6.Unscrew valve cap from defective
tyre.
7. Screw the filler hose to the tyre valve.
8. The switch on the compressor must be set to J.
9. Connect the compressor plug to the power outlet or cigarette
lighter socket.
To avoid discharging the battery,
we recommend running the
engine.Set the rocker switch on the
compressor to I. The tyre is filled
with sealant.
10. The compressor pressure gauge briefly indicates up to 6 bar whilst
the sealant bottle is emptying
(approx. 30 seconds). Then the
pressure starts to drop.
11. All of the sealant is pumped into the tyre. Then the tyre is inflated.
12. The prescribed tyre pressure should be obtained within
10 minutes.
Tyre pressure 3 186.
When the correct pressure is
obtained, switch off the
compressor.If the prescribed tyre pressure is
not obtained within 10 minutes,
remove the tyre repair kit. Move
the vehicle one tyre rotation.
Reattach the tyre repair kit and
continue the filling procedure for 10 minutes. If the prescribed tyre
pressure is still not obtained, the
tyre is too badly damaged. Seek
the assistance of a workshop.
Drain excess tyre pressure with
the button over the pressure indicator.
Do not run the compressor for
longer than 10 minutes.
