Tire Sealant And Compressor - Chevrolet 2013 Malibu Owner's Manual

10-68 Vehicle Care
11. Press the on/off button (A)
to turn the tire sealant and
compressor kit off.
The tire is not sealed and
will continue to leak air until
the vehicle is driven and the
sealant is distributed in the tire;
therefore, Steps 12 18 must
be done immediately after
Step 11.
Be careful while handling the

tire sealant and compressor

kit as it could be warm after
usage.
12. Unplug the power plug (G) from
the accessory power outlet in
the vehicle.
13. Turn the sealant/air hose (F)
counterclockwise to remove it
from the tire valve stem.
14. Replace the tire valve
stem cap.
15. Return the sealant/air hose (F)
and the power plug (G) back in
their original locations.
16. If the flat tire was able to
inflate to the recommended
inflation pressure, remove the
maximum speed label from
the sealant canister and place
it in a highly visible location.
Do not exceed the speed on
this label until the damaged
tire is repaired or replaced.
17. Return the equipment to its
original storage location in
the vehicle.
18. Immediately drive the vehicle
8 km (5 mi) to distribute the
sealant in the tire.
19. Stop at a safe location and
check the tire pressure. Refer
to Steps 1 11 under Using the
Tire Sealant and Compressor
Kit without Sealant to Inflate a
Tire (Not Punctured).
If the tire pressure has fallen
more than 68 kPa (10 psi)
below the recommended
inflation pressure, stop
driving the vehicle. The tire
is too severely damaged and
the tire sealant cannot seal the
tire. See Roadside Assistance
Program (U.S. and Canada) on
page 13 8 or Roadside
Assistance Program (Mexico)
on page 13 10.
If the tire pressure has not
dropped more than 68 kPa
(10 psi) from the recommended
inflation pressure, use the
compressor kit to inflate the tire
to the recommended inflation
pressure.
