Adjust the tyre pressure back to the correct value.  
Drive carefully to the nearest suitably qualified workshop. Do not exceed a maximum speed of 80 km/h  
(50 mph).  
Have the damaged tyres replaced by a suitably qualified workshop.  
WARNING  
The tyre filler hose and the air compressor can get hot during inflation.  
Protect your hands and skin from hot components.  
Do not place the hot tyre filler hose and the hot air compressor on any flammable materials.  
Allow the device to cool down completely before stowing it.  
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 carry on driving.  
Do not carry on driving if the tyre pressure is 1.3 bar(19 psi/130 kPa) or lower after driving for 10 minutes.  
Ask a suitably qualified workshop.  
NOTICE  
Switch the air compressor off after a maximum of 8 minutes to avoid overheating. Let the air compressor cool down  
for a few minutes before switching it back on.  
Service work and digital service schedule  
Storing the service operations performed (“digital service schedule”)  
The service records are stored in a central system by a suitably qualified workshop or by your Volkswagen Commercial  
Vehicles partner. This transparent documentation of the service history allows the service operations performed to be  
reproduced at any time. Each time you have your vehicle serviced, Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles recommends  
asking for a printed service record, which contains all service work stored in the system.  
With every service, the printout of the previous service record is replaced by a current printout.  
The digital service schedule is not available in some markets. In this case, your Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles  
dealership will inform you about the service work and documentation of this work.  
Service work  
The following information is documented in the digital service plan by a suitably qualified workshop or by your  
Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles partner:  
Which service was carried out and when.  
Whether any repairs are recommended, such as replacement of the brake pads in the near future.  
Whether you had any special requests before or during the maintenance work. Your service advisor will note these  
on the order.

Which components and service fluids were changed.  
When your next service is scheduled for.  
The LongLife mobility guarantee is valid until the next inspection is due. Documentation takes place at every  
scheduled inspection.  
The type and scope of service work may differ from vehicle to vehicle. Information on specific work for your vehicle  
can be requested from a suitably qualified workshop.  
WARNING  
Inadequate servicing, no servicing at all, or failure to adhere to service intervals can result in breakdowns, accidents  
and serious injury.  
All work should be carried out by a suitably qualified workshop.  
NOTICE  
Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles is not responsible for any vehicle damage caused by inadequate servicing work or  
delays in the supply of parts.  
Regular servicing of your vehicle not only maintains its value, it also ensures that your vehicle remains  
roadworthy and in working order. You should therefore have your vehicle serviced according to the  
Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles guidelines.  
Fixed service or flexible service  
There are two types of service event:oil change service and inspection. The service interval display in the display of  
the instrument cluster serves as a reminder of when the next service event is due.  
Your vehicle will receive eitherfixed service or flexible service during the oil change service, depending on the level of  
equipment, the engine type and the operating conditions.  
The engine codes can be read on the type plate or queried via the service menu (→ Service interval display).  
How do I know which type of service my vehicle needs?  
Information on the service type that applies to the vehicle can be obtained from a suitably qualified workshop.  
Features of the flexible service  
With the flexible service, you only need to have an oil change service carried out if your vehicle requires one.  
Individual operating conditions and personal driving style are taken into account in order to determine this point in  
time. An important feature of the flexible service is the use of LongLife engine oil instead of conventional oil.  
Observe and follow the information on the motor oil specification according to the VW standard (→ Engine oil).  
If you do not wish to have the flexible service, you can opt for the fixed service instead. However, a fixed service can  
affect your service costs. Your service advisor will be pleased to advise you.  
Service interval display  
Service dates are shown in the service interval display in the instrument cluster (→ Service interval display). This  
service interval display provides information on services that include an oil change or inspection. When an individual  
service is due, additional work that is due can also be carried out, e.g. changing brake fluid and spark plugs.
