If a tyre goes flat, avoid further tyre
and wheel damage by driving slowly
to a level place. Turn on the hazard
warning flashers. See
.
See
for other
important safety warnings.
Do not remove any objects that have
penetrated the tyre.
1. Remove the tyre sealant and
compressor kit from its storage
location. See
2. Unwrap the sealant/air hose (6)
and the power plug (8).
3. Place the kit on the ground.
Make sure the tyre valve stem is
positioned close to the ground so
the hose will reach it.
4. Remove the valve stem cap from
the flat tyre by turning it
anticlockwise.
5. Attach the sealant/air hose (6)
onto the tyre valve stem. Turn it
clockwise until it is tight.
6. Plug the power plug (8) into the
accessory power outlet in the
vehicle. Unplug all items from
other accessory power outlets.
See
.
If the vehicle has an accessory
power outlet, do not use the
cigarette lighter.
If the vehicle only has a cigarette
lighter, use the cigarette lighter.
Do not pinch the power plug
cord in the door or window.
7. Start the vehicle. The vehicle
must be running while using the
air compressor.
8. Press and turn the selector
switch (1) anticlockwise to the
S Air position.
9. Press the on/off (2) button to
turn the tyre sealant and
compressor kit on.
The compressor will inject
sealant and air into the tyre.
The pressure gauge (3) will
initially show a high pressure
while the compressor pushes the
sealant into the tyre. Once the
sealant is completely dispersed
into the tyre, the pressure will
quickly drop and start to rise
again as the tyre inflates with
air only.
10. Inflate the tyre to the
recommended inflation pressure
using the pressure gauge (3). The
recommended inflation pressure
can be found on the Tyre and
Loading Information label. See
.
The pressure gauge (3) may read
higher than the actual tyre
pressure while the compressor is
on. Turn the compressor off to
get an accurate pressure reading.
The compressor may be turned
on/off until the correct pressure
is reached.
Caution
If the recommended pressure
cannot be reached after
approximately 25 minutes, the
vehicle should not be driven farther.
