Maintenance and care361

Stow the tire sealant bottle andthe tire infla‐tion compressor.
Pullawayimmediately.
Stop driving after approximatelyten minutesandcheckthe tire pressure usingthe tireinflation compressor.The tire pressure must now be at least130 kPa (1.3 bar/19 psi).
\nWARNINGRisk of accident duetothespecified tire pressure not beingreached
Ifthe specified tire pressure is notreachedafter a brief drive,the tire istoo badly dam‐aged. The tire sealant cannotrepairthe tireinthis instance.
Damaged tires and tire pressurethat istoolow can significantly impairthe braking prop‐erties andthe handlingcharacteristics.
Do not continue driving.
Consult aqualified specialistworkshop.
In cases such asthe one mentioned above, con‐tact an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center. Or
call 1-800-FOR-MERCedes (inthe USA) or1-800-387-0100(in Canada).
Correctthe tire pressure if it isstill at least130 kPa (1.3 bar/19 psi). SeetheTireandLoading Information placard onthe driver'sside B‑pillar orthe tire pressuretable inthefuelfillerflapforvalues.
Toincreasethe tire pressure:switchonthe tire inflation compressor.
Toreduce the tire pressure:press pressurerelease button1nexttopressuregauge2.

Tirepressure
Notes on tire pressure
\nWARNINGRisk of accident duetoinsuf‐ficient orexcessive tire pressure
Underinflated oroverinflated tires posethefollowingrisks:
RThe tires may burst, especially astheload andvehicle speed increase.
RThe tires maywearexcessively and/orunevenly,which maygreatlyimpair tiretraction.
RThe drivingcharacteristics, aswell assteering and braking, may be greatlyimpaired.
Comply withtherecommended tirepressure andcheckthe tire pressure ofall tires includingthe spare wheelregu‐larly:
Rat least once a month
Rwhenthe loadchanges
Rbefore embarking on a longer journey
Rif operating conditionschange, e.g. off-road driving
Adjustthe tire pressure as necessary.
Driving withtire pressurethat istoo high ortoolow can:
RShortenthe service life ofthe tires.
RCause increased tire damage.
RAdversely affect drivingcharacteristics andthus driving safety,e.g. dueto hydroplaning.
\nWARNINGRisk of an accident duetoinsufficient tire pressure
Tires with pressurethat istoo low canover‐heat and burstas aresult.
In addition,theyalso suffer fromexcessiveand/or irregularwear, which can significantlyimpairthe braking properties andthe han‐dlingcharacteristics.
Avoidexcessively low tire pressures inallthe tires, includingthe spare wheel.
Tirepressure which istoo low can cause:
RTiredefects as aresult ofoverheating
RImpaired handlingcharacteristics
RIrregularwear
RIncreased fuel consumption
\nWARNINGRisk of accident fromexces‐sive tire pressure
Tires withexcessively high pressure canburstbecausetheyare damaged more easilybyhighwayfill, pot holesetc.
In addition,theyalso suffer from irregularwear, which can significantly impairthe brak‐ing properties andthe handlingcharacteris‐tics.
Avoidexcessively high tire pressures inallthe tires, includingthe spare wheel.
Excessively high tire pressure canresult in:
RIncreased braking distance
RImpaired handlingcharacteristics
RIrregularwear

RImpaired driving comfort
RSusceptibilitytodamage
\nWARNINGRisk of accident causedbyrepeated drop in tire pressure
Ifthe tire pressure dropsrepeatedly,thewheel,valve or tire may be damaged.
Insufficient tire pressure can causethe tirestoburst.
Inspectthe tirefor signs offoreignobjects.
Check whetherthe wheel orvalve has aleak.
Ifyou are unabletorectifythe damage,contact aqualified specialistworkshop.
You canfind information on tire pressureforthevehicle'sfactory-installed tires onthefollowinglabels:
RTireand Loading Information placard ontheB‑pillar ofyourvehicle (page 399).
RTirepressuretable onthe inside ofthe fuelfillerflap (page 393).
Observethe maximum tire pressure(page 406).
Use a suitable tire pressuregaugetocheckthetire pressure. The outer appearance of a tiredoes not permit anyreliable conclusion aboutthe tire pressure.
Vehicles with a tire pressure monitoring sys‐tem:You can alsocheckthe tire pressure usingthe on-board computer.
Only correct tire pressure whenthe tires arecold. Conditionsfor cold tires:
RThevehicle has been parked withthe tiresout of direct sunlightfor at leastthree hours.
RThevehicle has traveled lessthan 1 mile(1.6 km).
Arise inthe tiretemperature of18°F (10 °C)increasesthe tire pressurebyapprox.10kPa(0.1 bar/1.5 psi).Takethis into account whencheckingthe tire pressure ofwarmtires.
The tire pressure recommendedfor increasedload/speed inthe tire pressuretable can affecttheride comfort.
\nWARNINGRisk of accident from unsuita‐ble accessories onthe tirevalves
Ifyou mount unsuitable accessories ontotirevalves,the tirevalves may beoverloaded andmalfunction, which can cause tire pressureloss.Tirepressure monitoring systemsforretrofitting will causethe tirevalvetoremainopen. This can alsoresult in tire pressureloss.
Only screwstandardvalve caps orvalvecaps specifically approvedbyMercedes-Benzforyourvehicle ontothe tirevalve.
