Vehicle tyres or tyre valves are suscep-

Risk of explosion!
Do not spray flammable liquids.
Never draw in fluids containing solvents

highly inflammable, explosive and poi-
sonous. Do not use acetone, undiluted
acids and solvents as they are damag-
ing to the materials from which the ap-
pliance is made.
