Vehicle Care
The pressure gauge (3) will
initially show a high pressure
while the compressor pushes
the sealant into the tyre. Once
the sealant is completely
dispersed into the tyre, the
pressure will quickly drop and
start to rise again as the tyre
inflates with air only.
10. Inflate the tyre to the
recommended inflation
pressure using the pressure
gauge (3). The recommended
inflation pressure can be found
on the Tyre and Loading
Information label. See Tyre
Pressure 0 289.
The pressure gauge (3) may
read higher than the actual tyre
pressure while the compressor
is on. Turn the compressor off
to get an accurate pressure
reading. The compressor may
be turned on/off until the
correct pressure is reached.
Caution
If the recommended pressure
cannot be reached after
approximately 25 minutes, the
vehicle should not be driven
farther. The tyre is too severely
damaged and the tyre sealant
and compressor kit cannot inflate
the tyre. Remove the power plug
from the accessory power outlet
and unscrew the inflating hose
from the tyre valve.
11. Press the on/off button (2) to
turn the tyre sealant and
compressor kit off.
The tyre is not sealed and will
continue to leak air until the
vehicle is driven and the
sealant is distributed in the
tyre, therefore, Steps 12
18 must be done immediately
after Step 11.
Be careful while handling the
tyre sealant and compressor kit
as it could be warm after
usage.
12. Unplug the power plug (8) from
the accessory power outlet in
the vehicle.
13. Turn the sealant/air hose (6)
anticlockwise to remove it from
the tyre valve stem.
14. Replace the tyre valve
stem cap.
15. Replace the sealant/air hose
(6), and the power plug (8)
back in their original location.
16. If the flat tyre was able to
inflate to the recommended
inflation pressure, remove the
maximum speed label from the
sealant canister (5) and place it
in a highly visible location. Do
not exceed the speed on this
label until the damaged tyre is
repaired or replaced.
