Practical advice
Flat tyre
The vehicle is equipped with the TIREFIT
kit.
Preparing the vehicle
왘
Stop the vehicle as far away as possible
from traffic and on a firm surface.
왘 Switch on the hazard warning lamps.
왘
Apply the parking brake.
왘 Move the selector lever to P .
왘
Any passengers should leave the vehi-
cle, ensuring that they are not endan-
gered as they do so.
왘 Place the warning triangle at a suitable
distance (
컄 page 234). Observe legal
requirements.
Using the TIREFIT kit
You can use the TIREFIT kit to seal small
punctures, particularly those in the tyre's
tread. TIREFIT can be used at outside tem-
peratures down to –20 °C.
Risk of accident
G
Your safety is at particular risk and TIREFIT
is unable to offer breakdown assistance in
the following situations:
앫
if there are cuts or punctures in the tyre
greater than 4 mm
앫
if the rims are damaged
앫
if you have driven at very low tyre pres-
sures or with flat tyres
Do not drive any further. Consult your PLM
or a qualified specialist workshop which has
the necessary specialist knowledge and
tools for the work to be done.
Mercedes-Benz recommends that you have
such work carried out at an SLR Service
Centre. In particular, work relevant to safety
or on safety-related systems must be car-
ried out at a qualified specialist workshop.
