Tire Sealant, Expiration Date

Tire sealant in the bottle has a limited storage life.

Therefore, the expiration date is indicated on the bottle -arrow-.

Replace tire sealant when minimum shelf life date has been reached (tire sealant must not be older than 4 years).

If the bottle was opened, for example, for a punctured tire, it must also be replaced.

Observe the disposal regulations.

Tire Sealant, Disposal

Tire sealant or residue from it must not be mixed with other wastes/fluids

Accumulating fluid residue from tire sealant must be collected and placed in a plastic container. The plastic containers can be sent for recycling together with the tire sets (if the expiration date has passed).

The return or recycling can take place using the existing workshop disposal systems

Check with the company responsible for trash pickup for the dealership.
