TYRE PRESSURE KIT (3/3)
– adjust the pressure: to increase
it, continue inflation with the kit, to
reduce it, press button 7 located on
the inflation adapter.
If a minimum pressure of 1.8 bar is
not reached after 15 minutes, repair
is not possible; do not drive the ve-
hicle but contact an approved dealer.
Once the tyre is correctly inflated,
remove the kit: slowly unscrew the in-
flation adapter 6 to prevent any repair
product from escaping and screw the
hose to the bottle opening to prevent
the product from escaping.
Affix the driving recommendation label
to the dashboard where it can easily be
seen by the driver;
Put the kit away.
At the end of this initial inflation opera-
tion, air will still escape from the tyre.
You must drive a short distance in order
to seal the hole.
Start immediately and drive at between
12 and 40 mph (20 and 60 km/h) in
order to distribute the product evenly
in the tyre and, after driving for 2 miles
(3 km), stop and check the pressure.
If the pressure is greater than 1.3 bar
but less than the recommended pres-
sure (refer to the label affixed to the
edge of the driver’s door), readjust it.
Otherwise, please contact an author-
ised dealer: the tyre cannot be repaired.
Precautions when using the
kit
The kit should not be operated for more
than 15 consecutive minutes.

Nothing should be placed
around the driver’s feet
as such objects may slide
under the pedals during
sudden braking manoeuvres and
obstruct their use.

Please be aware that a
poorly tightened or miss-
ing valve cap can make the
tyres less airtight and may
lead to pressure loss.
Always use valve caps identical to
those fitted originally and tighten
them fully.
Following repair with the kit,
do not travel further than
120 miles (200 km). In addi-
tion, reduce your speed and
under no circumstances exceed
48 mph (80 km/h). The sticker,
which you must affix in a prominent
position on the dashboard, reminds
you of this.
Depending on the country or local
legislation, a tyre repaired with the
inflation kit may need to be replaced.
