Mercedes-Benz GLC : Wheels and tires / Notes on snow chains
WARNING Risk of accident due to incorrect
mounting of snow chains
If you have mounted 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 tires.
Never mount snow chains
on the front
wheels.
Only mount snow chains on
the rear
wheels in pairs.
NOTE Damage to components of the
vehicle body or chassis due to mounted
snow chains
If you mount snow chains to the front wheels
of 4MATIC vehicles, you may damage components
of the vehicle body or chassis.
Only mount 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/tire combinations. You can obtain
information about this from an authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center.
- 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 installed, the maximum permissible speed is 30 mph
(50 km/h).
- Vehicles with Active Parking Assist: Do not use Active Parking
Assist when snow chains are installed.
- Vehicles with level control: If snow chains
are installed, only drive at raised vehicle level.
You can deactivate ESP® to pull away. This allows the wheels to
spin, achieving an increased driving force.

tires
