How to use the Mobility System repair kit

 

 

1. Shake the sealant canister.

 

 

2. Pull the connecting hose completely out of the compressor housing. Do not kink the hose.

 

 

3. Screw the connecting hose to the connection of the container with the sealant.

 

 

4. Insert the can of sealant into the compressor housing so that it is vertical.

 

 

5. Screw the container filler with sealant onto the valve of the defective wheel.

 

 

6. Insert the connector into the outlet in the car interior with the compressor turned off.

 

 

7. Turn on the compressor while the engine is running.

 

 

Let the compressor run for approx. 3-8 minutes to inject sealant and build up tire pressure approx. 2.5 bar. When filling with sealant, the pressure in the tire may increase for a while by approx. up to 5 bar. Do not turn off the compressor at this stage, but turn off the compressor after 10 minutes.

If the tire pressure does not rise to 2 bar, do the following:

1. Turn off the compressor.
2. Unscrew the filler from the wheel.
3. Drive back and forth for 10 m to evenly distribute the sealant in the tire.
4. Re-inflate the tire with a compressor.
