10. Set the rocker switch on the
compressor to I. The tyre is filled
with sealant.
11. The compressor pressure gauge
briefly indicates up to 6 bar whilst
the sealant bottle is emptying
(approx. 30 seconds). Then the
pressure starts to drop.
12. All of the sealant is pumped into
the tyre. Then the tyre is inflated.
13. The prescribed tyre pressure
(About 2.2 bar) should be
obtained within 10 minutes. When
the correct pressure is obtained,
switch off the compressor.
If the prescribed tyre pressure is
not obtained within 10 minutes,
remove the tyre repair kit. Move
the vehicle one tyre rotation.
Reattach the tyre repair kit and
continue the filling procedure for
10 minutes. If the prescribed tyre
pressure is still not obtained, the
tyre is too badly damaged. Seek
the assistance of a workshop.
Drain excess tyre pressure with
the button over the pressure
indicator.
Do not run the compressor longer
than 10 minutes.
14. Detach the tyre repair kit. Push
catch on bracket to remove
sealant bottle from bracket. Screw
tyre inflation hose to the free
connection of sealant bottle. This
prevents sealant from escaping.
Stow tyre repair kit in load
compartment.
15. Remove any excess sealant
using a cloth.
16. Take the label indicating
maximum permitted speed
(approx. 50 mph) from the sealant
bottle and affix in the driver's field
of view.
17. Continue driving immediately so
that sealant is evenly distributed
in the tyre. After driving approx.
6 miles (but no more than
10 minutes), stop and check tyre
pressure. Screw compressor air
hose directly onto tyre valve and
compressor when doing this.
If tyre pressure is more than
1.3 bar, set it to the correct value
(approx. 2.2 bar). Repeat the
procedure (no.17) until there is no
more loss of pressure.
If the tyre pressure has fallen
below 1.3 bar, the vehicle must
not be used. Seek the assistance
of a workshop.
18. Stow away tyre repair kit in load
compartment.
