When the tread pattern wears to the point where the indicator 2 protrusions become visible, the tyres must be replaced, as the tread depth has decreased to 1.6 mm, which results in poor grip on wet roads.
Overloading the vehicle, driving for long periods on highways, especially in hot weather, or constantly driving on poorly-surfaced roads will cause rapid tire wear and reduce safety.
Tire inflation kit
The kit is designed to repair the tread of tire A, the damage size of which does not exceed 4 millimeters. It is not suitable for repairing damage larger than 4 millimeters and cuts on the sidewall of the tire B.
Note: Do not use the kit if the tire is damaged due to a puncture.
Before carrying out repairs, carefully inspect the sidewalls of the tires.

The given repair method is a temporary measure.
While driving, due to the presence of a special agent in the tire, slight vibration may be felt.
Do not use the kit to inflate the tires of another vehicle or any other inflatable objects (inflatable ring, boat, etc.).
The expiration date of the product is indicated on the label on the can. Check if the expiration date of the product has not expired.
To replace the tire inflation tube and the bottle with the product, contact a service station.
Attention: The kit should not operate for more than 15 minutes continuously.
Depending on the vehicle configuration, in case of a puncture, use the kit located under the luggage compartment carpet: open the kit, remove plugs 1 and 3 (do not remove the cylinder cap), then screw the cylinder 2 onto its holder 3.
With the ignition on:
- connector 8 to the accessory socket on the vehicle's dashboard;
- unscrew the valve cap of the corresponding wheel and screw the tip of the inflation hose 6 onto the valve;
- press switch 5 to inflate the tire to the specified pressure (see the label attached to the end of the driver's door);
- no later than 7 minutes later stop inflating the tire and check the air pressure in it (according to the pressure gauge 4);
- bring the pressure to the norm: increase it by continuing to inflate the tire using the kit, or decrease it by pressing button 7 on the inflation tip.
Note.
- While the cylinder is being emptied (about 30 seconds), the pressure on the pressure gauge 4 can reach 6 bar for a short time, then the pressure drops.
- If the pressure still has not reached the norm, tire repair is not possible, do not move and contact a service station.
Once normal tire pressure is reached:
- stop working;
- close the cap built into the cylinder;
- remove the plug from the socket 8;
- place the speed reminder sticker 10 in a prominent place on the dashboard;
- put the kit away.
Start driving and after about 3 km or no more than 10 minutes of driving, stop and check the pressure using a tire inflation kit. If the pressure is higher than 1.3 bar, bring it up to the norm.
Attention. After repairs made with the kit, the vehicle mileage should not exceed 200 km, and the speed should not exceed 80 km/h.
