Tyre repair
After inserting the sealant residue in the tyre,
you must again check the t
yre pressure about
10 minutes after starting the engine.
You should only use the tyre mobility set if the
vehicle is parked in a safe place, you are famil-
iar with the procedure and you have the nec-
essary tyre mobility set. Otherwise, you should
seek professional assistance.
Do not use the tyre sealant in the following
cases:
If the wheel rim has been damaged.
In outside temperatures below -20°C (-4°F).
In the event of cuts or perforations in the tyre
greater than 4 mm.
If you have been driving with very low pres-
sure or a completely flat tyre.
If the sealant bottle has passed its use by
date.
WARNING
Using the puncture repair kit can be danger-
ous, par
ticularly when filling the tyre on the
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
trac to fill the tyre.
Ensure the ground on which you park is flat
and solid.
All passengers and particularly children
must keep a safe distance from the work
area.
Turn on the hazard warning lights to warn
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.
WARNING
A tyre fill
ed with sealant does not have the
same performance properties as a conven-
tional tyre.
Never drive faster than 80km/h (50mph).
Avoid heavy acceleration, hard braking
and fast cornering.
Drive for only 10 minutes at a maximum
speed of 80 km/h (50mph) and then check
the tyre.
For the sake of the environment
Dispose of used or expired sealant observing
any l
egal requirements.
Note
A new bottle of sealant can be purchased at
SEAT dealerships.
Note
Take into account the separate instruction
manual pr
ovided by the tyre mobility system
manufacturer.
