WARNING Risk of accident due to the
specified tyre pressure not being ach‐
ieved
If the specified tyre pressure is not achieved
after a brief drive, the tyre is too badly dam‐
aged. The tyre sealant cannot repair the tyre
in this instance.
Damaged tyres and a tyre pressure that is
too low can significantly impair braking and
handling characteristics.
#
Do not drive on.
#
Consult a qualified specialist workshop.
