Tire Inflator Kit - Chevrolet 2006 SSR Pickup Owner's Manual

If the flat tire is due to a slow leak caused by a nail or
other similar road hazard, the tire inflator kit may be used
to repair the damaged tire temporarily. The kit uses a
liquid tire sealant to seal small punctures in the tread area
of the tire. The flat tire is then inflated to at least 26 psi
(179 kPa) and driven to evenly distribute the tire sealant.
The tire pressure is checked after driving for a maximum
of 10 minutes to see if the slow leak has been stopped. If
the tire pressure is 19 psi (131 kPa) or more, inflate the
tire up to the standard operating pressure as shown on
the tire and loading information label. This label is
attached to the vehicle's B-pillar below the driver's door
latch. See Inflation - Tire Pressure on page 5-57.
You should have the damaged tire repaired as soon as
possible. The tire sealant is a temporary repair only.
For more information regarding the tire inflator kit
see Tire Inflator Kit on page 5-68.
Notice: If the tire pressure has dropped below
19 psi (131 kPa), the vehicle should not be driven.
Damage to the tire may be severe and the sealant
will not be effective. Contact Roadside Assistance,
see Roadside Assistance Program on page 7-6.
