the underside of the vehicle hitting the edge
of the ramp. Maximum permitted breakover
angle: 17°
Approach/departure angle
Transition from the horizontal pla ne to a g ra­
dient or from a grade back to level ground. In­
dicates the angle up to which the vehicle can
drive onto or off a slope at low speed without
striking the bumper or the underbody. Maxi­
mum permitted approach/departure angle :
25° (front), 20° (rear)
Ground clearance
The distance between the road surface and

Exceeding the stated maximum figures
-
can result in severe injuries or vehicle dam­
age.
- All the information was gathered on lev­

Driving tips
On poor road and offroad, there is always on ­
ly one motto: Plan ahead and drive slowly!
Please observe the following when dr iving
away from paved roads:
• Drive only on roads and offroad sections
wh ich match the design of your vehicle and
your abilities as a dr iver. Never take risks!
• Drive slowly and plan ahead!
• Take into consideration the
ground clear­
ance
of your vehicle.
• Activate the
ESC off road mode ~ page 19 7
as needed. •
Use the
hill descent assist¢ page 199
when driving down steep sections on hi lls .
Unpaved roads and offroad
Drive slowly on unfamiliar roads and unknown
offroad sections, and look o ut for unexpected
obstacles (e.g . potholes, ro cks, tree stumps,
etc.).
To prevent the vehicle from bottoming and
avo id damage to the underbody, you should
drive straig ht across severe bumps in the
ground with only one side o f the ve hicle so
that only two of yo ur whee ls cross the bumps.
Drive briskly through sandy or marshy offroad
sections and do not stop , if at all possible.
Driving through water
Note the follow ing to avoid veh icle damage
when driving through water, for example on
flooded roads:
- The water must not be any higher than the
bottom of the vehicle body.
- Do not drive faster than walk ing speed .
Driving on a slope
If you ever find yourse lf not able to climb a
s lope, do not try to turn around, drive back
down in
reverse. Otherwise, you run the r isk
of tipp ing over.
If the vehicle threatens to tip over when
driving across a slope, you must immediate­
ly steer downhill in the direction of the
slope.
Do not park your vehicle on steep s lopes or
grades.
T o red uce the risk of tipping over, drive on
s lopes in the direction of the downward slope
(fall line) -
not crosswise.
A WARNING
-~
After driving through water, mud, slush,
etc ., the brakes may be s low to take effect
because of wet brake rotors and pads. Dry
the brakes first by braking carefully to re-
store the full braking effect. .,..

Performing the repair
Applies to vehicles: with tire repair kit
F ig. 2 15 Perform ing the repa ir
Prep arati ons
.. Park the veh icle as far as possib le from
moving traffic in the event of a flat tire.
.. Set the
park ing bra ke to prevent the vehicle
from roll ing unintentionally .
.. Sh ift the
s e le ctor l ever i nto th e P po sition .
.. Determ ine whether a repair w ith the t ire re­
pair kit is possible o r not
9 page 2 72.
.. Let all of the passengers
exi t the vehicle
and move a safe distance away 9 &,. .
.. Take the sealant bottle and the compresso r
out of the luggage compartment
9page 104 , fig. 113.
.. Affix the label "max. 50 mph (80 km/h)",
found on the sealant bottle, to the instru­ ment cluster where it can be seen by the
driver .
Filling a tire
.. Shake the bottle thorough ly before fi lling.
.. Screw the accompanying filling hose com-
pletely onto the bottle. This breaks through
the foi l seal automatically at the connec ­
t ion .
.. Remove the valve cap from the tire valve
and unscrew the valve insert using the ac­
companying va lve inser t tool
9 fig. 215 .
.. Lay the valve insert on a clean surface.
.. Remove the sealing plug from the filling
hose and connect the hose to the tire va lve .
.. Hold the bottle with the bottom fac ing up­
ward and empty the entire contents into the
tire.
.. Then pull out the hose and screw the valve
i nsert t ightly back into the tire valve .
What do I do now ? 273
Inflating a tir e
.. Sc rew the fill ing hose for the compressor
onto the t ire valve and insert the connector
into the cigarette lighter .
.. Inflate the tire to between 29 PSI (200 kPA)
and 36 PSI (250 kPA) and read the pressure
on the gauge .
.. If this t ire pressure is not reached, dr ive
your veh icle approximately 33 ft (10 meters)
forward or backward so that the sealant can be red istributed inside the tire. If at th is
t ime the required a ir pressure st ill canno t be
reached, the tire is too bad ly damaged and
cannot be repaired w ith the t ire sea lant .
Final inspection
... Stop the vehicle aft er driving for about 10
m inutes and check the tire pressure.
... If the tire pressure is lower than 19 PSI
(130 kPA), then the tire is too severely dam­
aged. Do not continue driving . Please seek
professiona l assistance .

ty precautions on the compresso r and in
the instructions on the bottle of sealant!
- If a tire pressure of 29 PSI (200 kPA)
cannot reached afte r inflat ing for 12 m i­
nutes, then the t ire is too severe ly dam­
aged. Do not cont inue drivi ng.
- Obta in q ual ified help if it is not possible
to pe rform the repair wit h the tire seal­
a nt .
