Tyre Bursting/Leakage

If a tyre bursts or leaks while driving, hold
the steering wheel tightly with both hands
and try to keep it from steering on it own.
Press the brake pedal lightly to slow down,
so that the vehicle can continue moving
straight. Drive slowly to a safe area and
stop. Replace the tyre or contact any rescue
service as needed.
WARNING!
When repairing or replacing tyres
on a public road, turn on the hazard
warning light, wear the reflective vest,
and position the warning triangle in
a suitable place behind the vehicle
as specified by local laws and
regulations.
CAUTION!
Do not continue driving on flat tyres,
as this may seriously damage them.

Repairing Tyres

Repair tyres with the tyre sealant when:
A nail stuck into the tread causes the flat
tyre.
The tread puncture is smaller than 6mm.
WARNING!
The tyre sealant is highly flammable
and harmful to health. Open flames
are to be avoided, and smoking is
prohibited when using the sealant.
Prevent the tyre sealant from coming
into contact with skin, eyes and
clothing. Keep it out of the reach of
children.
If the tyre sealant comes into contact
with skin or eyes, immediately wash
the affected part with abundant water
and seek medical advice at once.
If any allergic reaction is observed
after coming into contact with the
tyre sealant, seek medical advice
immediately.
Tyre Repair
1. Park the vehicle in a flat and safe place,
rotate the area of the tyre leak as close to
the ground as possible, and remove the
tyre valve cap.
2. Remove the speed limit label from the
side of the inflator pump and place it on
the steering wheel where it can be easily
seen.
3. Remove the sealant inlet cover and inject
the tyre sealant into the inlet.
