under pressure into the tyre; do not disconnect

the pipe from the valve during this operation (risk

of blowback).

►ꢀ Connect the hose from the bottle of sealant

to the valve of the tyre to be repaired and tighten

firmly.

If after approximately 7 minutes, the

pressure of 2 bar is not reached, this

indicates that the tyre is not repairable;

contact a dealer or a qualified workshop for

assistance.

sealant, available from a dealer or a qualified

workshop.

Should the pressure of one or more tyres

be adjusted, it is necessary to reinitialise

the under-inflation detection system.

Checking/adjusting tyre

pressures

The compressor can be used, without injecting

sealant, to check and, if necessary, adjust the

tyre pressures.

For more information on Tyre under-inflation

detection, refer to the corresponding section.
