1. Open the lid of the tyre repair kit.
2. Peel off the label I showing the maximum permissible speed of
80 km/h (50 mph) from the casing and
attach it to the instrument panel in the
driver ’s field of view. Make sure the
label does not obscure anything
important.
3. Take the hose C and the power plug with cable G out of the kit.
4. Unscrew the orange cap D and the bottle lid J.
5. Screw the sealant bottle K clockwise into the bottle holder E fully tight.
6. Remove the valve cap from the damaged tyre.
7. Detach the protective cap A from the hose C and screw the hose C firmly
onto the valve of the damaged tyre.
8. Make sure that the compressor switch
H is in position 0.
9. Insert the power plug G into the cigar lighter socket or auxiliary power socket.
See Cigar Lighter (page 122). See
Auxiliary Power Points (page 123).
10. Start the engine.
11. Move the compressor switch H to position 1.
12. Inflate the tyre for no longer than seven minutes to an inflation pressure
of minimum 1.8 bar (26 psi) and a
maximum of 3.5 bar (51 psi). Move
the compressor switch H to position
0 and check the current tyre pressure
with pressure gauge F. 13. Remove the power plug G from the
cigar lighter socket or auxiliary power
socket.
14. Quickly unscrew the hose C from the
tyre valve and replace the protective
cap A. Fasten the valve cap again.
15. Leave the sealant bottle K in the bottle holder E.
16. Make sure the kit, the bottle lid and the orange cap are stored safely, but
still easily accessible in the vehicle.
The kit will be required again when
you check the tyre pressure.
17. Immediately drive approximately three kilometres (two miles) so that
the sealant can seal the damaged
area.
Note: When pumping in the sealant through
the tyre valve, the pressure may rise up to
6 bar (87 psi) but will drop again after about
30 seconds. WARNING
If you experience heavy vibrations,
unsteady steering behaviour or
noises while driving, reduce your
speed and drive with caution to a place
where it is safe for you to stop the vehicle.
Recheck the tyre and its pressure. If the
tyre pressure is less than 1.3 bar (19 psi) or
if there are any cracks, bumps or similar
damage visible, do not continue driving
with this tyre. Checking the tyre pressure
1. Stop the vehicle after driving
approximately three kilometres
(two miles). Check, and where
necessary, adjust the pressure of the
damaged tyre.
2. Attach the kit and read the tyre pressure from the pressure gauge F.

If the pressure of the sealant-filled tyre
is 1.3 bar (19 psi) or more, adjust it to
the specified pressure. See Technical
Specifications (page 209).
4. Follow the inflation procedure once again to top up the tyre.
5. Check the tyre pressure again from the
pressure gauge F. If the tyre pressure
is too high, deflate the tyre to the
specified pressure using the pressure
relief valve B.
6. Once you have inflated the tyre to its correct tyre pressure, move the
compressor switch H to position 0,
remove the power plug G from the
socket, unscrew the hose C, fasten the
valve cap and replace the protective
cap A.
7. Leave the sealant bottle K in the bottle
holder E and store the kit away safely
in its original location.
8. Drive to the nearest tyre specialist to get the damaged tyre replaced. Before
the tyre is removed from the rim, inform
your tyre dealer that the tyre contains
sealant. Renew the kit as soon as
possible after it has been used once.
Note: Remember that emergency roadside
tyre repair kits only provide temporary
mobility. Regulations concerning tyre repair
after usage of tyre repair kit may differ from
country to country. You should consult a
tyre specialist for advice. WARNING
Before driving, make sure the tyre is
adjusted to the recommended
inflation pressure. See Technical
Specifications (page 209). Monitor the
tyre pressure until the sealed tyre is
replaced. Empty sealant bottles can be disposed of
together with normal household waste.
Return remains of sealant to your dealer
or dispose of it in compliance with local
waste disposal regulations.
TYRE CARE
To make sure the front and rear tyres of
your vehicle wear evenly and last longer,
we recommend that you swap the tyres
from front to rear and vice versa at regular
intervals of between 5000 and 10000
kilometres (3000 and 6000 miles).
CAUTION
Do not scrub the sidewalls of the tyres
when you are parking.
If you have to mount a kerb, do so slowly
and approach it with the wheels at
right-angles to the kerb.
Examine the tyres regularly for cuts, foreign
objects and uneven wear of the tread.
Uneven wear could mean that the wheel
alignment is outside specification.
Check the tyre pressures (including the
spare) when cold, every two weeks.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine USING WINTER TYRES
CAUTION
Make sure that you use the correct
wheel nuts for the type of wheel the
winter tyres are fitted to.
If winter tyres are used, make sure that the
tyre pressures are correct. See Technical
Specifications (page 209).
USING SNOW CHAINS
WARNINGS
Do not exceed 50 km/h (30 mph).
Do not use snow chains on snow-free
roads.
Only fit snow chains to specified
tyres. See Technical
Specifications (page 209).
CAUTION
If your vehicle is fitted with wheel
trims, remove them before fitting
snow chains.
Note:
The ABS will continue to operate
normally.
Only use snow chains of 10 millimetre or
smaller.
Only use snow chains on the front wheels.
Vehicles with stability control
(ESP)
Vehicles with stability control (ESP) may
exhibit some unusual driving
characteristics which can be reduced by
switching traction control off. See Using
Stability Control (page 145). TYRE PRESSURE
MONITORING SYSTEM WARNINGS
The system does not relieve you of
your responsibility to regularly check
the tyre pressures.
The system will only provide a low
tyre pressure warning. It will not
inflate the tyres.
Do not drive on significantly
under-inflated tyres. This may cause
the tyres to overheat and fail.
Under-inflation reduces fuel efficiency, tyre
tread life and may also affect your ability
to drive the vehicle safely. CAUTIONS
Do not bend or damage the valves
when you are inflating the tyres.
Have tyres installed by properly
trained technicians.
The Deflation Detection System will alert
you if there is a change of air pressure in
any tyre. It does this by using the ABS
sensors to detect the rolling circumference
of the wheels. When the circumference
changes, this indicates low pressure in a
tyre, a warning message is displayed in the
information display and the message
indicator will illuminate. See Information
Messages (page 90).
If a low pressure warning message is
displayed in the information display, check
the tyre pressures as soon as possible and
inflate them to the recommended
pressure. See Technical Specifications
(page 209).
If this happens frequently, have the cause
determined and rectified as soon as
possible.
208
Wheels and Tyres

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Apart from a too low tyre pressure or a
damaged tyre, the following situations can
affect the rolling circumference:
•
Vehicle load is uneven.
• When using a trailer or travelling up and
down an incline.
• Using snow chains.
• Driving on soft surfaces such as snow
or mud.
Note: The system will still function
correctly, but there may be an increased
detection time. System reset
Note:
Do not reset the system when the
vehicle is moving.
Note: You should reset the system
following any adjustment to the tyre
pressures or any changing of tyres.
Note: Turn the ignition on.
1. Using the information display control, navigate to Settings > Driver assist
> Deflation detection
2. Press and hold the OK button until confirmation appears.
