Unscrew the valve cap from tire
valve7.
Screw filler hosea onto tire valve7.
Insert electrical plug4 into vehicle
cigarette lighter socket (
page 282)
or the power outlet in the rear passen-
ger compartment (
page 283).
Turn the SmartKey in the starter switch
to position1 (
page 36).
Vehicles with KEYLESS-GO*:
Press the KEYLESS-GO* start/stop
button (
page 37) on the gear se-
lector lever once. Do not depress
brake pedal.
PressI on electric air pump switch8.
The electric air pump should now
switch on and inflate the tire.After 5 minutes, the pressure gauge must
display at least 26 psi (1.8 bar). The air
hose can become hot during inflation.
Please exercise appropriate caution.
If this tire inflation pressure is not
attained:
Turn off the electric air pump, de-
tach the filler hose from the tire
valve, and drive vehicle back and
forth very slowly approximately
30 ft (10 m).
This serves to better distribute the
TIREFIT sealant material inside the
tire.
Unscrew the air pump’s air hose5
from flange6 of the TIREFIT
container.
Screw air hose5onto tire
valve7.
Inflate the tire again.Warning!G
Observe safety instructions on air pump
label.
!Do not operate the electric air pump longer
than 6 minutes without interruption. Otherwise it
may overheat.

Flat tire
MOExtended system*
The MOExtended system allows you to
continue driving your vehicle even if there
is a total loss of pressure in one or more
tires.
You may only use the MOExtended system
in conjunction with the Run Flat Indicator*.
!The maximum distance in emergency mode
depends on the vehicle’s load. It is 30 miles
(50 km) if the vehicle is partially loaded and
18 miles (30 km) if the vehicle is fully loaded.
The point at which the maximum driving distance
begins in emergency mode is when the warning
message appears in the multifunction display
indicating that there is a loss of tire inflation
pressure.
Do not exceed the maximum speed of 50 mph
(80 km/h).
Warning!G
In emergency mode, your vehicle’s driving
characteristics are diminished in such situa-
tions as:

driving around curves

while braking

while accelerating rapidly
Therefore, your driving style must be adapt-
ed accordingly. Avoid abrupt steering and
driving maneuvers, as well as driving over
obstacles (road curbs, potholes, or off-road
areas). This is especially important if the ve-
hicle is heavily loaded.
The emergency driving distance that can be
achieved greatly depends on the demands
placed on the vehicle. Depending on speed,
load, driving maneuvers, road conditions,
outside temperature, etc., the distance can
be significantly shorter or, if the vehicle is
driven cautiously, somewhat longer.
Do not continue driving in emergency mode
if

you notice knocking sounds

the vehicle starts to shake

smoke develops and you smell rubber

ESP® is intervening continuously

you notice tears on the tire sidewalls
After driving in emergency mode, you must
have the rims inspected by an authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center to check if they are
suitable for further use. The failed tire must
be replaced in any case.
iWhen replacing individual or all tires on the
vehicle, make sure only matching tires marked
with “MOExtended” are mounted in the size
specified for your vehicle (
page 466).
