FAQs
Is this a permanent tyre repair solution?
No, the ContiMobilityKit provides a temporary repair. It is designed to get you safely to a professional tyre service centre for a permanent fix.
How long can I drive on a repaired tyre?
It is recommended to drive slowly and directly to the nearest tyre repair shop. Avoid high speeds and long distances. Consult your vehicle's manual or a tyre professional for specific guidance.
What types of punctures can this kit fix?
The kit is best suited for punctures in the tread area of the tyre caused by small objects like nails or screws.
Can I use this kit for sidewall damage?
No, this kit is not designed for sidewall damage or large cuts, as these areas are not structurally sound for sealant repair.
How do I clean the sealant from the tyre?
The sealant can be difficult to remove completely. It's best to have a professional tyre shop clean the tyre interior during the permanent repair process.
What is the shelf life of the sealant?
The sealant has an expiry date, which is usually printed on the bottle. It's important to check this date periodically and replace the kit if the sealant has expired.
Does the kit come with a refill?
The kit includes a 450ml sealant refill. Once used, a separate refill may be required for future use.
Troubleshooting
Compressor not turning on
Ensure the 12V plug is securely inserted into a working vehicle power outlet. Check the vehicle's fuse for the 12V socket.
Sealant not injecting properly
Verify the hose is tightly connected to the tyre valve. Check if the valve stem is clear and not blocked.
Tyre not inflating to the correct pressure
Ensure the compressor is running continuously. Check for any leaks at the valve connection. The tyre may have damage beyond the kit's repair capability.
Low sealant level in the bottle
The kit is designed for one-time use per puncture event. If the sealant is depleted, a refill may be needed for subsequent uses.
