3. If the pressure of the sealant-filled tire
is 1.3 bar (19 psi) or more, adjust it to
the specified pressure. See Technical
Specifications (page 216).
4. Follow the inflation procedure once
again to top up the tire.
5. Check the tire pressure again from the
pressure gauge F. If the tire pressure is
too high, deflate the tire to the
specified pressure using the pressure
relief valve B.
6. Once you have inflated the tire to its
correct tire pressure, move the
compressor switch H to position 0,
remove the power plug G from the
socket, unscrew the hose C, fasten the
valve cap and replace the protective
cap A.
7. Leave the sealant bottle K in the bottle
holder E and store the kit away safely
in its original location.
8. Drive to the nearest tire specialist to
get the damaged tire replaced. Before
the tire is removed from the rim, inform
your tire dealer that the tire contains
sealant. You must renew the sealant
bottle K and hose C as soon as possible
once used.
Note: Remember that this kit only provides
temporary mobility. Regulations concerning
tire repair after usage of tire repair kit may
differ from country to country. You should
consult a tire specialist for advice.
WARNING
Before driving, make sure the tire is
adjusted to the recommended
inflation pressure. See Technical
Specifications (page 216). Monitor the
tire pressure until the sealed tire is
replaced.
Empty sealant bottles can be disposed of
together with normal household waste.
Return remains of sealant to your dealer
or dispose of it in compliance with local
waste disposal regulations.
TIRE CARE
To make sure the front and rear tires of
your vehicle wear evenly and last longer,
we recommend that you swap the tires
from front to rear and vice versa at regular
intervals of between 5000 and 10000
kilometers (3000 and 6000 miles).
CAUTION
Do not scrub the sidewalls of the tires
when you are parking.
If you have to mount a curb, do so slowly
and approach it with the wheels at
right-angles to the curb.
Examine the tires regularly for cuts, foreign
objects and uneven wear of the tread.
Uneven wear could mean that the wheel
alignment is outside specification.
Check the tire pressures (including the
spare) when cold, every two weeks.
