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 0 127.
See If a Tire Goes Flat 0 322 for
other important safety warnings.
Do not remove any objects that
have penetrated the tire.
1. Remove the tire sealant and
compressor kit from its storage
location. See Storing the Tire
Sealant and Compressor Kit
0 329.
2. Remove the sealant/air
hose (5) from the side of the
compressor.
3. Remove the power plug (6).
4. Place the kit on the ground.
Make sure the tire valve stem
is positioned close to the
ground so the hose will
reach it.
5. Remove the valve stem cap
from the flat tire by turning it
counterclockwise.
6. Attach the sealant/air hose (5)
onto the tire valve. Turn it
clockwise until it is tight.
7. Switch the on/off switch (1) to
the O position.
8. Plug the power plug (6) into the
power outlet in the vehicle.
Unplug all items from other
accessory power outlets. See
Power Outlets 0 94.
If the vehicle has an accessory
power outlet, do not use the
cigarette lighter.
If the vehicle only has a
cigarette lighter, use the
cigarette lighter.
Do not pinch the power plug
cord in the door or window.
9. Start the vehicle. The vehicle
must be running while using
the air compressor.
10. Switch the on/off switch (1) to
the I position.
The compressor will inject
sealant and air into the tire.
Vehicle Care
Sealant may leak from the
puncture hole until the vehicle
is driven and the hole has
sealed.
The pressure gauge (2) will
initially show a high pressure
while the compressor pushes
the sealant into the tire. Once
the sealant is completely
dispersed into the tire, the
pressure will quickly drop and
start to rise again as the tire
inflates with air only.
11. Inflate the tire to the
recommended inflation
pressure using the pressure
gauge (2). The recommended
inflation pressure can be found
on the Tire and Loading
Information label. See Tire
Pressure 0 309.
The pressure gauge (2) may
read higher than the actual tire
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.
