4.Slide the sealant container upright into the
holder on the compressor housing, ensur‐
ing that it engages audibly.5.Screw the connection hose onto the tire
valve of the defective wheel.6.With the compressor switched off, insert
the plug into a power socket inside the ve‐
hicle.7.With the ignition turned on or the engine
running, reel on the compressor.
Let the compressor run for approx. 3 to 8 mi‐
nutes to fill the tire with sealant and achieve a
tire inflation pressure of approx. 2.5 bar.
While the tire is being filled with sealant, the
tire inflation pressure may sporadically reach
approx. 5 bar. Do not reel off the compressor at
this point.
Enclosed areas
Do not let the engine run in enclosed
areas, since breathing in exhaust fumes may
lead to loss of consciousness and death. The
exhaust gases contain carbon monoxide, an
odorless and colorless but highly toxic gas. ◀
Switch off the compressor after 10 mi‐
nutes
Do not allow the compressor to run longer than
10 minutes; otherwise, the device will overheat
and may be damaged. ◀
If a tire inflation pressure of 2 bar is not
reached:
1.Switch off the compressor.2.Unscrew the filling hose from the wheel.3.Drive forward and back to distribute the
sealant in the tire.4.Inflate the tire again using the compressor.
If a tire inflation pressure of 2 bar cannot be
reached, contact your service center.Seite 183Wheels and tiresMOBILITY183

Stowing the Mobility System1.Remove the connection hose of the sealant
container from the wheel.2.Remove the connection hose from the seal‐
ant container.3.Wrap the empty sealant container and con‐
nection hose in suitable material to avoid
dirtying the cargo area.4.Stow the Mobility System back in the vehi‐
cle.
Distributing the sealant
Immediately drive approx. 5 mls/10 km/h to
ensure that the sealant is evenly distributed in the tire.
Do not exceed a speed of 50 mph/80 km/h.
If possible, do not drive at speeds less than
12 mph/20 km/h.
To correct the tire inflation pressure
1.Stop at a suitable location.2.Screw the connection hose onto the tire
valve stem.3.Attach the connection hose directly to the
compressor.4.Insert the connector into a power socket in‐
side the vehicle.5.Correct the tire inflation pressure to 2.5 bar.▷Increase pressure: with the ignition
turned on or the engine running, reel
on the compressor.▷To reduce the pressure: press the but‐
ton on the compressor.
Continuing the trip
Do not exceed the maximum permissible speed
of 50 mph/80 km/h.
Reinitialize the Flat Tire Monitor, refer to
page 100.
Reinitialize the Tire Pressure Monitor, refer to
page 96.
Replace the defective tire and the sealant con‐
tainer of the Mobility System as soon as possi‐
ble.

The defective wheel cannot be stored in the
compact wheel bracket because of its size.3.Check tire inflation pressure at the next op‐
portunity and correct as needed.4.Reinitialize the Flat Tire Monitor, refer to
page 100.
Reinitialize the Tire Pressure Monitor, refer
to page 97.5.Replace the damaged tires as soon as pos‐
sible.
Driving with the compact wheel
Watch the speed when driving with the
emergency wheel
Drive conservatively and do not exceed a speed
of 50 mph/80 km/h; otherwise, changed driving
characteristics such as reduced lane stability
while braking, extended braking distance and
changed self-steering properties in the limit
area. ◀
Mount one emergency wheel only
Only a single emergency wheel may be
mounted. Reinstall wheels and tires of the orig‐
inal size as quickly as possible; otherwise, there
is a safety risk. ◀
Vehicle battery Maintenance
The battery is maintenance-free, i.e., the elec‐
trolyte will last for the life of the battery.
Your service center will be glad to advise you
on questions regarding the battery.
Battery replacement Use approved vehicle batteries only
Only use vehicle batteries that have been
approved for your vehicle by the manufacturer;
otherwise, the vehicle could be damaged and
systems or functions may not be fully availa‐
ble. ◀
After a battery replacement, have the battery
registered on the vehicle by your service center
to ensure that all comfort features are fully
available and that any Check Control messages
are no longer displayed.
Charging the battery
Note Do not connect charging devices to the
12 volt socket in the vehicle
Do not connect battery chargers to the factory-
installed 12 volt sockets in the vehicle as this
may damage the vehicle battery due to an in‐
creased power consumption. ◀
General information
Make sure that the battery is always sufficiently
charged to guarantee that the battery remains
usable for its full service life.
The battery may need to be charged in the fol‐
lowing cases:▷When making frequent short-distance
drives.▷If the vehicle is not used for prolonged peri‐
ods, longer than a month.▷Steptronic transmission: when parked for
long periods of time in selector lever posi‐
tion D, R or N.
Starting aid terminals
In the vehicle, only charge the battery via the
starting aid terminals, refer to page 208, in the
engine compartment with the engine off.
Power failure
After a temporary power loss, some equipment
needs to be reset.
Individual settings need to be reprogrammed:
