IN AN
EMERGENCY
It is of vital importance to communicate that the tyre has been repaired using the
quick tyre repair kit. Hand the instruction brochure to the personnel charged with
treating the tyre repaired with the kit.
WARNING
❒ if reaching the tyre pressure specified in paragraph “Inflation pressure”
in section “Technical Specifications”, start driving immediately;
❒ after driving for about 10 minutes stop and check again the tyre pres-
sure; pull up the handbrake;
❒ if at least 1.8 bar pressure is read, restore proper pressure (with engine
running and handbrake on) and restart;
❒ drive with the utmost care to the nearest Fiat Dealership.
FOR CHECKING AND RESTORING PRESSURE ONLY
The compressor can be also used just for restoring pressure. Disconnect
the quick connection and connect it directly to the tyre valve; in this way the
cylinder is not connected to compressor and the sealing fluid will not flow
into the tyre.
CYLINDER REPLACEMENT PROCEDURE
To replace the cylinder proceed as follows:
❒ disconnect connection A;
❒ turn counter-clockwise the cylinder to replace and raise it;
❒ fit the new cylinder and turn it clockwise;
❒ connect connection A to the cylinder and fit the transparent tube B in-
to the proper space.
