tion compressor.
The tire inflation compressor is switched on.
The tire is inflated. First, tire sealant is pum‐
ped into the tire. The pressure may briefly
rise to approximately 500 kPa (5 bar/73 psi).
Do not switch off the tire inflation compres‐
sor during this phase.
Let the tire inflation compressor run for a
#
maximum of eight minutes.
The tire should then have attained a tire
pressure of at least 180 kPa (1.8 bar/26 psi).
If tire 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 tire sealant on your clothing, have it
cleaned as soon as possible with perchloroethy‐
lene.
If a tire pressure of 180 kPa (1.8 bar/26 psi)
has not been attained after eight minutes:
Switch off the tire inflation compressor.

After a maximum of eight minutes the tire
pressure must be at least 180 kPa (1.8 bar/
26 psi).
& WARNING Risk of accident due to the
specified tire pressure not being ach‐
ieved
If the specified tire pressure is not achieved
after the specified time, the tire is too badly
damaged. The tire sealant cannot repair the
tire in this instance.
Damaged tires and a tire pressure that is too
low can significantly impair braking and han‐
dling characteristics.
Do not drive on.
