NOTICE
Do not operate the temporary tyre repair kit
compressor for more than 15 minutes. The
compressor can overheat and become permanently
damaged.
Until the sealant injection is complete, the pressure
shown on the pressure gauge will appear higher than
actual. After the sealant injection is complete the
pressure will drop and then begin to rise again as the
tyre is inflated with air. This is normal. To accurately
measure the air pressure using the gauge, turn the air
compressor off only after the sealant injection is
complete.
If the required air pressure is not reached within 10
minutes, the tyre may be too severely damaged for
the kit to provide the necessary seal and your vehicle
will need to be towed.
The power supply of the air compressor is limited to
your vehicle's 12-volt DC accessory socket.
