Sealing A Tire With Tire Service Kit
(A) Whenever You Stop To Use Tire Service
Kit:
1. Pull over to a safe location and turn on the
vehicle’s Hazard Warning flashers.
2. Verify that the valve stem (on the wheel
with the deflated tire) is in a position that
is near to the ground. This will allow the
Tire Service Kit Hoses (3) and (5) to reach
the valve stem and keep the Tire Service
Kit flat on the ground. This will provide
the best positioning of the kit when inject-
ing the sealant into the deflated tire and
running the air pump. Move the vehicle as
necessary to place the valve stem in this
position before proceeding.
3. Place the transmission in PARK (auto
transmission) or in Gear (manual trans-
mission) and place the ignition in the OFF
position.
4. Apply the parking brake.
(B) Setting Up To Use Tire Service Kit:
1. Push in the Mode Select Knob (2) and
turn to the Sealant Mode position.
2. Uncoil the Sealant Hose (3) and then
remove the cap from the fitting at the end
of the hose.
3. Place the Tire Service Kit flat on the
ground next to the deflated tire.
