What to do in an emergency If you have a flat tyre (with Tyre Mobility Kit)
Introduction
With the Tyre Mobility Kit (TMK) you
stay mobile even after experiencing
a tyre puncture.
The system of compressor and
sealing compound effectively and
comfortably seals most punctures
in a passenger car tyre caused by
nails or similar objects and reinflates
the tyre.
After you ensured that the tyre is
properly sealed you can drive cau
-
tiously on the tyre (up to 200 km
(120 miles)) at a max. speed of 80
km/h (50 mph) in order to reach a
service station or tyre dealer to
have the tyre replaced.
It is possible that some tyres, espe
-
cially with larger punctures or dam
-
age to the sidewall, cannot be
sealed completely.
Air pressure loss in the tyre may
adversely affect tyre performance.
For this reason, you should avoid
abrupt steering or other driving
manoeuvres, especially if the vehicle
is heavily loaded or if a trailer is in
use.
The TMK is not designed or intended
as a permanent tyre repair method
and is to be used for one tyre only.
This instruction shows you step by
step how to temporarily seal the
puncture simply and reliably.
Read the section "Notes on the safe
use of the TMK".
Do not use the TMK if a tyre is
severely damaged by driving run flat
or with insufficient air pressure.
Only punctured areas located within
the tread region of the tyre can be
sealed using the TMK.
