Tire Sealing System
Introduction
Certain models are equipped with a tire sealing
system that enables you to temporarily seal a
hole in the tread surface and re-inflate a flat tire,
or to adjust a tire's inflation pressure.
The system consists of an air compressor, a
container for the sealing compound, wiring to
connect the system to the vehicle's electrical
system via one of the 12-volt sockets, and a
hose used to connect the system to the tire's
inflation valve.
The 12-volt sockets are located in the front
tunnel console, on the rear side of the center
console in the rear seat, and in the cargo com-
partment*.See page 199.
