Actions in the event of a flat tire
Normal tires
1. Identify the damaged tire.
Check the tire pressure in all four tires, for in‐
stance using the tire pressure display of a flat
tire kit.
For tires with special approval: when the tire
pressure in all four tires is correct, the Tire
Pressure Monitor may not have been reset. In
this case, perform the reset.
If tire damage cannot be found, contact a
dealer's service center or another qualified
service center or repair shop.
2. Repair the flat tire, e.g., with a flat tire kit or by
changing the wheel.
Use of sealing compound, for instance from the
flat tire kit, may damage the wheel electronics.
