TYRE INFLATION KIT

– affix driving recommendation label 9
to the dashboard where it can easily
be seen by the driver;
– store the kit;
– after the first inflation procedure the
tyre will still be leaking; it is vital to
drive in order to plug the hole;
– start immediately and drive at be-
tween 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, stop and check
the pressure;
– If the pressure is greater than 1.3 bar
but less than the recommended
pressure, readjust it (please refer to
the label affixed to the edge of the
driver’s door). Otherwise, please
contact an authorised dealer: the
tyre cannot be repaired.
Note: after using the inflation kit, you
should visit an approved Dealer to re-
place the inflation hose and the bottle
of repair product.
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.
Once the tyre is inflated correctly:
– stop using the kit;
– close the integrated cap on the bottle
again;
– disconnect adapter 8 ;
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.
Please be aware that a
poorly tightened or miss-
ing valve cap can make the
tyres less airtight and lead
to pressure loss.
Always use valve caps identical to
those fitted originally and tighten
them fully.
