Switch off the air compressor.
If a pressure level of 2.0 – 2.5 bar (29 – 36 psi / 200 – 250 kPa) cannot be achieved, unscrew the tyre filler hose from the tyre valve.
Drive (or reverse) the vehicle approximately 10 metres so that the sealing compound is more evenly distributed in the tyre.
Screw the tyre filler hose for the air compressor firmly back onto the tyre valve and inflate the tyre again.
If the required pressure still cannot be reached, the tyre is too badly damaged. The tyre cannot be sealed with the breakdown set. Do not
drive on. Seek expert assistance →
Disconnect the air compressor and unscrew the tyre filler hose from the tyre valve.
Drive the vehicle no faster than 80 km/h (50 mph) once a tyre pressure of 2.0 – 2.5 bar (29 – 36 psi / 200 – 250 kPa) has been reached.
Check the tyre pressure after driving for 10 minutes
WARNING
The tyre filler hose and the air compressor can get hot during inflation.
Protect your hands and skin from the hot components.
Do not place the hot tyre filler hose and the hot air compressor on any inflammable materials.
Allow the device to cool down fully before stowing.
If the tyre will not inflate to at least 2.0 bar (29 psi / 200 kPa), the tyre is too damaged. The sealant is unable to seal the tyre. Do not drive
on. Seek expert assistance.
NOTICE
Switch the air compressor off after a maximum of 8 minutes to avoid overheating. Let the air compressor cool down for a few minutes before
switching it back on.

Reconnect the tyre filler hose
1.3 bar (19 psi / 130 kPa) and lower:
Do not drive on! The tyre cannot be sealed adequately with the breakdown set.
Seek expert assistance → .
1.4 bar (20 psi / 140 kPa) and higher:
Set the tyre pressure back to the correct value
Resume your journey to the nearest qualified workshop. Do not exceed a maximum speed of 80 km/h (50 mph).
The damaged tyre should be replaced at the qualified workshop.
WARNING
Driving with an unsealed tyre is dangerous as it can cause accidents and serious injuries.
Do not carry on driving if the tyre pressure is 1.3 bar (19 psi / 130 kPa) or lower.
