“R” (Reverse) if your vehicle has a
manual transaxle.
Turn on the hazard warning flasher if
your vehicle is near traffic.
Block the front and rear of the wheel
diagonally opposite of the wheel being
repaired.

If the tire cannot be inflated to the required
air pressure within 5 minutes, move the
vehicle a few meters back and forth to
spread the sealant over the entire tire.
Then, inflate the tire again.
If the tire still cannot be inflated to the
required air pressure, the tire may be
severely damaged. In this case, the flat tire
repair kit cannot provide the necessary
seal. Consult a SUZUKI dealer or a road-
side assistance service.
NOTE:
If the tire is over-inflated, deflate air by
loosening the filler hose.
7) Switch off the compressor. Pull out the
power plug from the accessory socket.
8) Disconnect the filler hose of the sealant
bottle from the tire valve.
9) Push the release button on side and
detach the sealant bottle.
