What to do in an emergency If you have a flat tire (with Tire Mobility Kit)
If you have a flat tire (with Tire
Mobility Kit)
1 Compressor
2 Sealant bottle
The Tire Mobility Kit is not designed or
intended as a permanent tire repair
method and is to be used for one tire
only.
The system with compressor and sealing
compound seals most tire punctures
caused by nails or similar objects and
reinflates the tire. However, larger punc
-
tures or sidewall damage cannot be
sealed completely.
After ensuring that the tire is properly
sealed, you can drive cautiously on the
tire (for a distance of up to 200 km (120
miles)) at maximum speed of 80 km/h
(50 mph) in order to reach a service sta
-
tion or a tire dealer to have the tire
replaced.
Avoid abrupt steering or other driving
maneuvers if the vehicle is heavily
loaded or if a trailer is in use.
Refer to "Safe use of the Tire Mobility
Kit" on page 7-13.
WARNING
僅 Do not use the Tire Mobility Kit to
repair punctures in the tire walls. This
can result in an accident due to tire
failure.
僅 Have your tire repaired as soon as
possible. The tire may loose air pres -
sure at any time after inflating with
the Tire Mobility Kit.
僅 Do not use the TMK if a tire is severely
damaged by driving run flat or with
insufficient air pressure. Only punc
-
tured areas located within the tread
region of the tire can be sealed using
the TMK.
僅 Do not use the Tire sealant after the
sealant has expired (i.e. past the expi -
ration date on the sealant container).
This can increase the risk of tire fail
-
ure.
僅 Keep the sealant out of reach of chil
-
dren, avoid sealant contact with eyes
and do not swallow the sealant.
CAUTION
When two or more tires are flat, do not
use the tire mobility kit because the sup
-
ported one sealant of Tire Mobility Kit is
only used for one flat tire.
NOTICE
For 20 inch wheel, take out the remover
tool in the Tire Mobility Kit. Insert the tool
to the hole and pull out the wheel cover.
