You can use the breakdown set (tyre mobility set) to safely seal any tyre damage caused by foreign bodies or punctures (up to 4 mm in diameter). Do not remove foreign objects (e.g. screws or nails) from the tyre!
Once the sealant has been added to the tyre, the tyre pressure must be checked again after approximately 10 minutes of driving.
Seek expert assistance if more than one vehicle tyre is damaged. The breakdown set is only designed for filling one tyre.
Only use the breakdown set if the car is parked in a safe place, you are familiar with the required actions and safety procedures, and you have access to the correct breakdown set. Seek expert assistance if this is not the case.
