Practical hints Flat tire Warning! G Warning! G Warning! G If a tire pressure of 26 psi (1.8 bar) is not attained, tire is too severely damaged for TIREFIT to provide a reliable tire repair. In this case, TIREFIT cannot properly seal the tire. Do not drive the vehicle. Contact the nearest Mercedes-Benz Center or call Roadside Assistance. Do not exceed vehicle speed of 50 mph (80 km/h). A TIREFIT repair is not designed to operate at higher speeds. The sticker must be attached on the instrument cluster where it will be easily seen by the driver. Vehicle handling characteristics may change. Adapt your driving accordingly. If tire pressure has fallen below 20 psi (1.3 bar) do not continue to drive the vehicle. Park your vehicle safely away from the roadway and contact the nearest authorized Mercedes-Benz Center or Roadside Assistance. If tire pressure is at least 20 psi (1.3 bar), inflate tire to correct pressure (see label on fuel filler flap), and drive vehicle to nearest tire repair facility to have tire repaired or replaced. Recommended duration of use: 300miles (500km) at 50mph (80km/h) with the recommended tire pressure. Detach the electric air pump. The air hose may still be hot. Please exercise appropriate caution. Store the electrical plug and the air hose behind the flap and place the air pump back in the trunk. Close the trunk lid. Drive away immediately. The TIREFIT sealant will distribute itself evenly inside the tire. After driving vehicle for an initial 10 minutes, check tire pressure using the pressure gauge on the air pump. 344
