If the prescribed tyre pressure is not
reached within 10 minutes, detach the
tyre repair kit. Move the vehicle one tyre
revolution (approx. 2 metres) in or
against the flow of traffic. Reconnect
the tyre repair kit and continue the
filling procedure for 10 minutes. If the
prescribed tyre pressure is still not
reached, the tyre is too badly
damaged. Park the vehicle and consult
a workshop. We recommend your
Vauxhall Authorised Repairer.
Drain excess tyre pressure with the
button over the pressure indicator.
Do not run the compressor for more
than 10 minutes – see "Important
information" on page 259.

Detach the tyre repair kit. Screw the
filler hose to the free connection on the

Wipe away any sealant spill with a
cloth.

Dismantle the warning triangle and
stow it in the luggage compartment –

The enclosed sticker shows the
maximumpermitted speed at which the

Continue driving immediately to allow
the sealant to distribute evenly
throughout the tyre. Stop after approx.
6
miles (10 km) but no more than 10
minutes, and check tyre pressure. Screw
the compressor air hose directly onto
the tyre valve (see Fig. 17256 T).

If tyre pressure is more than 1.3 bar
(19
psi), adjust to the prescribed value.
Repeat the procedure until there is no
more pressure loss.
If tyre pressure is below 1.3 bar (19 psi),
the vehicle must not be driven. Consult
a workshop. We recommend your
Vauxhall Authorised Repairer.
