clockwise.
#
Insert the plug of filling hose 3 in socket 5
of tire sealant bottle 9 .
#
Turn filling hose 3 a quarter turn clockwise.
#
Remove the valve cap from valve A on the
defective tire.
#
Screw union nut 4 of filling hose 3 onto
valve A .
#
Insert plug

#
Turn the key to position

in the ignition lock.
#
Press on and off switch 8 on the tire inflation
compressor.
The tire inflation compressor is switched on.
The tire is inflated. First, tire sealant is pum-
ped into the tire. The pressure may briefly rise
to approximately 500 kPa (5 bar/73 psi).
Do not switch off the tire inflation compressor
during this phase!
#
Let the tire inflation compressor run for a max-
imum of ten minutes.
The tire should then have attained a tire pres-
sure of at least 200 kPa (2.0 bar/29 psi).
If tire sealant leaks out, make sure you clean the
affected area as quickly as possible. It is prefera-
ble to use clean water.
If you get tire sealant on your clothing, have it
cleaned as soon as possible with perchloroethy-
lene.
If, after ten minutes, a tire pressure of 200 kPa
(2.0 bar/29 psi) has not been attained:
#
Switch off the tire inflation compressor.
#
Unscrew the filling hose from the valve of the
defective tire.
Please note that tire sealant may leak out when
you unscrew the filling hose.
#
Drive forwards or in reverse very slowly for
approximately 33 ft (10 m).
#
Pump up the tire again.
After a maximum of ten minutes, the tire pres-
sure must be at least 200 kPa (2.0 bar/
29 psi).

WARNING Risk of accident due to the
specified tire pressure not being achieved
If the specified tire pressure is not achieved
after the specified time, the tire is too badly
damaged. The tire sealant cannot repair the
tire in this instance.
The braking characteristics as well as the driv-
ing characteristics may be greatly impaired.
