TYRE REPAIR KIT
If you are in any doubt regarding
your ability to carry out the
instructions, contact a Retailer/
Authorised Repairer before
attempting the repair.
For vehicles not supplied with a spare
wheel, there will be a tyre repair kit under
the loadspace floor panel. See 254, WHEEL
CHANGING. The tyre repair kit can be
used to repair one punctured tyre and it
is essential that you read the complete
tyre repair kit section of this handbook
before attempting to repair a tyre.
The tyre repair kit will seal most punctures
with a maximum diameter of 6 mm.
Note: The sealant used in the tyre repair
kit has a shelf life and the expiry date is
shown on the tyre sealant bottle. Make
sure that the container is replaced before
the expiry date. Also make sure that the
sealant is renewed after each use.
