Range Rover Evoque: Using the repair kit
Avoid skin contact with the
sealant
which contains natural rubber latex.
Do not unscrew the sealant bottle from
the receiver until it is empty, as
sealant will leak out.
If the tyre inflation pressure does not
reach 1.8 bar (26 lb/in²) within seven
minutes, the tyre may have suffered
excessive damage. A temporary
repair will not be possible, and the
vehicle should not be driven until the
tyre has been replaced.
Before attempting a tyre
repair, ensure
that the vehicle is parked safely, as far
away from passing traffic as possible.
Ensure that the parking brake is applied,
and P is selected if an automatic
transmission is fitted.
Do not attempt to remove foreign
objects such as nails, screws, etc. from
the tyre.
Always run the engine when using the
compressor, unless the vehicle is in an
enclosed, or poorly ventilated space.
To prevent overheating do not operate
the compressor continuously for longer
than ten minutes.
Note: All vehicle drivers and occupants should be made aware that a temporary repair has been made to a tyre fitted to the vehicle. They should also be made aware of the special driving conditions imposed when using a repaired tyre.
