INFLATION PROCEDURE
103)
Proceed as follows:
❒
engage the handbrake;
❒
place the Fix&Go kit close to the tyre
to be repaired;
❒
locate the fig. 96 filling pipe B already
connected to the spray bottle A;
❒
open the side lid E then connect the
spray bottle A to the fitting, following
the direction of the arrow;
❒
undo the cap of the tyre valve F and
connect the filling pipe B, tightening
the relevant ring nut on the tyre valve;
❒
make sure that the switch G fig. 97 is
in position
0 (off), then start the
engine;
❒
place the electric plug H fig. 98 in the
cigar lighter socket of the car (12 V);
❒
switch on the compressor, bringing
the switch G to position
1 (on);
❒
inflate the tyre to the pressure
specified (see the "Cold tyre inflation
pressure" paragraph in the "Technical
specifications" chapter).
IMPORTANT To get a more precise
reading, it is advisable to check the
value with compressor off.
❒
if the pressure does not reach at least
1.5 bar in 5 minutes, switch the
compressor off and disconnect the
filling pipe B from the tyre valve, then
remove the plug H;
❒
move the car by about 10 m, to
distribute the sealant inside the tyre,
then inflate again.
IMPORTANT If after this operation it is
still impossible after 5 minutes to reach
at least 1.5 bar, do not start driving
since the tyre is excessively damaged
and the Fix&Go kit cannot guarantee
proper seal; contact an Abarth
Dealership.
❒
If the tyre was inflated to the
prescribed pressure, start driving
immediately.
