load
Maximum tire load is the maximum permissible
weight for which the tire is approved.
Locate the maximum tire load on the tire side#jwall and the Gross Axle Weight Rating #m GAWR
#m on the certification label on the driver door B-
pillar. Divide the tire load by 1.1. It must be greater than one-half of the vehicle#ss GrossAxle Weight Rating #m GAWR. Note, front vs.
rear GAWR and tire loads, respectively.

WARNING
The temperature grade for this tire is es#j
tablished for a tire that is properly inflated and
not overloaded. Excessive speed, underinfla#j tion, or excessive loading, either separately or
in combination, can cause heat buildup and
possible tire failure.'

tires checked. For this purpose, drive carefully
to the nearest dealer#ss service center or an#j
other qualified service center or repair shop.
Have vehicle towed or transported as needed.'

Drive conservatively for the first
200 miles/300 km.
Retreaded
tires WARNING
Retreaded tires can have different tire
casing structures. With advanced age the serv#j
ice life can be limited. There is a risk of an acci#j
dent. The manufacturer of your vehicle does not recommend the use of retreaded tires.'

Follow the instructions for continued driving
with a flat tire.
Safety
information WARNING
Your vehicle handles differently with a
run-flat with no or low inflation pressure; for in#j stance, your lane stability when braking is re#jduced, braking distances are longer and theself-steering properties will change. There is a
risk of an accident.
Drive moderately and do not exceed a speed of 50 mph/80 km/h.'

Safety
information DANGER
If the exhaust pipe is blocked or ventila#j
tion is insufficient, harmful exhaust gases can
enter into the vehicle. The exhaust gases con#j tain pollutants which are colorless and odor#j
less. In enclosed areas, exhaust gases can also
accumulate outside of the vehicle. There is
danger to life. Keep the exhaust pipe free and
ensure sufficient ventilation.'

Filling1.Shake the sealant container.2.Pull filling hose completely out of the cover
of the sealant container. Do not kink the
hose.3.Slide the sealant container into the holder
on the compressor housing, ensuring that
it engages audibly.4.Screw the filling hose of the sealant con#j tainer onto the tire valve of the nonworking
wheel.5.With the compressor switched off, insert
the plug into the power socket inside the
vehicle.6.With standby state switched on or the en#j gine running, switch on the compressor.
Let the compressor run for max. 10 minutes tofill the tire with sealant and achieve a tire infla#j
tion pressure of approx. 2.5 bar.
While the tire is being filled with sealant, the
tire inflation pressure may sporadically reach
approx. 5 bar. Do not switch off the compres#j
sor at this point.
