Do not switch off the tyre inflation compressor
during this phase!
Let the tyre inflation compressor run for a
#
maximum of ten minutes.
The tyre should then have attained a tyre pres-
sure of at least 200 kPa (2.0 bar/29 psi).
If tyre sealant leaks out, make sure you clean the
affected area as quickly as possible. It is prefera-
ble to use clean water.
If you get tyre sealant on your clothing, have it
cleaned as soon as possible with perchloroethy-
lene.
If, after ten minutes, a tyre pressure of 200 kPa
(2.0 bar/29 psi) has not been attained:
Switch off the tyre inflation compressor.
#
Unscrew the filling hose from the valve of the
#
defective tyre.
Please note that tyre sealant may leak out when
unscrewing the filling hose.
Drive forwards or in reverse very slowly for
#
approximately 10 m.
Pump up the tyre again.
#
After a maximum of ten minutes the tyre pres-
sure must be at least 200 kPa (2.0 bar/
29 psi).
& WARNING Risk of accident due to the
specified tyre pressure not being attained
If the specified tyre pressure is not attained
after the specified time, the tyre is too badly
damaged. The tyre sealant cannot repair the
tyre in this instance.
The braking and driving characteristics may be
greatly impaired.
Do not continue driving.
#
Consult a qualified specialist workshop.
#
If, after ten minutes, a tyre pressure of 200 kPa
(2.0 bar/29 psi) has been attained:
Switch off the tyre inflation compressor.
#
Unscrew the filling hose from the valve of the
#
defective tyre.

& 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 of
#
80 km/h for a tyre sealed with tyre sealant.
* 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.
