❒

make sure that the switch for the

compressor is in position

(off), start

the engine, insert the plug into the
luggage compartment power socket or
on central tunnel and switch on the
compressor by bringing the switch to
position

(on);

❒

inflate the tyre to the pressure

indicated in the “Wheels” paragraph
(see “Technical data” chapter). In order
to obtain a more precise reading, check
the pressure value on pressure gauge
B with the compressor off;

❒

if after five minutes it is still impossible

to reach at least 1.8 bar, disengage
the compressor from the valve and
power socket, then move the vehicle
forwards by approx. ten metres in order
to distribute the sealing fluid inside the
tyre evenly, then repeat the inflation
operation;

❒

if after this operation you still cannot

reach at least 1.8 bar after 5 minutes
from switching on the compressor,
do not resume driving but contact a
Jeep Dealership;

❒

after having driven for about 10

minutes, stop and re-check the tyre
pressure; remember to engage the
electric parking brake;

❒

if a pressure value of at least 1.8 bar

is detected, restore the correct
pressure (with engine running and
electric parking brake), resume driving
immediately and drive with great care to
a Jeep Dealership.

WARNING

149)

Punctures on the sides of the tyre

may not be repaired. Do not use the TireKit
if the tyre is damaged due to travelling
when flat.

150)

Wear the protective gloves provided

with the TireKit.

151)

Apply the adhesive label where it can

be easily seen by the driver as a reminder
that the tyre has been treated with the
TireKit. Drive carefully, particularly on
bends. Do not exceed 80 km/h. Do not
accelerate or brake suddenly.

152)

If the pressure has fallen below 1.8

bar, do not drive any further: the TireKit
cannot guarantee proper hold because the
tyre is too damaged. Contact a Jeep
Dealership.

153)

You must always indicate that the tyre

was repaired using the TireKit. Give the
leaflet to the technicians who will be
handling the tyre that was treated using the
TireKit.

154)

Repair is not possible if the wheel rim

is damaged (groove is deformed, causing
air to escape). Do not remove foreign
bodies (screws or nails) from the tyre.

155)

Do not operate the compressor for

longer than 20 minutes consecutively. Risk
of overheating. The TireKit is not suitable
for definitive repairs, so the repaired tyres
may only be used temporarily.

156)

The bottle contains ethylene glycol

and latex: it may cause an allergic reaction.
It is harmful if swallowed. It is irritant for
the eyes. It may cause sensitisation if
inhaled or on contact. Avoid contact with
eyes, skin and clothes. In the case of
contact, wash immediately with plenty of
water. In the event that it is swallowed, do
not induce vomiting. Rinse out your mouth,
drink large quantities of water and seek
immediate medical attention. Keep out of
the reach of children. The product must
not be used by asthmatics. Do not inhale
the vapours during insertion and suction.
Call a doctor immediately if allergic
reactions are noted. Store the bottle in its
proper compartment, away from sources
of heat. The sealant fluid has an expiry
date. Replace the bottle containing
out-of-date sealant fluid.
