Anti-puncture kit TMS (Tyre Mobility
System)*
Introduction
The Anti-puncture kit* (Tyre Mobility System) will reliably seal punctures
caused by the penetration of a foreign body of up to about 4 mm in
diameter. Do not remove foreign objects, e.g. screws or nails, from the tyre.
After inserting the sealant residue in the tyre, you must again check the tyre
pressure about 10 minutes after running.
You should only use the tire mobility set if the vehicle is parked in a safe
place, you are familiar with the procedure and you have the necessary tire
mobility set! Otherwise, you should seek professional assistance.
The tyre sealant must not be used in the following cases:
● If the wheel rim has been damaged.
● In outside temperatures below -20 °C (-4 °F).
● In the event of cuts or perforations in the tyre greater than 4 mm.
● If you have been driving with very low pressure or a completely flat tyre.
● If the sealant bottle has passes its use by date.
WARNING
Using the tyre mobility set can be dangerous, especially when filling the
tyre at the roadside. Please observe the following rules to minimise the
risk of injury:
● Stop the vehicle safely as soon as possible. Park it at a safe distance
from surrounding traffic to fill the tyre.
● Ensure the ground on which you park is flat and solid.
Safety
Operation
WARNING (Continued)
● All passengers and particularly children must keep a safe distance
from the work area.
● Turn on the hazard warning lights to warn other road users.
● Use the tyre mobility set only if you are familiar with the necessary
procedures. Otherwise, you should seek professional assistance.
● The tyre mobility set is intended for temporary emergency use only
until you can reach the nearest specialised workshop.
● Replace the repaired tyre with the tire mobility set as soon as possi-
ble.
● The sealant is a health hazard and must be cleaned immediately if it
comes into contact with the skin.
● Always keep the tire mobility set out of the reach of small children.
● Never use the approved jack, even if it has been approved for your ve-
hicle.
● Always stop the engine, apply the handbrake lever firmly and engage
gear if using a manual gearbox, in order to reduce the risk of vehicle in-
voluntary movement.
WARNING
A tyre filled with sealant does not have the same performance properties
as a conventional tyre.
● Never drive faster than 80 km/h (50 mph).
● Avoid heavy acceleration, hard braking and fast cornering.
● Drive only during 10 minutes at a maximum speed of 80 km/h
(50 mph) and subsequently check the tyre.
For the sake of the environment
Dispose of used or expired sealant observing any legal requirements.
