Never operate the compressor for longer than 20
consecutive minutes. Risk of overheating. The kit is not
suitable for definitive repairs, so the repaired tyres

the sealing fluid and the cylinder disposed of in compliance
with national and local regulations.The bottle contains ethylene glycol and latex: it may
cause an allergic reaction. It is harmful if swallowed. It
is irritant for the eyes in case of contact. There could
be a reaction in the event of inhalation or contact. Avoid contact
