TYRE INFLATION KIT
6
Practical advice - 357
– Affix the driving recommendation
label (located under the container) to
the dashboard where the driver can
see it.
– Put the kit away.
– At the end of this initial inflation
operation, air will still escape from the
tyre. You must drive a short distance in
order to seal the hole.
– Start immediately and drive at a
speed between 12 and 37 mph (20 to
60 km/h) in order to distribute the
product evenly in the tyre. After driving
a distance of 2 miles (3 km), stop and
check the pressure.
– If the pressure is higher than 1.3 bar
but lower than the recommended
pressure (refer to the label affixed to
the edge of the driver's door), adjust it.
Otherwise, contact an approved
dealer: the tyre cannot be repaired.
Precautions when using the kit
The kit should not be operated for
more than 15 consecutive minutes.
The container must be replaced after
the first use even if liquid remains
inside.
Nothing should be
placed around the
driver’sfeetasduring
sudden braking such
objects may slide under the
pedals and obstruct their use.
Please be aware that a
poorly tightened or
missing valve cap can
make the tyres less
airtight and may lead to pressure
loss.
Always use valve caps identical to
the originals and screw them
down fully.
Following repair with the
kit, do not travel further
than 124 miles (200 km).
In addition, reduce your
speed and under no
circumstances exceed 50 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 will need to be
replaced.
