Using the Land Rover tyre repair kit
Note: All vehicle drivers and occupants should
be made aware that a temporary repair has
been made to a tyre fitted to the vehicle. They
should also be made aware of the special
driving conditions im posed when using a
repaired tyre. Repair procedure
1. Open the tyre repair kit and peel off the
maximum speed label. Attach the label to
the facia in the driver's field of view. Take
care not to obstruct any of the instruments
or warning lights.
2. Uncoil the compressor power cable and
the inflation hose.
3. Unscrew the orange cap from the sealant
bottle receiver, and the sealant bottle cap.
4. Screw the sealant bottle into the receiver
(clockwise) until tight.
• Screwing the bottle onto the receiver will
pierce the bottle's se al. Do not unscrew
a full, or partly us ed bottle from the
receiver. Doing so will result in the
sealant leaking from the bottle.
5. Remove the valve cap from the damaged
tyre.
6. Remove the protective cap from the
inflation hose, and c onnect the inflation
hose to the tyre valve. Ensure that the hose
is screwed on firmly.
7. Ensure that the compressor switch is in
the off ( O) position.
8. Insert the power cable connector into an
auxiliary power socket. See AUXILIARY
POWER SOCKETS (page 110).
9. Unless the vehicle is in an enclosed or
poorly ventilated area , start the engine.
10. Set the compressor switch to the on ( l)
position.
11. Inflate the tyre to a minimum of 1.8 bar (26
lb/in²) and a maximum of 3.5 bar (51
lb/in²).
†
WARNINGS
Avoid skin contact with the sealant
which contains natu ral rubber latex.
Do not unscrew the sealant bottle from the
receiver until it is empty, as sealant will leak
out.
If the tyre inflation pressure does not
reach 1.8 bar (26 lb/in²) within seven
minutes, the tyre may have suffered excessive
damage. A temporary repair will not be
possible, and the vehicle should not be driven
until the tyre has been replaced.
CAUTIONS
Before attempting a tyre repair, ensure
that the vehicle is parked safely, as far
away from passing traffic as possible.
Ensure that the parki ng brake is applied,
and P is selected if an automatic
transmission is fitted.
Do not attempt to remove foreign objects
such as nails, screws, etc from the tyre.
Always run the engine when using the
compressor, unless the vehicle is in an
enclosed, or poorly ventilated space.
To prevent overheating do not operate
the compressor continuously for longer
than ten minutes.
