TYRE INFLATION KIT (4/4)
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 sticker,
which you must affix in a prominent
position on the dashboard, reminds
you of this.
Depending on the country or local
legislation, a tyre repaired with the
inflation kit may need to be replaced.
Once the tyre is correctly inflated,
remove the kit: slowly unscrew the in-
flation end piece to prevent any product
spatter and store the container in plas-
tic packaging to prevent product leaks.
– Affix the driving recommendation
label to the dashboard where it can
easily be seen by the driver;
– put the kit away;
– at the end of this initial inflation op-
eration, air will still escape from the
tyre; you must drive a short distance
in order to seal the hole;
– start immediately and drive at be-
tween 12.4 and 37.2 mph (20 and
60 km/h) in order to distribute the
product evenly in the tyre and, after
driving for 1.86 miles (3 km), stop
and check the pressure;
– if the pressure is greater than 1.3 bar
but less than the recommended
pressure, re-adjust it (refer to the
label affixed to the edge of the driv-
er’s door), otherwise contact an ap-
proved dealer: repair is not possible.
Precautions when using the kit
The kit should not be operated for more
than 15 consecutive minutes.
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.
