Practical hints
E Pull knob c out of valve core
extractor a as far as the stop.
E Screw valve core extractor a clock-

so, until the shaft of valve core
extractor a engages.
E Turn knob c counterclockwise until
the valve core is unscrewed.
E Pull knob c out of valve core
extractor a as far as the stop.
This pulls the valve core into the valve
core extractor and seals it against the
valve core extractor stop.
E Hook tire sealant bottle 8 into the up-
per vent hole in the wheel using
hook b.
E Press angle bracket d on hose of tire
sealant bottle 8 to the stop on the
flange of valve extractor a and clamp

screw on pressure gauge 5 is closed.
E Connect connector 6 to the 12 V
socket (12 V, 25 A, 300 watts) on the
center console (
e page 145).
! Only connect the electric air pump to the
12 V socket (
e page 145) on the center console
(12 V, 25 A, 300 watts). Do not connect the elec-
tric air pump connector to the cigarette lighter
socket or to another 12 V socket. You could oth-
erwise damage the vehicle electrical system.
E Start the engine.
E Press I on electric air pump switch 1.
The electric air pump is switched on.
The tire sealant is then pumped into
the tire and the tire pressure is in-
creased.
Allow the electric air pump to run for at
least 10 minutes until tire sealant bot-
tle 8 is completely empty and a mini-
mum tire pressure of 43.5 psi (3.0 bar)
is achieved.
! Do not run the electric air pump for more
than 20 minutes without a break; otherwise, it
may overheat. The air pump can be used again
once it has cooled down.
E Inflate the tire using the electric air
pump until the recommended tire pres-
sure (
e page 291) is achieved.
E Then press 0 on electric air pump
switch 1.
The electric air pump is switched off.
E Slide knob c quickly to the stop in
valve core extractor a.
E Turn knob c clockwise until the valve
core is firmly screwed into tire

i Do not unscrew the valve core extractor
from the tire valve while the valve core is un-
screwed from the tire valve. Tire sealant could
otherwise escape onto your hands.
The tire sealant is water-soluble. If tire sealant
escapes, you can wash it away with water.
E Pull knob c out of valve core
extractor a as far as the stop.
E Unscrew valve core extractor a coun-
