If tire pressure of 200 kPa (2.0 bar/29 psi)
has been achieved after a maximum period of
ten minutes:
Switch off the tire inflation compressor.
X
Unscrew the filler hose from the valve of
X
the faulty tire.
Stow the tire sealant bottle and the tire
X
inflation compressor.
Pull away immediately.
X
Stop after driving for approximately ten
X
minutes and check the tire pressure with
the tire inflation compressor.
The tire pressure must now be at least
130 kPa (1.3 bar/19 psi).
G WARNING
If the required tire pressure is not reached
after driving for a short period, the tire is too
badly damaged. The tire sealant cannot repair
the tire in this instance. Damaged tires and a
tire pressure that is too low can significantly
impair the vehicle's braking and driving char-
acteristics. There is a risk of accident.
Do not continue driving. Contact a qualified
specialist workshop.
i In cases such as the one mentioned
above, contact an authorized Mercedes-
Benz Center. Or call 1-800-FOR-MERCedes
(in the USA) or 1-800-387-0100 (in Can-
ada).
Correct the tire pressure if it is still at least
X
130 kPa (1.3 bar/19 psi). See the Tire and
Loading Information placard on the driver's
side B-pillar or the tire pressure table in the
fuel filler flap for values.
To increase the tire pressure: switch on
X
the tire inflation compressor.
To reduce the tire pressure: depress
X
pressure release button : next to pres-
sure gauge ;.
When the tire pressure is correct, unscrew
X
the filler hose from the valve of the sealed
tire.
Screw the valve cap onto the tire valve of
X
the sealed tire.
To remove the tire sealant bottle from the
X
tire inflation compressor, press together
the locking tabs on the yellow cap.
Pull the tire sealant bottle out of the tire
X
inflation compressor.
The filler hose remains attached to the tire
sealant bottle.
Drive to the nearest qualified specialist
X
workshop and have the tire changed there.
Have the tire sealant bottle and the filler
X
hose replaced as soon as possible at a
qualified specialist workshop.
Have the tire sealant bottle replaced every
X
four years at a qualified specialist work-
