Important notes on topping up
DEFisa water-soluble fluid for the exhaust
gas aftertreatment of diesel engines. Itis:
Rnot pois onous
Rcolorless and odorless
Rnot flammable
When you open the DEF container, small
amounts of ammonia vapor may be released. Ammon iavapors have a pungent odor and are
particularly irr itating to the skin, to mucous
membranes and to the eyes. You may expe-
rience a burning sensation in your eyes, nose and throat. Coughing and watering of the
eyes are possible.
Do not inhale ammonia vapors. Fill the DEF
tank only in well- ventilated areas.
DEF must not come into contact with your
skin, eyes or clothing and must not beswal-
lowed. Keep DEF away from children.
If you or other persons come into contact with
DEF, observe the fol lowing:
RRinse DEF from your skin immediatelywith
soap and water.
RIf DEF comes into contact with your eyes,
immediately rinse them thoroughly with
clean water. Seek medical assistance with-
out delay.
RIf DEF has been swallowed,rinse your
mouth out immediately. Drink plenty of
water. Seek medical assistance without
delay.
RChange out of clothing contaminated with
DEF immediately.
!Only use DEF in accordance with
IS O 22241. Do not mix any additives with
DEF, and donot dilute DEF with water. This
may destroy th e B
lueTEC exhaust gas after-
treatment system.
!Rins e surfaces that have come into con-
tact with DEF immediately with water or
remove DEF using a damp cloth and co ld
water. Ifthe DEF has already crystallized,
use a sponge and co ldwater to clean it. DEF residues crystallize after time and contam-
inate the affected surfaces.
!DEF
isnot a fuel additive and must not be
added to the fuel tank. IfDEF isadded to
the fuel tank, th iscan lead to engine dam-
age.
!Only screw on the DEF ref illbottle hand-
tight. Itcould otherwise bedamaged.
The DEF filler neck isunder the trunk floor.
XSwi tch the ignit ion off.
XOpen the trunk.
XLift up the trunk floor (Ypage 248).
XTurn DEF cap :counter-clock wiseand
remove it.
XTurn DEF filler cap ;counter-clockwise

instrument cluster in the driver's field of
vision.
!Residue from the tire sealant may come
out of the filler hose after use. This could
cause stains.
Therefore, place the filler hose in the plastic
bag which contained the TIREFIT kit.
HEnvironmental note
Have the used tire sealant bottle disposed of
professionally, e.g. at a qualified specialist
workshop.
If a tire pressure of 180 kPa (1.8 bar/26 psi)
has been attained after five minutes:
XSwitch off the tire inflation compressor.
XUnscrew the filler hose from the valve of
the faulty tire.
XStow the tire sealant bottle and the tire
inflation compressor.
XPull away immediately.
XStop after driving for approximately ten
minutes and check the tire pressure with
the tire inflation compressor.
The tire pressure must now be at least
130 kPa (1.3 bar/19 psi).
GWARNING
If the required tire pressure is not reached
after driving for a short period, the tire is too
badly damaged. The tire sealant cannot repair
the tire in this instance. Damaged tires and a
tire pressure that is too low can significantly
impair the vehicle's braking and driving char-
acteristics. There is a risk of accident.
Do not continue driving. Contact a qualified
specialist workshop.
iIn cases such as the one mentioned
above, contact an authorized Mercedes-
Benz Center. Or call 1-800-FOR-MERCedes
(in the USA) or 1-800-387-0100 (in Can-
ada).
XCorrect the tire pressure if it is still at least
130 kPa (1.3 bar/19 psi). See the Tire and
Loading Information placard on the driver's side B-pillar or the tire pressure table in the
fuel filler flap for values.
XTo increase the tire pressure: switch on
the tire inflation compressor.
XTo reduce the tire pressure: depress
pressure release button Enext to pres-
sure gauge F.
XWhen the tire pressure is correct, unscrew
the filler hose from the valve of the sealed
tire.
XScrew the valve cap onto the tire valve of
the sealed tire.
XPull the tire sealant bottle out of the tire
inflation compressor.
The filler hose remains attached to the tire
sealant bottle.
XDrive to the nearest qualified specialist
workshop and have the tire changed there.
XHave the tire sealant bottle replaced as
soon as possible at a qualified specialist
workshop.
XHave the tire sealant bottle replaced every
four years at a qualified specialist work-
shop.

Important safety notes
Special tools and expert knowledge are
required when working on the battery, e.g.
removal and installation. You should there-
fore have all work involving the battery car-
ried out at a qualified specialist workshop.

Maximum tire pressures
:Example: maximum permissible tire pres-
sure
Never exceed the maximum permissible tire
inflation pressure. Always observe the rec-
ommended tire pressure for your vehicle
when adjusting the tire pressure
(
Ypage 291).
iThe actual values for tires are vehicle-
specific and may deviate from the values in
the illustration.
Checking the tire pressures
Important safety notes
Observe the notes on tire pressure
(
Ypage 291).
Information on air pressure for the tires on
your vehicle can be found:
Ron the vehicle's Tire and Loading Informa-
tion placard on the B-pillar
Ron the tire pressure label on the fuel filler
flap
Rin the "Tire pressure" section
Checking tire pressures manually
To determine and set the correct tire pres-
sure, proceed as follows:
XRemove the valve cap of the tire that is to
be checked.
XPress the tire pressure gauge securely onto
the valve.
XRead the tire pressure and compare it to
the recommended value on the Tire and
Loading Information placard or the tire
pressure table (
Ypage 291).
XIf the tire pressure is too low, increase the
tire pressure to the recommended value.
XIf the tire pressure is too high, release air.
To do so, press down the metal pin in the
valve, using the tip of a pen for example.
Then check the tire pressure again using
the tire pressure checker.
XScrew the valve cap onto the valve.
XRepeat these steps for the other tires.
Tire pressure monitor
General notes
If a tire pressure monitor is installed, the vehi-
cle's wheels have sensors that monitor the
tire pressures in all four tires. The tire pres-
sure monitor warns you if the pressure drops
in one or more of the tires. The tire pressure
monitor only functions if the corresponding
sensors are installed in all wheels.
Information on tire pressures is displayed in
the multifunction display. After a few minutes
of driving, the current tire pressure of each
tire is shown in the Service
menu of the mul-
tifunction display, see illustration (example).
