& WARNING Risk of accident due to the
specified tire pressure not being reached
If the specified tire pressure is not reached
after a brief drive, the tire is too badly dam‐
aged. The tire sealant cannot repair the tire
in this instance.
Damaged tires and tire pressure that is too
low can significantly impair the braking prop‐
erties and the handling characteristics.
Do not continue driving.
#
Consult a qualified specialist workshop.
#
In cases such as the one mentioned above, con‐
tact an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center. Or
call 1-800-FOR-MERCedes (in the USA) or
1-800-387-0100 (in Canada).
Correct the tire pressure if it is still at least
#
130 kPa (1.3 bar/19 psi). You will find the
values in the Tire and Loading Information
placard on the B-pillar on the driver's side or
in the tire pressure table in the fuel filler flap.
To increase the tire pressure: switch on
#
the tire inflation compressor.
To reduce the tire pressure: press pressure
#
release button 1 next to manometer 2.
When the tire pressure is correct, unscrew
#
the filling hose from the valve of the sealed
tire.
Screw the valve cap onto the valve of the
#
sealed tire.
Pull the tire sealant bottle out of the tire
#
inflation compressor.
The filling hose stays on the tire sealant bot‐
tle.
Drive to the nearest qualified specialist work‐
#
shop and have the tire, tire sealant bottle
and filling hose replaced there.
