Mitsubishi Colt Owner's Manual page 194

Remove the "max. 80 km/h" or "max.
50 mph" label from the bottle, that must be
displayed on the instrument panel within the
driver's field of view.
12. Insert the plug on the compressor's power
cord (O) into the accessory socket (P), then
turn the ignition switch to the "ACC" or
"ON" position.
13. Turn ON the compressor switch (Q) and in-
flate the tyre to the specified pressure. Check
and adjust the tyre pressure with reference to
the air pressure gauge (R) on the compressor
(I). If you overinflate the tyre, release air by
pressing the pressure release switch (S) on
the compressor or by loosening the hose's
end fitting. (Refer to "Tyre inflation pres-
sures" on page 8-12.)
For emergencies
CAUTION
l
Do not keep the compressor running con-
tinuously for more than 6 minutes. Doing
so could result in a malfunction.
If the tyre pressure does not rise adequately,
remove the compressor from the tyre and care-
fully drive the vehicle 10 metres forwards or
backwards to distribute the tyre sealant
amount in the tyre's interior, then try inflat-
ing the tyre again.
If there is a gap between the tyre and wheel
because the tyre has moved inward from the
wheel rim, press the periphery of the tyre to-
wards the wheel to close the gap before run-
ning the compressor. (With no gaps, the tyre
pressure will rise.)
CAUTION
l Be careful not to get your fingers trapped
between the tyre and wheel as the tyre in-
flates.
14. Turn OFF the compressor switch, then pull
the power cord plug out of the accessory sock-
et.
NOTE
l The supplied compressor is designed only
for inflation of passenger vehicle tyres.
l The compressor is designed to run on a vehi-
cle's 12 V power supply. Do not connect it
to any other power source.
