Replacing components
132
Wrap the empty sealant bottle in suitable mate-
rial to avoid dirtying the cargo bay. Stow the
Mobility System back in the vehicle.
Distributing the sealant
Immediately drive approx. 3 mls/5 km to evenly
distribute the sealant.
Do not exceed speeds of 50 mph/
80 km/h.
If possible, do not drop below 10 mph/
20 km/h.<
Correcting the tire inflation pressure
1. After driving approx. 3 mls/5 km or ten min-
utes, stop at a suitable location.
2. Screw the connection hose 2 of the com-
pressor directly onto the tire valve.
3. Insert the plug 3 into the power socket in the
vehicle interior.
4. Correct the inflation pressure to 26 psi/
180 kPa. With the engine running:
> To increase the inflation pressure: switch on
the compressor. To check the current infla-
tion pressure, switch off the compressor.
Do not run the compressor for longer
than 10 minutes; otherwise, the
device will overheat and possibly be
damaged.<
> To decrease the inflation pressure: press the
release button 5.
If the tire cannot maintain the inflation
pressure, drive the vehicle again, refer to
Distributing the sealant. Then repeat steps
1to4.
If an inflation pressure of 26 psi/180 kPa still
cannot be reached, the tire is too heavily dam-
aged. Contact the nearest MINI dealer.<
Driving on
Do not exceed the permitted maximum
speed of 50 mph/80 km/h; doing so may
result in an accident.<
Replace the defective tire as soon as possible
and have the new wheel/tire assembly bal-
anced.
Have the Mobility System refilled.
