If you have a flat tyre (with Tyre Mobility Kit)

  1. Sealant bottle

  2. Compressor

The Tyre Mobility Kit can be provided either in the luggage room compartment or as a pouch in the tailgate or side trim.

The Tyre Mobility Kit is not designed or intended as a permanent tyre repair method and is to be used for one tyre only.

The system with compressor and sealing compound seals most tyre punctures caused by nails or similar objects and reinflates the tyre. However, larger punctures or sidewall damage cannot be sealed completely.

After ensuring that the tyre is properly sealed, you can drive cautiously on the tyre (for a distance of up to 200 km (120 miles)) at maximum speed of 80 km/h (50 mph) in order to reach a service station or a tyre dealer to have the tyre replaced.

Avoid abrupt steering or other driving manoeuvres if the vehicle is heavily loaded or if a trailer is in use.

Refer to More Details.

WARNING
  • Do not use the Tyre Mobility Kit to repair punctures in the tyre walls. This can result in an accident due to tyre failure.

  • Have your tyre repaired as soon as possible. The tyre may lose air pressure at any time after inflating with the Tyre Mobility Kit.

  • Do not use the TMK if a tyre is severely damaged by driving run flat or with insufficient air pressure. Only punctured areas located within the tread region of the tyre can be sealed using the TMK.

  • Do not use the Tyre sealant after the sealant has expired (i.e. past the expiration date on the sealant container). This can increase the risk of tyre failure.

  • Keep the sealant out of reach of children, avoid sealant contact with eyes and do not swallow the sealant.

CAUTION

When two or more tyres are flat, do not use the tyre mobility kit because the supported one sealant of Tyre Mobility Kit is only used for one flat tyre.
