Emergency puncture repair

07

– Undo the air hose (4) from the air valve

and put the dust cap back on. Unplug the

lead (5) from the electrical socket. Fold the

orange-coloured part (7) back into its orig-

inal position and secure the catch (6).

Keep the emergency repair kit in a safe

place in the car.

– Immediately drive about 3 km, at a maxi-

mum speed of 80 km/h, to allow the seal-

ing fluid to seal the tyre well.

Check the tyre pressure again:

– Connect the air hose (4) to the air valve on

the tyre. Connect the lead (5) to the 12 V

power point. Read the pressure on the

compressor. If the tyre pressure is below

1.3 bar, the tyre has not been sufficiently

well sealed. The journey should not be

continued under these circumstances.

Contact a tyre centre.

– If the tyre pressure is higher than 1.3 bar,

the tyre should be pumped up to the

pressure stated on the tyre pressure label,

see p. 158 for its location. Release pres-

sure with the reduction valve (8) if the tyre

pressure is too high.

– Turn off the compressor; the switch (2)

should be in position 0. Detach the air

hose and unplug the lead. Replace the

valve’s dust cap.

– Put the lead (5) and air hose (4) into the

side compartment (3).

– Put the puncture repair kit back under the

floor in the cargo area.

WARNING

Never stand next to the tyre when the com-

pressor is running. Be particularly observ-

ant of the tyre walls. If cracks, irregularities

or other damage appears, turn off the com-

pressor immediately. Under these circum-

stances your journey should not continue.

Contact an authorised tyre centre.

WARNING

You should not drive faster than 80 km/h

after the emergency tyre repair kit has been

used. The temporarily sealed tyre must be

changed as soon as possible (maximum

driving distance: 200 km).

NOTE

Do not raise the orange-coloured part (7)

when only the compressor is to be used for

inflation.

IMPORTANT

The compressor should not run for more

than ten minutes at a time. Let it cool after-

wards as there is a risk of overheating.

NOTE

The canister with sealant and hose should

be replaced after use.
