Warning
Idling a vehicle in an enclosed area with
poor ventilation is dangerous. Engine
exhaust may enter the vehicle. Engine
exhaust contains carbon monoxide (CO)
which cannot be seen or smelled. It can
cause unconsciousness and even death.
Never run the engine in an enclosed area
that has no fresh air ventilation. For more
information, see Engine Exhaust 0 186.
Warning
Overinflating a tyre could cause the tyre
to rupture and you or others could be
injured. Be sure to read and follow the
tyre sealant and compressor kit
instructions and inflate the tyre to its
recommended pressure. Do not exceed
the recommended pressure.
Warning
Storing the tyre sealant and compressor
kit or other equipment in the passenger
compartment of the vehicle could cause
injury. In a sudden stop or collision, loose
equipment could strike someone. Store
the tyre sealant and compressor kit in its
original location.
If this vehicle has a tyre sealant and
compressor kit, there may not be a spare
tyre or tyre changing equipment, and on
some vehicles there may not be a place to
store a tyre.
The tyre sealant and compressor can be
used to temporarily seal punctures up to
6 mm (0.25 in) in the tread area of the tyre.
It can also be used to inflate an under
inflated tyre.
If the tyre has been separated from the
wheel, has damaged sidewalls, or has a
large puncture, the tyre is too severely
damaged for the tyre sealant and
compressor kit to be effective.
