Shake the bottle of sealant ››› Fig. 190 10 well.
●
Screw the inflator tube ››› Fig. 190 3 into
the sealant bottle in a clockwise direction.
The seal on the mouth of the bottle pierces
automatically.
● Remove the lid from the filling tube
››› Fig. 190 3 and insert the open end of the
tube into the tyre valve.
● Keep the bottle mouth facing down and
empty all the contents into the tyre.
● Remo
ve the empty bottle from the valve.
● Screw in the valve insert again with the aid
of the extractor ››› Fig. 190

Inflating the tyre
● Screw the tyre inflator tube ››› Fig. 190 8 of the air compressor into the tyre valve.
●
Check whether the air bleed screw
››› Fig. 190 6 is tightened.
● Start the engine and leave it running in
neutral.
● Attach the connector ››› Fig. 190 9 to one
of the vehicle's 12 volt sockets ››› page 119.
● Switch on the air compressor with the
ON/OFF switch ››› Fig. 190 5 .
● Keep the air compressor running until it
reaches 2.0 to 2.5 bar (29-36 psi / 200-250 kPa)
››› .
Do not leave it running
f or mor

e than 8 minutes ››› .
● Switch off the compressor.
● If it fails to reach a pressure of between
2.0 and 2.5 bar (29-36 psi / 200-250 kPa),
unscrew the inflator tube from the tyre valve.
● Move the vehicle some 10 metres forwards
or backwards so that the sealant is evenly
distributed in the tyre interior.
● Securely screw the compressor tyre inflator
tube into the tyre valve again and repeat the
inflation process.
● If the indicated pressure can still not be
reached, the tyre is too badly damaged. The
tyre cannot be sealed with the tyre mobility
system. Do not continue driving. You should
obtain professional assistance ››› .
● Disconnect the air compressor and unscrew
the inflator tube from the tyre valve.
● If a pressure between 2.0 and 2.5 bar
(29-36 psi / 200-250 kPa) is reached, then
continue driving at 80 km/h (50 mph) maxi-
mum.
● After 10 minutes , check the pressure again

Advice
the Keyless Access system, the steering
wheel could lock ››› .
WARNING
A vehicle with a flat battery should never be
towed.
● Never remove the key from the ignition
lock. Otherwise, the steering wheel lock
could suddenly lock. The vehicle would not
be controlled and a serious accident could
ensue. WARNING
When towing the vehicle, the handling and
braking efficiency change considerably.
Please observe the following instructions to
minimise the risk of serious accidents and in-
jury:
● As the driver of the vehicle being towed:
– The brake must be depressed must hard-
er as the brake servo does not operate.
Always remain aware to avoid collision
with the towing vehicle.
– More strength is required at the steering
wheel as the power steering does not op-
erate when the engine is switched off.
● As the driver of the towing vehicle:
– Accelerate gently and carefully.
– Avoid sudden braking and manoeuvres.
– Brake well in advance than usual and
brake gently. CAUTION
● Carefully fit and remove the towline anchor-
age and its cover to avoid damage to the ve-
hicle (e.g. paintwork).
● When towing, fuel could enter the catalytic
converter and cause damage! Instructions for tow starting
In general, the vehicle should not be started
by towing. Jump-starting is much more pref-
erable
› › ›
page 253.
For technical reasons, the following vehicles
can
not be tow started:
● Vehicles with an automatic gearbox.
● Vehicles with the Keyless Access locking
and ignition system, since the electronic
steering lock may not unlock.
● Vehicles with an electronic parking brake,
given that it is possible that the brake will
not be disengaged.
● If the vehicle battery is flat, it is possible
that the engine control units do not operate
correctly.
However, if your vehicle must absolutely be
tow-started (manual gearbox):
● Put it into second or third gear.
● Keep the clutch pressed down. ●
Switch on the ignition and the hazard warn-
ing lights.
● Release the clutch when both vehicles are
moving.
● As soon as the engine starts, press the
clutch and move the gear lever into neutral.
This helps to prevent a collision with the tow-
ing vehicle. CAUTION
When tow-starting, fuel could enter the cata-
lytic converter and damage it. Towing instructions
Tow rope or tow bar
When towing, the tow bar is the safest and
vehicle friendly way. You should only use a
tow rope if you do not have a tow bar.
A tow rope should be slightly elastic to avoid
damage to both vehicles. It is advisable to
use a tow rope made of synthetic fibre or sim-
ilarly elastic material.
Only secure the tow rope or tow bar to the
towline anchorage or specially designed fit-
ting.
Vehicles with a
factory fitted towing device ,
can only
be used for towing with a tow bar,
s

pecially designed to fit on a tow hitch ball

Advice
Manually unlocking the gear selector
lever Fig. 203
Remove the lining from the area of
the gear indication Fig. 204
Manual release of gear selector lever If the vehicle power supply should ever fail
(e.g. discharged battery) and the vehicle has
to be pushed or towed, the selector lever
must first be moved to position
N using the
m anual
release mechanism. The emergency release mechanism is located
underneath the gearbox cover panel to the
right-hand side. To release the gear selector
lever mechanism, a suitable tool is required,
(e.g. a screwdriver).
Preparations
●
Apply the parking brake. If the brake can-
not be activated, the vehicle must be alterna-
tively secured so that it cannot move.
● Switch the ignition off.
To remove the gearbox cover panel
● Pull the cover up around the dust guard on
the gear selector lever ››› Fig. 203.
● Tak

e the cover off by passing it over the
gear selector lever ››› .
Manual release of the selector lever
● Press the release lever ››› Fig. 204 in the di-
r ection of

the arrow and hold it in this posi-
tion.
● Press the lock button ››› Fig. 203
1 on the
gear selector lever knob and place the gear
selector lever in the N
position. WARNING
Never move the gear selector lever from the
position P while the electronic parking brake
is deactivated. Otherwise, the vehicle may
accidentally move off on hills or steep slopes
causing serious accidents. CAUTION
If the vehicle is moved on its wheels with the
engine stopped and the selector lever in posi-
tion N for a prolonged period of time and at
high speed, for example for towing, then the
automatic gearbox will be damaged. 262
