In Case Of A Punctured Tire - Maserati GranTurismo 2024 Owner's Manual

In case of a Punctured Tire

The vehicle is equipped with a tire repair
kit.
WARNING!
An unsecured or incorrectly positioned
load increases the risk of injury during
sharp braking, a sudden change of
direction or an accident.
Using Tire Repair Kit
Small punctures up to 1:4" (6 mm) in the
tire tread can be sealed using the tire
repair kit, fitted on the battery cover,
inside of the trunk compartment (see
chapter "Tool Kit" in this section).
The kit consists of two parts:
• an electric compressor with pressure
gauge and power cable;
• a bottle containing sealant with hose to
be connected to the punctured tire.
NOTE:
For the tire repair procedures with tire
repair kit see instructions included in the
kit.
This kit will provide a temporary tire seal,
allowing you to drive your vehicle up to 6
miles (10 km) with a maximum speed of
50 MPH (80 km/h).
CAUTION!
• Intruding objects (e.g., screws or nails)
should not be removed from the tire,
which could compromise the repair
with the tire repair kit.
•
Do not use the tire repair kit if the tire
shows lateral damages and/or the rim
is damaged by driving with flat tire.
• Tire repair kit can be used in outside
temperatures down to approximately -
4°F (-20°C).
•
Replace the tire repair kit sealant bottle
prior to the expiration date (printed on
the bottle label) to assure optimum
operation of the system.
NOTE:
• The compressor power plug can
be inserted either in the 12 V power
outlet housed in the trunk or inside the
passenger compartment (see "Internal
Equipment" in section " Understanding
the Vehicle").
In an Emergency
• When having the tire serviced to an
Authorized Maserati Dealer or to a tires
service center, advise who performs
the operation that the tire has been
sealed using the tire repair kit.
