If the prescribed tyre pressure is not
reached within 10 minutes, remove the
tyre repair kit. Move the vehicle by one
tyre rotation. Attach the tyre repair kit
again and continue the filling
procedure for 10 minutes. If the
prescribed tyre pressure is still not
reached, the tyre is too damaged to
repair. Contact a workshop. Drain excess tyre pressure with the
button over the pressure indicator.
Do not run the compressor for more
than 10 minutes - see "Important
information" 3145.

check tyre pressure. Screw the
compressor air hose directly onto the
tyre valve (see Fig. 15798 T).
