5.With the compressor switched off, insertthe plug into the power socket inside the
vehicle.6.With the ignition switched on or the engine running, switch on the compressor.
Let the compressor run for max. 10 minutes to
fill the tire with sealant and achieve a tire infla~
tion pressure of approx. 2.5 bar.
While the tire is being filled with sealant, the tire inflation pressure may sporadically reach
approx. 5 bar. Do not switch off the compressor
at this point.
