3. Insert the sealant bottle into the compres‐
sor housing in a vertical position.
4. Unscrew the dust cap off of the valve of the
defective wheel and screw the filling hose 2
of the sealant bottle onto the valve.
5. Ensure that the compressor is switched off.
6. Insert connector 5 into the lighter socket/
socket in the passenger compartment, refer
to page
115 .
7. When the engine is running:
Switch on the compressor and let it run for
approx. 3 to 8 minutes to fill sealant into
the tire and achieve a tire inflation pressure
of approx. 1.8 bar/26 psi.
While sealant is being filled, the inflation
pressure may intermittently rise to approx.
5 bar/73 psi. Do not switch off the com‐
pressor in this phase.
8. Switch off the compressor.
Do not allow the compressor to run too
long
Do not allow the compressor to run longer than
10 minutes; otherwise, the device will overheat
and may be damaged.
◀
If an air pressure of 1.8 bar/26 psi is not
reached:
1. Unscrew the filling hose 2 from the wheel
and drive forward and back approx.
33 ft/10 m to evenly distribute the sealant
in the tire.
2. Inflate the tire again using the compressor.
If the inflation pressure of 1.8 bar/26 psi is still
not reached, the tire is too heavily damaged.
Contact the nearest service center.
Stowing the Mobility System
1. Unscrew the filling hose 2 of the sealant
bottle from the wheel.
2. Unscrew the compressor connection hose 6
from the sealant bottle.
3. Connect the filling hose 2 of the sealant
bottle with the free connector on the seal‐
ant bottle.
This prevents left-over sealant from escap‐
ing from the bottle.
4. Wrap the empty sealant bottle in suitable
material to avoid dirtying the cargo area.
5. Stow the Mobility System back in the vehi‐
cle.
Distributing the sealant
Drive approx. 3.1 miles/5 km to evenly distrib‐
ute the sealant.
Do not exceed a speed of 50 mph/80 km/h. If
possible, do not drop below a speed of
10 mph/20 km/h.
Correcting the tire inflation pressure
1. After driving approx. 3.1 miles/5 km, or
about 10 minutes, stop in a suitable loca‐
tion.
2. Screw the connection hose 6 of the com‐
pressor directly onto the tire valve.
3. Insert the connector 5 into the power
socket in the passenger compartment.
4. Correct the tire inflation pressure to
1.8 bar/26 psi. When the engine is running:
▷ To increase the inflation pressure:
switch on the compressor. To check the
currently set inflation pressure, switch
off the compressor.
▷ To reduce the inflation pressure: press
the release button 9.
