WARNING Risk of accident when driving
in eme rgency mode
When driving in emer gency mode, the han‐
dling characteristics are impaired. e.g. when
cornering, when accelerating stronglyand
when braking. #
Do not exceed the permissible maxi‐
mum speed. #
Avoid any abrupt steering and driving
maneuvers as well as driving over
obs tacles (curbs, pot holes, off-road). This applies, in pa
rticular, toa loaded
ve hicle. #
Stop driving in the emer gency mode if
yo u notice:
R banging noise
R vehicle vibration
R smoke which smells like rubber
R continuous ESP ®
inter vention
R crac ksin tire side walls #
After driving in emergency mode ha ve
th erims checkedby aqu alified special‐
ist workshop with rega rd totheir fur ther
use. #
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 onthe side
wa ll of the tyre.
Ve hicles with tyre pressure loss warning sys‐
te m: MOExtended tyres may only be used in
conjunction wi than activated tyre pressure loss
wa rning sy stem.
Ve hicles with tyre pressure monitoring sys‐
te m: MOExtended tyres may only be used in
conjunction wi than activated tyre pressure mon‐
itoring sy stem.
If a pressure loss warning message appears in
th e multifunction display:
R Check the tyre for dama ge.
R If driving on, obser vethefo llowing no tes. 506

If a tyre has gone flat and cannot be replaced
with an MOEx tended tyre, you can use a stand‐

Yo u can use TIREFIT tyre sealant toseal per fora‐
tion dama geof up to4 mm, particularly those in th

outside temp eratures down to-20 °C. &
WARNING Risk of accident when using
tyre sealant
In thefo llowing situations, the tyre sealant is
unable toprov ide suf ficient breakdown assis‐
ta nce, as it is unable toseal the tyre prop‐
erly:
R there are cuts or punctures in the tyre
larger than those pr eviously mentioned.
R the wheel rim is dama ged.
R you ha vedriven at very low tyre pres‐
sures or on a flat tyre. #
Do not drive on. #
Consult a qualified specialist workshop. &
WARNING Risk of inju ryand poisoning
from tyre sealant
Ty re sealant is hazardous tohealth and cau‐
ses ir rita tion. Do not allow it tocome into
contact wi thyour skin, eyes or clo thing, and do not swallow it. Do not inhale any
vapours.
Ke ep the tyre sealant away from children.
Obser vethefo llowing if you come into con‐
ta ct wi th the tyre sealant: #
Rinse off the tyre sealant from your skin
using water immediatel y. #
If tyre sealant gets into your eyes, thor‐
oughly rinse them using clean water
immediatel y. #
If tyre sealant has been swallowe d,
th oroughly rinse out your mouth imme‐
diately and drink plenty of water.Do not
induce vomiting and seek medical
attention immediately. #
Change out of clo thing which has come
into con tact wi thtyre sealant immedi‐
ately. #
If an alle rgic reaction occurs, seek med‐
ical attention immediatel y.508
Breakdown assis tance

#
Obser vethe maximum permissible speed for
a tyre sealed with tyre sealant 80 km/h. #
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.

TEStaining from leaking tyre sealant Af
ter use, excess tyre sealant may leak out
from thefilling hose. #
Therefore, place thefilling hose in the
plastic bag that con tained the TIREFIT

sponsible disposal Ty
re sealant contains polluta nts.#
Have the tyre sealant bottle disposed of
professionall y,e.g. at a Mercedes-Benz
Service Centre. #
Stow th e tyre sealant bottle, the tyre inflation
compressor and thewa rning triangle. #
Pull away immediatel y. #
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). &
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. #
Do not drive on. #
Consult a qualified specialist workshop. Countries
that ha veMercedes-Benz

phone number, e.g. on the B‑pillar on the driver's
side. #
Cor rect the tyre pressure if it is still at least
13 0 kPa (1.3 bar/19 psi). See the tyre pres‐
sure table on the fuel filler flap forva lues. #
Toincrease the ty repressure: switch on
th e tyre inflation compressor. #

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

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. #
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 (→ page 526).
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

Switch on the ESP ®
and adapt your
driving style accordingly. #
Use M+S tyres at outside temp eratures
of less than 50 °F. Obse
rveth efo llowing when selecting, fitting and
re placing tyres:
R Countr y-specific requirements for tyre
appro valth at define a specific tyre type for
yo ur vehicle.
Fu rthermore, the use of cer tain tyre types in
cer tain regions and areas of operation can
be highly beneficial.
R Only use tyres and wheels of the same type
(summer tyres, winter tyres, MOEx tended
tyres) and the same make.
R Only fit wheels of the same size on one axle
(left and right).
It is only permissible tofit a di fferent wheel
size in theeve nt of a flat tyre in order to
drive tothe specialist workshop.
R Only fit tyres of the cor rect size onto the
wheels. R
Do not make any modifications tothe brake
sy stem, the wheels or the tyres.
The use of shims or brake dust shields is not
permitted and may in validate theve hicle's
ge neral operating pe rmit.
R Vehicles with a tyre pressure monitoring
sy stem: allfitted wheels mu stbe equipped
with functioning sensors forth e tyre pres‐
sure monitoring sy stem.
R Attemp eratures below 7 °C, use winter tyres
or all-season tyres mar ked M+S for all
wheels.
Wi nter tyres bearing thei snowflake
symbol in addition tothe M+S marking pro‐
vide the best possible grip in wintry road
conditions.
R For M+S tyres, only use tyres with the same
tread.
R Obser vethe maximum permissible speed for
th e M+S tyres fitted.
If th is is below theve hicle's maximum speed,
th is must be indicated byan appropriate
label in the driver's field of vision. R
Run in new tyres at moderate speeds forthe
fi rs t10 0 km.
R Replace the tyres af ter six years at the latest,
re ga rdless of wear.
R When replacing with tyres that do not
fe ature run-flat characteristics: vehicles
with MOExtended tyres are not equipped
with a TIREFIT kit at thefa ctor y.Equip the
ve hicle with a TIREFIT kit af terre placing with
tyres that do not feature run-flat characteris‐
tics, e.g. winter tyres.
