WARNING Risk of accident when using
tire sealant.
In thefo llowing situations, the tire sealant is
unable toprov ide suf ficient breakdown assis‐
ta nce, as it is unable toseal the tire properly:
RThere are cuts or punctures in the tire
larger than those pr eviously mentioned.
RThe wheel rim is dama ged.
RYo u ha vedriven at a very low tire pres‐
sure or on a flat tire.
#Do not continue driving.
#Consult a qualified specialist workshop.

WARNING Risk of injury and poisoning
from tire sealant
The tire sealant is harmful and causes ir rita ‐
tion. Do not allow it tocome into contact

tion compressor running too long
#Do not runth e tire inflation compressor
fo r longer than ten minu tes without
inter ruption.
Comply with the manufacturer's saf etyno tes on

#Switch the ignition on.
#Press on and off switch 3onthe tire infla‐
tion compressor.
The tire inflation compressor is switched on.
The tire is inflated. Fir st, tire sealant is pum‐
ped into the tire. The pressure may brief ly
ri se toappr oximately 500 kPa (5 bar/73 psi).
Do not switch off the tire inflation compres‐
sor du ring this phase.
#Let the tire inflation compressor runfo r a
maximum of ten minu tes.
The tire should then ha veattained a tire
pressure of at least 200 kPa (2.0 bar/
29 psi).
If tire sealant leaks out, make sure you clean the
af fected area as quickly as possible. It is prefera‐
ble touse clean water.
If yo uge t tire sealant on your clo thing, ha veit
cleaned as soon as possible with per chloroe thy‐
lene. If, af
terte n minutes, a tire pressure of
200 kPa (2.0 bar/29 psi) has not been
re ached:
#Switch off the tire inflation compressor.
#Un scr ew thefilling hose from theva lve of the
defective tire.
Please no tethat tire sealant may leak out when
unscr ewing thefilling hose.
#Ve ry slowly drive forw ard or reve rse appr ox‐
imately 33 ft(10 m).
#Pump up the tire again.
Af ter a maximum of ten minu testh e tire
pressure must be at least 200 kPa (2.0 bar/
29 psi).
& WARNING Risk of accident due tothe
specified tire pressure not being reached
If th e specified tire pressure is not reached
af te rth e specified time, the tire is too badly
damaged. The tire sealant cannot repair the
tire in this ins tance.

WARNING Risk of accident from driving
wi th sealed tires
A tire temp orarily sealed with tire sealant
impairs the handling characteristics and is
not suitable for higher speeds.
#Ad apt your dr ivingst yle according lyand
drive carefull y.
#Do notexceed the specified maximum
speed with a tire that has been repaired
using tire sealant.
#Obser vethe maximum permissible speed for
a tire sealed with tire sealant 50 mph

WARNING Risk of accident due tothe
specified tire pressure not being reached
If th e specified tire pressure is not reached
af te r a brief drive, the tire is too badly dam‐
aged. The tire sealant cannot repair the tire
in this ins tance.
Dama ged tires and tire pressure that is too
low can significantly impair the braking prop‐
erties and the handling characteristics.
#Do not continue driving.
#Consult a qualified specialist workshop.
