IN CASE OF EMERGENCY
101
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 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 injecting 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 (P) and
place the ignition in the OFF position.
4. Apply the parking brake.
5. Remove speed limit sticker off of the
sealant cartridge and place it inside the
vehicle visually available for the driver to
see.
Setting Up To Use The Tire Service Kit
1. Uncoil the Sealant Hose.
2. Place the Tire Service Kit flat on the ground
next to the deflated tire.
3. Remove the cap from the valve stem and
then screw the fitting at the end of the
Sealant Hose onto the valve stem.
4. Uncoil the Power Plug and insert the plug
into the vehicle’s 12 Volt power outlet.
NOTE:
Do not remove foreign objects (e.g., screws or
nails) from the tire.
Injecting Sealant Into The Tire
1. Always start the engine before turning on
the Tire Service Kit.
2. After pushing the Power Button, the sealant
(white fluid) will flow from the sealant
cartridge through the sealant hose and into
the tire. As the sealant flows through the
sealant hose, the pressure gauge can read
as high as 70 psi (4.8 Bar). The pressure
gauge will decrease quickly from approxi
-
mately 70 psi (4.8 Bar) to the actual tire
pressure when the sealant cartridge is
empty.
NOTE:
Sealant may leak out through the puncture in
the tire.
3. The pump will start to inject air into the tire
immediately after the sealant cartridge is
empty. Continue to operate the pump and
inflate the tire to the pressure indicated on
the tire pressure label on the driver-side
latch pillar (recommended pressure). Check
the tire pressure by looking at the pressure
gauge.
NOTE:
If the tire does not inflate to at least
26 psi (1.8 Bar) pressure within 15 minutes
the tire is too badly damaged. Do not attempt
to drive the vehicle further. Call for assis
-
tance.
Do not let the compressor be turned on for
more than 20 consecutive minutes. The
pump may overheat.
Drive Vehicle
Immediately after injecting sealant and inflating
the tire, drive the vehicle 5 miles (8 km) or
10 minutes to ensure distribution of the Tire
Service Kit Sealant within the tire. Do not
exceed 50 mph (80 km/h).
WARNING!
Tire Service Kit is not a permanent flat tire
repair. Have the tire inspected and repaired
or replaced after using Tire Service Kit. Do
not exceed 50 mph (80 km/h) until the tire is
repaired or replaced. Failure to follow this
warning can result in injuries that are serious
or fatal to you, your passengers, and others
around you.
