Consult a qualified specialist workshop. &
WARNING Risk of inju ryand poisoning
from tyre sealant
Ty re sealant is hazardous tohealth and cau‐
ses ir rita tion. Do not allow it tocome into
contact wi thyour skin, eyes or clo thing, and
do not swallow it. Do not inhale any vapours.
Ke ep the tyre sealant away from children.

The tyre inflation compressor is switched on.
The tyre is inflated. Fir st, tyre sealant is pum‐
ped into the tyre. The pressure may brief ly
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
attained: #
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. #
Drive forw ards or reve rseve ry slowly for
appr oximately 10m. #
Pump up the tyre again.
Af ter a maximum of ten minu testh e tyre

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. #

WARNING Risk of accident from driving
wi th sealed tyres
A tyre temp orarily sealed with tyre sealant
impairs driving characteristics and is not
suitable for higher speeds. #
Adapt your driving style according lyand
drive carefull y. #
Do not exceed the maximum speed
limit with a tyre that has been repaired
using tyre sealant. #
Obser vethe maximum permissible speed for
a tyre sealed with tyre sealant 80 km/h. #
