2013 DODGE VIPER tire pressure

NOTE:
If the tire becomes over-inflated, press the Deflation Button to reduce the tire pressure to
the recommended inflation pressure before continuing.
NOTE:
When having the tire serviced, advise the authorized dealer or service center that the tire
has been sealed using the TIREFIT service kit.
(F) Sealant Bottle And Hose Replacement:
1. Uncoil the Sealant Hose (6) (clear in color).
2. Locate the round Sealant Bottle release button in the recessed area under the sealantbottle.
3. Press the Sealant Bottle release button. The Sealant Bottle (1) will pop up. Remove the bottle and dispose of it accordingly.
4. Clean any remaining sealant from the TIREFIT housing.
5. Position the new Sealant Bottle (1) in the housing so that the Sealant Hose (6) aligns with the hose slot in the front of the housing. Press the bottle into the housing.
An audible click will be heard indicating the bottle is locked into place.
6. Verify that the cap is installed on the fitting at the end of the Sealant Hose (6) and return the hose to its storage area (located on the bottom of the air pump).
7. Return the TIREFIT kit to its storage location in the vehicle.
CAUTION!
• The metal end fitting from Power Plug (8) may get hot after use, so it should be handled carefully.
• Failure to reinstall the cap on the fitting at the end of the Sealant Hose (6) can result
in sealant contacting your skin, clothing, and the vehicle’s interior. It can also result
in sealant contacting internal TIREFIT kit components which may cause perma-
nent damage to the kit.

WARNING!
• Do not attempt to seal a tire on the side of the vehicle closest to traffic. Pull farenough off the road to avoid the danger of being hit when using the TIREFIT kit.
• Do not use TIREFIT or drive the vehicle under the following circumstances:
• If the puncture in the tire tread is approximately 1/4 in. (6 mm) or larger.
• If the tire has any sidewall damage.
• If the tire has any damage from driving with extremely low tire pressure.
• If the tire has any damage from driving on a flat tire.
• If the wheel has any damage.
• If you are unsure of the condition of the tire or the wheel.
• Keep TIREFIT away from open flames or heat source.
• A loose TIREFIT kit thrown forward in a collision or hard stop could endanger the
occupants of the vehicle. Always stow the TIREFIT kit in the place provided. Failure
to follow these warnings can result in injuries that are serious or fatal to you, your
passengers, and others around you.
• 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.

TOWING A DISABLED VEHICLE
Do not tow with sling-type equipment. Only use flatbed equipment. Always comply with
applicable state or local towing ordinances.
CAUTION!
• Failure to follow these towing methods can cause severe transmission damage.Such damage is not covered by the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
• If the vehicle being towed requires steering, the ignition switch must be in the
ON/RUN position.
• Do not attempt to use sling-type equipment when towing. When securing the
vehicle to a flatbed truck, do not attach to front or rear suspension components.
Damage to your vehicle may result from improper towing.
FREEING A STUCK VEHICLE
• If your vehicle becomes stuck in mud, sand or snow, it can often be moved by a rockingmotion. Turn your steering wheel right and left to clear the area around the front wheels.
Then shift back and forth between 2nd gear and REVERSE. Using minimal accelerator
pedal pressure to maintain the rocking motion, without spinning the wheels, is most
effective.
WARNING!
Fast spinning tires can be dangerous. Forces generated by excessive wheel speeds may
cause tire damage or failure. A tire could explode and injure someone. Do not spin your
vehicle's wheels faster than 30 mph (48 km/h) when you are stuck. Do not let anyone
near a spinning wheel, no matter what the speed.

TIRE PRESSURES
• Check the inflation pressure of each tire, including the spare tire, at least monthly andinflate to the recommended pressure for your vehicle.
• The tire pressures recommended for your vehicle are found on the “Tire and Loading Information” label located on the driver’s side door opening.
NOTE:
Refer to the Owner's Manual on the DVD for
more information regarding tire warnings
and instructions.
WARNING!
• Overloading of your tires is dangerous. Overloading can cause tire failure, affect vehicle handling, and increase your stopping distance. Use tires of the recom-
mended load capacity for your vehicle. Never overload them.
• Improperly inflated tires are dangerous and can cause collisions. Under-inflation is the leading cause of tire failure and may result in severe cracking, component
separation, or “blow out”. Over-inflation reduces a tire’s ability to cushion shock.
Objects on the road and chuck holes can cause damage that results in tire failure.
Unequal tire pressures can cause steering problems. You could lose control of your
vehicle. Over-inflated or under-inflated tires can affect vehicle handling and can fail
suddenly, resulting in loss of vehicle control.
