What to do after the tire has been sealed
After using the temporary mobility kit to seal your tire, you will need to
replace the sealing compound and hose. Sealing compound and spare
parts can be obtained and replaced at an authorized dealer or tire dealer.
Empty sealing compound bottles may be disposed of at home; however,
liquid residue from the sealing compound should be disposed by your
authorized dealer or tire dealer, or in accordance with local waste
disposal regulations.
Note:After the sealing compound has been used, the maximum vehicle
speed is 50 mph (80 km/h) and the maximum driving distance is
120 miles (193 km). The sealed tire should be replaced immediately, or
at least within the 120 miles (200 km). After sealant use, the TPM (Tire
Pressure Monitoring) sensor located inside the wheel, must be replaced
by an authorized Ford dealer.
Note:If you experience any unusual vibration, ride disturbance or noise
while driving, reduce your speed until you can safely pull off to the side
of the road to call for roadside assistance.
You can check the tire pressure any time within the 120 miles (193 km)
by performing the following:
1. Ensure the compressor is turned off by pressing the “O” side of the
orange button.
2. Remove the hose and the cable with the electrical plug from the kit’s
storage compartment.
3. Remove the valve cap from the sealed tire, then screw the hose firmly
onto the tire’s air valve.
4. Insert the electrical plug into the vehicle’s power point.
5. Start the engine(only if the vehicle is outdoors or in a
well-ventilated area)to prevent the vehicle’s battery from draining.
6. Read the air pressure gauge on the temporary mobility kit.
If the tire pressure needs to be increased, operate the air compressor
and inflate the tire to the recommended pressure as indicated on the
label on the B-Pillar or the edge of the driver’s door.
