*
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 liquid seal-
ant 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 dam-
aged. Please contact the nearest MINI
Dealer.<
5. Turn off compressor 2
6. Unscrew hose 1 from the tire valve
7. Store the MINI Mobility System back in
the vehicle.
The instructions for using the MINI
Mobility System are also given on the
equipment.<
Distributing liquid sealantImmediately drive for approx. 10 minutes,
so that the liquid sealant is uniformly dis-
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 pressure1. 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:
switch on compressor 2. Correct the tire
inflation pressure to the specified value,
refer to the tire inflation pressure table
on page105
5. Replace the tire as soon as possible.
The use of the MINI Mobility System
may be ineffective with tire damage
larger than approx. 1/6in/4mm. Please
contact the nearest MINI Dealer if the tire
cannot be made drivable with the MINI
Mobility System.<
Driving on
Do not exceed the permitted maxi-
mum speed of 50 mph / 80 km/h;
otherwise an accident could happen.<
Replace the defective tire as soon as
possible and have the new wheel/tire
assembly balanced. Have the MINI Mobility
System refilled.<
Tire change setWhen changing a tire, always observe the
safety measures and the procedure for
changing tires starting on page133.
In case of a flat tire the tire change
set is not needed due to the availabil-
ity of the MINI Mobility System.<
