Emergency puncture repair
12. Switch off the compressor and unplug
the cable from the 12 V socket.
13. Detach the hose from the tyre valve and
fit the valve cap.
14. As soon as possible drive
approximately 3 km at a maximum
speed of 80 km/h so that the sealing
fluid can be distributed and seal the
tyre.
Rechecking the repair and pressure
1. Reconnect the equipment.
2. Read the tyre pressure on the pressure
gauge.
• If it is below 1.3 bar then the tyre is
insufficiently sealed. The journey should
not be continued. Contact a tyre centre.
• If the tyre pressure is higher than 1.3 bar,
the tyre must be inflated to the pressure
specified on the tyre pressure decal. Re-
lease air using the pressure reducing valve
if the tyre pressure is too high.
3. Switch off the compressor. Detach the
air hose and cable. Refit the dust cap.
