244 IN CASE OF EMERGENCY
TIRE SERVICE KIT COMPONENTS AND
O
PERATION
Tire Service Kit Components
If a tire is punctured, you can make a first
emergency repair using the Tire Service Kit
located in the rear storage compartment inside
the storage container.
1. Remove the Tire Service Kit from the
vehicle, take it out from the bag and place
it near the punctured tire. Screw the clear
flexible filling tube to the tire valve.
2. Insert the power plug into the vehicle power
outlet socket. Start the vehicle engine.
3. Push the Tire Service Kit power button to
the “I” position. The electric compressor will
be turned on, sealant and air will inflate the
tire.
Minimum 26 psi (1.8 bar) of pressure
should be reached within 20 minutes. If the
pressure has not been reached turn off and
remove the Tire Service Kit, drive the vehi-
cle 30 feet (10 meters) back and forth, to
better distribute the sealant inside the tire.
4. Attach the clear flexible filling tube of the
compressor directly to the tire valve and
repeat the inflation process.
When the correct pressure has been
reached, start driving the vehicle to uniformly
distribute the sealant inside the tire. After
10 minutes, stop and check the tire pres-
sure. If the pressure is below 19 psi (1.3 bar),
do not drive the vehicle, as the tire is too
damaged, and contact the nearest autho-
rized dealer.
NOTE:
The sealant is effective with external tempera-
tures of between -40°F (-40°C) to 131°F
(+55°C). The sealant has an expiry date. It is
possible to repair tires which have been
damaged on tread up to a diameter of 6mm.
Show the cartridge and the label to the
personnel charged with handling the tire
treated with th tire repair kit.
If the pressure is at 19 psi (1.3 bar) or above
repeat the inflation process to reach the
correct tire pressure and continue driving.
