Residue from the tire sealant may come

out of the filler hose after use. This could

cause stains.
Therefore, place the filler hose in the plastic

bag which contained the TIREFIT kit.

H

Environmental note

Have the used tire sealant bottle disposed of

professionally, e.g. at a qualified specialist

workshop.

If a tire pressure of 180 kPa (1.8 bar/26 psi)

has been attained after five minutes:

X

Switch off the tire inflation compressor.

X

Unscrew the filler hose from the valve of

the faulty tire.

X

Stow the tire sealant bottle and the tire

inflation compressor.

X

Pull away immediately.
The maximum speed for a tire sealed with

tire sealant is 50 mph (80 km/h). The upper

part of the TIREFIT sticker must be affixed

to the instrument cluster in the driver's

field of vision.

X

Stop after driving for approximately ten

minutes and check the tire pressure with

the tire inflation compressor.

The tire pressure must now be at least

130 kPa (1.3 bar/19 psi).

G

WARNING

If the required tire pressure is not reached

after driving for a short period, the tire is too

badly damaged. The tire sealant cannot repair

the tire in this instance. Damaged tires and a

tire pressure that is too low can significantly

impair the vehicle's braking and driving

characteristics. There is a risk of accident.
Do not continue driving. Contact a qualified

specialist workshop.

X

Correct the tire pressure if it is still at least

130 kPa (1.3 bar/19 psi) (for the values,

see the Tire and Loading Information

placard on the B-pillar on the driver's side

or tire pressure table on the fuel filler flap).

X

To increase the tire pressure: switch on

the tire inflation compressor.

E

Pressure release button

F

Pressure gauge

X

To reduce the tire pressure: press

pressure release button E on the filler

hose.

X

Stow the tire sealant bottle and the tire

inflation compressor.

X

Drive to the nearest qualified specialist

workshop and have the tire changed there.

X

Have the tire sealant bottle replaced as

soon as possible at a qualified specialist

workshop.

X

Have the tire sealant bottle replaced every

four years at a qualified specialist

workshop.
