BMW 7 Series: Mobility System- Checking and adjusting the tire
inflation pressure
Checking
- Switch off the compressor.
- Read the tire inflation pressure on the tire
pressure gage.
To continue the trip, a tire inflation pressure of at
least 2 bar must be reached.
Removing and stowing the sealant
container
- Unscrew the filling hose of the sealant container
from the tire valve.
- Press the red unlocking device.
- Remove the sealant container from the compressor.
- Wrap and store the sealant container in suitable
material to avoid dirtying the cargo area.
Minimum tire inflation pressure is not reached
- Pull the connector out of the power socket
inside the vehicle.
- Drive 33 ft/10 m forward and back to distribute
the sealant in the tire.
- Screw the connection hose of the compressor
directly onto the tire valve stem.

- With standby state switched on or the engine
running, switch on the compressor.
When the tire pressure does not reach at
least 2 bar, contact a manufacturer service
center or another qualified service center or
repair shop.
When a tire pressure of at least 2 bar is
reached, see Minimum tire inflation pressure
is reached.
- Unscrew the connection hose of the compressor
from the tire valve.
- Pull the connector out of the power socket
inside the vehicle.
- Stow the Mobility System in the vehicle.
Minimum tire inflation pressure is
reached
- Unscrew the connection hose of the compressor
from the tire valve.
- Pull the connector out of the power socket
inside the vehicle.
- Stow the Mobility System in the vehicle.
- Immediately drive approx. 5 miles/10 km to
ensure that the sealant is evenly distributed in
the tire.
Do not exceed a speed of 50 mph/80 km/h.
If possible, do not drive at speeds less than
12 mph/20 km/h.
Adjustment
- Stop at a suitable location.
- Screw the connection hose of the compressor
directly onto the tire valve stem.

- Correct the tire inflation pressure to at least
2.0 bar:
- Increase tire inflation pressure: with
standby state switched on or the engine
running, switch on the compressor.
- Reduce tire inflation pressure: press the
button on the compressor.
- Unscrew the connection hose of the compressor
from the tire valve.
- Pull the connector out of the power socket
inside the vehicle.
- Stow the Mobility System in the vehicle.
Continuing the trip
Do not exceed the maximum permissible speed
of 50 mph/80 km/h.
Reinitialize the Flat Tire Monitor.
Reset the Tire Pressure Monitor again.
Replace the nonworking tire and the sealant container
of the Mobility System promptly.
