13. The prescribed tyre pressure
should be obtained within ten
minutes. Tyre pressure
3
276.
When the correct pressure is
obtained, switch off the
compressor.
If the prescribed tyre pressure is
not obtained within ten minutes,
remove the tyre repair kit. Move
the vehicle one tyre rotation.
Reattach the tyre repair kit and
continue the filling procedure for
ten minutes. If the prescribed tyre
pressure is still not obtained, the
tyre is too badly damaged. Seek
the assistance of a workshop.

the button over the pressure

than ten minutes.

sealant bottle from bracket. Screw
the tyre inflation hose to the free
connection of the sealant bottle.

using a cloth.
16. Take the label indicating
maximum permitted speed from
the sealant bottle and affix in the
driver's field of view.

that sealant is evenly distributed
in the tyre. After driving approx.
six miles (but no more than ten
minutes), stop and check tyre
pressure. Screw compressor air
hose directly onto tyre valve and
compressor when doing this.
If tyre pressure is more than
1.3 bar, set it to the correct value.
Repeat the procedure until there
is no more loss of pressure.
If the tyre pressure has fallen
below 1.3 bar, the vehicle must
not be used. Seek the assistance
of a workshop.

compartment.
