How to Change the Tires on a 2002 C240 Mercedes

1. Drive your car to a level surface and set the parking brake. Turn off the engine.
2. Open the trunk. Lift up the trunk floor. Remove the vehicle tool kit.
3. Loosen the lug nuts with the wheel wrench in the vehicle tool kit. However, do not remove the nuts yet.
4. Position the jack under the car. If changing the front tires, place the jack directly under the take-up brackets behind the front wheel wells. For rear tires, the take-up brackets are in front of the rear wheel well. The jack head should fit directly into the take-up brackets. Check your owner's manual for a diagram.
5. Raise the car with the jack by turning the handle.
6. Unscrew the lug nuts and take them off the wheel.
7. Pull off the old tire.
8. Install the spare tire. Line up the holes in the wheel with the lugs on the hub.
9. Screw on the lug nuts by hand.
10. Lower the car to the ground by screwing the jack handle in the opposite direction of the way you turned it to raise the C240.
11. Tighten the lug nuts with the wheel wrench.
12. Repeat steps 5 through 13 to change any other tires that need changing.
