TYRE INFLATION KIT (1/4)

B

Do not attempt to use the

inflation kit if the tyre has

been damaged as a result

of driving with a puncture.

The kit is only approved

for inflating the tyres of the

vehicle initially fitted with the

kit. It must never be used to

inflate the tyres of another vehicle,

or any other inflatable object (rubber

ring, rubber boat, etc.).

You should therefore carefully check

the condition of the tyre sidewalls

before any operation.

A

Avoid spillage on skin when han-

dling the repair liquid bottle. If dro-

plets do leak out, rinse them off with

plenty of water.

Driving with underinflated, flat or

punctured tyres can be dangerous

and may make the tyre impossible

to repair.

Keep the repair kit away from chil-

dren.

This repair is temporary

A tyre which has been punctured

should always be inspected (and re-

paired, where possible) as soon as

possible by a specialist.

Do not dispose of the empty bottle

in the countryside. Return it to your

approved dealer or to a recycling or-

ganisation.

The kit repairs tyres when

tread A has been da-

maged by objects smaller

than 4 mm. It cannot repair

all types of puncture, such as cuts

larger than 4 mm, or cuts in tyre si-

dewall B.

When replacing a tyre repaired

using this kit, you must inform the

specialist. When driving, vibration

may be felt due to the presence of

the repair product injected into the

tyre.

The bottle has a limited service

life which is indicated on its label.

Check the expiry date.

Contact an approved dealer to re-

place the inflation tube and repair

product bottle.

Ensure also that the wheel rim is in

good condition.

Do not pull out the foreign body cau-

sing the puncture if it is still in the

tyre.

In the event of a puncture, use the kit C

located in the luggage compartment on

4x2 versions or in the emergency spare

wheel tray under the luggage compart-

ment carpet on 4x4 versions.

On 4x2 versions, unclip flap D.

If the vehicle is parked on

the hard shoulder, you must

warn other road users of

your vehicle’s presence

with a warning triangle or with other

devices as per the legislation ap-

plying to the country you are in.

Before using this kit, park the vehicle at a sufficient distance from traffic,

switch on the hazard warning lights, apply the handbrake, ask all passen-

gers to leave the vehicle and keep them away from traffic.

TYRE INFLATION KIT (3/4)

With the engine running and the par-

king brake applied,

Note: while the container is emp-

tying (approximately 30 seconds),

the pressure gauge 5 will briefly in-

dicate a pressure of up to 6 bar. The

pressure will then drop.

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.

– unroll the hose from the container;

– connect the compressor hose 3 to

the container’s inlet 8;

– adjust the pressure: to increase

it, continue inflation with the kit; to

reduce it, press button 6.

– depending on the vehicle, connect

the container 8 to the compressor

from the container recess 7;

If a minimum pressure of 1.8 bar is

not reached after 15 minutes, repair

is not possible; do not drive the vehi-

cle but contact an approved dealer.

– unscrew the valve cap on the rele-

vant wheel and screw on the contai-

ner’s inflation adapter 1;

– adapter 2 must be connected to the

vehicle accessories socket;

– press switch 4 to inflate the tyre to

the recommended pressure (please

refer to the information in the section

on “Tyre pressure”);

– after a maximum of 15 minutes, stop

inflating and read the pressure (on

pressure gauge 5).

Please be aware that a

poorly tightened or missing

valve cap can make the

tyres less airtight and lead

to pressure loss. Always use valve

caps identical to the original ones

and ensure they are tightly screwed

on.

– 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

pressure (refer to the label affixed to

the edge of the driver’s door), read-

just it. Otherwise, please contact an

authorised dealer: the tyre cannot be

repaired.

Precautions when using the

kit

Once the tyre is correctly inflated,

remove the kit: slowly unscrew the in-

flation adapter 1 to prevent any repair

product from escaping and store the

container in plastic packaging to pre-

vent the product from escaping.

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

– Affix the driving recommendation

label to the dashboard where it can

easily be seen by the driver;

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.

– Put the kit away.

– At the end of this initial inflation ope-

ration, air will still escape from the

tyre. You must drive a short distance

in order to seal the hole.
