The electric air pump is switched on and
inflates the tire.
i First, the sealing is pumped into the tire.
The pressure may briefly rise to up to 73 psi
(5 bar). This is normal and not an indication
of a malfunction. Do not switch off the
electric air pump.
XLet the electric air pump inflate the tire for
approximately 5 minutes.
The pressure gauge must display at least
26 psi (1.8 bar).GWarning!
The air hose can become hot during inflation.
Please exercise appropriate caution.
! Do not operate the electric air pump
longer than 8 minutes without interruption.
Otherwise it may overheat.
You may operate the air pump again after
it has cooled off.
If the tire inflation pressure of at least
26 psi (1.8 bar) is not attained:
XTurn off the electric air pump by pressing
0 on electric air pump switch =.XDetach filler hose D from tire valve E.XDrive vehicle back or forth very slowly
approximately 30 ft (10 m).
This serves to better distribute the TIREFIT
sealant material inside the tire.XInflate the tire again.GWarning!
If a tire inflation pressure of 26 psi (1.8 bar)
is not attained, the 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
at least 26 psi (1.8 bar):
XPress 0 on electric air pump switch =.
The electric air pump is switched off.XDetach the TIREFIT kit from the tire valve.GWarning!
The air hose may still be hot. Exercise proper
caution to avoid burning yourself when
detaching the electric air pump.
! Remaining TIREFIT sealant could escape
from the filler hose after it has been
detached from the tire valve. TIREFIT
sealant may cause stains.
Therefore, cover the filler hose, e.g. by
inserting it into the plastic bag the TIREFIT
kit was packed in.
XDrive off immediately.GWarning!
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.

AdBlue ®
(diesel engine only)
The BlueTEC exhaust gas aftertreatment
system requires a reducing agent (AdBlue ®
)
in order to function properly. Refilling with
AdBlue ®
is part of the regular maintenance
service work. A tankful of AdBlue ®
should
suffice until the next maintenance service
under normal driving conditions.
When the AdBlue ®
tank is low, the message
Check Additive See Operator’s
Manual appears in the multifunction display.
When the AdBlue ®
level drops to the
minimum level, the message Remaining
Starts: 20 appears in the multifunction
display.
i When the message Remaining Starts:
20 appears in the multifunction display, you
can start the engine 20 more times. If you
do not add AdBlue ®
, the engine cannot be
started beyond that point. Fill the
AdBlue ®
tank with approximately 1 gal
(3.79 l) AdBlue ®
(corresponds to
approximately 2 AdBlue ®
refill containers)
or have the AdBlue ®
tank filled by an
authorized Mercedes-Benz Center.
i For refilling outside the maintenance
service intervals, refill the AdBlue ®
tank
with approximately 1 gal (3.79 l) AdBlue ®
(corresponds to approximately 2 AdBlue ®
refill containers).
Always use the particular AdBlue ®
refill
containers for refilling outside the
maintenance service interval. Contact an
authorized Mercedes-Benz Center or call
Roadside Assistance if necessary
( Y page 216).
Additional information on BlueTEC exhaust
gas aftertreatment and AdBlue ®
is available
