that sealant is evenly distributed
in the tyre. After driving approx.
10 km (6 miles) (but no more than

pressure. Screw compressor air
hose directly onto tyre valve and
compressor when doing this.
If tyre pressure is more than 1.3
bar, set it to the correct value
(approx.2.4 bar).
Repeat the procedure until there
is no more loss of pressure.
If the tyre pressure has
fallenbelow 1.3 bar, the vehicle
must not be used. Seek the
assistance of a repairer.

is no longer guaranteed. Pay
attention to storage information on
sealant bottle.
