TEMPORARY MOBILITY KIT (IF EQUIPPED)
Your vehicle may be equipped with a temporary mobility kit (located in
the spare tire well in the trunk). The temporary mobility kit consists of
an air compressor to reinflate the tire and a sealing compound that will
effectively seal most punctures caused by nails or similar objects. This
kit will provide a temporary seal allowing you to drive your vehicle up to
120 miles (200 km) at a maximum speed of 50 mph (80 km/h).
Note:
The temporary mobility kit is to be used for one tire only. See
your authorized dealer for additional kits.
General information
Failure to follow these guidelines could result in an increased
risk of loss of vehicle control, injury or death.
Do not attempt to repair punctures larger than
1
⁄
4
inch (6.4 mm) or
damage to the tire’s sidewall. The tire may not completely seal.
Note:
Do not use the temporary mobility kit if a tire has become
severely damaged by driving the vehicle with a tire that has insufficient
air pressure or is totally flat. Only punctured areas located within the tire
tread can be sealed with the temporary mobility kit.
Loss of air pressure may adversely affect tire performance. For this
reason:
•
Do not
drive the vehicle above 50 mph (80 km/h).
