General information
WARNINGS
Depending on the type andextent of tyre damage, sometyres can only be partially sealed ornot sealed at all. Loss of tyrepressure can affect vehicle handling,leading to loss of vehicle control.
Do not use the tyre repair kit ifthe tyre has already beendamaged as a result of being drivenunder inflated.
Do not try to seal damage otherthan that located within thevisible tread of the tyre.
Do not try to seal damage to thetyre’s sidewall.
The tyre repair kit seals most tyrepunctures [with a diameter of up tosix millimetres (1/4 inch)] totemporarily restore mobility.
Observe the following rules whenusing the kit:
•Drive with caution and avoidmaking sudden steering ordriving manoeuvres,especially if the vehicle is heavilyloaded or you are towing a trailer.
•The kit will provide you with anemergency temporary repair,enabling you to continue yourjourney to the next vehicle or tyredealer, or to drive a maximumdistance of 200 kilometres(125 miles).

Note:When pumping in the sealantthrough the tyre valve, the pressuremay rise up to 6 bar (87 psi) but willdrop again after about 30 seconds.
WARNING
If you experience heavyvibrations, unsteady steeringbehaviour or noises while driving,reduce your speed and drive withcaution to a place where it is safe foryou to stop the vehicle. Recheck thetyre and its pressure. If the tyrepressure is less than 1.3 bar (19 psi)or if there are any cracks, bumps orsimilar damage visible, do notcontinue driving with this tyre.
Checking the tyre pressure
1.Stop the vehicle after drivingapproximately three kilometres(two miles). Check, and wherenecessary, adjust the pressure ofthe damaged tyre.
2.Attach the kit and read the tyrepressure from the pressure gaugeF.
3.If the pressure of the sealant-filledtyre is 1.3 bar (19 psi) or more,adjust it to the specified pressure.See Technical specifications(page 224).
4.Follow the inflation procedureonce again to top up the tyre.
5.Check the tyre pressure againfrom the pressure gauge F. If thetyre pressure is too high, deflatethe tyre to the specified pressureusing the pressure relief valve B.
6.Once you have inflated the tyre toits correct tyre pressure, movethe compressor switch H toposition 0, remove the powerplug G from the socket, unscrewthe hose C, fasten the valve capand replace the protective cap A.
7.Leave the sealant bottle K in thebottle holder E and store the kitaway safely in its original location.
