What to do when a Tire Is Punctured
A tire puncture within the tire's tread area
can be repaired in two stages with the kit:
•
In the first stage, the tire will be reinflated
with a sealing compound and air. After
the tire has been inflated, you will need
to drive the vehicle about 3.7 mi (6 km)
to distribute the sealant in the tire.
•
In the second stage, you will need to
check the tire pressure and adjust, if
necessary, to the vehicle's specified tire
inflation pressure.
First Stage: Reinflating the Tire with
Sealing Compound and Air
WARNING
Do not stand directly beside the tire
while the compressor is operating. This
could cause personal injury if the tire bursts.
Note: If the tire does not inflate to the
recommended tire pressure within 15
minutes, stop and call roadside assistance.
WARNINGS
Watch the sidewall of the tire when
inflating. If any cracks, bumps or similar
damage appears, switch the compressor off
and let the air out by means of the pressure
relief valve. Do not continue driving with this
tire. This could cause loss of vehicle control.
Do not run the engine when operating
the air compressor unless the vehicle
is outdoors or in a well-ventilated area.
Preparation: Park the vehicle in a safe, level
and secure area, away from moving traffic.
Turn the hazard lights on. Apply the parking
brake and turn the engine off. Inspect the
flat tire for visible damage.
Sealant compound contains latex. Use
appropriate precautions to avoid any allergic
reactions.
Do not remove any foreign object that has
pierced the tire. If a puncture is located in
the tire sidewall, stop and call roadside
assistance.
1. Remove the valve cap from the tire valve.
2. Unwrap the dual purpose hose (black
tube) from the back of the compressor
housing.
3. Fasten the hose to the tire valve by
turning the connector clockwise. Tighten
the connection securely.
