Minispare wheel (except ML 63 AMG)

Warning! G

The dimensions of the Minispare wheel are

different from those of the road wheels. As

a result, the vehicle handling characteristics

change when driving with a Minispare wheel

mounted. Adapt your driving style accord-

ingly.

The Minispare wheel is for temporary use

only. When driving with a Minispare wheel

mounted, ensure proper tire inflation

pressure and do not exceed a vehicle speed

of 50 mph (80 km/h).

Drive to the nearest Mercedes-Benz Light

Truck Center as soon as possible to have the

Minispare wheel replaced with a regular

road wheel.

Never operate the vehicle with more than

one spare wheel mounted.

Do not switch off the ESP

®

when a

Minispare wheel is mounted.
