WARNING
G
A tire temporarily sealed with tire sealant
impairs the driving characteristics and is not
suitable for higher speeds. There is a risk of
accident.
You should therefore adapt your driving style
accordingly and drive carefully. Do not exceed
the specified maximum speed with a tire that
has been repaired using tire sealant.
The maximum speed for a tire sealed with tire
sealant is 50 mph (80 km/h). The upper part
of the TIREFIT sticker must be affixed to the
instrument cluster in the driver's field of
vision.
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 E next to pres-
sure gauge F.
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.
Pull the tire sealant bottle out of the tire
X
inflation compressor.
The filler hose remains attached to the tire
sealant bottle.
Stow the tire sealant bottle and the tire
X
inflation compressor.
Drive to the nearest qualified specialist
X
workshop and have the tire changed there.
Have the tire sealant bottle replaced as
X
soon as possible at a qualified specialist
workshop.
H Environmental note
Have the used tire sealant bottle disposed of
professionally, e.g. at a qualified specialist
workshop.
Have the tire sealant bottle replaced every
X
four years at a qualified specialist work-
shop.
