WARNING
If you are in flowing traffic, switch on the hazard warning light system and
set up the warning triangle at the prescribed distance! The national legal re-
quirements must be observed. In this way you are not only protecting yourself
but other road users as well.
If the wheel is damaged or in the event of a puncture, park the vehicle as far
away as possible from the flow of traffic. Park on as flat and firm a surface as
possible.
A tyre filled with sealant has the same driving characteristics as a standard
tyre.
Do not drive faster than 80 km/h (50 mph).
Avoid accelerating at full throttle, sharp braking and fast cornering.
Check the tyre inflation pressure after driving for 10 minutes!
The sealant is hazardous to heath. Remove immediately if it comes into con-
tact with the skin.
For the sake of the environment
Used sealant or sealant whose expiry date has passed must be disposed of in ac-
cordance with environmental protection regulations.
Note
Observe the manufacturer's usage instructions for the breakdown kit.
A new bottle of sealant can be purchased from ŠKODA Original Accessories.
Immediately replace the wheel that was repaired using the breakdown kit or
consult a specialist garage about repair possibilities.
