inflation compressor.
The tyre inflation compressor is switched on.
The tyre is inflated. First, tyre sealant is pum-
ped into the tyre. The pressure may briefly rise
to approximately 500 kPa (5 bar/73 psi).
Do not switch off the tyre inflation compressor
during this phase!
Allow the tyre inflation compressor to run for a
#
maximum ten minutes.
The tyre should then have attained a tyre pres-
sure of at least 200 kPa (2.0 bar/29 psi).
If tyre 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 tyre sealant on your clothing, have it
cleaned as soon as possible with perchloroethy-
lene.
If, after ten minutes, a tyre pressure of 200 kPa
(2.0 bar/29 psi) has not been attained:
Switch off the tyre inflation compressor.

After a maximum of ten minutes the tyre pres-
sure must be at least 200 kPa (2.0 bar/
29 psi).
& WARNING Risk of accident due to the
specified tyre pressure not being attained
If the specified tyre pressure is not attained
after the specified time, the tyre is too badly
damaged. The tyre sealant cannot repair the
tyre in this instance.
The braking and driving characteristics may be
greatly impaired.
Do not continue driving.
#
Consult a qualified specialist workshop.

* NOTE Staining from leaking tyre sealant
After use, excess tyre sealant may leak out
from the filling hose.
Therefore, place the filling hose in the
