TIREFIT tire sealant - AH40.10-P-0001-01MCC

Model 451.3/4

Note. TIREFIT tire sealant has a shelf life of 3 to 4 years depending on the version, measured from the date of manufacture marked on the container. After this period has elapsed or the expiration date specified on the container is exceeded the TIREFIT tire sealant should be replaced.

Use

TIREFIT tire sealer can be used to seal minor perforations, especially as encountered on the tire's tread, to allow repairs at the location where the tire problem occurs. The tire can then continue in limited use until it can be replaced.

The customer is obliged, after using TIREFIT tire sealant to locate the next smart service center immediately in order to replace the damaged tire.

Scheme 24

Scheme 24: TIREFIT tire sealant - AH40.10-P-0001-01MCC

  1. For service conversions, the tire/disk wheel specifications and dimensions should be compared with the entries in the registration papers.
  2. Damaged and defective tires must always be replaced. The repair methods employed in the tire trade are not approved by Mercedes-Benz. Small nicks (< 0.8 mm) on the side wall of the tire do not usually pose a cause for concern, and continued use of such tires is approved.
  3. Clean the disk wheels in the bead seat area before mounting the tires.
  4. Replace tire valve, general.
  5. If the tires have a matching point, then, when mounting the tires, a specific assignment of tires and disk wheel (matching) is necessary to ensure smooth wheel operation. Identification of matching points: on tires by means of a colored dot on the outboard side of the tire on a steel rim, by color dot or punch mark on the outboard side of wheel on light alloy wheel, in general on the valve hole. Model 140: in addition color dot or countersink in rim base.
  6. If a single tire is replaced, always mount the new tire on the front axle. This does not apply to vehicles with different tires of varying specifications on the front and rear wheels.
  7. Always provide all disk wheels with tires of the same construction, same make and same design.
  8. If the maximum permissible speed of an M+S tire is lower than the maximum speed of the vehicle, an appropriate warning sticker must be affixed within the driver's field of view.
  9. Tires approved for higher speeds may be used.
  10. Run in new tires for approx. 100 km at moderate speed.
  11. Handed tires must be installed according to the arrow on the side wall of the tire.
  12. Tires are subject to an aging process with negative effects on the properties of the tire. In order to ensure optimum effectiveness in winter, M&S tires should not be used for longer than 4 years.

Tire pressure

(For specified values, see the tire pressure chart inside the fuel filler flap; on Vaneo model 414, see the B-pillar in the passenger side)

Too low tire pressure increases the rolling resistance and increases the flexing energy of the tire. This causes the critical temperature limit to be exceeded (carcass detachment) and destroys the tire. In the event of a pressure loss establish cause and if necessary establish cause and if necessary replace tire, tire valve or disk wheel.

Cleaning

The use of high-pressure spray wands projecting a concentrated round-pattern stream to clean the wheels can lead to tire damage. Such damage occurs especially on the tire side walls. When using flat jet nozzles, observe the following instructions

  1. Maintain a distance of at least 300 mm
  2. Do not direct the water jet at a single point on the surface of the tire for any length of time

Bearing system

Before putting into storage, clean tires thoroughly and check for damage and adequate tread depth. Mark the position and running direction of the tires with chalk. Do not store tires outdoors. The effects of sunlight, heat, moving air and ozone cause the rubber to lose its elasticity and strength, it ages faster and cracks. Storage areas should be dry, cool and dark. Avoid drafts by keeping doors and windows closed as much as possible. Do not bring tire into contact with gasoline, oil or greases as these dissolve rubber.

Disposal

Collection, storage and disposal should be performed in accordance with the legal requirements and the company's own regulations.

Rims

For safety reasons, damaged or deformed rims must not be repaired

Scheme 26

Scheme 26
  1. When changing wheels, e.g. light alloy wheels for steel rims, ensure that the wheel bolts required for the spare wheel are enclosed in a clearly visible position.
  2. Since December 1994 all models 124 and 202 receive a spare wheel with a steel rim. Vehicles with light alloy rims fitted at the plant have corresponding wheel bolts enclosed.
  3. Only use disk wheels of the same design approved by Mercedes-Benz.
  4. Strengthened steel rims are identified by a sticker on the wheel disk.
  5. On steel rims and light alloy disk wheels in general the wheel bolts should be tightened to the specified torque using a torque wrench. Retightening of the wheel bolts after approx. 100 to 500 km is not required.
  6. The seat for the tire bead must display no corrosion pits.
  7. Before inserting a new tire valve clean the contact surfaces on the disk wheel. To support the tire valve wheel covers must be fitted to steel rims.

