After filling with tire sealant

̈ Turn the pressure release screw on

pressure gauge 5 counterclock-
wise and bleed the system.

̈ Turn the key to position 0 in the igni-

tion lock (

୴ page 111).

̈ Pull the electric air pump connector

out of the 12 V socket.

̈ Store the electric air pump, tire seal-

ant bottle 8 with valve core
extractor c and, if used, the warn-
ing triangle and hazard warning
lamps inside the vehicle.

̈ Unscrew and remove angle bracket

2 from valve 7 on tire sealant bot-
tle 8 and screw the valve cap onto
the valve.

check the tire pressure using the
electric air pump, for example.
