roadside. To reduce the risk of serious injury,
consider the following:
●
Stop the vehicle safely as soon as possible.
Park it at a safe distance from surrounding

Ensure the ground on which you park is flat
and solid.

All passengers and particularly children
must keep a safe distance from the work

other road users.
●
Always stop the engine, apply the elec-
tronic parking brake and put it in gear if fitted
with a manual gearbox, or press the parking
lock button P if fitted with an automatic gear
box, to reduce the risk of involuntary move-
ment of the vehicle .
●
Use the tyre mobility system only if you
are familiar with the necessary procedures.
Otherwise, you should seek professional as-
sistance.
●
The tyre mobility set is intended for tempo-
rary emergency use only until you can reach
the nearest specialised workshop.
●
Replace the repaired tyre with the tyre mo-
bility set as soon as possible.
●
The sealant is a health hazard and must be
cleaned immediately if it comes into contact
with the skin.
●
Always keep the tyre mobility set out of the
reach of small children.

ed with sealant does not have the
same performance properties as a conven-
tional tyre.

Avoid heavy acceleration, hard braking
and fast cornering.
●
Drive for only 10 minutes at a maximum
speed of 80 km/h (50mph) and then check
