What to do in an emergency
IF YOU HAVE A FLAT TIRE (WITH TIREMOBILITYKIT, IF EQUIPPED)
Please read the instructions before
using the TireMobilityKit.
(1) Compressor
(2) Sealant bottle
Introduction
With the TireMobilityKit you stay mobile
even after experiencing a tire puncture.
The system of compressor and seal-
ing compound effectively and comfort-
ably seals most punctures in a pas-
senger car tire caused by nails or sim-
ilar objects and reinflates the tire.
After you ensured that the tire is prop-
erly sealed you can drive cautiously
on the tire (up to 200 km (120 miles))
at a max. speed of 80 km/h (50 mph)
in order to reach a vehicle or tire deal-
er to have the tire replaced.
It is possible that some tires, especially
with larger punctures or damage to the
sidewall, cannot be sealed completely.
Air pressure loss in the tire may
adversely affect tire performance.
For this reason, you should avoid
abrupt steering or other driving
maneuvers, especially if the vehicle is
heavily loaded or if a trailer is in use.
The TireMobilityKit is not designed or
intended as a permanent tire repair
method and is to be used for one tire
only.
This instruction shows you step by
step how to temporarily seal the
puncture simply and reliably.
Read the section "Notes on the safe
use of the TireMobilityKit".

WARNING
Do not use the TireMobilityKit if
a tire is severely damaged by
driving run flat or with insuffi-
cient air pressure.
Only punctured areas located
within the tread region of the
tire can be sealed using the
TireMobilityKit.
Damage to the sidewall must
not be repaired due to safety rea-
sons.
