Wheels And Tires; Inflating The Tire - Ford FIESTA Owner's Manual

• Park your vehicle at the roadside so
that you do not obstruct the flow of
traffic and so that you are able to use
the kit without being in danger.
• Apply the parking brake, even if you
have parked on a level road, to make
sure that your vehicle will not move.
• Do not attempt to remove foreign
objects like nails or screws penetrating
the tire.
• Leave the engine running while the kit
is in use, but not if your vehicle is in an
enclosed or poorly ventilated area (e.g,
inside a building). In these
circumstances, switch the compressor
on with the engine switched off.
• You must replace the sealant bottle
with a new one before the expiry date
(see top of bottle).
• Inform all other users of your vehicle
that the tire has been temporarily
sealed with the kit. Make them aware
of the special driving conditions that
must be observed.
