10.Start the engine.
11.Move the compressor switch Hto position 1.
12.Inflate the tyre for no longer thanseven minutes to an inflationpressure of minimum 1.8 bar(26 psi) and a maximum of3.5 bar (51 psi). Move thecompressor switch H to position0 and check the current tyrepressure with pressure gaugeF.
13.Remove the power plug G fromthe cigar lighter socket orauxiliary power socket.
14.Quickly unscrew the hose Cfrom the tyre valve and replacethe protective cap A. Fasten thevalve cap again.
15.Leave the sealant bottle K in thebottle holder E.

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.

Do not scrub the sidewalls of thetyres when you are parking.
If you have to mount a kerb, do soslowly and approach it with thewheels at right-angles to the kerb.
Examine the tyres regularly for cuts,foreign objects and uneven wear ofthe tread. Uneven wear could meanthat the wheel alignment is outsidespecification.
Check the tyre pressures (includingthe spare) when cold, every twoweeks.
USING WINTER TYRES
CAUTION
Make sure that you use thecorrect wheel nuts for the typeof wheel the winter tyres are fitted to.
If winter tyres are used, make surethat the tyre pressures are correct.See Technical specifications(page 224).
