Reduced Power SeeOperator's Manual
The engine is running in emergency mode. For example, the fuel
injection may be faulty.
XDrive on carefully.
XVisit a qualified specialist workshop immediately.
iIn some states, you must immediately visit a qualified spe-
cialist workshop as soon as the yellow Check Engine warning
lamp lights up. This depends on the locally applicable legal
requirements. If in doubt, check whether such legal regulations
apply in the state in which you are currently driving.

Ra torn poly-V-belt
Ra malfunction in the electronics
XPull over and stop the vehicle safely and switch off the engine,
paying attention to road and traffic conditions.
!Do not continue driving. The engine could otherwise overheat.
XSecure the vehicle against rolling away (Ypage 100).
XConsult a qualified specialist workshop.

tone also sounds.The engine oil pressure is too low. There is a risk of engine dam-
age.
XPull over and stop the vehicle safely as soon as possible, paying
attention to road and traffic conditions. Do not continue driv-
ing under any circumstances.

00AC
The red coolant tem-
perature warning lamp
comes on while the
engine is running. A
warning tone also
sounds.The coolant temperature has exceeded 230 ‡(110 †). The airflow to
the engine radiator may be blocked or the coolant level may be too
low.
GWARNING
The engine is not being cooled sufficiently and may be damaged.
Do not drive when your engine is overheated. This can cause some
fluids which may have leaked into the engine compartment to catch
fire.
Steam from an overheated engine can cause serious burns, which
can occur just by opening the engine compartment cover.
There is a risk of injury.
XPull over and stop the vehicle safely as soon as possible, paying attention to road and traffic conditions. Do not continue driv-
ing under any circumstances.
XSwitch off the engine.
XSecure the vehicle against rolling away (Ypage 100).
XLeave the vehicle and keep a safe distance from the vehicle until
the engine has cooled down.
XCheck the coolant level and top up the coolant. Observe the notes
as you do so (Ypage 210).
XIf you need to add coolant more often than usual, have the engine
coolant system checked.
XMake sure that the air supply to the engine radiator is not
blocked, e.g. by snow, slush or ice.
XDo not start the engine again until the coolant temperature is
below 230 ‡(110 †). Otherwise, the engine could be damaged.
Avoid subjecting the engine to heavy loads, e.g. driving in
mountainous terrain, and stop-and-go traffic.

XTurn the key to position1in the ignition
lock (Ypage 87).
XPress on/off switch 0084on tire inflation
compressor 0044toI.
The tire inflation compressor is switched
on. The tire is inflated.
iFirst, tire sealant is pumped into the
tire. The pressure can briefly rise to
approximately 600 kPa (6.0 bar/86 psi).
Do not switch off the tire inflation com-
pressor during this phase.
XLet the tire inflation compressor run for a
maximum of 15 minutes. The tire should then
have attained a pressure of at least 180 kPa
(1.8 bar/26 psi).
If a tire pressure of 180 kPa (1.8 bar/26 psi) is
achieved after a maximum of 15 minutes, see
"Tire pressure is achieved" (
Ypage 163).
If a tire pressure of 180 kPa (1.8 bar/26 psi)
has not been achieved after a maximum of
15 minutes, see "Tire pressure is not ach-
ieved" (
Ypage 163).
iIf tire sealant leaks out, allow it to dry. It
can then be removed like a layer of film.
If your clothes are soiled with tire sealant,
have them cleaned with perchloroethylene
at a dry cleaner as soon as possible.
Tire pressure not reached
If a tire pressure of 180 kPa (1.8 bar/26 psi)
has not been achieved after a maximum of
10 minutes:
XSwitch off the tire inflation compressor.
XUnscrew the filler hose from the valve of
the faulty tire.
XVery slowly drive forwards or reverse
approximately 30 ft (10 m).
XPump up the tire again.
After a maximum of 10 minutes, the tire
pressure must be at least 180 kPa (1.8 bar/
26 psi).
GWARNING
If the required tire pressure is not reached after the specified time, 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 characteristics. There is a
risk of accident.
Do not continue driving. Contact a quali-
fied specialist workshop.
Tire pressure reached
GWARNING
A tire temporarily sealed with tire sealant impairs the driving characteristics and is
not suitable for higher speeds. There is a
risk of accident.
You should therefore adapt your driving
style accordingly and drive carefully. Do
not exceed the specified maximum speed
with a tire that has been repaired using
tire sealant.
The maximum speed for a tire sealed with tire
sealant is 50 mph (80 km/h). The 50 mph
(80 km/h) maximum speed sticker must be
affixed to the instrument cluster within the
driver's field of vision.
!After use, excess tire sealant may run out
of the filler hose. This could cause stains.
Therefore, place the filler hose in the
plastic bag that contained the TIREFIT kit.
HEnvironmental note
Have the used tire sealant bottle disposed
of professionally, e.g. at a qualified spe-
cialist workshop.
If a tire pressure of 180 kPa (1.8 bar/26 psi)
has been achieved after 10 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
2 miles (3 km) 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).

