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 sources.
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.
Whenever You Stop To Use Tire Service Kit
1. Pull over to a safe location and turn on the vehicle's Hazard Warning flashers.
2. Verify that the valve stem (on the wheel with the deflated tire) is in a position that is near to the
ground. This will allow the Tire Service Kit Hoses and to reach the valve stem and keep the Tire
Service Kit flat on the ground. This will provide the best positioning of the kit when injecting the
sealant into the deflated tire and running the air pump. Move the vehicle as necessary to place
the valve stem in this position before proceeding.
3. Place the transmission in PARK and place the ignition in the OFF position.
4. Set the parking brake.
5. Remove speed limit sticker off of the sealant cartridge and place it inside the vehicle visually
available for the driver to see.
Setting Up To Use The Tire Service Kit
1. Push in the sealant cartridge inlet into the sealant cartridge receptacle.
2. Uncoil the Sealant Hose.
3. Place the Tire Service Kit flat on the ground next to the deflated tire.
