MINI MOBILITY SYSTEM*
If an air pressure of 26 psi /
180 kPa cannot be reached,
unscrew the hose 1 and drive back and
forth about 33 ft / 10 m so that the liq-
uid sealant is distributed in the tire.
Afterwards repeat the procedure.
If an air pressure of 26 psi / 180 kPa is
still not reached, the tire is too badly
damaged. Please contact the nearest
MINI Dealer.<

-
tributed.
Do not exceed a speed of 40 mph /
60 km/h.
If possible do not drive at a speed lower
than 10
mph / 20 km/h.<
Checking tire inflation pressure
1. After driving for approx. 10 minutes, pull
over at a suitable location
2. Screw hose with manometer back onto
the tire valve
3. Check the tire inflation pressures.
The tire inflation pressure must be
at least 18 psi / 130 kPa. If it is not,
do not continue driving.<
If 18 psi / 130 kPa are displayed:
4. Ignition key position 1:
Turn on compressor 2. Correct the tire
inflation pressure to the specified value,
refer to the tire inflation pressure table
on page
98
5. Replace the tire as soon as possible.
The use of the MINI Mobility System
may be ineffective with tire damage
larger than approx.
1
/
6
in / 4 mm. Please
contact the nearest MINI Dealer if the tire
cannot be made drivable with the MINI
