Notes on snow chains
WARNING Risk of accident due to incorrect snow chain fitting

If you have fitted snow chains to the front wheels, the snow chains may drag against the vehicle body or chassis components.

This could cause damage to the vehicle or the tyres.

Never fit snow chains on the front wheels.
Only fit snow chains on the rear wheels in pairs.
NOTE Damage to components of the vehicle body or chassis due to fitted snow chains

If you fit snow chains to the front wheels of 4MATIC vehicles, you may damage components of the vehicle body or chassis.

Only fit snow chains to the rear wheels of 4MATIC vehicles.
Observe the following notes when using snow chains:
  • Snow chains are only permissible for certain wheel/tyre combinations. You can obtain information about this from a Mercedes-Benz Service Centre.

  • For safety reasons, only use snow chains that have been specifically approved for your vehicle by Mercedes-Benz, or snow chains with the same quality standard.

  • If snow chains are fitted, the maximum permissible speed is 50 km/h.

  • Vehicles with Active Parking Assist: do not use Active Parking Assist when snow chains are fitted.

  • Vehicles with level control: if snow chains are fitted, only drive at raised vehicle level More.

  • Vehicles with rear axle steering: if snow chains are fitted, only drive with snow chain mode active More.

You can deactivate ESP® to pull away More. This allows the wheels to spin, achieving an increased driving force.
