Attaching Injection Hose To Sealant Bottle - Fiat 124 SPIDER 2017 Owner's Manual

Mexico Market
Proceed as follows:
1. Pull over to a safe location and turn
on the vehicle's hazard warning lights.
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. Shift the gear selector to Reverse (R)
for a manual transmission, and shift the
gear selector to Park (P) for an
automatic transmission.
4. Apply the parking brake with the
brake pedal depressed and turn off the
engine.
5. Unload passengers and cargo and
remove the tire service kit.
6. Shake the tire sealant well. If the
bottle is shaken after the injection hose
is screwed on, tire sealant could spray
out from the injection hose. Tire sealant
contacting clothing or other objects
may be impossible to remove. Shake
the bottle before screwing on the
injection hose.
Note:
Do not shake the bottle
excessively. Otherwise, the sealant
could spray out of the injection hose,
and if the sealant contacts clothing or
other objects, you may not be able to
remove it.
The sealant hardens easily and
injecting it will be difficult under cold
weather conditions (32 °F (0 °C) or
below). Warm the sealant inside the
vehicle to facilitate injection.
7. Remove the cap from the bottle.
Screw on the injection hose with the
bottle's inner cap left on to break the
inner cap.

8. Remove the valve cap from the flat
tire. Push the back of a valve core tool
to the core of the tire valve and bleed
out all of the remaining air.
