Flat tyre
253Using the TIREFIT kit
You can use the TIREFIT kit to seal small
punctures, particularly those in the tyre tread.
You can use TIREFIT in outdoor temperatures
down to -20 °C. G
Risk of accident
In the following situations, your safety is at
particular risk and tyre sealant is unable to
provide breakdown assistance:
R if there are cuts or punctures in the tyre
greater than 4 mm
R if the wheel rim is damaged
R if you have driven at very low tyre pres-
sures or on a flat tyre
Do not drive any further. Consult a qualified
specialist workshop which has the neces-
sary specialist knowledge and tools to carry
out the work required.
Mercedes-Benz recommends that you use
a Mercedes-Benz Service Centre for this
purpose. In particular, work relevant to
safety or on safety-related systems must be
carried out at a qualified specialist work-
shop. X
Do not remove any foreign objects which
have penetrated the tyre, e.g. screws or
nails.
X Remove TIREFIT, the accompanying "max.
80 km/h" sticker and the electric air pump
from the stowage compartment
(Y page 200). 1

your skin, eyes or clothing. R

eyes or skin, immediately rinse thor-
oughly with clean water.
R Change out of clothing which has come
into contact with TIREFIT immediately.
R If an allergic reaction occurs, consult a
doctor immediately.

R If TIREFIT is swallowed, immediately
rinse your mouth out thoroughly with
water and drink plenty of water.
R Do not induce vomiting. Consult a doctor
immediately.
R Do not inhale TIREFIT fumes.
i If TIREFIT leaks out, allow it to dry. It can
then be removed like a layer of film.

cleaned as soon as possible with perchloro-
ethylene. G
