Tyre repair kit

Before attempting a tyre repair, make
sure that the vehicle is parked safely, as
far away from passing traffic as
possible.
Make sure the parking brake is applied
and Park (P ) is selected. Select 1st or
reverse gear for vehicles with a manual
transmission.
Do not attempt to remove foreign
objects such as nails, screws, etc. from
the tyre.
Always run the engine when using the
compressor, unless the vehicle is in an
enclosed or poorly ventilated space, as
this may cause asphyxiation.
To prevent overheating, do not operate
the compressor continuously for longer
than 10 minutes.
Note: All vehicle drivers and occupants should
be made aware that a temporary repair has
been made to a tyre fitted to the vehicle. They
should also be made aware of the special
driving conditions imposed when using a
repaired tyre.
REPAIR PROCEDURE
Check the tyre sidewall prior to
inflation. If there are any cracks,
bumps or similar damage, do not
attempt to inflate the tyre. Do not
stand directly beside the tyre while
the compressor is pumping. Watch the
tyre sidewall. If any cracks, bumps or
similar damage appear, turn off the
compressor and let the air out by
means of the pressure relief valve. Do
not continue to use the tyre.
If the tyre inflation pressure does not
reach 1.8 bar (26 psi, 180 kPa) within
a maximum of 10 minutes, the tyre
may have suffered excessive damage.
A temporary repair will not be
possible, and the vehicle should not
be driven until the tyre has been
renewed.
1. Open the tyre repair kit and peel off the
maximum speed label. Attach the label to
the fascia in the driver's field of vision.
Take care not to obstruct any of the
instruments or warning lamps.
2. Uncoil the compressor power cable and
the inflation hose.
3. Unscrew the orange cap from the sealant
bottle receiver and the sealant bottle cap.
4. Screw the sealant bottle into the receiver in
a clockwise direction until tight.
Note: Screwing the bottle onto the receiver
will pierce the bottle's seal. Once the
receiver has been fitted, a ratchet prevents
it from being removed.
5. Remove the valve cap from the damaged
tyre.
6. Remove the protective cap from the
inflation hose. Connect the inflation hose to
the tyre valve making sure that the hose is
screwed on firmly.
7. Make sure the compressor switch is in the
Off (0) position, then insert the power
cable connector into an auxiliary power
socket. See 76, AUXILIARY POWER
SOCKETS.
Switch on the ignition. See 83,
SWITCHING ON THE IGNITION.
Alternatively, if the vehicle is not in a
confined space the engine can be started.
8. Switch on the compressor by positioning
the switch to the (l) position.
