Wheels And Tires; General Information; Tire Sealant And Inflator Kit - Ford Taurus2017 Owner's Manual

GENERAL INFORMATION

A decal with tire pressure data is located
in the driver's door opening.
Check and set the tire pressure at the
ambient temperature in which you are
intending to drive your vehicle and when
the tires are cold.
Note: Check your tire pressures regularly to
optimize fuel economy.
Note: Use only approved wheel and tire
sizes. Using other sizes could damage your
vehicle and will make the National Type
Approval invalid.
Note: If you change the diameter of the tires
from that fitted at the factory, the
speedometer may not display the correct
speed. Take your vehicle to an authorized
dealer to have the engine management
system reprogrammed.
TIRE SEALANT AND INFLATOR
KIT
(If Equipped)
Note: The temporary mobility kit canister
contains enough sealant compound for one
tire repair only. See your authorized Ford
dealer for additional replacement sealant
canisters.
The kit is located under the load floor of
the trunk. The kit consists of an air
compressor to inflate the tire and a sealing
compound in a canister that will effectively
seal most punctures caused by nails or
similar objects. This kit will provide a
temporary tire repair allowing you to drive
your vehicle up to 120 mi (200 km) at a
maximum speed of 50 mph (80 km/h) to
reach a tire service location.
