jet and may burst. The first indication of
this is a discolouration of the tyre. Dam-
aged vehicle tyres/tyre valves are high-
ly dangerous. Ensure that a distance of
at least 30 cm is observed when clean-

acids and solvents as they are damag-
ing to the materials from which the ap-
pliance is made.
