Using the M Mobility System
Return the M Mobility System to its storage
location in the vehicle.
To repair a flat tire with the M Mobility System,
proceed as follows:
Distributing the sealant
>
>
>
Fill the sealant, refer to page 238.
Immediately drive approx. 2 miles/3 km to
evenly distribute the sealant in the tire.
Distribute the sealant, refer to page 238.
Produce the tire inflation pressure, refer to
page 238.
Do not exceed a speed of 35 mph/
60
km/h. If possible, do not fall below a
speed of 12 mph/20 km/h.<
Filling the sealant
Strictly follow the specified sequence,
otherwise the sealant may escape under
high pressure.<

After driving approx. 2 miles/3 km, stop at a
suitable location.
1.
2.
Shake the sealant bottle.
Connect connection hose 9 of the com-
pressor directly to the tire valve.
Screw connection hose 9 onto the connec-
tor of the sealant bottle.
Insert connector 3 into the cigarette lighter
socket in the interior of the vehicle.

4.
Ensure that screw 8 on the pressure gauge
is closed.
Adjust the tire inflation pressure to 29 psi/
Unscrew the dust cap from the valve of the
defective wheel and screw filling hose 2 of
the sealant bottle onto the valve.
200
kPa. With the ignition switched on, pro-
ceed as follows:
>
To increase the inflation pressure:
5.
Insert the sealant bottle into the housing of
the compressor so that the bottle is upright.
Switch on the compressor, position I. To
check the current inflation pressure set-
ting, briefly switch off the compressor.
Do not let the compressor run for
more than 10 minutes, otherwise the
device will overheat and may be dam-
aged.<
>
To reduce the inflation pressure: turn
screw 8 on the pressure gauge.
If the inflation pressure is not maintained,
drive the vehicle a second time, refer to
6.
7.
Ensure that the compressor is switched off,
position 0.
Distributing the sealant. Then repeat steps 1 to

Use of the M Mobility System may be ineffec-
tual for tire damage larger than approx. 0.16 in/

mm. Please contact the nearest BMW center,
refer to page 241, or a workshop that works
according to BMW repair procedures with cor-
respondingly trained personnel if the tire can-
not be made roadworthy with the M Mobility
System.<
8.
With the ignition switched on:
Switch on the compressor and let it run for
approx. 3 minutes to fill the sealant. The
inflation pressure of the tire after filling is
unimportant.
The tire inflation pressure must be at least
9.
Switch off the compressor.
29
psi/200 kPa. If it is not, do not continue
10.
Detach the hoses from the sealant bottle
connector and from the tire valve.
