If the inflation pressure of 1.8 bar/26 psi is still
not reached, the tire is too heavily damaged.
Contact the nearest service center.
Stowing the Mobility System
1. Unscrew the filling hose 2 of the sealant
bottle from the wheel.
2. Unscrew the compressor connection hose 6
from the sealant bottle.
3. Connect the filling hose 2 of the sealant
bottle with the free connector on the seal‐
ant bottle.
This prevents left-over sealant from escap‐
ing from the bottle.
4. Wrap the empty sealant bottle in suitable
material to avoid dirtying the cargo area.
5. Stow the Mobility System back in the vehi‐
cle.
Distributing the sealant
Drive approx. 3.1 miles/5 km to evenly distrib‐
ute the sealant.
Do not exceed a speed of 50 mph/80 km/h. If
possible, do not drop below a speed of
10 mph/20 km/h.
Correcting the tire inflation pressure
1.
After driving approx. 3.1 miles/5 km, or
about 10 minutes, stop in a suitable loca‐
tion.
2. Screw the connection hose 6 of the com‐
pressor directly onto the tire valve.
3. Insert the connector 5 into the power
socket in the passenger compartment.
4. Correct the tire inflation pressure to
1.8 bar/26 psi. When the engine is running:
▷ To increase the inflation pressure:
switch on the compressor. To check the
currently set inflation pressure, switch
off the compressor.
▷ To reduce the inflation pressure: press
the release button 9.
Do not allow the compressor to run too
long
Do not allow the compressor to run longer than
10 minutes; otherwise, the device will overheat
and may be damaged.◀
If the inflation pressure is not maintained, take
the vehicle on another drive, distributing the
sealant, refer to page 221. Then repeat steps
1 to 4 once.
If the inflation pressure of 1.8 bar/26 psi is still
not reached, the tire is too heavily damaged.
Contact the nearest service center.
Continuing the trip
Note the maximum speed
Do not exceed the maximum speed of
50 mph/80 km/h; otherwise, accidents can oc‐
cur.◀
Replace the defective tire as soon as possible
and have the wheel balanced.
Have the Mobility System refilled.
Snow chains
Only certain fine-link snow chains have been
tested by MINI, classified as safe for use, and
recommended. Consult your service center for
more information.
Use only in pairs on the front wheels, equipped
with tires of the following size:
▷ 175/65 R 15 M+S
▷ 175/60 R 16 M+S
John Cooper Works:
▷ 185/50 R 17 86 H M+S XL RSC
Observe the manufacturer's instructions when
mounting snow chains. Do not exceed a speed
of 30 mph or 50 km/h when using snow chains.
Do not initialize the Flat Tire Monitor if snow
chains are mounted; otherwise, the instrument
might issue an incorrect reading. When driving
with snow chains, it may be useful to tempora‐