Rim
This is the part of the wheel on which the tire
is mounted.
GAWR (Gross Axle Weight Rating)
The GAWR is the maximum gross axle weight
rating. The actual load on an axle must never
exceed the gross axle weight rating. The
gross axle weight rating can be found on the
vehicle identification plate on the B-pillar
on the driver's side.
Speed rating
The speed rating is part of the tire identi-
fication. It specifies the speed range for
which the tire is approved.
GVW (Gross Vehicle Weight)
The gross vehicle weight includes the weight
of the vehicle including fuel, tools, the spare
wheel, accessories installed, occupants, lug-
gage and the drawbar noseweight, if appli-
cable. The gross vehicle weight must not
exceed the gross vehicle weight rating GVWR
as specified on the vehicle identification
plate on the B-pillar on the driver's side.
GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating)
The GVWR is the maximum permissible gross
weight of a fully loaded vehicle (the weight of
the vehicle including all accessories, occu-
pants, fuel, luggage and the drawbar nose-
weight, if applicable). The gross vehicle
weight rating is specified on the vehicle
identification plate on the B-pillar on the
driver's side.
Maximum loaded vehicle weight
The maximum weight is the sum of:
Rthe curb weight of the vehicle
Rthe weight of the accessories
Rthe load limit
Rthe weight of the factory installed optional
equipment
Kilopascal (kPa)
Metric unit for tire pressure. 6.9 kPa corre-
sponds to 1 psi. Another unit for tire pressure
is bar. 100 kilopascals (kPa) are the equiva-
lent of 1 bar.
Load index
In addition to the load-bearing index, the
load index may also be imprinted on the side-
wall of the tire. This specifies the load-
bearing capacity more precisely.
Curb weight
The weight of a vehicle with standard equip-
ment including the maximum capacity of fuel,
oil and coolant. It also includes the air-con-
ditioning system and optional equipment if
these are installed in the vehicle, but does
not include passengers or luggage.
Maximum load rating
The maximum load rating is the maximum per-
missible weight in kilograms or pounds for
which a tire is approved.
Maximum permissible tire pressure
Maximum permissible tire pressure for one
tire.
Maximum load on one tire
Maximum load on one tire. This is calculated by dividing the maximum axle load of one axle
by two.
PSI (pounds per square inch)
A standard unit of measure for tire pressure.
Aspect ratio
Relationship between tire height and tire
width in percent.
Tire pressure
This is pressure inside the tire applying an
outward force to each square inch of the tire'ssurface. The tire pressure is specified in
pounds per square inch (psi), in kilopascal
(kPa) or in bar. The tire pressure should only
be corrected when the tires are cold.
Cold tire pressure
The tires are cold:
Rif the vehicle has been parked with the
tires out of direct sunlight for at least
three hours and
Rif the vehicle has not been driven further
than 1 mile (1.6 km)
