 insert the electrical connector
(H) fig.49 into the 12V power
socket on the vehicle and start the
engine;
 operate the compressor by
pressing the ON/OFF button
(ON position) fig.48. When the
pressure gauge (B) reaches the
recommended pressure (see the
“Wheels” chapter in the “Technical
Specifications” section), stop the
compressor by pressing the ON/
OFF button again;
 disconnect the cartridge (A) from
the compressor by pressing the
release button (G) and lifting the

If the pressure gauge (B) fig.48
reads a pressure lower than
3 bar 15 minutes after turning on
the compressor, switch off the
compressor, disconnect the sealant
hose (E) from the tyre valve and
remove the cartridge (A) from the
compressor.
Move the vehicle approximately
10 metres to distribute the sealant.
Stop safely, engage the parking
brake and top up the pressure to
the prescribed value using the black
inflation pipe (C) fig.48 until the
recommended pressure is reached.
If the pressure is still lower than
3 bar 15 minutes after switching on,
do not resume driving but contact
a Dealership. After driving for about
8km / 5miles, stop the vehicle in a
safe and suitable area, and engage
the parking brake.
Take the compressor and top up
the pressure using the black inflation
hose (C).
If the pressure reading is higher
than 3 bar, restore the pressure and
drive with great care to the nearest
Dealership.
