Practical hints

Flat tire

̈ Try to park the vehicle in such a way

that the tire puncture is close to the
ground. If the tire puncture cannot
be seen, park the vehicle in such a
way that the tire valve of the flat tire
is in horizontal alignment with the ax-
le.

̈ It is beneficial to the sealing process

if you remove the foreign body that
has pierced the tire, for example the
screw or nail.

̈ Remove the Premium tire sealant,

the accompanying "max. 50 mph
(80 km/h)" sticker and the electric
air pump from the storage compart-
ment in the right-hand doorway
(

୴ page 521).

̈ Affix the sticker within the driver’s

field of vision.

CAUTION

Only connect the electric air pump to
the 12 V socket (

୴ page 297) on the

center console (12 V, 25 A,
300 watts). You could otherwise
damage the vehicle electrical sys-
tem.

Warning

Comply with the manufacturer’s safety in-
structions as seen on the sticker on the elec-
tric air pump and the tire sealant bottle.

Warning

Tire sealant must not come into contact
with your skin, eyes or clothing.

If tire sealant comes into contact with
your eyes or skin, immediately rinse thor-
oughly with clean water.
