Emergency puncture repair
Sealing punctured tyres
Set up the warning triangle if emergency tyre
repairs must be carried out in an area where
there is other traffic.
– Remove the decal (1) regarding the high-
est permitted speed from the emergency
puncture repair kit and stick it on the
07
steering wheel where it can be clearly
seen by the driver.
– Ensure that the orange switch (2) is in
position 0 and take out the lead (5) and air
hose (4) from the side compartment (3).
– Screw the air hose's valve connection to
the bottom of the thread on the tyre's air
valve.

– Connect the lead (5) to one of the car's
12 V sockets.
– Release the safety catch (6) and turn the
orange-coloured part (7) 90 degrees to the
vertical position, until a click is heard.
– Start the engine. The car must be in a well-
ventilated place.
WARNING
Inhaling car exhaust fumes can result in
danger to life. Never leave the engine run-
ning in sealed areas or areas that lack suffi-
cient ventilation.
– Start the compressor by flicking the
switch (2) to position I. The pressure may
increase temporarily up to a maximum of
4 bar while the sealing liquid is being
pumped in. After about one minute, the
pressure will drop and the pressure gauge
will show a more correct tyre pressure.
– Inflate the tyre to a pressure of between
1.8 bar and 3.5 bar. If the pressure does
not reach 1.8 bar after ten minutes of
inflating, the compressor should be turned
off so it does not overheat.
