DANGER
If the exhaust pipe is blocked or ventilation is insufficient, harmful exhaust gases can enter into the vehicle. The exhaust gases contain pollutants which are colorless and odorless. In enclosed areas, exhaust gases can also accumulate outside of the vehicle. There is danger to life. Keep the exhaust pipe free and ensure sufficient ventilation.
NOTICE
The compressor can overheat during extended operation. There is a risk of damage to property.
Do not run the compressor for more than 10 minutes.

While the tire is being filled with sealant, the tire inflation pressure may sporadically reach approx.
5 bar. Do not switch off the compressor at this point.
