Tire sealant TIREFIT (Mercedes-Benz A-Class W168)

0
Small point damage to tyres, especially on the running surface, can be sealed with TIREFIT tyre sealant. The sealant can be used at temperatures down to -20°C.

If possible, do not remove a nail or bolt that has punctured the tire. The sealant that has come out of the hole being treated hardens and can be removed as a stuck film.

Please note: Damage to tyres larger than 4 mm cannot be repaired using TIREFIT.


The maximum speed with a damaged tyre repaired with TIREFIT is no more than 80 km/h!

Avoid contact with eyes, skin, or clothing. If sealant does come into contact with your skin or eyes, rinse with plenty of clean water.

Warning! If a child swallows TIREFIT, rinse the mouth with plenty of water and give the child plenty of liquid to drink. Do not induce vomiting! Seek immediate medical attention!


Repairing a damaged tire

6. Squeeze the contents of the can into the tire, holding the can of sealant upside down.

Attention! To facilitate the procedure of pumping sealant into the tire, install the wheel so that the valve is not at the lowest point.

8. Inflate the tire using the electric pump included in the on-board tool kit.

9. Open the cover and remove the connecting hose 5 of the pump with the pressure gauge and adapter 6 for connection to the socket.

10. Screw hose 5 onto the tire valve.

11. Connect the adapter to the cigarette lighter and turn on the pump, after turning the ignition key to position 1.



After about 5 minutes, if an electric pump connected to the cigarette lighter is used for inflation, the pressure in the repaired tyre should be at least 1.8 bar.

If this pressure is not achieved, drive forward about 10 meters or reverse the car so that the sealant pumped into the tire is evenly distributed throughout the tire, and then repeat the inflation process.

Warning! The electric pump must not operate continuously for more than six minutes. Let it cool down. Otherwise, it may overheat.
