ri se toappr oximately 500 kPa (5 bar/73 psi). Do not switch off
the ty reinflation compres‐
sor during this phase. #
Let the tyre inflation compressor runfo r a
maximum of ten minu tes.
The tyre should then ha veattained a tyre
pressure of at least 200 kPa (2.0 bar/
29 psi).
If tyre sealant leaks out, make sure you clean the
af fected area as quickly as possible. It is prefera‐
ble touse clean water.
If yo uge t tyre sealant on your clo thing, ha veit
cleaned as soon as possible with per chloroe thy‐
lene.
If, af terte n minutes, a tyre pressure of
200 kPa (2.0 bar/29 psi) has not been ach‐
ie ve d: #
Switch off the tyre inflation compressor. #
Unscr ew thefilling hose from theva lve of the
defective tyre.
Please no tethat tyre sealant may leak out when
unscr ewing thefilling hose. #
Very slowly drive forw ards or reve rse appr ox‐
imately 10m. #
Pump up the tyre again.
Af ter a maximum of ten minu testh e tyre
pressure must be at least 200 kPa (2.0 bar/

WARNING Risk of accident due tothe
specified tyre pressure not being ach‐
ie ved
If th e specified tyre pressure is not achie ved
af te rth e specified time, the tyre is too badly
damaged. The tyre sealant cannot repair the
tyre in this ins tance.
Dama ged tyres and a tyre pressure that is
to o low can significantly impair braking and
handling characteristics. #
Do not drive on. #

200 kPa (2.0 bar/29 psi) has been achie ved: &
WARNING Risk of accident from driving
wi th sealed tyres
A tyre temp orarily sealed with tyre sealant
impairs handling characteristics and is not
suitable for higher speeds. #
Adapt your driving style according lyand
drive carefull y. #
Do not exceed the specified maximum
