TYRE REPAIR KIT Your vehicle may not have a spare tyre. In this case it will have an emergency tyre repair kit that can be used to repair one flat tyre. The tyre repair kit is located in the spare wheel well. General information
WARNINGS
Depending on the type and extent of tyre damage, some tyres can only be partially sealed or not sealed at all.
Loss of tyre pressure can affect vehicle handling, leading to loss of vehicle control.
Do not use the tyre repair kit if the tyre has already been damaged as a result of being driven under inflated. Do not use the tyre repair kit on run flat tyres. Do not try to seal damage other than that located within the visible tread of the tyre. Do not try to seal damage to the tyre’s sidewall.
The tyre repair kit seals most tyre punctures [with a diameter of up to six millimetres (1/4 inch)] to temporarily restore mobility. Observe the following rules when using the kit:
•
•
• Drive with caution and avoid
making sudden steering or driving manoeuvres, especially if the vehicle is heavily loaded or you are towing a trailer. The kit will provide you with an emergency temporary repair, enabling you to continue your journey to the next vehicle or tyre dealer, or to drive a maximum distance of 200 kilometres (125 miles).
• Do not exceed a maximum speed of
80 km/h (50 mph). Keep the kit out of the reach of children.
• Only use the kit when the ambient
temperature is between –30°C (-22°F) and +70°C (+158°F).
Using the tyre repair kit WARNINGS
Compressed air can act as an explosive or propellant. Never leave the tyre repair kit unattended while in use.
CAUTION
Do not keep the compressor operating for more than 10 minutes.
Note: Use the tyre repair kit only for the vehicle with which it was supplied. • Park your vehicle at the roadside so that you do not obstruct the flow of traffic and so that you are able to use the kit without being in danger.
• Apply the parking brake, even if you have parked on a level road, to make sure that the vehicle will not move. • Do not attempt to remove foreign
objects like nails or screws penetrating the tyre.
121
Wheels and Tyres
•
Leave the engine running while the kit is in use, but not if the vehicle is in an enclosed or poorly ventilated area (for example, inside a building). In these circumstances, switch the compressor on with the engine turned off.
•
• Replace the sealant bottle with a new one before the expiry date (see top of bottle) is reached. Inform all other users of the vehicle that the tyre has been temporarily sealed with the tyre repair kit and make them aware of the special driving conditions to be observed.
Inflating the tyre
WARNINGS
Check the sidewall of the tyre prior to inflation. If there are any cracks, bumps or similar damage, do not
attempt to inflate the tyre.
Do not stand directly beside the tyre while the compressor is pumping. Watch the sidewall of the tyre. If any cracks, bumps or similar damage appear, turn off the compressor and let the air out by means of the pressure relief valve I. Do not continue driving with this tyre.
The sealant contains natural rubber latex. Avoid contact with skin and clothing. If this happens, rinse the
affected areas immediately with plenty of water and contact your doctor.
If the tyre inflation pressure does not
reach 1.8 bar (26 psi) within 10
minutes, the tyre may have suffered
excessive damage, making a temporary repair impossible. In this case, do not continue driving with this tyre.

minutes to an inflation pressure of
minimum 1.8 bar (26 psi) and a
maximum of 3.5 bar (51 psi). Move
the compressor switch G to position
0 and check the current tyre pressure
with pressure gauge E.
Note: If a tyre pressure of 1.8 bar (26 psi) is not reached do not continue. Note: When pumping in the sealant through the tyre valve, the pressure may rise up to 6 bar (87 psi) but will drop again after about 30 seconds. 13. Remove the power plug F from the
cigar lighter socket or auxiliary power socket.
12.
14. Quickly unscrew the hose C from the tyre valve. Fasten the valve cap again. Leave the sealant bottle B in the bottle holder D.
15.
16. Make sure the kit is stored safely, but
still easily accessible in the vehicle. The kit will be required again when you check the tyre pressure. Immediately drive approximately three kilometres (two miles) so that the sealant can seal the damaged area.
17.
WARNING
If you experience heavy vibrations, unsteady steering behaviour or noises while driving, reduce your speed and drive with caution to a place where it is safe for you to stop the vehicle. Recheck the tyre and its pressure. If the tyre pressure is less than 1 bar (14.7 psi) or if there are any cracks, bumps or similar damage visible, do not continue driving with this tyre.
18. Stop the vehicle after driving
approximately three kilometres (two miles). Check, and where necessary, adjust the pressure of the damaged tyre.
19. Attach the kit and read the tyre
pressure from the pressure gauge E.
20. Adjust it to the specified pressure.
See Technical Specifications (page 125).
21. Once you have inflated the tyre to its correct tyre pressure, move the compressor switch G to position 0, remove the power plug F from the socket, unscrew the hose C and fasten the valve cap.
22. Leave hose C and H connected to the
sealant bottle B and store the kit away safely.
123
Wheels and Tyres
23. Drive to the nearest tyre specialist to
get the damaged tyre replaced. Before the tyre is removed from the rim, inform your tyre dealer that the tyre contains sealant. Renew the sealant bottle B and hose C as soon as possible after they have been used.
Note: Remember that emergency roadside tyre repair kits only provide temporary mobility. Regulations concerning tyre repair after usage of tyre repair kit may differ from country to country. You should consult a tyre specialist for advice.
WARNING
Before driving, make sure the tyre is adjusted to the recommended inflation pressure. See Technical Specifications (page 125). Monitor the tyre pressure until the sealed tyre is replaced.
Empty sealant bottles can be disposed of together with normal household waste. Return remains of sealant to your dealer or dispose of it in compliance with local waste disposal regulations. TYRE CARE
To make sure the front and rear tyres of
your vehicle wear evenly and last longer,
we recommend that you swap the tyres
from front to rear and vice versa at regular
intervals of between 5000 and 10000
kilometres (3000 and 6000 miles).
CAUTION

Audio introduction
IMPORTANT AUDIO INFORMATION
WARNINGS
Due to technical incompatibility, recordable (CD-R) and rewritable (CD-RW) discs may not function
correctly.
These units will play compact discs that conform to the International Red Book standard audio
specification. Copy protected CDs from some manufacturers do not conform to this standard and playback cannot be guaranteed.
Dual format, dual sided discs (DVD Plus, CD-DVD format), adopted by the music industry, are thicker than normal CDs and consequently playback cannot be guaranteed, and jamming could occur. Irregular shaped CDs and CDs with a scratch protection film or self adhesive labels attached should not be used. Warranty claims, where this type of disc is found to be inside an audio unit returned for repair, will not be accepted.
All units except Sony CD (but not the 6CD) are designed to play commercially pressed 12 cm audio compact discs only. The Sony CD unit will play 8 cm discs with a Sony approved adaptor fitted (CSA-8).
The audio unit may be damaged if unsuitable items like credit cards or coins are pushed inside the CD
aperture. Audio unit labels
