Tire pressure of 180 kPa (1.8 bar/ 26 psi) is reached
•► Press the on/off switch on the tire inflation compressor to 0.
The tire inflation compressor is switched off.
•► Unscrew the filler hose from the valve of the faulty tire.
After use, excess TIREFIT may run out of the filler hose. This could cause stains.
Therefore, place the filler hose in the plastic bag which contained the TIREFIT kit.
•► Stow the tire sealant bottle and the tire inflation compressor.
•► Pull away immediately.
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.
•► Stop after driving for approximately ten minutes and check the tire pressure with the tire inflation compressor.
WARNING
If tire inflation pressure has fallen below
130 kPa (1.3 bar/26 psi) 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.
•► Correct the tire pressure if it is at least 130 kPa (1.3 bar/20 psi) (for the required values, see the Tire and Loading Information placard on the driver's side B-pillar or the tire pressure table inside the fuel filler flap).
•► To increase the tire pressure: switch on the tire inflation compressor.
•► To reduce the tire pressure: press pressure release button 9 next to pressure gauge 10.
•► Stow the tire sealant bottle and the tire inflation compressor.
•► Drive to the nearest workshop and have the tire changed there.
•► Have the tire sealant bottle replaced as soon as possible at a qualified specialist workshop, e.g. at an authorized Mercedes- Benz Center.
Environmental note
Have the used tire sealant bottle disposed of
professionally, e.g. at an authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center.
•► Have the tire sealant bottle replaced every four years at a qualified specialist workshop, e.g. an authorized Mercedes- Benz Center.
