& WARNING Risk of accident from driving
with sealed tyres
A tyre temporarily sealed with tyre sealant
impairs the handling characteristics and is
not suitable for higher speeds.
Adapt your driving style accordingly and
#
drive carefully.
Do not exceed the maximum speed
#
limit with a tyre that has been repaired
using tyre sealant.
Observe the maximum permissible speed for
#
a tyre sealed with tyre sealant 80 km/h.
Affix the upper section of the TIREFIT sticker
#
to the instrument cluster in a location where
it will be easily seen by the driver.
* NOTE Staining from leaking tyre sealant
After use, excess tyre sealant may leak out
from the filling hose.
Therefore, place the filling hose in the
#
plastic bag that contained the TIREFIT
kit.

ENVIRONMENTAL NOTE Environmental
pollution caused by environmentally irre‐
sponsible disposal

#
compressor and the warning triangle.
Pull away immediately.

130 kPa (1.3 bar).
