Important notes on using the jack:

  • Use only the vehicle-specific jack that has been tested and approved by Mercedes-Benz to raise the vehicle.
  • The jack is only designed for raising and holding the vehicle for a short time while a wheel is being changed and not for maintenance work under the vehicle.
  • The jack must be placed on a firm, flat and non-slip surface. If necessary, use a large, flat, load-bearing, non-slip underlay.
  • The foot of the jack must be positioned vertically under the jack support point.

  • Never place your hands or feet under the vehicle.
  • Never lie under the vehicle.
  • Do not start the engine and do not release the electric parking brake.

WARNING Risk of injury from incorrect positioning of the jack
If you do not position the jack correctly at the appropriate jacking point of the vehicle, the jack could tip with the vehicle raised.
  • Only position the jack at the appropriate jacking point of the vehicle. The base of the jack must be positioned vertically under the jacking point of the vehicle.

 

NOTE Vehicle damage from the jack
If you do not position the jack correctly at the appropriate jack support point of the vehicle, the jack could tip over with the vehicle raised.

Changing a wheel

  • Turn crank 3 clockwise until jack 2 sits completely on jack support point 1 and the base of the jack lies evenly on the ground.
  • Turn crank 3 until the tire is raised a maximum of 1.2 in (3 cm) from the ground.
