WARNING
Never stand next to the tyre when the com-
pressor is running. Be particularly observ-
ant of the tyre walls. If cracks, irregularities
or other damage appears, turn off the com-
pressor immediately. Under these circum-
stances your journey should not continue.
Contact an authorised tyre centre.
– Undo the air hose (4) from the air valve
and put the dust cap back on. Unplug the
lead (5) from the electrical socket. Fold the
orange-coloured part (7) back into its orig-
inal position and secure the catch (6).
Keep the emergency repair kit in a safe
place in the car.
– Immediately drive about 3 km, at a maxi-
mum speed of 80 km/h, to allow the seal-
ing fluid to seal the tyre well.
WARNING
You should not drive faster than 80 km/h
after the emergency tyre repair kit has been
used. The temporarily sealed tyre must be
changed as soon as possible (maximum
driving distance: 200 km).
Check the tyre pressure again:
NOTE
Do not raise the orange-coloured part (7)
when only the compressor is to be used for
inflation.
– Connect the air hose (4) to the tyre's air
valve. Connect the lead (5) to the 12 V
socket. Read the pressure on the com-
pressor. If the tyre pressure is below
1.3 bar, the tyre has not been sufficiently
well sealed. Under these circumstances
your journey should not be continued.
Contact a tyre centre.
– If the tyre pressure is higher than 1.3 bar,
the tyre should be pumped up to the
pressure stated on the tyre pressure label,
see page 155 for its location. Release
pressure with the reduction valve (8) if the
tyre pressure is too high.
– Switch off the compressor, the switch (2)
should be in position 0. Detach the air
hose and unplug the lead. Replace the
valve's dust cap.
– Put the lead (5) and air hose (4) into the
side compartment (3).
– Put the puncture repair kit back under the
floor in the cargo area.

wards as there is a risk of overheating.

be replaced after use.
