Mercedes-Benz GLC : Changing a wheel / Notes on rotating wheels
WARNING Risk of injury through different
wheel sizes
Rotating the front and rear wheels can
severely impair the driving characteristics.
The wheel brakes or suspension components
may also be damaged.
Rotate front and rear
wheels only if the
wheels and tires are of the same dimensions.
The wear patterns on the front and rear wheels
differ:
- Front wheels wear more on the tire shoulder
- Rear wheels wear more in the center of the
tire
Do not drive with tires that have too little tread
depth. This significantly reduces traction on wet
roads (hydroplaning).
On vehicles that have the same size front and
rear wheels, rotate the wheels according to the
intervals in the tire manufacturer's warranty book in your vehicle documents. If
this is not
available, rotate the tires every
3000 to 6000 miles (5000 to 10,000 km),
depending on the wear. Ensure that the direction
of rotation is maintained.
Observe the instructions and safety notes on
"Changing a wheel" when doing so.
NOTE Mercedes-AMG vehicles
Observe the notes in the
Supplement.
You could otherwise fail to recognize
dangers.
WARNING Risk of accident due to incorrect
dimensions of wheels and tires

components may be damaged...
When storing wheels, observe the following
notes:
After removing wheels, store them in a cool,
dry and preferably dark place.

Cornering light function
The cornering light improves the illumination of
the road over a wide angle in the turning direction,
enabling better visibility on tight curves, for
example. It can be activated only when the low
beam is switched on.
The function is active in the following cases:
At speeds below 25 mph (40 km/h) when
the turn signal light is switched on or the
steering wheel is turned
At speeds between 25 mph (40 km/h) and
43 mph (70 km/h) and when the steering
wheel is turned
Roundabout and intersection function: the
cornering light will be activated on both sides
based on an evaluation of the vehicle's current
GPS position...
