The Inflator Kit is stored in the boot compartment where the traditional spare wheel would have been stored.

Remove the compressor unit and inflator canister from the bag.

Pull out the lead from the compressor and plug into the cigarette lighter in the cabin (this can be Inside the front centre armrest in some models)

Remove the valve cap from the wheel with the flat tyre.

Remove the protector caps from both sides of the inflator canister. Attach one side of the canister to the wheel keeping the canister in an upright position, and attach the compressor to the other side.

Turn on the compressor with your engine running and the tyre will inflate, turn it off when it reaches the required pressure.

Remove the canister connection from your wheel and replace the valve cap.

PLEASE HAVE YOUR TYRE INSPECTED ASAP
