the passenger compartment.
Directions for use of the aerosol: Before using, carefully read all
the instructions on the canister, or on any literature accompany
ing the product. The following instructions apply to the use of
Holts Tireweld:
1. Remove the object causing the puncture, and position the
wheel with the puncture site (if determinable) lowermost.
Deflate tire fully.
2. Shake the can vigorously. In cold conditions, warm the can
using the car's heater outlets, or by body warmth.
3. Screw the aerosol tube onto the tire valve, remove the cap,
hold the can upright and press the button until the tire is firmly
inflated.
4. Immediately drive for 6 - 12 miles (10 - 20 km) (or to the tire
repair facility if nearer) in a moderate manner and not exceed
ing 30 mph (45 km/h), to allow the sealant to spread. Then
check and adjust the tire pressure as necessary.
5. Have the tire professionally repaired or replaced at the earli-
est opportunity, and until such time, limit speed to 30 mph
(45 km/h) with a moderate driving manner. Note that some
tire repairers may make an additional charge for cleaning
the sealant off the tire before repair, and that any subsequent
repairs may not be guaranteed. Be aware that the electronic
pressure sensor mounted inside the tire and integral with the
tire valve, could be obstructed by the sealant, and should be
renewed.
6. Renew the puncture repair aerosol.
