After provisionally repairing a tyre using the repair aerosol, you are advised not to drive at over 80km/h.
If your vehicle has no spare wheel, a repair aerosol is to be found in the boot.

Advice - Recommendations
A punctured tyre should always be removed from the rim and thoroughly examined for dam-age before attempting any repair. When a repair is possible, it should be carried out as soon as possible to prevent further damage to the tyre.
Tyre repair should be carried out by a tyre specialist who will assume responsibility for the repair.Note:The towing eye is stowed either in the repair aerosol box or in the tool kit.
If there are two repair aerosols, this means that you need to use both of them for the temporary repair of the tyre.
