!

Do not operate the air pump longer

than eight minutes without interrup-

tion. Otherwise it may overheat.

You may operate the air pump again af-

ter it has cooled off.

Warning! G

Follow recommend inflation pressures.

Do not overinflate tires. Overinflating tires

can result in sudden deflation (blowout) be-

cause they are more likely to become punc-

tured or damaged by road debris, potholes

etc.

Do not underinflate tires. Underinflated tires

wear unevenly, adversely affect handling

and fuel economy, and are more likely to fail

from being overheated.

i

The flat tire may be transported in the

trunk when the retractable hardtop is

lowered. Use the protective sheet pro-

vided with the spare wheel. Do not ac-

tivate the tire inflation pressure

monitor until the deflated tire has been

removed from the vehicle.
