The defective tire must be replaced in
eve rycase. Wi
th MOExtended tyres (run-flat tyres), you can
continue todrive your vehicle even if there is a
tot al loss of pressure in one or more tyres. How‐
eve r,th e tyre af fected must not show any clearly
visible damage. Yo
u can recognise MOExtended tyres bythe
MOExtended marking which appears on the side
wa ll of the tyre.

WARNING Risk of accident from driving
wi th sealed tyres
A tyre temp orarily sealed with tyre sealant
impairs driving characteristics and is not
suitable for higher speeds. 0007
Adapt your driving style according lyand
drive carefull y. 0007
Do not exceed the maximum speed
limit with a tyre that has been repaired
using tyre sealant. 0007
Obser vethe maximum permissible speed for
a tyre sealed with tyre sealant 80 km/h. 0007
Affix th e upper section of the TIREFIT sticker
to the instrument clus ter in a location where
it will be easi lyseen bythe driver.

Have the tyre sealant bottle disposed of
professionall y,e.g. at a Mercedes-Benz
Service Centre. 0007
Switch off the tyre inflation compressor. 0007
Unscr ew thefilling hose from theva lve of the
defective tyre. 0007
Stow th e tyre sealant bottle, the tyre inflation
compressor and thewa rning triangle. 0007
Pull away immediatel y. 0007
Stop driving af ter appro ximately ten minu tes
and check the tyre pressure using the tyre
inflation compressor.
The tyre pressure must now be at least
13 0 kPa (1.3 bar/19 psi). 000A
WARNING Risk of accident due tothe
specified tyre pressure not being ach‐
ie ved
If th e specified tyre pressure is not achie ved
af te r a brief drive, the tyre is too badly dam‐
aged. The tyre sealant cannot repair the tyre
in this ins tance.
Dama ged tyres and a tyre pressure that is
to o low can significantly impair braking and
handling characteristics. 0007
Do not drive on. 0007
Consult a qualified specialist workshop. Countries

phone number, e.g. on the B‑pillar on the driver's
side. 0007
Cor rect the tyre pressure if it is still at least

sure table on the fuel filler flap forva lues. 0007
Toincrease the ty repressure: switch on

Note
s on noise or unusual handling charac‐
te rist ics
While driving, pay attention tovibrations, noises
and unusual handling characteristics, e.g. pulling
to one side. This may indicate that the wheels or
tyres are damaged. If you suspect that a tyre is
defective, reduce your speed immediatel y.Stop
th eve hicle as soon as possible tocheck the
wheels and tyres for dama ge. Hidden tyre dam‐
age could also be causing the unusual handling
ch aracteristics. If youfind no signs of damage,
ha ve the tyres and wheels checked at a qualified
specialist workshop. Note
s onregular lyinspecting wheels and
tyres 000A
WARNING Risk of accident from dam‐
aged tyres
Dama ged tyres can cause tyre pressure loss.
As a result, you could lose cont rol of your
ve hicle. 0007
Check the tyres regularly for signs of
dama geand replace any damaged tyres
immediatel y. Car
ryout thefo llowing checks on all wheels reg‐
ularly, at least once a month or as requ ired, e.g.
prior toa long journey or driving off- road:
R Check the tyre pressure (0013 page 451).
R Visually inspect tyres and wheels for dam‐
age.
R Check theva lve caps.
The valves must be pr otected against mois‐
ture and dirt bytheva lve caps appr oved
especially foryo ur vehicle byMercedes-Benz.
R Visual check of the tyre tread dep thand the
tyre contact su rface across the entire width.
The minimum tread dep thfor summer tyres
is 3 mm and for winter tyres 4 mm. Note
s on snow chains 000A
WARNING Risk of accident due toincor‐
re ct snow chain fitting
If yo u ha vefitted snow chains tothe front
wheels, the snow chains may drag against
th eve hicle body or chassis components.
This could cause damage totheve hicle or
th e tyres. 0007
Neverfit snow chains on the front
wheels. 0007
Only fit snow chains on there ar wheels
in pairs. 000E

tyres that do not feature run-flat characteris‐
tics, e.g. winter tyres.

s on inter changing wheels 000A
WARNING Risk of inju rythro ugh dif fer‐
ent wheel sizes
Inter changing the front and rear wheels if the
wheels or tyres ha vediffere nt dimensions may se
verely impair the driving characteris‐
tics.
The disk brakes or wheel suspension compo‐
nents may also be damaged. 0007
Rotate front and rear wheels on lyifthe
wheels and tyres are of the same
dimensions. Inter
changing the front and rear wheels if the
wheels or tyres ha vediffere nt dimensions can

The wear pat tern s on the front and rear wheels
dif fer:
R Front wheels wear more on the shoulder of
th e tyre
R Rear wheels wear more in the cent reofthe
tyre
On vehicles with the same front and rear wheel
size, you can inter change the wheels every
5,000 to10,000 km, depending on thewe ar.
Ensure the direction of rotation is maintained for
th e wheels. It is imperative
