Sealing A Tire With TIREFIT
(A) Whenever You Stop To Use TIREFIT:
1. Pull over to a safe location and turn on the vehicle’s Hazard Warning flashers.
2. Verify that the valve stem (on the wheel with the deflated tire) is in a position that
is near to the ground. This will allow the TIREFIT Hoses (6) and (7) to reach the
valve stem and keep the TIREFIT kit flat on the ground. This will provide the best
positioning of the kit when injecting the sealant into the deflated tire and running
the air pump. Move the vehicle as necessary to place the valve stem in this posi-
tion before proceeding.
3. Place the transmission in PARK (auto transmission) or in Gear (manual transmis-
sion) and cycle the ignition to the OFF position.
4. Set the parking brake.
(B) Setting Up To Use TIREFIT:
1. Turn the Mode Select Knob (5) to the Sealant Mode position.
2. Uncoil the Sealant Hose (6) and then remove the cap from the fitting at the end
of the hose.
3. Place the TIREFIT kit flat on the ground next to the deflated tire.
4. Remove the cap from the valve stem and then screw the fitting at the end of the
Sealant Hose (6) onto the valve stem.
5. Uncoil the Power Plug (8) and insert the plug into the vehicle’s 12 Volt power
outlet.
6. 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 inNEUTRAL.
• After pressing the Power Button (4), the sealant (white fluid) will flow from the
Sealant 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 within 0 – 10seconds
through the Sealant Hose (6):
1.Press the Power Button (4) to turn Off the TIREFIT kit. Disconnect the Sealant Hose
(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.
