flation valve. Never intro-
duce tools of any kind between the

❒insert the pin E-fig. 14in the near-
est 12V current socket and start the
engine. Turn the selector D-fig. 13
anti-clockwise to the repair position.
Activate the kit by pressing the
on/off switch. Inflate the tyre to the
pressure specified in the “Inflation
pressure” paragraph, in the “Technical
Data” chapter.For a more accurate reading, it is
advisable to check the pressure
reading on the pressure gauge F-
fig. 13with the compressor off and
without moving the centre selector
from the repair position;
❒if a pressure of at least 3 bar is not
reached within 10 minutes, detach
the transparent filler pipe from the
valve and switch off the 12V current
pin, then move the vehicle about 10
metres forward to distribute the
sealant liquid inside the tyre and
repeat the inflation operation;
❒if, in this case too, within 10 minutes
of turning the compressor on, a
pressure of at least 3 bar is not
reached, do not start driving again
because the tyre is too damaged and
the quick repair kit is not sufficient in
this situation and it is necessary to
go to a Fiat Dealership;
❒if the tyre reaches the pressure spec-
ified in “Inflation pressure” pressure
in the “Technical Data” chapter,
start driving immediately;
fig. 13F0N0827m
fig. 14F0N0182m
Apply the adhesive label in a
position clearly visible by the
driver as a reminder that the tyre has
been treated with the quick repair
kit. Drive carefully, particularly on
bends. Do not exceed 80 km/h. Do
not accelerate or brake suddenly.
WARNING
❒after driving for about 10 minutes,
stop and check the tyre pressure
again; remember to engage the
handbrake;
❒if, on the other hand, a pressure of at
least 3 bar is reached, restore the cor-
rect pressure recommended in the
“Tyre inflation” paragraph in the
“Technical Data” chapter (with engine
running and handbrake on) and
resume driving;
Stop if the pressure has
dropped to less than 3 bar:
The automatic Fix & Go fast repair
kit cannot work properly if the tyre
is excessively damaged. Go to a Fiat
Dealership.
