Z06 models do not have Extended Mobility Tires. If a
Z06 model tire goes flat, avoid further tire and wheel
damage by driving slowly to a level place and stopping.
Then do this:
1. Turn on the hazard warning flashers.
2. Set the parking brake firmly.
3. Put the shift lever (manual transmission) in
REVERSE (R).
4. Turn off the engine.
5. Inspect the flat tire.
If the tire has been separated from the wheel or has
damaged sidewalls or large tears that allow rapid
air loss, call a tire repair facility. See Roadside
Assistance Program on page 7-6.
If the flat tire is due to a slow leak caused by a nail
or other similar road hazard, the tire inflator kit may be
used to repair the damaged tire temporarily. The kit
uses a liquid tire sealant to seal small punctures in the
tread area of the tire. The flat tire is then inflated to at
least 26 psi (179 kPa) and driven to evenly distribute the
tire sealant. The tire pressure is checked after driving
for a maximum of 10 minutes to see if the slow leak has
been stopped. If the tire pressure is 19 psi (131 kPa)
or more, inflate the tire up to the standard operating
pressure as shown on the Tire Pressure
Label found on the rear edge of the driver’s door.
See Inflation - Tire Pressure on page 5-62.
You should have the damaged tire repaired as soon as
possible. The tire sealant is a temporary repair only.
For more information regarding the tire inflator kit
see “Tire Inflator Kit (Z06 Only)” following this section.
Notice: If the tire pressure has dropped below
19 psi (131 kPa), the vehicle should not be driven
further. Damage to the tire may be severe and
the sealant will not be effective. Contact Roadside
Assistance. See “Roadside Assistance” in the Index.
