Run-flat tires
Concept
Run-flat tires permit continued driving un-
der restricted conditions even in the event
of a complete loss of tire inflation pressure.
General information
The wheels are composed of tires that are
self-supporting to a limited degree.
The support of the sidewall allows the tire
to remain drivable to a restricted degree in
the event of a tire inflation pressure loss.
Follow the instructions for continued driv-
ing with a flat tire.
Safety information
WARNING
Your vehicle handles differently with a
run-flat with no or low inflation pressure;
for instance, your lane stability when
braking is reduced, braking distances are
longer and the self-steering properties will
change. There is a risk of an accident.
Drive moderately and do not exceed a
speed of 50 mph/80 km/h.
Label
The tires are marked on the tire sidewall
with RSC Run-flat System Component.
Repairing a flat tire
Safety measures
Park the vehicle as far away as possible
from passing traffic and on solid ground.
Switch on the hazard warning system.
Secure the vehicle against rolling away
by setting the parking brake.
Turn the steering wheel until the front
wheels are in the straight-ahead posi-
tion and engage the steering wheel lock.
Have all vehicle occupants get out of the
vehicle and ensure that they remain out-
side the immediate area in a safe place,
such as behind a guardrail.
If necessary, set up a warning triangle
at an appropriate distance.
Mobility System
Concept
With the Mobility System, minor tire dam-
age can be sealed temporarily to enable con-
tinued travel. To accomplish this, sealant is
pumped into the tires, which seals the dam-
age from the inside.
