Tire Service Kit Usage Precautions

• Replace the Tire Service Kit Sealant Bottle
(1) and Sealant Hose (6) prior to the expira-
tion date (printed at the lower right hand
corner on the bottle label) to assure optimum
operation of the system. Refer to "Sealing a
Tire with Tire Service Kit" section (F) "Sealant
Bottle and Hose Replacement".
Tire Service Kit Expiration Date Location
• The Sealant Bottle (1) and Sealant Hose (6)
are a one tire application use and need to be
replaced after each use. Always replace
these components immediately at your origi-
nal equipment vehicle dealer.
• When the Tire Service Kit sealant is in a
liquid form, clean water, and a damp cloth will
remove the material from the vehicle or tire
and wheel components. Once the sealant
dries, it can easily be peeled off and properly
discarded.
• For optimum performance, make sure the
valve stem on the wheel is free of debris
before connecting the Tire Service Kit.
• You can use the Tire Service Kit air pump to
inflate bicycle tires. The kit also comes with
two needles, located in the Accessory Stor-
age Compartment (on the bottom of the air
pump) for inflating sport balls, rafts, or similar
inflatable items. However, use only the Air
Pump Hose (7) and make sure the Mode
Select Knob (5) is in the Air Mode when
inflating such items to avoid injecting sealant
into them. The Tire Service Kit Sealant is only
intended to seal punctures less than 1/4 inch
(6 mm) diameter in the tread of your vehicle.
• Do not lift or carry the Tire Service Kit by the
hoses.
