IMPORTANT Do not use inner tubes with tubeless tyres.
Check the inflation pressure of the tyres and the space-

IMPORTANT You will need to change the set of bolts if
you want to change the type of wheels fitted (alloy rims
instead of steel rims, and vice versa).The whole set of fas-
tening bolts must be replaced by another set of suitably
sized bolts and use a special space-saving wheel having dif-
ferent building characteristics.
You should keep the bolts and space-saving wheel in case
you decide to use the original type of wheel later on.

Tyre side wall holes and punctures cannot
be repaired. Do not use the quick repair
kit if the tyre is damaged as the vehicle has run on
a flat tyre.
WARNING
If the wheel rim is damaged (bad groove
distortion causing air leakage) it cannot
be repaired. Do not remove the foreign body
(screws or nails) from the tyre.
WARNING
PLEASE REMEMBER THAT:
The sealing fluid of the quick tyre repair kit is effective with
external temperatures between −20 °C and +50 °C.
The sealing fluid has a limited life.
Never not operate the compressor for
longer than 20 consecutive minutes. Risk
of overheating. The quick repair kit is not suitable
for definitive repairs. Tyres may only be repaired
temporarily.
WARNING
The bottle contains ethylene glycol. It con-
tains latex that might cause allergic reac-
tions. It is harmful if swallowed. It is irritant for the
eyes in case of contact. It may cause sensitisation
by inhalation or contact. Avoid contact with your
eyes, skin and clothes. In the event of contact, wash
immediately with plenty of water. Do not induce
vomit if swallowed. Rinse your mouth and drink
plenty of water. Call a doctor immediately. Keep
away from children. The product must not be used
by asthmatics. Do not inhale the vapours during in-
sertion and suction. Call a doctor immediately if al-
lergic reactions are noted. Store the bottle in the

disconnect the connection A-fig. 139;
❒
turn the bottle counter-clockwise to replace and raise
it;
❒
fit the new bottle and turn it clockwise;
❒
secure the connection A to the bottle and fit the trans-
parent tube B in the relevant compartment.
Absolutely inform the dealership that the
tyre has been repaired using the quick tyre
repair kit. Hand the instruction brochure over to
the personnel charged with treating the tyre re-

FOR CHECKING AND RESTORING PRESSURE
ONLYThe compressor can be also used just for restoring pres-
