Auxiliary power outlet
The auxiliary power outlet supplies power
to the following electrical accessories
when the key is turned to starter switch
position 1:
R the cigarette lighter*, available in
conjunction with the ashtray*
R the electric air pump, available in
conjunction with the tire repair kit*
R other consumers which operate up to a
maximum of
60 W
! The auxiliary power outlet can
accommodate 12V DC electrical
accessories designed for use with the
standard “cigarette lighter” plug type.
Keep in mind, however, that connecting
accessories to the auxiliary power outlet
(for example extensive connecting and
disconnecting, or using plugs that do not
fit properly) can damage the auxiliary
power outlet. With the auxiliary power
outlet damaged, the cigarette lighter*
may no longer be able to be placed in the
heating (pushed-in) position, or may pop
out before it is hot enough.
The auxiliary power outlet is located in the
lower center console. Auxiliary power outlet

valve G.
X Insert electrical plug B into the
auxiliary power outlet
(Y page 114).
X Insert the key in the starter switch and
turn it to position 1.
i The
vehicle’s battery is drained by use
of the electric air pump. You should
therefore keep the engine running — in
the open air — while inflating the tire. X
Press I on electric air pump switch C.
The
electric air pump is switched on and
inflates the tire.
i First, the sealant is pumped into the
tire. The pressure may briefly increase
to

a high value. This is normal and not an
indication of a malfunction. Do not
switch off the electric air pump.
X Let the electric air pump inflate the tire
for a maximum of ten minutes.
Pressure gauge ; must display at least
180 kPa (1.8 bar, 26 psi)

.!
Do not operate the electric air pump
longer than ten minutes without
interruption.

Otherwise it may overheat.
You may operate the electrical air pump
again after it has cooled off.
X If a tire inflation pressure of at least
180 kPa (1.8 bar, 26 psi)

is not attained,
turn off the electric air pump by
pressing 0 on electric air pump switch
C.
X Unscrew the end of filler hose ? from
tire valve G.
X After clearing the area around the
vehicle of people and obstacles, drive
vehicle back or forth very slowly
approximately 30 ft (10 m).
This

serves to better distribute the tire
sealant material inside the tire.
X Screw the end of filler hose ? onto tire
valve G.
X Inflate the tire again. G
WARNING
If a tire inflation pressure of
180
kPa (1.8 bar, 26 psi) is not attained, the
tire is too severely damaged for the tire
sealant to provide a reliable tire repair.
In this case, the tire sealant cannot
properly seal the tire.
Do not drive the vehicle.
Contact the nearest smart center for
assistance or call Roadside Assistance.
X After attaining a tire inflation pressure
of

at least 180 kPa (1.8 bar, 26 psi), press
0 on electric air pump switch C.
The electric air pump is switched off.
X Turn the key in the starter switch to
position 0.

are available at any authorized smart
center. G
WARNING
After changing a tire, contact a smart
center to make sure the bolts holding the
wheel to the car are tight enough.
Otherwise, the wheels could come off. Each
bolt should be tightened to a torque of
81 lb‑ft (110 Nm). Sealing a tire (Version 2)
