Vehicle care 189
19. Continue driving immediately so
that the sealant is evenly
distributed throughout the tyre.
After driving approx. 10 km, but no
more than 10 minutes, stop and
check tyre pressure using the
compressor. Screw compressor
air hose directly onto tyre valve
and compressor when doing this.
20. If the tyre pressure is more than
3.1 bar, set it to the correct value.
Repeat the procedure until there
is no more loss of pressure.
If the tyre pressure has fallen
below 3.1 bar, the vehicle must
not be driven. Seek the
assistance of a workshop.
21. Stow tyre repair kit under the front
seat.
Note
The driving characteristics of the
repaired tyre are severely affected,
therefore have this tyre replaced.
If unusual noise is heard or the
compressor becomes hot, turn
compressor off for at least
30 minutes.
The built-in safety valve opens at a
pressure of 7 bar.
Note the expiry date of the kit. After
this date its sealing capability is no
longer guaranteed. Pay attention to
storage information on sealant
bottle.
Replace the used sealant bottle.
Dispose of the bottle as prescribed
by applicable laws.
The compressor and sealant can be
used from approx. -30 °C.
Wheel changing
Some vehicles are equipped with a
tyre repair kit instead of a spare wheel
3 186.
Make the following preparations and
observe the following information:
● Park the vehicle on a level, firm
and non-slippery surface. The
front wheels must be in the
straight-ahead position.
● Apply the parking brake and
engage first gear or reverse gear
(manual transmission) or N
(manual transmission
automated).
● Switch off the air suspension
system 3 126.
● Remove the spare wheel 3 191.
● Never change more than one
wheel at a time.
● Use the jack only to change
wheels in case of puncture, not
for seasonal winter or summer
tyre change.
● The jack is maintenance-free.
