Replace the Tire Service Kit Sealant Bottle (4)
and Sealant Hose (3) prior to the expiration date
(printed at the upper right hand corner on the
bottle label) to assure optimum operation of the
system Ú page 201.
Tire Service Kit Sealant Expiration Date Location
The Sealant Bottle (4) and Sealant Hose (3) are
a one tire application use and need to be
replaced after each use. Always replace these
components immediately at your original equip-
ment vehicle dealer.
When the Tire Service Kit sealant is in a liquid
RECAUTIONS
form, clean water and a damp cloth will remove
the material from the vehicle or tire and wheel
components. Once the sealant dries, it can
easily be peeled off and properly discarded.
For optimum performance, make sure the valve
stem on the wheel is free of debris before
connecting the Tire Service Kit.
You can use the Tire Service Kit air pump to
inflate bicycle tires. The kit also comes with
two needles, located in the Accessory Storage
Compartment (on the bottom of the air pump)
for inflating sport balls, rafts, or similar inflat-
able items. However, use only the Air Pump
Hose (5) and make sure the Mode Select Knob
(2) is in the Air Mode when inflating such items
to avoid injecting sealant into them. The Tire
Service Kit Sealant is only intended to seal
punctures less than 1/4 inch (6 mm) diameter
in the tread of your tire.
Do not lift or carry the Tire Service Kit by the
hoses.
WARNING!
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 source.
