Practical hints
Flat tire
̈ If tire inflation pressure is at least
20 psi (1.3 bar), inflate tire to correct
pressure (see placard on the driver’s
door B-pillar), and drive to nearest
qualified workshop, e.g. an authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center, to have the
damaged tire replaced.
Recommended duration of use:
300 miles (500 km) at
50 mph (80 km/h) with the recom-
mended tire inflation pressure.
̈ Visit an authorized Mercedes-Benz
Center as soon as possible to obtain a
new TIREFIT kit.
̈ Bring used TIREFIT materials to an
authorized Mercedes-Benz Center for
proper disposal.
̈ Replace your TIREFIT container every
4 years. Replacement containers are
available at any authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center.
Warning!
G
If tire inflation pressure has fallen below
20 psi (1.3 bar) do not continue to drive the
vehicle.
Park your vehicle safely away from the road-
way and contact the nearest authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center or Roadside
Assistance.
Have the damaged tire replaced.
Warning!
G
Follow recommend inflation pressures.
Do not overinflate tires. Overinflating tires
can result in sudden deflation (blowout) be-
cause they are more likely to become punc-
tured or damaged by road debris, potholes,
etc.
Do not underinflate tires. Underinflated tires
wear unevenly, adversely affect handling
and fuel economy, and are more likely to fail
from being overheated.
Do not overload the tires by exceeding the
specified vehicle capacity weight (as indicat-
ed by the label on the pillar in the driver’s
door opening). Overloading the tires can
overheat them, possibly causing a blowout.
