Tyre inflation kit

The kit
repairs tyres damaged on tread A by objects under 4 millimetres. It does not repair all types of punctures, such as cuts longer than 4 millimetres or cuts on the tyre sidewall B... Also make sure your rim is in good condition.

Do not remove the foreign object that caused the puncture if it is still in the tyre.

Do
not use the inflation kit if the tyre has been damaged by driving on a flat tyre.

Therefore, carefully inspect the tyre sidewalls before any intervention.

Likewise, driving on underinflated or even flat (punctured) tyres may compromise safety and may make the tyre unrepairable.

This repair is temporary

A punctured tyre must always be inspected (and repaired if possible) by a specialist as soon as possible.

When replacing a tyre repaired with this kit, you must inform the specialist.

While driving, you may feel vibration due to the product inside the tyre.

The kit is
approved only for inflating the tyres of the vehicle originally equipped with this kit.

Under no circumstances should it be used to inflate the tyres of another vehicle or any other inflatable object (ring buoy, boat, etc.).

Avoid contact of the repair liquid bottle with skin. If droplets escape, rinse thoroughly.

Keep the repair kit out of reach of children.

Do not dispose of the empty bottle in the environment. Return it to an authorised dealer or to a body responsible for its collection.

The bottle has a limited service life, indicated on its label.

Check the expiry date.

Visit a brand representative to replace the inflation hose and the repair liquid bottle.

Inflation kit C

Depending on the vehicle, in the event of a puncture, use the tyre inflation kit.

Before
using the kit, park the vehicle far enough from the traffic lane, switch on the hazard warning lights and apply the parking brake. Get all occupants out of the vehicle and keep them away from the traffic lane.

• Remove the compressor 4 and the bottle 1 located under the luggage compartment floor;
• unroll the inflation hose 8 and the electrical cable 9 located under the compressor and the inflation hose 10. Secure the bottle to its holder 3 and screw the inflation hose 8 onto the connector 2.

Engine running, parking brake applied:

• unscrew the valve cap of the affected wheel and screw the inflation hose 10 onto the valve;
• connect the plug 9 to an accessory socket in the vehicle (refer to the "Accessory sockets" section in chapter 3), then press switch 7 to inflate the tyre to the recommended pressure (refer to the label on the driver's door edge);
• stop inflating after 5 minutes at most, then read the pressure on gauge 6. To adjust the pressure if necessary: continue inflating to increase it, or press button 5 to decrease it.

If a minimum pressure of 1.8 bar is not reached after 15 minutes, the repair is not possible. Do not drive the vehicle; contact an authorised dealer.

If
you park on the side of the road, you must warn other road users of your vehicle's presence using a warning triangle or other devices required by the local legislation of the country where you are.

Once the tyre is correctly inflated:

• stop the kit;
• slowly unscrew both inflation connectors 8 and 10;
• screw connector 10 onto the bottle so as to avoid spraying the product;

No object
must be placed at the driver's feet: in the event of sudden braking, such objects may slide under the pedals and prevent their use.

• stick the driving instruction label, located under the bottle 1, in a place visible to the driver on the dashboard;
• store the kit;
• at the end of the first inflation operation the tyre will still leak, so it is essential to drive the vehicle to seal the hole;
• start immediately and drive at between 20 and 60 km/h so as to distribute the product evenly inside the tyre, then after 3 km of driving, stop to check the pressure;
• readjust the pressure if it is above 1.3 bar but below the recommended value (refer to the label on the driver's door edge); otherwise contact an authorised dealer, as the repair is not possible.

Note: after using the inflation kit, remember to visit an authorised dealer to replace the inflation hose and the repair product bottle.

Precautions for using the kit

The kit must not operate for more than 15 consecutive minutes.

Warning:
a missing or loosely fitted valve cap may affect tyre sealing and cause pressure loss.

Always keep valve caps identical to the original ones and fully tightened.

After a
repair using the kit, do not drive more than 200 km.

In addition, reduce your speed and, in all cases, do not exceed 80 km/h. The label you must stick in a visible place on the dashboard is a reminder of this.

Depending on the country or local legislation, a tyre repaired with the tyre inflation kit may have to be replaced.

Inflation kit D

Depending on the vehicle, in the event of a puncture, use the kit located in the luggage compartment or under the luggage compartment floor covering.

Before
using the kit, park the vehicle far enough from the traffic lane, switch on the hazard warning lights and apply the parking brake. Get all occupants out of the vehicle and keep them away from the traffic lane.

Engine running, parking brake applied:

• unroll the bottle hose;
• connect hose 13 of the compressor to the inlet of bottle 18;
• depending on the vehicle, connect or screw bottle 18 onto the compressor at the bottle recess 17;
• unscrew the valve cap of the affected wheel and screw on the inflation connector of bottle 11;
• be sure to connect plug 12 to an accessory socket in the vehicle;
• press switch 14 to inflate the tyre to the recommended pressure (refer to the section "Tyre inflation pressure");
• after 15 minutes at most, stop inflating to read the pressure (on gauge 15).

  Note: while the bottle empties (about 30 seconds), gauge 15 briefly shows a pressure of up to 6 bar, then the pressure drops.

• adjust the pressure: to increase it, continue inflating with the kit; to decrease it, press button 16.

If a minimum pressure of 1.8 bar is not reached after 15 minutes, the repair is not possible. Do not drive the vehicle; contact an authorised dealer.

If
you park on the side of the road, you must warn other road users of your vehicle's presence using a warning triangle or other devices required by the local legislation of the country where you are.

Once the tyre is correctly inflated, remove the kit: slowly unscrew inflation connector 11 so as to avoid spraying the product, and store the bottle in a plastic bag to prevent the product from leaking.

No object
must be placed at the driver's feet: in the event of sudden braking, such objects may slide under the pedals and prevent their use.

• Stick the driving recommendation label in a place visible to the driver on the dashboard.
• Stow the kit.
• At the end of the first inflation operation, the tyre will still leak; it is essential to drive the vehicle to seal the hole.
• Start immediately and drive between 20 and 60 km/h to distribute the product evenly inside the tyre. After 3 kilometres of driving, stop and check the pressure.
• If the pressure is above 1.3 bar but below the recommended pressure, adjust it (see the label stuck on the driver's door pillar). Otherwise, contact a brand representative: the repair is not possible.

Precautions for using the kit

The kit must not operate for more than 15 consecutive minutes.

Warning:
a missing or loosely fitted valve cap may affect tyre sealing and cause pressure loss.

Always keep valve caps identical to the original ones and fully tightened.

After a
repair using the kit, do not drive more than 200 km.

In addition, reduce your speed and, in all cases, do not exceed 80 km/h. The label you must stick in a visible place on the dashboard is a reminder of this.

Depending on the country or local legislation, a tyre repaired with the tyre inflation kit may have to be replaced.
