Safety information
DANGER
If the exhaust pipe is blocked or ventilation is
insufficient, harmful exhaust gases can pene-
trate the vehicle. The exhaust gases contain
pollutants which are colorless and odorless.
In enclosed areas, exhaust gases can also
accumulate outside of the vehicle. There is a
danger to life. Keep the exhaust pipe free and
ensure sufficient ventilation.
NOTICE
The compressor can overheat during ex-
tended operation. There is a risk of damage
to property. Do not run the compressor for
more than 10 minutes.
Filling the tire with sealing compound
To fill in tire sealant, let the compressor run
for max. 10 minutes until a tire pressure of
2.5 bar/36 psi is reached.
1. With standby state or drive-ready state
switched on, switch on the compressor.
When adding sealant, the Tire Pressure
Monitor may briefly rise up to approx.
6 bar/87 psi before it shows the actual tire
pressure again. Do not turn off the com-
pressor at this stage.
2. Switch off the compressor when you reach
a tire pressure of 2.5 bar/36 psi.
Checking the tire pressure
To check the tire pressure, read the tire pres-
sure gauge on the compressor. The tire pres-
sure must be at least 2.5 bar/36 psi.
Tire pressure too high
If the tire pressure is too high, reduce the tire
pressure with the pressure reducing valve on
the compressor.
