Repairing flat tire with
M Mobility System
To repair a flat tire, an M Mobility System is pro-
vided in the BMW M6. Using this system you
can apply a sealant in the inside of the tire, seal
off the damaged area, restore the tire inflation
pressure and then continue driving.
Safety measures in case of a breakdown:
Park the vehicle as far as possible from
passing traffic and on solid ground. Switch on
the hazard warning flashers.
Apply the handbrake and shift into first gear or
reverse with the manual transmission, or move
the selector lever into a drive position with the
sequential transmission. Have all vehicle occu-
pants get out of the vehicle and ensure that they
remain outside the immediate area in a safe
place, such as behind a guardrail.
If a warning triangle
* or portable hazard warning
lamp * is required, set it up on the roadside at an
appropriate distance from the rear of the vehi-
cle. Comply with all safety guidelines and regu-
lations.
