Note: When pumping in the sealant through
the tire valve, the pressure may rise up to
87 psi (6 bar) but will drop again after about
30 seconds.
WARNING
If you experience heavy vibrations,
unsteady steering behavior or noises
while driving, reduce your speed and
drive with caution to a place where it is
safe for you to stop your vehicle. Recheck
the tire and its pressure. If the tire pressure
is less than the recommended pressure or
if there are any cracks, bumps or similar
damage visible, do not continue driving
with this tire.
Checking the Tire Pressure
WARNING
Before driving make sure the tire is
adjusted to the recommended
inflation pressure. See Technical
Specifications (page 165). Monitor the
tire pressure until the sealed tire is
replaced.
1. Stop your vehicle after driving about
six miles (10 kilometers). Check, and
where necessary, adjust the pressure
of the damaged tire.
2. Attach the temporary mobility kit and
check the tire pressure from the
pressure gauge D.
3. If the pressure of the sealant-filled tire
is more than the recommended
pressure, adjust it to the recommended
pressure. See Technical
Specifications (page 165).
4. Follow the inflation procedure once
again to inflate the tire.
5. Check the tire pressure again from the
pressure gauge D. If the tire pressure is
too high, deflate the tire to the
specified pressure using the pressure
relief valve B.
6. If the tire pressure is less than the
recommended pressure, repeat steps
13 to 16 and steps 1 to 5 (Checking the
Tire Pressure).
7. Once you have inflated the tire to its
correct tire pressure, move the
compressor switch F to position 0,
remove the power plug E from the
auxiliary power point, unscrew the
sealant bottle hose, fasten the valve
cap and replace the protective cap A.
8. Drive to the nearest tire specialist to
get the damaged tire replaced. Before
the tire is removed from the wheel,
inform the tire specialist that the tire
contains sealant. Renew the sealant
bottle as soon as possible after it has
been used once.
Note: The temporary mobility kit only
provides an emergency repair. Regulations
concerning tire repair after using the
temporary mobility kit may differ from
country to country. You should consult a tire
specialist for advice.
Empty sealant bottles can be disposed of
together with normal household waste.
Return remaining sealant to an authorized
dealer or dispose of it in compliance with
local waste disposal regulations.
