WARNING
Using the tire mobility set on the side of the road can be dangerous. To help reduce the risk of serious personal injury:
x Always stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so and move the vehicle a safe distance off the road where it is safe to use the tire mobility set.

x Never drive with a tire that has cuts or punctures, especially when they are larger than 3/16 in (4 mm).
x Use the tire mobility set only for emergencies until you can get professional help.
x If the tire cannot be inflated to at least 36 psi (250 kPa), do not drive the vehicle. Contact an authorized Volkswagen dealer or Volkswagen service facility for assistance.
x If the tire inflation pressure drops below 26 psi (180 kPa) after driving for 10 minutes, do not drive the vehicle any farther. Contact your an authorized Volkswagen dealer or Volkswagen service facility for assistance.

x Start the electric motor and let it run.
x Insert the cable plug ⇒ fig. 177 (9) into a 12 Volt socket of the vehicle
x Switch the air compressor on using the ON /OFF switch ⇒ fig. 177 (8),
x Let the air compressor run until a pressure of 29 – 36 psi (200 – 250 kPa) is reached ⇒ . Max-
imum run time 8 minutes ⇒ .
x Switch off the air compressor.
x If an air pressure of 29 – 36 psi (200 – 250 kPa) cannot be reached, unscrew the tire inflation hose from the tire valve.
x Drive about 30 feet (10 meters) backwards or forwards so that the sealant can be distributed inside the tire.
x Connect the tire inflation hose of the air compressor again to the tire valve and repeat the inflation process.
x If the required tire pressure still cannot be reached, the tire is too badly damaged. The tire cannot be sealed using the tire mobility set. Do not drive the vehicle. Contact an authorized Volkswagen
dealer or Volkswagen service facility for assistance ⇒ .
x Disconnect the air compressor and unscrew the tire inflation hose from the tire valve.
x If a tire pressure of 29 – 36 psi (200 – 250 kPa) is reached, continue driving right away and drive at a speed of no more than 50 mph (80 km/h).

x Protect hands and skin from hot parts.
x Do not place the hot tire inflation hose or hot air compressor on flammable material.
x Let the equipment cool off almost completely before stowing it.
x If the tire cannot be inflated to at least 36 psi (250 kPa), the damage is too great to be re-paired with the tire mobility set. The sealant is not able to seal the tire. Do not drive the vehi-cle. Contact an authorized Volkswagen dealer or Volkswagen service facility for assistance.
NOTICE
Do not let the compressor run for more than 8 minutes to help prevent overheating and dam-age. Let the compressor cool down for a few minutes before switching it on again. Let it cool down almost completely before stowing it in the repair kit.
