ri se toappr oximately 500 kPa (5 bar/73 psi).
Do not switch off the ty reinflation compres‐
sor during this phase! #
Let the tyre inflation compressor runfo r a
maximum of ten minu tes.
The tyre should then ha veattained a tyre
pressure of at least 200 kPa (2.0 bar/
29 psi).
If tyre 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 tyre sealant on your clo thing, ha veit
cleaned as soon as possible with per chloroe thy‐
lene.

WARNING Risk of accident due tothe
specified tyre pressure not being
attained
If th e minimum tyre pressure is not reached
af te rth e specified time, the tyre is too badly
damaged. The tyre sealant cannot repair the
tyre in this ins tance.
The braking and driving characteristics may
be great lyimpaired. #
Do not continue driving. #
