remove the Start/Stop button from the
ignition lock.
X Get out of the vehicle.
X Close the driver’s door.
X Place the warning triangle (Y page 208) at
a suitable distance. Observe legal require-
ments.
i Only operate the electric air pump using
the socket in the footwell of the second row
of seats (Y page 163), even if the ignition
is turned off.
An emergency cut-off ensures that the on-
board voltage does not drop too low. If the
on-board voltage is too low, power to the
sockets is automatically cut-off. This
ensures that there is sufficient power to
start the engine. Using the TIREFIT kit
You can use the TIREFIT kit to seal small
punctures, particularly those in the tyre tread.
You can use TIREFIT at outside temperatures
down to -20 †. G
Risk of accident
In the following cases your safety is especially
endangered, as tyre sealant is insufficient if:
R there are cuts or punctures in the tyre
greater than 4 mm.
R the wheel rim is damaged.
R you have driven at very low tyre pressures
or on a flat tyre.
Do not drive any further. Consult a qualified
specialist workshop which has the necessary
specialist knowledge and tools to carry out
the work required.
Mercedes-Benz recommends that you use a
Mercedes-Benz Service Centre for this pur-
pose. In particular, work relevant to safety or
on safety-related systems must be carried out
at a qualified specialist workshop. X
Do not remove any foreign objects which
have penetrated the tyre, e.g. screws or
nails.
X Remove the TIREFIT kit, the accompanying
"max. 80 km/h" sticker and the electric air
pump from the stowage well underneath
the luggage compartment floor
(Y page 209). X
Affix part :of the sticker within the driv-
er's field of vision.
X Affix part ;of the sticker near the valve
on the wheel with the defective tyre. G
Risk of injury
TIREFIT must not come into contact with your
skin, eyes or clothing.
R If TIREFIT comes into contact with your
eyes or skin, immediately rinse thoroughly
with clean water.
R Change out of clothing which has come into
contact with TIREFIT immediately.
R If an allergic reaction occurs, consult a doc-
tor immediately.
Keep TIREFIT away from children.
