Note:
Carefully drive the vehicle at a speed of
50 mph (80 km/h) or less. If the vehicle
is driven at a speed of 50 mph
(80 km/h) or more, the vehicle may
vibrate.
Note: With TPMS System: if the tire is
not properly inflated, the warning
light will illuminate.
After driving the vehicle for about
10 minutes or 3 miles (5 km), connect
the air compressor to the tire using
Step nine of the procedure, and check
the tire inflation pressure using the tire
pressure gauge on the air compressor.
If the tire inflation pressure is lower than
the specified tire inflation pressure, turn
the air compressor on and wait until it
reaches the specified tire inflation
pressure.
The Tire Service Kit is completed
successfully if the tire inflation pressure
does not decrease. Carefully drive the
vehicle to the nearest authorized dealer
immediately and have the flat tire
replaced. Replacement with a new tire
is recommended. If the tire is to be
repaired or reused, consult your
authorized dealer.
Note:
If an emergency flat tire repair has
been performed using the Tire Service
Kit, FCA recommends that the tire be
replaced with a new one as soon as
possible. If the tire is to be repaired or
reused, contact your authorized dealer.
The wheel can be reused if the
sealant adhering to it is removed.
However, replace the valve with a new
one.
