Repairing a flat tire
Precautions in case of a flat tire:
Stop the vehicle as far as possible
from passing traffic; switch on the
hazard warning flashers.
Turn the steering wheel to the straight-
ahead position and engage the steering
lock. Shift into 1st or reverse and
engage the parking brake.
All passengers should be outside the
vehicle and well away from your imme-
diate working area (behind a guardrail,
for instance).
If a warning triangle or portable hazard
warning lamp is available, set it up on
the roadside at an appropriate distance
from the rear of the vehicle.
Comply with all safety guidelines and
regulations.<
M Mobility system
With the BMW M3, you will find an M
Mobility system for fixing flat tires. With
the aid of this system, you can apply a
liquid sealant to the inside of the tire,
thereby sealing off the damaged area,
and then continue driving.
The M Mobility system makes trans-
porting a spare wheel superfluous,
thereby reducing the amount of weight
you have to carry around.
Using the M Mobility system
To repair a flat tire using the M Mobility
system, proceed as follows:
> Prepare the M Mobility system for
use, refer to the next column
> This is part of the M Mobility system,
refer to page 127
> Filling with sealant, refer to page 127
> Distributing sealant, refer to
page 128
> Inflating tire to correct pressure, refer
to page 129.
Preparing the M Mobility system
for use
The M Mobility System is located in the
luggage compartment under the floor
panel:
1. Lift up the floor panel
2. Loosen the M Mobility system from
its storage location.
Before you use the M Mobility
system, read the warnings and
danger notices on the device care-
fully.<
If possible, leave the foreign object in
the tire.
Pull off the sticker 5 (refer to the second
column on the right) for the speed limit
and apply it to the steering wheel.
