11. Detach the hoses from the sealant
bottle connector and from the tire
valve.
Return the TMK to its storage location

Checking the tire inflation
pressure
OJFA066049
1. After driving approximately
7~10 km (4~6 miles or about
10 minutes), stop at a suitable lo‐
cation.
2. Connect connection hose (10) of
the compressor directly to the tire
valve.
3. Connect between compressor and
the vehicle power outlet using the
cable and connectors.
4. Adjust the tire inflation pressure to
200 kPa (29 psi). With the ignition
switched on, proceed as follows.
- To increase the inflation pres‐
sure: Switch on the compressor,
position I. To check the current
inflation pressure setting, briefly
switch off the compressor.
WARNING
Do not let the compressor run for
more than 10 minutes, otherwise
the device will overheat and may be
damaged.
- To reduce the inflation pressure:
Press the button (9) on the com‐
