Do not attempt to seal a tire on the side of the vehicle closest to traffic. Pull far enough off
the road to avoid the danger of being hit when using the Tire Service Kit.
Do not use Tire Service Kit or drive the vehicle under the following circumstances:
If the puncture in the tire tread is approximately 1/4 inch (6 mm) or larger.
If the tire has any sidewall damage.
If the tire has any damage from driving with extremely low tire pressure.
If the tire has any damage from driving on a flat tire.
If the wheel has any damage.
If you are unsure of the condition of the tire or the wheel.
Keep Tire Service Kit away from open flames or heat source.
A loose Tire Service Kit thrown forward in a collision or hard stop could endanger the
occupants of the vehicle. Always stow the Tire Service Kit in the place provided. Failure to
follow these warnings can result in injuries that are serious or fatal to you, your passengers,
and others around you.
Take care not to allow the contents of Tire Service Kit to come in contact with hair, eyes, or
clothing. Tire Service Kit sealant is harmful if inhaled, swallowed, or absorbed through the
skin. It causes skin, eye, and respiratory irritation. Flush immediately with plenty of water if
there is any contact with eyes or skin. Change clothing as soon as possible, if there is any
contact with clothing.
Tire Service Kit Sealant solution contains latex. In case of an allergic reaction or rash,
consult a physician immediately. Keep Tire Service Kit out of reach of children. If swallowed,
rinse mouth immediately with plenty of water and drink plenty of water. Do not induce
vomiting! Consult a physician immediately.
Insert the power plug into the vehicle power outlet socket. Start the vehicle engine.
Push the Tire Service Kit power button to the "I" position. The electric compressor will be turned on,
sealant and air will inflate the tire.
Minimum 26 psi (1.8 bar) of pressure should be reached within 20 minutes. If the pressure has not
been reached turn off and remove the Tire Service Kit, drive the vehicle 30 feet (10 meters) back
and forth, to better distribute the sealant inside the tire.
Attach the clear flexible filling tube of the compressor directly to the tire valve and repeat the
inflation process.
When the correct pressure has been reached, start driving the vehicle to uniformly distribute the
sealant inside the tire. After 10 minutes, stop and check the tire pressure. If the pressure is below
19 psi (1.3 bar), do not drive the vehicle, as the tire is too damaged, contact the nearest Authorized
Dealer.
