Driving and parking 15
R ESP OFF
Characteristics when ESP is activated
ESP monitors and improves driving stability and traction, particularly in the following situations: R When pulling away on a wet or slippery road
way. R When braking. R In strong side winds when you are driving
faster than 47 mph (75 km/h).
ESP can stabilize the vehicle by intervening in the following ways: R One or more wheels are braked. R The engine output is adapted according to
the situation.
ESP is activated every time the engine is star ted regardless of whether ESP was in ESP SPORT or deactivated before the engine was switched off.
If the ESP warning lamp flashes in the instrument cluster, one or several vehicle wheels has reached its grip limit: R Adapt the driving style to suit the prevailing
road and weather conditions. R Do not deactivate ESP under any circum
stances. R Only depress the accelerator pedal as far as
is necessary.
Characteristics when ESP SPORT is activa ted
& WARNING Risk of skidding if ESP SPORT is used incorrectly
When you activate ESP SPORT, there is an increased risk of skidding and having an acci dent. # Activate ESP SPORT only in the cir
cumstances described below.
Select ESP SPORT when the vehicle's own oversteering and understeering characteristics are desired, e.g. on designated roads.
Driving with ESP SPORT or with ESP deactiva ted requires an extremely qualified and experi enced driver.
If ESP SPORT is activated and one or more wheels start to spin, the ESP warning lamp on the instrument cluster flashes. ESP then only stabilizes the vehicle to a limited degree.
ESP SPORT also has the following characteris tics: R ESP only improves driving stability to a limi
ted degree. R ETS/4ETS traction control is still active. R The engine's torque is only restricted to a
limited degree and the drive wheels can spin. The spinning of the wheels results in a cut ting action for better traction on loose surfa ces. R ESP continues to provide assistance when
the brakes are firmly applied. R Crosswind Assist is no longer active.
16 Driving and parking
Characteristics when ESP is deactivated
& WARNING Risk of skidding if ESP is deactivated
If you deactivate ESP, ESP cannot carry out vehicle stabilization. # ESP should only be deactivated in the
following situations.
When ESP is deactivated, the ESP OFF warning lamp and the ESP OFF message light up continuously in the instrument cluster.
Deactivating ESP has the following effects: R Driving stability will no longer be improved. R The drive wheels could spin. R ETS/4ETS traction control is still active. R Crosswind Assist is no longer active.
% Even when ESP is deactivated, you are still assisted by ESP when braking hard.
It may be best to activate ESP SPORT or deacti vate ESP in the following situations: R When using snow chains. R In deep snow. R On sand or gravel.
% Spinning the wheels results in a cutting action, which enhances traction.
% Activate ESP as soon as the situations described above no longer apply. ESP will otherwise not be able to stabilize the vehicle if the vehicle starts to skid or a wheel starts to spin.
If the ESP warning lamp lights up continu ously even when ESP is activated, ESP is not available due to a malfunction. Observe any information which may be displayed in the instrument cluster: R Warning and indicator lamps R Display messages
ETS/4ETS (Electronic Traction System) ETS/4ETS traction control is part of ESP.
ETS/4ETS can improve the vehicle's traction by intervening in the following ways: R The drive wheels are braked individually if
they spin. R More drive torque is transferred to the wheel
or wheels with traction.

Overview of the tire-change tool kit Apart from some country-specific variants, vehi cles are not equipped with a tire-change tool kit. For more information on which tire-changing tools are required and approved for performing a wheel change on your vehicle, consult a qualified specialist workshop. You require the following tools, for instance, to change a wheel: R Jack R Chock R Lug wrench R Alignment bolt
1 Jack 2 Ratchet for jack 3 Lug wrench 4 Folding chock 5 Alignment bolt 6 Socket wrench for ratchet
Setting up the folding chock

ing a wheel in the Operator's Manual of your vehicle.
Vehicles with AMG ceramic high-perform ance composite braking system:
36 Wheels and tires
* NOTE Damage to the ceramic brake disk when changing a wheel
Mercedes-AMG vehicles with ceramic brake disks: during removal and reposition ing of the wheel, the wheel rim may strike the ceramic brake disk and damage it. # Take particular care. # Ask another person for assistance or
use a second centering pin.
# When changing the wheel, avoid exerting any force on the brake discs. This can lead to impaired comfort during braking.
Installing/removing plastic hub caps

Operating fluids Fuel
Information on fuel grades for Mercedes- AMG vehicles Observe the information on operating fluids in the vehicle Operator's Manual.
* NOTE Damage caused by the wrong fuel
Even small amounts of the wrong fuel could result in damage to the fuel system, the engine and the emission control system. # Only refuel with low-sulfur unleaded
fuel.
This fuel may contain up to 10% ethanol by volume. Your vehicle is suitable for use with E10 fuel. Never refuel with one of the following fuels: R Diesel R Gasoline with more than 10% ethanol by
volume, e.g. E15, E85, E100
R Gasoline with more than 3% methanol by volume, e.g. M15, M30, M85, M100 R Gasoline with additives containing metal
If you have accidentally refueled with the wrong fuel: # Do not switch the ignition on. # Consult a qualified specialist workshop.
If the available fuel is not sufficiently low in sul fur, this can produce unpleasant odors. Only refuel using unleaded premium grade gaso line with at least 91 AKI/95 RON. As a temporary measure, if the recommended fuel is not available, you may also use unleaded regular gasoline which has at least the octane number specified in the information label in the fuel filler flap (see the vehicle Operator's Man ual). Never refuel using gasoline with an even lower RON.
* NOTE Premature wear through unleaded regular gasoline
Unleaded regular gasoline can cause the engine to wear more quickly and impair lon gevity and performance. If unleaded premium grade gasoline is unavailable and you have to refuel using unleaded regular gasoline: # Only fill the fuel tank to half full with
unleaded regular gasoline and fill up as soon as possible with unleaded pre mium grade gasoline.
# Do not drive at the maximum design speed.
# Avoid sudden acceleration and engine speeds over 3000 rpm.
