Place chocks or other suitable items under

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.

Mercedes-AMG vehicles with

"Minispare" emergency spare wheel: only

use the "Minispare" emergency spare wheel

on the rear axle. If you mount the

"Minispare" emergency 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 damaged wheel on the front

axle can then be replaced by the undamaged

wheel from the rear axle.

Make sure to note the placard on the

"Minispare" emergency spare wheel.

Only position the jack at the appropriate

jacking point of the vehicle. Otherwise, you

could damage the vehicle.

Observe the following when raising the vehi-

cle:

To raise the vehicle, only use the vehicle-spe-

cific jack that has been tested and approved

by Mercedes-Benz. If used incorrectly, the

jack could tip over with the vehicle raised.

The jack is designed only to raise and hold the

vehicle for a short time while a wheel is being

changed. It must not be used for performing

maintenance work under the vehicle.

Avoid changing the wheel on uphill and down-

hill slopes.

Before raising the vehicle, secure it from roll-

ing away by applying the parking brake and

inserting wheel chocks. Do not disengage 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 to 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.

Using lug wrench :, loosen the bolts on the

wheel you wish to change by about one full

turn. Do not unscrew the bolts completely.
