2012 DODGE CHALLENGER parking brake

• Remove the cap from the valve stem and then screw the fitting at the end of theSealant Hose (6) onto the valve stem.
•
Uncoil the Power Plug (8) and insert the plug into the vehicle’s 12 Volt power outlet.
NOTE: Do not remove foreign objects (e.g., screws or nails) from the tire.
(C) Injecting TIREFIT Sealant Into The Deflated Tire: • Always start the engine before turning ON the TIREFIT kit.
NOTE: Manual transmission vehicles must have the parking brake engaged and the
shift lever in NEUTRAL.
• After pressing the Power Button (4), the sealant (white fluid) will flow from theSealant Bottle (1) through the Sealant Hose (6) and into the tire.
NOTE: Sealant may leak out through the puncture in the tire.
If the sealant (white fluid) does not flow within0–10seconds through the Sealant Hose
(6):
• Press the Power Button (4) to turn Off the TIREFIT kit. Disconnect the SealantHose (6) from the valve stem. Make sure the valve stem is free of debris.
Reconnect the Sealant Hose (6) to the valve stem. Check that the Mode Select
Knob (5) is in the Sealant Mode position and not Air Mode. Press the Power
Button (4) to turn On the TIREFIT kit.
• Connect the Power Plug (8) to a different 12 Volt power outlet in your vehicle or another vehicle, if available. Make sure the engine is running before turning ON
the TIREFIT kit.
• The Sealant Bottle (1) may be empty due to previous use. Call for assistance.
NOTE: If the Mode Select Knob (5) is on Air Mode and the pump is operating, air will
dispense from the Air Pump Hose (7) only, not the Sealant Hose (6).
•If the sealant (white fluid) does flow through the Sealant Hose (6):
• Continue to operate the pump until sealant is no longer flowing through hose (typically takes 30 - 70 seconds). As the sealant flows through the Sealant Hose
(6), the Pressure Gauge (3) can read as high as 70 psi (5 Bar). The Pressure
Gauge (3) will decrease quickly from approximately 70 psi (5 Bar) to the actual
tire pressure when the Sealant Bottle (1) is empty.
• The pump will start to inject air into the tire immediately after the Sealant Bottle (1) is empty. Continue to operate the pump and inflate the tire to the pressure
indicated on the tire pressure label on the driver-side latch pillar (recommended
pressure). Check the tire pressure by looking at the Pressure Gauge (3).
• If the tire does not inflate to at least 26 psi (1.8 Bar) pressure within 15 minutes:
• The tire is too badly damaged. Do not attempt to drive the vehicle further. Call for assistance.
NOTE: If the tire becomes over-inflated, press the Deflation Button to reduce the tire
pressure to the recommended inflation pressure before continuing.

WARNING!(Continued)
• Take care not to allow the contents of TIREFIT to come in contact with hair,eyes, or clothing. TIREFIT is harmful if inhaled, swallowed, or absorbed
through the skin. It causes skin, eye, and respiratory irritation. Flush
immediately with plenty of water if there is any contact with eyes or skin.
Change clothing as soon as possible, if there is any contact with clothing.
• TIREFIT Sealant solution contains latex. In case of an allergic reaction or rash, consult a physician immediately. Keep TIREFIT out of reach of
children. If swallowed, rinse mouth immediately with plenty of water and
drink plenty of water. Do not induce vomiting! Consult a physician
immediately.
• TIREFIT is not a permanent flat tire repair. Have the tire inspected and repaired or replaced after using TIREFIT. Do not exceed 55 mph (88 km/h)
until the tire is repaired or replaced. Failure to follow this warning can result
in injuries that are serious or fatal to you, your passengers, and others around
you.
JUMP-STARTING
• If your vehicle has a discharged batteryit can be jumpstarted using a set of
jumper cables and a battery in another
vehicle or by using a portable battery
booster pack.
• Jump-starting can be dangerous if done improperly so please follow the
procedures in this section carefully.
NOTE: When using a portable battery
booster pack follow the manufacturer’s
operating instructions and precautions.
Preparations for Jump-Start
• The battery is stored under an access cover in the trunk. Remote battery
posts are located on the right side of the engine compartment for jump-starting.
NOTE: The remote battery posts are viewed by standing on the right side of the vehicle
looking over the fender.
• Set the parking brake, shift the automatic transmission into PARK and turn theignition to LOCK.
• Turn off the heater, radio, and all unnecessary electrical accessories.
• If using another vehicle to jump-start the battery, park the vehicle within the jumper cables reach, set the parking brake and make sure the ignition is OFF.

WARNING!
• When temperatures are below the freezing point, electrolyte in a dischargedbattery may freeze. Do not attempt jump-starting because the battery could
rupture or explode and cause personal injury. Battery temperature must be
brought above freezing point before attempting a jump-start.
•
Take care to avoid the radiator cooling fan whenever the hood is raised. It can
start anytime the ignition switch is on. You can be injured by moving fan blades.
• Remove any metal jewelry, such as watch bands or bracelets, that might make an inadvertent electrical contact. You could be severely injured.
• Batteries contain sulfuric acid that can burn your skin or eyes and generate hydrogen gas which is flammable and explosive. Keep open flames or sparks
away from the battery.
• Do not allow vehicles to touch each other as this could establish a ground connection and personal injury could result.
• Failure to follow this procedure could result in personal injury or property damage due to battery explosion.
• Do not connect the cable to the negative post (-) of the discharged battery. The resulting electrical spark could cause the battery to explode and could
result in personal injury.
SHIFT LEVER OVERRIDE
• If a malfunction occurs and the shiftlever cannot be moved out of the PARK
position, you can use the following
procedure to temporarily move the shift
lever:
• To access the shift lever override, remove the shift lever manual override
cover which is located on the PRNDL
bezel next to the shift lever. The
override access port is at the front of
the cubby bin.
• Firmly set the parking brake.
• Turn the ignition switch to the ACC or ON position without starting the
engine.
• Press and maintain firm pressure on the brake pedal.
• Using a screwdriver or similar tool, press and hold the override tab through the access port on the center console.
• Move the shift lever into the NEUTRAL position.
• The vehicle may then be started in NEUTRAL.
• Reinstall the override cover.
