approximate 30 seconds. The tyre should reach the
specified inflation pressure of 2.2 bar (34 psi) within
5 or 10 minutes.
Note: The pressure gauge may briefly reach 6
bar (87 psi), then the pressure begins to drop to
normal.
4 When the required pressure is reached, switch off the
power switch of the electric compressor (i.e., press
"O").
Note:
If the required pressure cannot be
reached within 10 minutes, please disconnect the
compressor, drive the vehicle 10 metres (33 feet)
approx forward or backward to allow the sealant
to spread within the tyre. If the required pressure
can still not be reached, the tyre is severely
damaged and you should seek assistance from the
MG Authorised Repairer.
Note:
Consecutive operation of Electric air

will allow the sealant to distribute evenly inside the
tyre. Continue driving and do not exceed 50 MPH
(80 km/h).After a further 10 minutes, find a safe place
to stop and recheck the tyre pressure.
• If the tyre pressure has dropped to less than 0.8 bar
(11.6 psi), do not continue driving, seek assistance
instead.
• If the pressure is greater than 0.8 bar (11.6 psi) after
a 10 minutes drive, correct the tyre pressure (see
tyre pressure label) and continue. Check again after
another 10 minute drive. If 1.8 bar (26.1 psi) cannot
