Tyres with directional tread pattern
●
Ensure the ground on which you park is flat
and solid.
A directional tread pattern can be identified
by arrows on the sidewall that point in the di-
rection of rotation. Always note the direction
of rotation indicated when fitting the wheel.
This is important so that these tyres can give
maximum grip and avoid excessive noise,
tread wear and aquaplaning.
●
All passengers and particularly children
must keep a safe distance from the work area.
After inserting the sealant residue in the tyre,
you must again check the tyre pressure about
10 minutes after starting the engine.
●
Turn on the hazard warning lights to warn
other road users.
You should only use the tire mobility set if
the vehicle is parked in a safe place, you are
familiar with the procedure and you have the
necessary tire mobility set! Otherwise, you
should seek professional assistance.
●
Use the tyre mobility system only if you are
familiar with the necessary procedures. Oth-
erwise, you should seek professional assis-
tance.
If, in an emergency, you have to mount the
spare wheel so it rotates in the wrong direc-
tion, you must drive extremely carefully. The
tyre will not give optimum performance. This
is particularly important when driving on wet
roads.
●
The tyre mobility set is intended for tempo-
rary emergency use only until you can reach
the nearest specialised workshop.
The tyre sealant must not be used in the
following cases:

To benefit from the advantages of tyres with
this type of tread pattern, the defective tyre
should be replaced as soon as possible so
that all tyres again rotate in the correct direc-

The sealant is a health hazard and must be

cleaned immediately if it comes into contact
with the skin.

In the event of cuts or perforations in the
tyre greater than 4 mm.

Always keep the tire mobility set out of the
reach of small children.

If you have been driving with very low pres-

Never use an equivalent jack, even if it has
been approved for your vehicle.

If the sealant bottle has passed its use by
