7. Switch on the compressor with the ON/OFF switch → Fig. 2 6 .

8. Run the compressor until the tyre pressure has reached 2.0 – 2.5 bar (29 – 36 psi/200 – 250 kPa).

9. Switch off the compressor.

If a tyre pressure of 2.0 – 2.5 bar (29 – 36 psi / 200 – 250 kPa) cannot be achieved:

1. Unscrew the tyre filler hose from the tyre valve.

2. Drive (or reverse) the vehicle approximately 10 metres (approximately 33 ft) so that the sealing compound is evenly distributed in

the tyre.

3. Screw the compressor’s tyre filler hose firmly back onto the tyre valve and inflate the tyre again.

4. If the required pressure still cannot be reached, the tyre is too badly damaged. The tyre cannot be sealed with the breakdown set.

Do not drive on → . Seek expert assistance.

Continuing your journey

1. Disconnect the compressor and unscrew the tyre filler hose from the tyre valve.

2. Immediately drive on at a speed of no more than 80 km/h (50 mph) once a tyre pressure of 2.0 – 2.5 bar (29 – 36 psi/200 – 250

kPa) has been reached.

3. Check the tyre pressure after driving for 10 minutes.

Check after driving for 10 minutes

1. Park the vehicle on a firm and level surface at the next safe opportunity, e.g. a car park.

2. Reconnect the tyre filler hose → Fig. 2 1 and read the tyre pressure on the tyre pressure display → Fig. 2 3

1.3 bar (19 psi/130 kPa) and lower:

1.

The tyre cannot be sealed adequately with the breakdown set → . Seek expert assistance.

1.4 bar (20 psi/140 kPa) and higher:

1. Adjust the tyre pressure back to the correct value.

2. Drive carefully to the nearest suitably qualified workshop. Do not exceed a maximum speed of 80 km/h (50 mph). Volkswagen

recommends using an authorised Volkswagen repairer.

3. Have the damaged tyres replaced by a suitably qualified workshop. Volkswagen recommends using an authorised Volkswagen

repairer.

WARNING

The tyre filler hose and compressor can become hot when inflating the tyre and cause burns if touched.

● Protect your hands and skin from hot components.

● Do not place the hot tyre filler hose or the hot compressor on any inflammable materials.

● Allow the tyre filler hose and compressor to cool down before you stow them.

WARNING

If the defective tyre cannot be sealed adequately with the breakdown set, the tyre will lose air when driving.

This can lead to tyre failure, loss of control of the vehicle, accidents, serious injuries and death.

● If the tyre will not inflate to at least 2.0 bar (29 psi/200 kPa), the tyre is too damaged. The sealant is unable to seal the tyre. Do not

drive on and seek expert assistance instead.

● Do not carry on driving if the tyre pressure is 1.3 bar (19 psi/130 kPa) or less after driving for 10 minutes. Seek expert assistance

instead.

The tyre complies with the legal requirements of the USA Department of Transportation,

responsible for tyre safety standards.

Information for the end user concerning comparative values for specified basic tyres (standardised test procedure) :

Relative life expectancy for the tyre, with reference to a US-specific standard test. Tyres

with the specification 280 wear at a rate of 2.8 times more slowly than standard tyres that

TREADWEAR 280

have a treadwear value of 100. The performance of tyres is determined by how they are

used and can significantly deviate from standard values due to driving style, maintenance,

road surface and climatic conditions.

Wet braking performance of the tyre (AA, A, B or C). The wet braking performance is

tested under controlled conditions on certified test tracks. Tyres marked C have a low

traction performance. The traction value assigned to the tyres is based on linear traction

tests and does not include acceleration and lateral stability or aquaplaning and traction

under maximum load.

Temperature stability of the tyre at high speeds on a test bed (A, B or C). A and B tyres

exceed legal requirements. The temperature evaluation is based on tyres with correct

pressure and does not allow for excess pressure. Excessive speed, incorrect pressure or

The tyre labelling is located on both sides. Certain labels may only be found on one side of the tyre, e.g. tyre identification number and

manufacturing date.

Any further numbers and letters are internal codes used by the tyre manufacturer or country-specific codes.

Low-profile tyres

Low-profile tyres have a wider tread surface, larger rim diameter and lower side walls than conventional wheel/tyre combinations.

Low-profile tyres can improve the vehicle’s handling and precision. They may however result in a less comfortable ride on uneven road

surfaces and tracks.

Tyres with directional tread pattern

An arrow on the tyre sidewall indicates the direction of rotation on tyres with directional tread. The direction of rotation must be

observed in all cases. This guarantees the best possible running characteristics.

If, however, the tyre is fitted in the opposite direction to the tread pattern, you must take more care when driving as the tyre is now no

longer being used according to its designation. The tyres must be replaced as quickly as possible or be fitted with the tread in the

correct direction.

Asymmetrical tyres

Asymmetrical tyres take into account the differing behaviour of the inner and outer areas of the tread pattern. The sidewalls of

asymmetrical tyres are marked to indicate "inside" or "outside". Always observe the correct tyre position on the wheel rim.

Tyre load

The load index indicates the maximum load capacity of an individual tyre in kilograms (tyre load).
