pump switch (3) to 0, disconnect the TIREFIT system
from the tire, and drive the vehicle back and forth
approximately 30 feet (9.1 m) to distribute the sealant
more evenly within the tire.12. Attach the air pump hose (1) directly to the tire, press
the switch (3) to 1, and inflate the tire again.NOTE:If a
tire pressure of 26 psi (1.8 bar) is not reached after five
minutes, the tire is too badly damaged. Do not attempt to
drive the vehicle further, and call for assistance.
13. If a tire pressure of 26 psi (1.8 bar) is obtained, press
the air pump switch (3) to 0, turn the ignition switch to
the OFF/LOCK position, and disconnect the TIREFIT
