TYRE INFLATION KIT (3/4)
3
Note: while the bottle is emptying
(approximately 30 seconds), the
pressure gauge 1 will briefly indicate
a pressure of up to 6 bar, then the
pressure drops.
– 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 a
speed of 12.4 to 37.2 mph (20 to
60 km/h) in order to distribute the
product evenly in the tyre; after driv-
ing a distance of 1.86 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.
– Adjust the pressure: to increase
it, continue inflation with the kit. To
reduce it, press the button 2.
If the recommended pressure of
1.8 bar cannot be achieved after
15 minutes, repair is impossible. Do
not drive the vehicle. Consult an au-
thorised dealer.

Once the tyre is correctly inflated,
remove the kit: unscrew the inflation
adapter slowly from the container 3 to
prevent any product spatter and store
the container in plastic packaging to
prevent product leaks.
Engine running, handbrake applied:
– Disconnect any accessories from the
vehicle’s accessories sockets;
– refer to the information on the in-
flation kit compressor located in
the boot of the vehicle and follow the
instructions;
– inflate the tyre to the recommended
pressure (please refer to the infor-
mation in the section on “Tyre pres-
sures”);
– Affix the driving recommendation
label (located under the container) to
the dashboard where the driver can
see it.
– Put the kit away.
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.
– after a maximum of 15 minutes, stop
inflating and read the pressure (on
pressure gauge 1).
