on the electric air
pump to I.
The electric air pump is switched on. The
tyre is inflated.
i
First, TIREFIT is pumped into the tyre. The
pressure can briefly rise to around 5 bar.
Do not switch off the electric pump dur-
ing this phase.
X
Let the electric pump run for five minutes.
The tyre should then have a pressure of at
least 1.8 bar.
!
Do not operate the electric air pump for
longer than eight minutes at a time without
a break. Otherwise, it may overheat.
The air pump can be operated again once
it has cooled down.
If a pressure of 1.8 bar is not reached after
five minutes:
X
Switch off and disconnect the electric air
pump and drive the vehicle forwards or
backwards approximately 10 m.
This distributes the TIREFIT more evenly.
X
Remove TIREFIT sealant filler bottle
1
from the electric pump.
X
Pump up the tyre again.
G
Risk of accident
If a pressure of 1.8 bar is not achieved after
five minutes, the tyre is too badly damaged.
Do not drive any further. Consult a qualified
specialist workshop which has the neces-
sary specialist knowledge and tools to carry
out the work required. Mercedes-Benz rec-
