8. Press and turn the selector
switch (1) anticlockwise to the
Sealant + Air position.
9. Press the on/off (2) button to
turn the tyre sealant and
compressor kit on.
The compressor will inject
sealant and air into the tyre.
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 on page 10 61.
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.
Notice: 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.
Vehicle Care
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.
