This kit will provide a temporary tire seal, allowing you to
drive your vehicle up to 100 miles (160 km) with a

The Tire Service Kit is located under the passenger seat.
Tire Service Kit Usage
If a tire is punctured, you can make a first emergency repair
using the Tire Service Kit located under the passenger seat.
Tire punctures of up to 1/4” (6 mm) can be repaired; the kit
can be used in all weather conditions. Do not remove the
foreign object from the punctured tire, i.e., screw or nail.
Remove the Tire Service Kit from the vehicle, take it out
from the bag and place it near the punctured tire. Screw the
clear flexible filling tube to the tire valve.
WARNING!
•
Do not attempt to seal a tire on the side of the vehicle
closest to traffic. Pull far enough off the road to avoid
the danger of being hit when using the Tire Service Kit.
