pressure: Press deflate button 0019.
Recheck the tire inflation pressure
with the electric air pump’s pressure
gauge 001A.

! The manufacturer is unable to
guarantee that all tire punctures can be
repaired with the tire repair kit, in
particular cuts or perforations larger
than approximately 0.16 in (4 mm) or away from the tire’s tread. The manufacturer
is not liable for damage sustained
through improper use of the tire repair
kit. G
WARNING
Follow recommended tire inflation
pressures.
Do not underinflate tires. Underinflated
tires wear excessively and/or unevenly,
adversely affect handling and energy
consumption of the vehicle, and are more
likely to fail from being overheated.
Do not overinflate tires. Overinflated
tires can adversely affect handling and
ride comfort, wear unevenly, increase
stopping distance, and result in sudden
deflation (blowout) because they are more
likely to become punctured or damaged by
road debris, potholes etc.
Do not overload the tires by exceeding the
specified load limit as indicated on the
Tire and Loading Information placard on
the driver’s door B‑pillar. Overloadin gthe
tires can overheat them, possibly causing
a blowout. Overloading the tires can also
result in handling or steering problems, or
brake failure.
X Drive to the nearest authorized electric
drive smart center, to have the damaged
tire replaced.
X Contact an authorized electric drive
smart center as soon as possible to
obtain a new filler hose and a new tire
sealant container.
X Bring used tire sealant materials to an
authorized electric drive smart center
for proper disposal.

Rims and tires
Notes
! Only use tires which have been tested
and approved by smart. Tires approved by
smart are developed to provide best
possible performance in conjunction
with the driving safety systems on your
vehicle such as the ABS or the ESP ®
.
Using tires other than those approved by
smart may result in damage that is not
covered by the smart Limited Warranty.
! Using tires other than those approved
by smart can have detrimental effects,
such as
R poor handling characteristics
R increased noise
R increased energy consumption
Moreover, tires and rims not approved by
smart may, under load, exhibit
dimensional variations and different
tire deformation characteristics that
could cause them to come into contact
with the vehicle body or axle parts.
Damage to the tires or the vehicle may be
the result.
i Further information on tires and rims
is available at any authorized electric
drive smart center. A placard with the
recommended tire inflation pressure is
located on the driver’s door B‑pillar.
The tire inflation pressure should be
checked regularly and should only be
adjusted on cold tires. Follow tire
manufacturer’s maintenance
recommendation included with vehicle. Mobility
Your vehicle is equipped with a tire repair
kit (Y page 180). In case of a flat tire, it
enables you to drive to the nearest
