TYRE INFLATION KIT (3/3)
– store the kit;
– after the first inflation procedure the
tyre will still be leaking; it is vital to
drive in order to plug the hole;
– start immediately and drive at be-
tween 12 and 36 mph (20 and 60
km/h) to distribute the product evenly
throughout the tyre, stopping after a
distance of 2 miles (3 kilometres) to
check the pressure.
– If the pressure is above 1.3 bar but
lower than the recommended pres-
sure, readjust it to this pressure
(refer to the label affixed to the edge
of the driver’s door), otherwise con-
tact an approved dealer: repair is not
possible.
Note: after using the inflation kit, you
should visit an approved Dealer to re-
place the inflation hose and the bottle
of repair product.
Precautions when using the
kit
The kit should not be operated for more
than 15 consecutive minutes.
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 posi-
tion on the dashboard, reminds you
of this.
Depending on the country or local
legislation, a tyre repaired with the
tyre pressure kit will need to be re-
placed.
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.
Once the tyre is inflated correctly:
– stop using the kit;
– close the integrated cap on the bottle
again;
– disconnect adapter 8;
– affix the driving recommendation
label to the dashboard where it can
easily be seen by the driver;

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.
