Vehicle Care
When using the tyre sealant and
compressor kit during cold
temperatures, warm the kit in a
heated environment for five minutes.
This will help to inflate the tyre
faster.
If a tyre goes flat, avoid further tyre
and wheel damage by driving slowly
to a level place. Turn on the hazard
warning flashers. See Hazard
Warning Flashers on page 6 4.
See If a Tyre Goes Flat on
page 10 74 for other important
safety warnings.
Do not remove any objects that
have penetrated the tyre.
1. Remove the tyre sealant and
compressor kit from its storage
location. See Storing the Tyre
Sealant and Compressor Kit
(Coupe) on page 10 83 or
Storing the Tyre Sealant and
Compressor Kit (Wagon) on
page 10 83 or Storing the Tyre
Sealant and Compressor Kit
(Sedan) on page 10 84.
2. Unwrap the sealant/air hose (6)
and the power plug (8).
3. Place the kit on the ground.
Make sure the tyre valve stem is
positioned close to the ground
so the hose will reach it.
4. Remove the valve stem cap from
the flat tyre by turning it
anticlockwise.
5. Attach the sealant/air hose (6)
onto the tyre valve stem. Turn it
clockwise until it is tight.
6. Plug the power plug (8) into the
accessory power outlet in the
vehicle. Unplug all items from
other accessory power outlets.
See Power Outlets on page 5 9.
If the vehicle has an accessory
power outlet, do not use the
cigarette lighter.
If the vehicle only has a cigarette
lighter, use the cigarette lighter.
Do not pinch the power plug
cord in the door or window.
7. Start the vehicle. The vehicle
must be running while using the
air compressor.
