On light downhill gradients: place

chocks or other suitable items in front of

the wheels of the front and rear axle.

Raising the vehicle

WARNING

If you do not position the jack correctly at the

appropriate jacking point of the vehicle, the

jack could tip over with the vehicle raised.

There is a risk of injury.

Only position the jack at the appropriate jack-

ing point of the vehicle. The base of the jack

must be positioned vertically, directly under

the jacking point of the vehicle.

AMG vehicles with "Minispare" emer-

gency spare wheel: use the "Minispare"

emergency spare wheel only on the rear

axle. If you mount the "Minispare" emer-

gency spare wheel on the front axle, this

could result in damage to the brake system.

If a tire on the front axle is defective, an

intact wheel from the rear axle must first be

replaced with the "Minispare" emergency

spare wheel. The faulty wheel on the front

axle may only then be replaced by the

undamaged wheel from the rear axle.

Make sure to note the placard on the

"Minispare" emergency spare wheel.

The jack is designed exclusively for jack-

ing up the vehicle at the jacking points.

Otherwise, your vehicle could be damaged.

Observe the following when raising the vehi-

cle:

To raise the vehicle, only use the vehicle-

specific jack that has been tested and

approved by Mercedes-Benz. If used incor-

rectly, the jack could tip over with the vehi-

cle raised.

The jack is designed only to raise and hold

the vehicle for a short time while a wheel

is being changed. It is not suited for per-

forming maintenance work under the vehi-

cle.

Avoid changing the wheel on uphill and

downhill slopes.

Before raising the vehicle, secure it from

rolling away by applying the parking brake

and inserting wheel chocks. Do not disen-

gage the parking brake while the vehicle is

raised.

The jack must be placed on a firm, flat and

non-slip surface. On a loose surface, a

large, flat, load-bearing underlay must be

used. On a slippery surface, a non-slip

underlay must be used, e.g. rubber mats.

Do not use wooden blocks or similar

objects as a jack underlay. Otherwise, the

jack will not be able t

o achieve its load-

bearing capacity due to the restricted

height.

Make sure that the distance between the

underside of the tires and the ground does

not exceed 1.2 in (3 cm).

Do not place your hands or feet under the

raised vehicle.

Do not lie under the vehicle.

Do not start the engine when the vehicle is

raised.

Never open or close a door or the tailgate

when the vehicle is raised.

Make sure that no persons are present in

the vehicle when the vehicle is raised.
