10. Inflate the tyre to the
recommended inflation pressure
using the pressure gauge (C).
Tyre and loading information label
3 156.
Tyre pressures 3 185.
The pressure gauge (C) may read
higher than the actual tyre
pressure while the compressor is
on. Turn the compressor off to get
an accurate pressure reading.
The compressor may be turned
on/off until the correct pressure is
reached.
Note
If the recommended pressure
cannot be reached after
approximately 25 minutes, the
vehicle should not be driven farther.
The tyre is too severely damaged
and the tyre repair kit cannot inflate
the tyre. Remove the power plug
from the accessory power outlet and
unscrew the inflating hose from the
tyre valve.
11. Press the on/off button (B) to turn
the tyre repair kit off.
The tyre is not sealed and will
continue to leak air until the
vehicle is driven and the sealant is
distributed in the tyre; therefore,
steps 12 through 18 must be done
immediately after step 11.
Be careful while handling the tyre
repair kit as it could be warm after
usage.
12. Unplug the power plug (H) from
the accessory power outlet in the
vehicle.
13. Turn the sealant/air hose (F)
counterclockwise to remove it
from the tyre valve stem.
14. Replace the tyre valve stem cap.
15. Replace the sealant/air hose (F),
and the power plug (H) back in
their original location.
Vehicle care
16. If the flat tyre was able to inflate to
the recommended inflation
pressure, remove the maximum
speed label from the sealant
canister (E) and place it in a highly
visible location. Do not exceed the
speed on this label until the
damaged tyre is repaired or
replaced.
17. Return the equipment to its
original storage location in the
vehicle.
18. Immediately drive the vehicle
8 km to distribute the sealant in
the tyre.
