Read and follow the safe handling
instructions on the label adhered to
the tire sealant canister (4).
Check the tire sealant expiration date
on the tire sealant canister. The tire
sealant canister (4) should be replaced
before its expiration date. Replacement
tire sealant canisters are available at
your local dealer.
There is only enough sealant to seal
one tire. After usage, the tire sealant
canister must be replaced.
Using the Tire Sealant and
Compressor Kit to Temporarily
Seal and Inflate a
Punctured Tire
When using the tire sealant and
compressor kit during cold
temperatures, warm the kit in a heated
environment for five minutes. This will
help to inflate the tire faster.
If a tire goes flat, avoid further tire
and wheel damage by driving slowly to
a level place. Turn on the hazard
warning flashers. See Hazard Warning
Flashers 0 165.
See If a Tire Goes Flat 0 295 for other
important safety warnings.
Do not remove any objects that have
penetrated the tire.
1. Remove the tire sealant
canister (4) and compressor from
its storage location. See Storing
the Tire Sealant and Compressor
Kit 0 303.
2. Remove the air only hose (10)
and the power plug (9) from the
bottom of the compressor.
3. Place the compressor on the
ground near the flat tire.
4. Attach the air only hose (10) to
the sealant canister inlet valve (1)
by turning it clockwise until
tight.
