WHEELS AND TIRES
Inflate tires with the compressor
included in the tire sealing system
The vehicle's original tires can be inflated
using the compressor in the tire sealing sys-
tem.
1.
The compressor must be switched off.
Make sure that the switch is in the 0 (Off)
position and take out the electrical cable
and the hose.
2. Attach the hose directly onto the com-
pressor's bottle holder and turn clockwise
until it clicks into place.
Move the warning sticker to the side of
the compressor; it doesn't need to be
affixed to the wheel side if the sealing
compound is not used.
3. Unscrew the tire's valve cap and screw
the hose's valve connector as far as possi-
ble onto the valve.

4. Connect the electrical cable to the nearest
12 V outlet and start the vehicle.
WARNING
Inhaling exhaust fumes could lead to seri-
ous injury. Never leave the engine running
in an enclosed space or a space without
sufficient ventilation.
WARNING
Never leave children unattended in the
vehicle while the engine is running.
5. Start the compressor by moving the
switch to the I (On) position.
CAUTION
Risk of overheating. The compressor
should not be running for longer than 10
minutes at a time.
6. Inflate the tire to the pressure specified on
the tire pressure decal on the driver's side
door pillar. If the inflation pressure is too
high, use the air release valve to release
air.
7. Switch off the compressor. Remove the
hose and the electrical cable.
8. Screw the valve cap back onto the tire.
NOTE
After inflating a tire, always replace the
valve cap to help prevent valve damage
caused by gravel, dirt, etc.
Use plastic valve caps only. Metal caps
could corrode and become difficult to
remove.
NOTE
The compressor is an electric device. Fol-
low local regulations for disposal.
