at least 1.8 bar.

Do not operate the electric air pump for
longer than 6 minutes without a break, otherwise
it may overheat.
The air pump can be used again once it has
cooled down.
If a maximum tyre pressure of 1.8 bar is
not achieved:
왘
Switch off and remove the electric air
pump.

Risk of accident
If a pressure of 1.8 bar still cannot be
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-
ommends that you use a Mercedes-Benz
Service Centre for this purpose. In particu-
lar, work relevant to safety or on safety-re-
lated systems must be carried out at a
qualified specialist workshop.
