Practical hints
Flat tire
X
Drive vehicle back or forth very slowly
approximately 30 ft (10 m).
This serves to better distribute the TIREFIT
sealant material inside the tire.
X
Inflate the tire again.
G Warning!
If a tire inflation pressure of 26 psi (1.8 bar)
is not attained, the tire is too severely
damaged for TIREFIT to provide a reliable
tire repair.
In this case, TIREFIT cannot properly seal
the tire.
Do not drive the vehicle.
Contact the nearest Mercedes-Benz Center
or call Roadside Assistance.
After attaining a tire inflation pressure of
at least 26 psi (1.8 bar):
X
Press 0 on electric air pump switch 3.
The electric air pump is switched off.
X
Detach the TIREFIT kit from the tire valve.
G Warning!
The air hose may still be hot. Exercise
proper caution to avoid burning yourself
when detaching the electric air pump.

! Remaining TIREFIT sealant could escape
from the filler hose after it has been
detached from the tire valve. TIREFIT
sealant may cause stains.
Therefore, cover the filler hose, e.g. by
inserting it into the plastic bag the TIREFIT
kit was packed in.
X
Drive off immediately.
G Warning!
Do not exceed a vehicle speed of 50 mph
(80 km/h). A TIREFIT repair is not designed
to operate at higher speeds.
The sticker must be attached on the
instrument cluster where it will be easily
seen by the driver.
Vehicle handling characteristics of a
TIREFIT repaired tire may change. Adapt
your driving accordingly.
X
After driving the vehicle for an initial
10 minutes, check the tire inflation
pressure using pressure gauge.
G Warning!
If tire inflation pressure has fallen below
20 psi (1.3 bar) do not continue to drive the
vehicle.
Park your vehicle safely away from the
roadway and contact the nearest
authorized Mercedes-Benz Center or
Roadside Assistance.
Have the damaged tire replaced.
If the tire inflation pressure is at least 20 psi
(1.3 bar), inflate or deflate the tire to the
correct tire inflation pressure (see Tire and
