The tyre repair kit is located in thespare wheel well.

133

Wheels and tyres

General information

WARNINGSDepending on the type andextent of tyre damage, some

tyres can only be partially sealed ornot sealed at all. Loss of tyrepressure can affect vehicle handling,leading to loss of vehicle control.

Do not use the tyre repair kit ifthe tyre has already been

damaged as a result of being drivenunder inflated.

Do not try to seal damage otherthan that located within the

visible tread of the tyre.

Do not try to seal damage to thetyre’s sidewall.

The tyre repair kit seals most tyrepunctures [with a diameter of up tosix millimetres (1/4 inch)] totemporarily restore mobility.

Observe the following rules whenusing the kit:

• Drive with caution and avoidmaking sudden steering ordriving manoeuvres,especially if the vehicle is heavilyloaded or you are towing a trailer.

• The kit will provide you with anemergency temporary repair,enabling you to continue yourjourney to the next vehicle or tyredealer, or to drive a maximumdistance of 200 kilometres(125 miles).

• Do not exceed a maximumspeed of 80 km/h (50 mph).

• Keep the kit out of the reach ofchildren.

• Only use the kit when the ambienttemperature is between –30°C(-22°F) and +70°C (+158°F).

Using the tyre repair kit

WARNINGSCompressed air can act as anexplosive or propellant.

Never leave the tyre repair kitunattended while in use.

CAUTION

Do not keep the compressoroperating for more than 10

minutes.

Note: Use the tyre repair kit only forthe vehicle with which it was supplied.

• Park your vehicle at the roadsideso that you do not obstruct theflow of traffic and so that you areable to use the kit without beingin danger.

• Apply the parking brake, even ifyou have parked on a level road,to make sure that the vehicle willnot move.

• Do not attempt to remove foreignobjects like nails or screwspenetrating the tyre.

134

Wheels and tyres

• Leave the engine running whilethe kit is in use, but not if thevehicle is in an enclosed or poorlyventilated area (for example,inside a building). In thesecircumstances, switch thecompressor on with the engineturned off.

• Replace the sealant bottle with anew one before the expiry date(see top of bottle) is reached.

• Inform all other users of thevehicle that the tyre has beentemporarily sealed with the tyrerepair kit and make them awareof the special driving conditions tobe observed.

Inflating the tyre

WARNINGSCheck the sidewall of the tyreprior to inflation. If there are any

cracks, bumps or similar damage, donot attempt to inflate the tyre.

Do not stand directly beside thetyre while the compressor is

pumping.

WARNINGSWatch the sidewall of the tyre.If any cracks, bumps or similar

damage appear, turn off thecompressor and let the air out bymeans of the pressure relief valve B.Do not continue driving with this tyre.

The sealant contains naturalrubber latex. Avoid contact with

skin and clothing. If this happens,rinse the affected areas immediatelywith plenty of water and contact yourdoctor.

If the tyre inflation pressure doesnot reach 1.8 bar (26 psi) within

seven minutes, the tyre may havesuffered excessive damage, makinga temporary repair impossible. In thiscase, do not continue driving with thistyre.

CAUTION

Screwing the bottle onto thebottle holder will pierce the seal

of the bottle. Do not unscrew thebottle from the holder as the sealantwill escape.
