gine and fit plug D-fig. 15 into the cig-
ar lighter outlet and then turn on the
compressor by setting switch E-fig. 16
to I (on). Inflate the tyre to the pres-
sure specified in paragraph “Cold tyre
inflation pressure” in section “Techni-
cal Specifications”. Check tyre pressure
on gauge F-fig. 16 with compressor off
to obtain precise reading;
❒ If after 5 minutes it is still impossible
to reach at least 1.5 bar, disengage com-
pressor from valve and current outlet,
then move the car forth for approx. ten
metres in order to distribute the seal-
ing fluid inside the tyre evenly, then re-
peat the inflation operation;
❒ If after this operation it is still impossi-
ble after 5 minutes to reach at least 1.8
bar, do not start driving since the tyre
is excessively damaged and the quick
tyre repair kit cannot guarantee suit-
able sealing, contact Fiat Dealership;

tions”, start driving immediately;
