Vehicles With Tire Mobility Kit

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

Vehicles are equipped with either a spare wheel or a breakdown kit, depending on equipment.

The wheel repair kit is located in the luggage compartment, where the spare tire would be stored if the vehicle was equipped with one. The kit contains a compressor -2- and a bottle of tire sealant -1-.

Tire sealant in the bottle has a limited storage life.

Therefore the minimum shelf life date -arrow- is marked on the bottle -1-.

Replace tire sealant when minimum shelf life date has been reached (tire sealant must not be older than 4 years).

If the bottle was opened, for example, for a punctured tire, it must also be replaced.

Pay attention to the disposal regulations.
