12. After injecting the sealant, securely fit the
valve remover (E) into the end of the filler
hose (J) to prevent sealant from leaking
from the empty bottle.
13. Pull out the compressor hose (K) from the
side of the tyre compressor, and then
securely attach the hose to the tyre valve
(D).
14. Place the compressor (L) with its air pres-
sure gauge (M) on top.
Pull out the compressor’s power cord (N),
insert the plug on the cord into the acces-
sory socket (O), and then turn the ignition
switch to the “ACC” position or put the
operation mode in ACC. (Refer to
“Accessory socket” on page 7-14.)
Turn ON the compressor switch (P) and
inflate the tyre to the specified pressure.
(Refer to “Tyre inflation pressures” on
page 10-10.)
15. Check and adjust the tyre pressure with
reference to the air pressure gauge on the
compressor. If you overinflate the tyre,
release air by loosening the hose’s end fit-
ting.
If there is a gap between the tyre and
wheel because the tyre has moved inward
from the wheel rim, press the periphery of
the tyre towards the wheel to close the gap
before running the compressor. (With no
gaps, the tyre pressure will rise.)
CAUTION
 The supplied compressor is designed only
for inflation of your vehicle tyres.
 The compressor is designed to run on a vehi-
cle’s 12 V power supply. Do not connect it to
any other power source.
 The compressor is not waterproof. If you use
it in rain, make sure water does not get on it.
 Any sand or dust sucked into the compressor
could make the compressor break down. Do
not place the compressor directly on any
sandy or dusty surface when using it.

Do not disassemble or modify the compres-
sor. Also, do not subject the air pressure
gauge to shock. It could malfunction.
CAUTION
 Be careful not to get your fingers trapped
between the tyre and wheel as the tyre
inflates.
