(3/3)
– disconnect any accessories previ-
ously connected to the vehicle's ac-
cessories sockets;
– adapter 2 must be connected to the
vehicle accessories socket;
– press switch 4 to inflate the tyre to
2
the recommended pressure (please
refer to the information on "Tyre infla-

– after a maximum of 15 minutes, stop
inflating and read the pressure (on
pressure gauge 5).

Note: while the container is empty-
ing (approximately 30 seconds), the
pressure gauge 5 will briefly indicate
a pressure of up to 6 bar. The pres-
sure will then drop.
– adjust the pressure: to increase
it, continue inflation with the kit; to
reduce it, press button 6.
If a minimum pressure of 1.8 bar is
not reached after 15 minutes, repair
is not possible; do not drive the ve-
hicle but contact an approved dealer.
Once the tyre is correctly inflated,
remove the kit: slowly unscrew the in-
flation adapter 1 to prevent any repair
product from escaping and store the
container in plastic packaging to pre-
vent the product from escaping.
– Affix the driving recommendation
label to the dashboard where it can
easily be seen by the driver;
– Store the kit in the toolkit and re-
insert it properly under the driver's
seat.
– At the end of this initial inflation op-
eration, air will still escape from the
tyre. You must drive a short distance
in order to seal the hole.
– Start immediately and drive at be-
tween 12 and 40 mph (20 and
60 km/h) in order to distribute the
product evenly in the tyre and, after
driving for 2 miles (3 km), stop and
check the pressure.
– If the pressure is greater than 1.3 bar
but less than the recommended
pressure (refer to the label affixed to
the edge of the driver's door), read-
just it. Otherwise, please contact an
authorised dealer: the tyre cannot be
repaired.
