2015 MINI Countryman inflation pressure

▷If a warning triangle or portable hazard
warning lamp is required, set it up on the
roadside at an appropriate distance from
the rear of the vehicle. Comply with all
safety guidelines and regulations. ◀
The procedure to correct a flat tire depends on
the equipment in the vehicle:
▷Run-flat tires, refer to page 224.▷MINI Mobility System, refer to page 225.
MINI Mobility System
Notes
▷Follow the instructions on using the Mobi‐
lity System found on the compressor and
sealant bottle.▷Use of the Mobility System may be ineffec‐
tive if tire damage is greater than approx.
1/8 in/4 mm in size.▷Contact the nearest service center if the tire
cannot be made drivable.▷If possible, do not remove foreign bodies
that have penetrated the tire.▷Pull the speed limit sticker off the sealant
bottle and apply it to the steering wheel.

stowed in the compressor housing.
Using the Mobility System
To repair a flat tire with the Mobility System,
proceed as follows:
▷Filling the tire with sealant▷Distributing the sealant▷Correcting the tire inflation pressure
Filling the tire with sealant
Adhere to the specified sequence
Adhere to the specified sequence of the
steps; otherwise, sealant may escape under
high pressure. ◀
1.Shake the sealant bottle.2.Pull the connection hose 6 fully out of the
compressor housing and screw it onto the
sealant bottle connection. Ensure that the
connection hose is not kinked.Seite 225Wheels and tiresMOBILITY225

3.Insert the sealant bottle into the compres‐
sor housing in a vertical position.4.Unscrew the dust cap off of the valve of the
defective wheel and screw the filling hose 2
of the sealant bottle onto the valve.5.Ensure that the compressor is switched off.6.Insert connector 5 into the lighter socket/
socket in the passenger compartment, refer
to page 110.7.When the engine is running:
Switch on the compressor and let it run for
approx. 3 to 8 minutes to fill sealant into
the tire and achieve a tire inflation pressure
of approx. 1.8 bar/26 psi.
While sealant is being filled, the inflation
pressure may intermittently rise to approx.
5 bar/73 psi. Do not switch off the com‐
pressor in this phase.8.Switch off the compressor.
Do not allow the compressor to run too
long
Do not allow the compressor to run longer than
10 minutes; otherwise, the device will overheat
and may be damaged. ◀
If an air pressure of 1.8 bar/26 psi is not
reached:
1.Unscrew the filling hose 2 from the wheel
and drive forward and back approx.
33 ft/10 m to evenly distribute the sealant
in the tire.2.Inflate the tire again using the compressor.If the inflation pressure of 1.8 bar/26 psi is still
not reached, the tire is too heavily damaged.
Contact the nearest service center.
Stowing the Mobility System1.Unscrew the filling hose 2 of the sealant
bottle from the wheel.2.Unscrew the compressor connection hose 6
from the sealant bottle.3.Connect the filling hose 2 of the sealant
bottle with the free connector on the seal‐
ant bottle.
This prevents left-over sealant from escap‐
ing from the bottle.4.Wrap the empty sealant bottle in suitable
material to avoid dirtying the cargo area.5.Stow the Mobility System back in the vehi‐
cle.
Distributing the sealant
Drive approx. 3.1 miles/5 km to evenly distrib‐
ute the sealant.
Do not exceed a speed of 50 mph/80 km/h. If
possible, do not drop below a speed of
10 mph/20 km/h.
Correcting the tire inflation pressure
1.After driving approx. 3.1 miles/5 km, or
about 10 minutes, stop in a suitable loca‐
tion.2.Screw the connection hose 6 of the com‐
pressor directly onto the tire valve.3.Insert the connector 5 into the power
socket in the passenger compartment.4.Correct the tire inflation pressure to
1.8 bar/26 psi. When the engine is running:▷To increase the inflation pressure:
switch on the compressor. To check the
currently set inflation pressure, switch
off the compressor.▷To reduce the inflation pressure: press
the release button 9.Seite 226MOBILITYWheels and tires226

Do not allow the compressor to run too
long
Do not allow the compressor to run longer than
10 minutes; otherwise, the device will overheat
and may be damaged. ◀
If the inflation pressure is not maintained, take
the vehicle on another drive, distributing the
sealant, refer to page 226. Then repeat steps
1 to 4 once.
If the inflation pressure of 1.8 bar/26 psi is still
not reached, the tire is too heavily damaged.
Contact the nearest service center.
Continuing the trip Note the maximum speed
Do not exceed the maximum speed of
50 mph/80 km/h; otherwise, accidents can oc‐
cur. ◀
Replace the defective tire as soon as possible
and have the wheel balanced.
Have the Mobility System refilled.
Snow chains
Only certain fine-link snow chains have been
tested by MINI, classified as safe for use, and
recommended. Consult your service center for more information.
Use only in pairs on the front wheels, equipped
with tires of the following size:
195/60 R 16 M+S
With ALL4 all-wheel drive: only mount snow
chains on the front wheels.
Observe the manufacturer's instructions when
mounting snow chains. Do not exceed a speed
of 30 mph or 50 km/h when using snow chains.
Do not initialize the Flat Tire Monitor if snow
chains are mounted; otherwise, the instrument
might issue an incorrect reading.Do not initialize the Tire Pressure Monitor if
snow chains are mounted; otherwise, the in‐
strument might issue an incorrect reading.
When driving with snow chains, it may be use‐
ful to temporarily deactivate DSC or activate
DTC, refer to page 92.Seite 227Wheels and tiresMOBILITY227
