#
Remove the cap from valve 7 on the faulty
tyre.
#
Screw filling hose 8 onto valve 7 .
#
Insert plug 4 into a 12 V socket in your
vehicle.
#
Switch on the ignition.
#
Press on and off switch 3 on the tyre infla‐
tion compressor.
The tyre inflation compressor is switched on.
The tyre is inflated. First, tyre sealant is pum‐
ped into the tyre. The pressure may briefly
rise to approximately 500 kPa (5 bar/73 psi).
Do not switch off the tyre inflation compres‐
sor during this phase!
#
Let the tyre inflation compressor run for a
maximum of ten minutes.
The tyre should then have attained a tyre
pressure of at least 200 kPa (2.0 bar/
29 psi).
If tyre 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 tyre sealant on your clothing, have it
cleaned as soon as possible with perchloroethy‐
lene.
If, after ten minutes, a tyre pressure of
200 kPa (2.0 bar/29 psi) has not been
attained:
#
Switch off the tyre inflation compressor.
#
Unscrew the filling hose from the valve of the
defective tyre.
Please note that tyre sealant may leak out when
unscrewing the filling hose.
#
Very slowly drive forwards or reverse approx‐
imately 10 m.
#
Pump up the tyre again.
After a maximum of ten minutes the tyre
pressure must be at least 200 kPa (2.0 bar/
29 psi).
&
WARNING Risk of accident due to the
specified tyre pressure not being
attained
If the minimum tyre pressure is not reached
after the specified time, the tyre is too badly
damaged. The tyre sealant cannot repair the
tyre in this instance.
The braking and driving characteristics may
be greatly impaired.
#
Do not continue driving.
#
Consult a qualified specialist workshop.
