Temporarily repairing a flat tire
Before using the tire sealing system, observe the following:
WARNING!
Never leave the tire sealing system unattended when it is operating.
Keep the tire sealing system kit away from children.
The vehicle's engine should be running when the tire sealing system is used to avoid battery drain. Therefore, be
sure the vehicle is parked in a well ventilated place before using the system.
Be sure the vehicle is parked safely off the road and away from moving traffic.
Apply the parking brake.
Do not remove any foreign objects (nails, etc.) from the tire.
Temporarily repairing a flat tire is done in two stages.
In the first stage, the hole is sealed by pumping sealing compound into the tire. The car is then driven a short
distance to distribute the sealing compound in the tire.
In the second stage, the tire's inflation pressure is checked and adjusted if necessary.
Stage 1: Sealing the hole
Peel off the speed limit sticker (1) and affix it to the steering wheel hub where it will be clearly visible to the driver.
Ensure that the orange switch (2) is in position 0 (the 0 side of the switch should be pressed down).
Pull out the electrical wire (5) and hose (4) from the side compartment (3).
Remove the valve cap from the tire's inflation valve and screw the hose connector onto the valve as tightly as
possible by hand.
Connect the electrical wire to the nearest 12-volt socket in the vehicle.
Release the safety catch (6) and turn the orange colored section of the sealing kit (7), which holds the sealing
compound container, 90 degrees until it clicks into the vertical position.
Start the vehicle's engine.
Start the tire sealing system's compressor by pressing the switch (2) to position I.
NOTE: The air pressure gauge (9) will temporarily show an increase in pressure to approximately 88 psi (6 bar) while
the sealing compound is being pumped into the tire. The pressure should return to a normal level after approximately
one minute.
