WARNING

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.

X

Stop after driving for approximately ten

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).

X

Correct the tire pressure if it is still at least

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.

X

To increase the tire pressure: switch on

the tire inflation compressor.

X

To reduce the tire pressure: depress

pressure release button E next to pres-

sure gauge F.

X

When the tire pressure is correct, unscrew

the filler hose from the valve of the sealed

tire.

X

Screw the valve cap onto the tire valve of

the sealed tire.

X

Pull the tire sealant bottle out of the tire

inflation compressor.
The filler hose remains attached to the tire

sealant bottle.

X

Stow the tire sealant bottle and the tire

inflation compressor.

X

Drive to the nearest qualified specialist

workshop and have the tire changed there.

X

Have the tire sealant bottle replaced as

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.

X

Have the tire sealant bottle replaced every

four years at a qualified specialist work-

shop.
