20 psi (1.3 bar) do not continue to drive the
vehicle.
Park your vehicle safely away from the
roadway and contact the nearest
authorized Mercedes-Benz Center or

Warning!
Follow recommend inflation pressures.
Do not overinflate tires. Overinflating tires
can result in sudden deflation (blowout)
because they are more likely to become
punctured or damaged by road debris,
potholes, etc.
Do not underinflate tires. Underinflated
tires wear unevenly, adversely affect
handling and fuel economy, and are more
likely to fail from being overheated.
Do not overload the tires by exceeding the
specified vehicle capacity weight (as
indicated by the label on the pillar in the
driver’s door opening). Overloading the
tires can overheat them, possibly causing a
blowout.

Drive to the nearest qualified workshop,
e.g. an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center,
to have the damaged tire replaced.

Recommended duration of use: A
maximum of 300 miles (500 km) at 50 mph
(80 km/h) or below with the recommended
