Repairing a flat tire
Safety measures
Park the vehicle as far away as possible
from passing traffic and on solid ground.
Switch on the hazard warning system.
Secure the vehicle against rolling away by
setting the parking brake.
Turn the steering wheel until the front
wheels are in the straight-ahead position
and engage the steering wheel lock.
Have all vehicle occupants get out of the
vehicle and ensure that they remain out‐
side the immediate area in a safe place,
such as behind a guardrail.
If necessary, set up a warning triangle at an
appropriate distance.
Mobility System
Concept
With the Mobility System, minor tire damage
can be sealed temporarily to enable continued
travel. To accomplish this, sealant is pumped
into the tires, which seals the damage from the
inside.
The compressor can be used to check the tire
inflation pressure.
General information
Follow the instructions on using the Mobi‐
lity System found on the compressor and
sealant container.
Use of the Mobility System may be ineffec‐
tive if the tire puncture measures approx.
1/8 inches/4 mm or more.
Contact a dealer’s service center or an‐
other qualified service center or repair
shop if the tire cannot be made drivable.
If possible, do not remove foreign bodies
that have penetrated the tire.
Pull the speed limit sticker off the sealant
container and apply it to the steering
wheel.
The use of a sealant can damage the TPM
wheel electronics. In this case, have the
electronics checked at the next opportu‐
nity and have them replaced, if needed.
Storage
The Mobility System is in the left storage com‐
partment of the cargo area.
