i
First, TIREFIT is pumped into the tire. The
pressure can briefly rise to approximately
500 kPa (5 bar/73 psi).
Do not switch off the electric pump
during this phase.
X
Let the electric pump run for five minutes.
The tire should then have attained a
pressure of at least 180 kPa (1.8 bar/
26 psi).
G
Warning
The air hose can become hot during inflation.
Please exercise appropriate caution.
!
Do not operate the electric air pump for
longer than eight minutes at a time without
a break. It may otherwise overheat.
The air pump can be operated again once
it has cooled down.
If, after five minutes, a pressure of 180 kPa
(1.8 bar/26 psi) has been achieved, see
(Y page 330).
If, after five minutes, a pressure of 180 kPa
(1.8 bar/26 psi) has not been achieved, see
(Y page 330).
Tire pressure of 180 kPa (1.8 bar/
26 psi) is not achieved
If after five minutes a pressure of 180 kPa
(1.8 bar/26 psi) has not been achieved:
X
Press the on/off switch on the electric air
pump to 0.
The electric air pump is switched off.
X
Unscrew the filler hose from the valve.
X
Very slowly drive forwards or reverse
approximately 30 ft (10 m).
X
Pump up the tire again.
G
Warning
If after five minutes a pressure of 180 kPa
(1.8 bar/26 psi) cannot be achieved, the tire
is too badly damaged to be repaired reliably
using TIREFIT.
In this case TIREFIT cannot seal the tire
properly.
Do not drive any further.
Contact the nearest authorized Mercedes-
Benz Center for assistance or call roadside
assistance.
Tire pressure of 180 kPa (1.8 bar/
26 psi) is achieved
X
Press the on/off switch on the electric air
pump to 0.
The electric air pump is switched off.
X
Remove the TIREFIT kit from the wheel.
G
Warning
The air hose may still be hot. Exercise proper
caution to avoid burning yourself when
detaching the electric air pump.
!
After use, excess TIREFIT may run out of
the filler hose. This could cause stains.
Therefore, place the filler hose in the plastic
bag which contained the TIREFIT kit.
X
Stow the TIREFIT kit and the electric air
pump.
X
Pull away immediately.
G
Warning
Do not exceed a 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 of a TIREFIT
repaired tire may change. Adapt your driving
accordingly.
X
Stop after driving for approximately ten
minutes and check the tire pressure with
the electric air pump.
G
Warning
If tire inflation pressure has fallen below
130 kPa (1.3 bar/26 psi) do not continue to
drive the vehicle.
