The tyre inflation compressor is
switched on. The tyre is inflated .

First, tyre sealant i s pumped into the
tyre. The pressure can briefly rise to
approx imately 600 kPa (6 .0 bar/86 psi).
Do not switch off the tyre inflation com-
pressor during this phase.
.,.. Let the tyre inflation compressor run for
a maximum of 15 minutes. The tyre should
then have attained a pressure of at least
180 kPa (1.8 bar/26 psi).
If
a tyre pressure of 180 kPa (1.8 bar/26 psi)
is achieved after a maximum of 15 minutes,
see "Tyre pressure is achieved"
(I>
page 205).
Flat tyres
If a tyre pressure of 180 kPa (1. 8 bar/26 psi)
has not been achi eved after a maximum of
15 minutes, see "Tyre pressur e is not ach-
ieved "
(I>
page 205).

If
the tyre sealant leaks out , allow it to
dry.
It
can then be removed like a layer of
film .
If you get tyre sealant on your clothing,
have it cleaned as soon as possible with
perchloroethylene.
Tyre pressure not reached
If
a tyre pressure of 180 kPa (1.8 bar/26 psi)
has not been achieved after a maximum of
10 minutes:
.,.. Switch off the tyre inflation compressor.
.,.. Unscrew the filler hose from the val ve of
the defective tyre.
.,.. Very slowly drive forwards or reverse
approximately 10 m.
.,.. Pump up the tyre again .
After a maximum of 10 minutes, the tyre
pressure must be at least 180 kPa (1.8 bar 1
26 psi) .
_&
WARNING
If
the required tyre pressure is not reached
after the specified time, the tyre is too
badly damaged. The tyre sealant cannot
repair the tyre in this instance. Damaged
tyres and a tyre pressure that is too l ow can
s ignificantly impair the vehicle 's braking
and driving characterist i cs. There is a
risk of accident.
Do not continue driving. Contact a quali-
fied specialist workshop .
Tyre pressure reached
_&
WARNING
A tyre temporarily sealed with tyre sealant
impairs the driving characteristics and is
not suitable for higher speeds. There is a
risk of accident.
