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
:
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 necessary
specialist knowledge and tools to carry out
the work required. Mercedes-Benz recom-
mends that you use a Mercedes-Benz Service
Centre for this purpose. In particular, work
relevant to safety or on safety-related sys-
tems must be carried out at a qualified spe-
cialist workshop.
When a tyre pressure of at least 1.8 bar is
reached:
X
Press on/off switch
?
on the electric air
pump to 0.
The electric air pump is switched off.
X
Disconnect the electric air pump and stow
it away.
X
Fold up the warning triangle and stow it
away.
X
Pull away immediately.
This distributes the TIREFIT more evenly
around the tyre.
X
Stop after driving for approximately ten
minutes and check the tyre pressure with
the electric air pump.
G
Risk of accident
If the tyre pressure is now lower than 1.3 bar,
the tyre is too badly damaged. Do not drive
any further. Consult a qualified specialist
workshop which has the necessary specialist
knowledge and tools to carry out the work
