WHEELS AND TYRES
Inflating tyres with the compressor
from the puncture repair kit
The car's original tyres can be inflated using the
compressor in the emergency puncture repair
kit.
1. The compressor must be switched off. Make
sure that the switch is in position 0 (Off), and
take out the electrical cable and the air hose.
2. Unscrew the tyre's dust cap and screw in the
air hose's valve connection to the bottom of
the thread on the tyre's air valve.
Check that the pressure reducing valve on
the air hose is fully screwed in.
3. Connect the electrical cable to the closest
12 V socket and start the car.
WARNING
Inhaling car exhaust fumes could result in
danger to life. Never leave the engine running
in sealed areas or areas that lack sufficient
ventilation.
WARNING
Do not leave children in the car without
supervision when the engine is running.
4. Start the compressor by flicking the switch to
position I (On).

IMPORTANT
Risk of overheating. The compressor must not
run for more than 10 minutes.
5. Inflate the tyre to the pressure specified on
the tyre pressure label on the driver side
door pillar. Release air using the pressure
reducing valve if the tyre pressure is too high.
6. Switch off the compressor. Detach the air
hose and the electrical cable.
7. Refit the dust cap on the tyre.
NOTE
After a tyre has been inflated, always refit
•
the dust cap in order to avoid damage to
the valve from gravel, dirt, etc.
Only use plastic dust caps. Metal dust
•
caps can rust and become difficult to
unscrew.
NOTE
The compressor is an electrical device. Follow
local regulations related to waste manage-
ment.
