at the front

left lashing eye in the load

compartment.

Wheels and tyres

Wheels

On vehicles with Diesel engines no

steel rims and only special, for this

vehicle approved alloy wheels are

permitted.

Tyre condition, wheel condition

Drive over edges slowly and at right

angles if possible. Driving over sharp

edges can cause tyre and wheel

damage. Do not trap tyres on the kerb

when parking.
Regularly check the wheels for

damage. Seek the assistance of a

workshop in the event of damage or

unusual wear.

Winter tyres

Winter tyres improve driving safety at

temperatures below 7 °C and should

therefore be fitted on all wheels.
All tyre sizes are permitted as winter

tyres 3 247.

Use tyre size 225/55 R17 only as

winter tyres.
On vehicles with Diesel engines, no

steel rims and only special, vehicle-

approved alloy wheels are permitted.
In accordance with country-specific

regulations, affix the speed sticker in

the driver's field of view.

Tyre designations

E.g. 235/55 R 17 99 V
235 : Tyre width, mm

55 : Cross-section ratio (tyre height

to tyre width), %

R

: Belt type: Radial

RF : Type: RunFlat

17 : Wheel diameter, inches

99 : Load index e.g. 99 is

equivalent to 775 kg

V

: Speed code letter

Speed code letter:
Q : up to 160 km/h

S : up to 180 km/h

T : up to 190 km/h

H : up to 210 km/h

V : up to 240 km/h

W : up to 270 km/h

Choose a tyre appropriate for the

maximum speed of your vehicle.
The maximum speed is achievable at

kerb weight with driver (75 kg) plus

125 kg payload. Optional equipment

could reduce the maximum speed of

the vehicle.
Performance 3 242.

Directional tyres

Fit directional tyres such that they roll

in the direction of travel. The rolling

direction is indicated by a symbol

(e.g. an arrow) on the sidewall.

Tyre pressure monitoring

system

The tyre pressure monitoring system

checks the pressure of all four tyres

once a minute when vehicle speed

exceeds a certain limit.

212

Vehicle care

Caution

Tyre pressure monitoring system

warns only about low tyre pressure

condition and does not replace

regular tyre maintenance by the

driver.

All wheels must be equipped with

pressure sensors and the tyres must

have the prescribed pressure.

Note

In countries where the tyre pressure

monitoring system is legally

required, the use of wheels without

pressure sensors will invalidate the

vehicle type approval.

The current tyre pressures can be

shown in the Vehicle Information

Menu in the Driver Information

Centre.
The menu can be selected by the

buttons on the turn signal lever.

Press MENU to select the Vehicle

Information MenuX.

Turn the adjuster wheel to select the

tyre pressure monitoring system.

System status and pressure warnings

are displayed by a message

indicating the corresponding tyre in

the Driver Information Centre.
The system considers the tyre

temperature for the warnings.
Temperature dependency 3 215.

A detected low tyre pressure

condition is indicated by control

indicator w 3 94.
If w illuminates, stop as soon as

possible and inflate the tyres as

recommended 3 247.

Vehicle care

213

If w flashes for 60-90 seconds then

illuminates continuously, there is a

fault in the system. Consult a

workshop.
After inflating, driving may be

required to update the tyre pressure

values in the Driver Information

Centre. During this time w may

illuminate.
If w illuminates at lower temperatures

and extinguishes after driving, this

could be an indicator for approaching

a low tyre pressure condition. Check

tyre pressure.
Vehicle messages 3 102.
If the tyre pressure must be reduced

or increased, switch off ignition.
Only mount wheels with pressure

sensors, otherwise the tyre pressure

will not be displayed and w

illuminates continuously.
A spare wheel or temporary spare

wheel is not equipped with pressure

sensors. The tyre pressure

monitoring system is not operational

for these tyres. Control indicator w

illuminates. For the further three

wheels the system remains

operational.
The use of commercially-available

liquid tyre repair kits can impair the

function of the system. Factory-

approved repair kits can be used.
Operating electronic devices or being

close to facilities using similar wave

frequencies could disrupt the tyre

pressure monitoring system.
Each time the tyres are replaced, tyre

pressure sensors must be

dismounted and serviced. For the

screwed sensor: replace valve core

and sealing ring. For clipped sensor:

replace complete valve stem.

Vehicle loading status

Adjust tyre pressure to load condition

according to the tyre information label

or tyre pressure chart 3 247, and

select the appropriate setting in the

Tyre load menu in the Driver

Information Centre 3 96. This setting

is the reference for the tyre pressure

warnings.

The menu Tyre Load only appears if

the vehicle is at a standstill and the

parking brake is applied. On vehicles

with automatic transmission, the

selector lever must be in P.

Select:

● Light for comfort pressure up to

3 people

● Eco for Eco pressure up to

3 people

● Max for full loading
