The trailer load/noseweight affects the gross

weight of the vehicle. If a trailer is attached,

the trailer load/noseweight is included in the

load along with occupants and luggage. The

trailer load/noseweight is usually

approximately 10% of the gross weight of the

trailer and its cargo.

Your Mercedes-Benz is designed for

transporting persons and their luggage.

Mercedes-Benz does not recommend towing

a trailer with your vehicle.

Uniform Tire Quality Grading

Standards

Overview of tire quality standards

The Uniform Tire Quality Grading Standards

are U.S. government specifications. Their

purpose is to provide drivers with uniform

reliable information on tire performance data.

Tire manufacturers have to grade tires using

three performance factors: tread wear :,

tire traction ; and heat resistance =. All

tires sold in North America are provided with

the corresponding quality class mark on the

sidewall of the tire, even though these

regulations do not apply to Canada.

The actual values for tires are specific to

each vehicle and may deviate from the

values in the illustration.

Where applicable, the tire grading

information can be found on the tire sidewall

between the tread shoulder and maximum

tire width.

For example:

200 AA A

All passenger car tires must conform to the

statutory safety requirements in addition to
