r-"'('n First read and observe the Introductory L-J,.:.U Information and safety warnings & on page 425.
Sealing a tyre
• Unscrew the cap from the tyre valve.
• Use the valve core extractor 302 CD to screw the valve core out of the tyre valve. Place the core on a clean surface.
• Shake the tyre filler bottle 302 ® vigo-rously up and down several times.
• Screw the filler hose 302 @tightly onto the tyre filler bottle in a clockwise direction. The plastic foil on the plug is pierced automatically.
• Remove the plug from the filler hose 302@ and place the open end fully on the tyre valve.
• Hold the bottle upside down and inject the en-tire contents of the tyre filler bottle into the tyre.
• Remove the empty tyre filler bottle from the valve.
• Use the valve core extractor 302 CD to screw the valve core back onto the tyre valve.
Inflating the tyre
• Screw the tyre filler hose 302 ® of the air compressor tightly onto the tyre valve.
• Check that the bleed screw 302 (?) is closed.
• Start the engine and let it run.
• Insert the plug 302 ®into one of the ve-hicle's 12-volt sockets 163.
• Use the on/off switch 302 ®to switch on the air compressor.
• Run the compressor until the tyre pressure has reached 2.0-2.5 bar (29-36 psi I 200-250 kPa) maximum running time is 6 minutes
• Switch off the air compressor.
• If a pressure level of 2.0-2.5 bar (29-36 psi I 200 -250 kPa) cannot be achieved unscrew the tyre filler hose from the tyre valve.
428 I If and when
• Drive (or reverse) the vehicle approximately 1 0 metres so that the sealing compound is more evenly distributed in the tyre.
• Screw the tyre filler hose for the air compressor firmly back onto the tyre valve and inflate the tyre again.
• If the required pressure still cannot be reached, the tyre is too badly damaged. The tyre cannot be sealed with the breakdown set. Do not drive on. Seek expert assistance &.
• Disconnect the air compressor and unscrew the tyre filler hose from the tyre valve.
• Drive the vehicle no faster than 80 km/h (50 mph) once a tyre pressure of 2.0-2.5 bar (29-36 psi I 200-250 kPa) has been reached.
• Check the tyre pressure after driving for 10 mi-nutes 429.
A WARNING
The tyre filler hose and the air compressor can get hot during Inflation.
• Protect your hands and skin from the hot components.
• Do not place the hot tyre filler hose or the hot air compressor on any Inflammable mate-rials.
• Allow the device to cool down fully before stowing.
• If the tyre will not Inflate to at least 2.0 bar (29 psi/ 200 kPa), the tyre Is too damaged. The sealant Is unable to seal the tyre. Do not drive on. Seek expert assistance.
CD
Switch the air compressor off after a maximum of 6 minutes to avoid overheating. Let the air compressor cool down for a few minutes be-fore switching it back on.
