Breakdown set
Introduction
In some countries, the vehicle may be sup-
plied with a breakdown set.
You can use the breakdown set (tyre mobi-
lity set) to safely seal any tyre damage
caused by foreign bodies or punctures up to
around 4 mm (around 5/32 inches) in di-
ameter. Do not remove foreign objects (e.g.
screws or nails) from the tyre!
Once the sealant has been added to the
tyre, the tyre pressure must be checked
and adjusted again
after
approximately
10 minutes of driving.
The breakdown set is only designed to
fill
one tyre. Seek assistance from a suitably
qualified
workshop if more than one vehicle
tyre is damaged.
Only use the breakdown set when the vehi-
cle has been safely parked and you are fa-
miliar with the work and safety precautions
needed! Otherwise, seek assistance from
a suitably
qualified
workshop.
The sealant must not be used in the fol-
lowing situations:
— If the rim is damaged.
— If the outside temperature is below
-20°C (-4°F).
— If there are cuts or punctures in the tyre
that are larger than 4 mm (5/32 in).
— If the vehicle was driven with very low
tyre pressure or a
flat
tyre.
— If the use-by date on the tyre
filler
bottle
has expired.
— If a foreign object has been removed
from the tyre.
— In connection with mobility tyres. The
word “Seal” is on the outer wall of the
tyre if your vehicle is
fitted
with mobility
tyres.
WARNING
Using the breakdown set can be danger-
ous, especially if the tyre is
inflated
at the
roadside. Please note the following steps
in order to reduce the risk of serious inju-
ries:
·
Stop the vehicle as soon as it is possible
and safe to do so. To
inflate
the tyre,
park the vehicle at a safe distance from
moving
traffic

·
Make sure that the surface the vehicle
is parked on is level and
firm.
·
All passengers, and children in particu-
lar, must be at a safe distance and
away from your area of work.
·
Switch on the hazard warning lights to
warn other road users.
·
Only use the breakdown set when the
vehicle has been safely parked and you
are familiar with the work and safety
precautions needed! Otherwise, seek
assistance from a suitably
qualified
workshop.
·
Tyres repaired with the breakdown set
are intended for temporary, emergency
use only. They should be used only until
you can reach the nearest
qualified
workshop.
·
Tyres that have been repaired using the
breakdown set should be replaced as
soon as possible.
·
If your skin comes into contact with the
sealant, wipe it
off
immediately. The
sealant poses a health hazard.
·
Keep the breakdown set out of the
reach of children.
·
When using the breakdown set, never
lift
the vehicle with a jack, even if the
jack is approved for the vehicle.
WARNING
Tyres that have been
filled
with sealant
will not handle in the same way as
a standard tyre.
·
Never drive faster than 80 km/h
(50 mph).
