Tyre inflation kit

TYRE PRESSURE KIT (1/3)

The kit is only approved for

inflating the tyres of the ve-

hicle originally equipped

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.).

Avoid spillage on skin when han-

dling the repair product bottle. If

droplets do leak out, rinse them off

with plenty of water.

Keep the repair kit away from chil-

dren.

Do not dispose of the empty bottle

in the countryside. Return it to your

approved dealer or to a recycling or-

ganisation.

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.

The kit repairs tyres when

tread A has been dam-

aged by objects smaller

than 4 mm. It cannot repair

all types of puncture, such as cuts

larger than 4 mm, or cuts in tyre

sidewall B.

Ensure also that the wheel rim is in

good condition.

Do not pull out the foreign body

causing the puncture if it is still in

the tyre.

Do not attempt to use the

inflation kit if the tyre has

been damaged as a result

of driving with a puncture.

You should therefore carefully check

the condition of the tyre sidewalls

before any operation.

Driving with underinflated, flat or

punctured tyres can be dangerous

and may make the tyre impossible

to repair.

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.

When taking a tyre which has been

repaired using this kit to be replaced,

you must inform the specialist.

When driving, vibration may be felt

due to the presence of the repair

product injected into the tyre.

TYRE PRESSURE KIT (2/3)

Depending on the vehicle, in the event

of a puncture, use the kit located in the

boot or underneath the luggage com-

partment carpet.

Vehicle fitted with a tyre pressure

loss warning system

If under-inflated (puncture, low pres-

sure, etc.), the warning light



lights up on the instrument panel.

See “Tyre pressure loss warning” in

Section 2.

With the engine running and the

parking brake applied,

– Disconnect any accessories previ-

ously connected to the vehicle’s ac-

cessories sockets;

– Refer to the information on the in-

flation kit compressor located in the

vehicle’s luggage compartment and

follow the instructions;

– inflate the tyre to the recommended

pressure (please refer to the infor-

mation in the section on “Tyre pres-

sures”);

– after a maximum of 15 minutes, stop

inflating and read the pressure (on

the pressure gauge 1);

Note: while the bottle is emptying

(approximately 30 seconds), the

pressure gauge 1 will indicate briefly

a pressure of 6 bar, then the pres-

sure drops.

– Adjust the pressure: to increase

it, continue inflation with the kit. To

reduce it, press the button 2.

Before using this kit, park

the vehicle at a sufficient

distance from traffic, switch

on the hazard warning

lights, apply the handbrake, ask all

passengers to leave the vehicle and

keep them away from traffic.

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 apply-

ing to the country you are in.

TYRE PRESSURE KIT (3/3)

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 end piece 3 to prevent any prod-

uct spatter and store the container in

plastic packaging to prevent product

leaks.

– 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 op-

eration, 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 recom-

mended pressure (refer to the label

affixed to the edge of the driver’s

door), readjust it. Otherwise, please

contact an authorised 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.