Vehicles with tire pressure monitor

  1. Before replacing a tire, check the manufacture date of the wheel sensor. Wheel sensors, which are older than 5 or 7 years, must be replaced.
  2. Use STAR DIAGNOSIS to read out the actual values for the tire pressure monitoring system. Check the remaining life of the wheel sensor battery, replace the wheel sensor if necessary.

CHECK VALUES FOR REAR AXLE VEHICLE LEVEL CONTROL

Check camber, assign tabular value - AR40.20-P-0322-02MCC

The camber on the front axle is measured at toe 0° and it is dependent on the vehicle level.

Different vehicle levels make it therefore necessary to determine the camber specified value based on a camber table as follows

  1. Determine level of front axle using electronic level gauge. The level value is displayed by the electronic level gauge in decimal degrees only (Romess value).

The tolerance is 0° 30'

Maximum camber difference between left and right is 0° 30'.

Example

Level of front axle: 2° (value on level measuring device)

Check caster and assign to tabular value - AR40.20-P-0322-03MCC

The caster is measured between a 20° wheel angle to the right and a 20° wheel angle to the left, and varies according to the vehicle level.

Different vehicle levels therefore make it necessary to determine the specified caster value based on a caster table as follows

  1. Determine level of front axle and level of rear axle using the electronic inclinometer. The level value is displayed by the electronic level gauge in decimal degrees only (Romess value).

The tolerance is 0° 30'

Maximum caster difference between left and right is 0° 30'.

Scheme 59: Tire pressure monitor function - GF40.15-P-0001MCU

Function requirements

  1. Circuit 15 On
  2. Tire pressure monitor system functional

General information

The tire pressure monitor assists the driver when checking the tire inflation pressure and thus serves active safety.

The Tire pressure monitor monitors the air pressure in the individual tires. A previously stored tire pressure is used as a comparative value. In the event of a relevant pressure loss the driver is warned via the tire pressure monitor warning lamp. The tire pressure measuring range extends from p = 0 and 5.5 bar.

The tire pressure monitor is made up of the following component functions

  1. Tire pressure sensing
  2. Warning display
  3. Manual restart

Tire pressure sensing

The TPM [RDK] control unit is permanently operational. Each time the CAN wakes-up the TPM [RDK] control unit performs a re-initialization. While driving, the TPM [RDK] system continuously monitors the tire pressure of all rotating wheels (with circuit 15 Off for a further t = 19 min). With new wheels or a parking time in excess of t > 19 min, the individual wheel detection and axle assignment must be completed first via the TPM wheel sensors. The TPM wheel sensors transmit data telegrams every t = 60 s while driving.

These data telegrams contain the pressure, tire pressure temperature, individual serial number and status information (manufacturer, direction of rotation, operating mode etc.). The data are conveyed via two-way radio to the TPM [RDK] control unit. In addition the TPM [RDK] control unit takes into account the outside temperature and the vehicle speed for the tire pressure determination. These data are provided via CAN from the instrument cluster.

Warning indicator

A warning is issued when a relevant loss of pressure has been detected in at least one of the tires.

The driver receives the feedback over the tire pressure monitor warning lamp. The warning is issued without any position data.

Manual restart

The tire pressure monitor button in the cockpit switch panel can be used to reactivate the tire pressure to be monitored.

When the tire pressure monitor button is pressed the tire pressure at that time, as long as it is in the permissible limits, is stored in the internal memory of the TPM [RDK] control unit and used as a reference pressure.

A manual restart is displayed by the tire pressure monitor warning lamp flashing 3 times. The warning lamp request is sent over CAN from the TPM [RDK] control unit.

A manual restart must be carried out for each change in tire inflation pressure, when replacing a wheel or a wheel sensor as well as when replacing the TPM [RDK] control unit
