19. After driving for 10 minutes or 5 km,
check the tyre pressure using the air pres-
sure gauge on the compressor. If the tyre
pressure has apparently not dropped, the
emergency repair procedure is complete.
Continue the process from step 21.
If the tyre pressure is not sufficient, inflate
the tyre to the specified pressure again
and drive the vehicle carefully without
exceeding a speed of 80 km/h.
20. After driving for 10 minutes or 5 km,
check the tyre pressure using the air pres-
sure gauge on the compressor. If the tyre
pressure has apparently not dropped, the
emergency repair procedure is complete.
You must still not exceed a speed of
80 km/h. Observe local speed limits.
21. Immediately drive with great care to an
authorised MITSUBISHI MOTORS
dealer and have tyre repair/replacement
performed.
If you sense any abnormality while driving,
stop the vehicle and contact an authorised
MITSUBISHI MOTORS dealer or another
specialist. Otherwise the tyre pressure may
drop before the emergency repair procedure
is completed, rendering the vehicle unsafe.
Driving faster than 80 km/h can make the
vehicle vibrate.
If the tyre pressure is lower than the mini-
mum permitted pressure (1.3 bar {130 kPa}),
the tyre cannot successfully be repaired with
the tyre sealant. Do not drive the vehicle any
further. Contact an authorised MITSUBISHI
MOTORS dealer or another specialist.
If the tyre pressure has dropped below the
specified level when you check it at the end
of the repair procedure, do not drive the
vehicle any further. Contact an authorised
MITSUBISHI MOTORS dealer or another
specialist.
In cold conditions (when the ambient tem-
perature is 0 °C or lower), the time and driv-
ing distance necessary until completion of
the repair can be longer than in warmer con-
ditions, meaning that the tyre pressure can
drop below the specified level even when
you have inflated the tyre a second time and
subsequently driven the vehicle. If this hap-
pens, inflate the tyre to the specified pressure
once more, drive for approximately 10 min-
utes or 5 km, then check the tyre pressure
again. If the tyre pressure has again dropped
below the specified level, stop driving the
vehicle and contact an authorised
MITSUBISHI MOTORS dealer or another
specialist.
Be sure to check the tyre pressure for confir-
mation that the emergency repair procedure
is complete.
Please give the empty sealant bottle to your
authorised MITSUBISHI MOTORS dealer
when you purchase new sealant or dispose of
the sealant bottle according to national regu-
lations for the disposal of chemical waste.
A tyre in which puncture sealant has been
used should ideally be replaced with a new
one. If you wish to have such a tyre properly
repaired for reuse, please contact an author-
ised MITSUBISHI MOTORS dealer or
another specialist. Note that a proper repair
is impossible following an emergency repair
if the puncture hole cannot be located.
The manufacturer is unable to guarantee that
all tyre punctures can be repaired with the
tyre repair kit, in particular cuts or perfora-
tions with a diameter of more than 4 mm or
away from the tyre’s tread. The manufac-
turer is not liable for damage sustained
through improper use of the tyre repair kit.
