Practical hints
Flat tire
Warning! G
If a tire inflation pressure of 26 psi (1.8 bar)
is not attained, 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 26 psi (1.8 bar), press 0 on electric
air pump switch 8.
The electric air pump should now be
switched off.
Turn the SmartKey in the ignition to
position 0 ( page 40).
Detach the electric air pump.
The air hose may still be hot. Please exercise
appropriate caution.

Store the electrical plug and the air

pump back in the trunk.
Close the trunk lid.

The TIREFIT sealant will distribute itself
evenly inside the tire.
Warning! G

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 may
change. Adapt your driving accordingly.
After driving vehicle for an initial
10 minutes, check tire inflation pressure
using the pressure gauge on the
air pump.
Warning! G
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.
If tire inflation pressure is at least
20 psi (1.3 bar), inflate tire to correct pressure
(see placards on driver’s door B-pillar
or on fuel filler flap), and drive vehicle to
nearest tire repair facility to have tire repaired
or replaced.
