remove the material from the vehicle or tire and wheel
components. Once TIREFIT sealing material had dried,
it can easily be peeled off and properly discarded.

Tire inflation pressure
A table (see fuel filler flap) lists the tire inflation
pressures specified for Mercedes-Benz recommended
tires as well as for the varying operating conditions.

Tire pressures listed for light loads are minimum values
offering high driving comfort. Increased inflation
pressures for heavy loads produce favorable handling
characteristics with lighter loads and are perfectly
permissible. The ride of the vehicle, however, will
become somewhat harder.

below 20 psi (1.3 bar) do not continue to drive the
vehicle.

flap), and drive vehicle to nearest tire repair
facility to have tire repaired or replaced.
