tyre Pressure KIt

Once the tyre is inflated correctly:
– stop using the kit;
– close the integrated cap on the bottle
again;
– disconnect adapter 8;
Nothing should be placed
around the driver's feet
as such objects may slide
under the pedals during
sudden braking manoeuvres and
obstruct their use.
(3/3)
– affix the driving recommendation
label 10 to the dashboard where it
can easily be seen by the driver;
– store the kit;
– at the end of this initial inflation op-
eration, air will still escape from the
10
tyre; you must drive a short distance
in order to seal the hole;
– start immediately and drive at be-
tween 12 and 40 mph (20 and
60 km/h) in order to distribute the
product evenly in the tyre and, after
driving for 2 miles, stop and check
the pressure;
– if the pressure is greater than 1.3 bar
but less than the recommended
pressure (refer to the label affixed to
the edge of the driver's door), read-
just it; otherwise, please contact an
authorised dealer: the tyre cannot be
repaired.
note: after using the inflation kit, you
should visit an approved Dealer to re-
place the inflation hose and the bottle
of repair product.
Precautions when using the
kit
The kit should not be operated for more
than 15 consecutive minutes.
Please be aware that a
poorly tightened or miss-
ing valve cap can make the
tyres less airtight and lead
to pressure loss.
Always use valve caps identical to
those fitted originally and tighten
them fully.
Following repair with the kit,
do not travel further than
120 miles (200 km). In addi-
tion, reduce your speed and
under no circumstances exceed
48 mph (80 km/h). The label, which
you must affix in a prominent posi-
tion on the dashboard, reminds you
of this. Depending on the country or
local legislation, a tyre repaired with
the tyre pressure kit will need to be
replaced.
