any case, follow the road safety laws
in force in the country where you are
driving;
insert the sealant cartridge (A)
into the corresponding compressor

parking brake and restore pressure
using the black inflation pipe (C)
fig. 310 to reach the required pressure.
If the pressure is still lower than 3
bar 15 minutes after switching on,
do not resume driving but contact a
Dealership. After driving for about 8 km
