3. Place the kit on the ground.
Make sure the tire valve stem is positioned close to
the ground so the hose will reach it.
4. Remove the valve stem cap from the at tire by
turning it counterclockwise.
5. Attach the sealant/air hose (F) onto the tire valve
stem. Turn it clockwise until it is tight.
6. Plug the power plug (H) into the accessory power
outlet in the vehicle. Unplug all items from other
accessory power outlets. SeeAccessory Power
Outlet(s) on page 3-19.
If the vehicle has an accessory power outlet, do not
use the cigarette lighter.
If the vehicle only has a cigarette lighter, use the
cigarette lighter.
Do not pinch the power plug cord in the door or
window.

using the air compressor.
8. Turn the selector switch (A) counterclockwise to the
Sealant + Air position.
9. Press the on/off (B) button to turn the tire sealant
and compressor kit on.
The compressor will inject sealant and air into
the tire.
The pressure gage (C) will initially show a high
pressure while the compressor pushes the sealant
into the tire. Once the sealant is completelydispersed into the tire, the pressure will quickly
drop and start to rise again as the tire inates
with air only.
10. Inate the tire to the recommended ination
pressure using the pressure gage (C).
The recommended ination pressure can
be found on the Tire and Loading Information
label. SeeInflation - Tire Pressure on page 5-65.
The pressure gage (C) may read higher than the
actual tire pressure while the compressor is on.
Turn the compressor off to get an accurate pressure
reading. The compressor may be turned on/off
until the correct pressure is reached.
Notice:If the recommended pressure cannot be
reached after approximately 25 minutes, the vehicle
should not be driven farther. The tire is too severely
damaged and the tire sealant and compressor kit
cannot inate the tire. Remove the power plug from
the accessory power outlet and unscrew the inating
hose from the tire valve. SeeRoadside Assistance
Program on page 7-7.
11. Press the on/off button (B) to turn the tire sealant
and compressor kit off.
The tire is not sealed and will continue to leak
air until the vehicle is driven and the sealant
is distributed in the tire, therefore, Steps 12 through
18 must be done immediately after Step 11.
Be careful while handling the tire sealant and
compressor kit as it could be warm after usage.

16. If the at tire was
able to inate to the
recommended ination
pressure, remove the
maximum speed label
from the sealant
canister (E) and place
it in a highly visible
location.
The label is a reminder not to exceed 55 mph
(90 km/h) until the damaged tire is repaired
or replaced.
17. Return the equipment to its original storage location
in the vehicle.
18. Immediately drive the vehicle 5 miles (8 km) to
distribute the sealant in the tire.19. Stop at a safe location and check the tire pressure.
Refer to Steps 1 through 11 under “Using the Tire
Sealant and Compressor Kit without Sealant to
Inate a Tire (Not Punctured).”
If the tire pressure has fallen more than 10 psi
(68 kPa) below the recommended ination pressure,
stop driving the vehicle. The tire is too severely
damaged and the tire sealant cannot seal the tire.
SeeRoadside Assistance Program on page 7-7.
If the tire pressure has not dropped more than
10 psi (68 kPa) from the recommended ination
pressure, inate the tire to the recommended
ination pressure.
20. Wipe off any sealant from the wheel, tire, and
vehicle.
21. Dispose of the used sealant canister (E) and
sealant/air hose (F) assembly at a local dealer/
retailer or in accordance with local state codes
and practices.
22. Replace it with a new canister available from your
dealer/retailer.
23. After temporarily sealing a tire using the tire sealant
and compressor kit, take the vehicle to an authorized
dealer/retailer within a 100 miles (161 km) of driving
to have the tire repaired or replaced.

using the air compressor.
8. Turn the selector switch (A) clockwise to the Air
Only position.
9. Press the on/off (B) button to turn the
compressor on.
The compressor will inate the tire with air only.10. Inate the tire to the recommended ination
pressure using the pressure gage (C). The
recommended ination pressure can be found
on the Tire and Loading Information label.
SeeInflation - Tire Pressure on page 5-65.
The pressure gage (C) may read higher than the
actual tire pressure while the compressor is on.
Turn the compressor off to get an accurate reading.
The compressor may be turned on/off until the
correct pressure is reached.
If you inate the tire higher than the recommended
pressure you can adjust the excess pressure
by pressing the pressure deation button (D),
if equipped, until the proper pressure reading
is reached. This option is only functional when
using the air only hose (G).
