Skoda Fabia: Tyre repair

Skoda Fabia Owners Manual

Use the breakdown kit to reliably repair tyre damage caused by foreign bodies or a puncture with diameters up to approx. 4 mm.

A repair made using the breakdown kit is never intended to replace a permanent repair on the tyre. Its purpose is to get you to the nearest specialist garage.

The wheel need not be removed during the repair.

Do not remove foreign bodies, e.g. screws or nails, from the tyre.

The breakdown kit must not be used under the following circumstances.

  • There is damage to the rim
  • The outside temperature is less than -20 °C.
  • The tears or punctures are greater than 4 mm in size.
  • There is damage to the tyre wall.
  • Driving with very low tyre pressure or with a completely flat tyre.
  • If the use-by-date (see inflation bottle) has passed.

WARNING

  • A tyre filled with sealant has the same driving characteristics as a standard tyre.
  • Do not travel faster than 80 km/h.
  • Avoid accelerating at full throttle, sharp braking and fast cornering.
  • Check the tyre pressure after driving for 10 minutes.
  • The sealant is hazardous to heath. Remove immediately if it comes into contact with the skin.

For the sake of the environment

Used sealant or sealant whose expiry date has passed must be disposed of in accordance with environmental protection regulations.

Note

  • Observe the manufacturer's usage instructions for the breakdown kit.
  • A new bottle of sealant can be purchased from ŠKODA Original Parts.
  • Immediately replace the wheel that was repaired using the breakdown kit or consult a specialist garage about repair possibilities.
