Tyre sealant
The tyre sealant can be used to seal small cuts,
especially in the tyre tread.
Sealing the tyre with tyre sealant is only an
emergency repair so that you can drive to the next
workshop. Tyres repaired with sealant must be
used only over short distances and in emergen-
cies.
You can find tyre sealant and a compressor with
pressure tester in the tool box in the luggage
compartment.
The tyre sealant comprises:
– a filler bottle
– a filler hose
– a valve turner
– a spare valve insert and
– a sticker denoting the maximum permissible
speed for the driver's field of vision.
Danger!
Risk of accident.
f Use the tyre sealant only in the case of cuts or
punctures no larger than 4 mm.
f Never use the tyre sealant if the rim is
damaged.
