door or window.
5. Start the engine.

6.Turn the selector switch to SEALANT/
AIR .
7. Press the inflator switch to turn on the
compressor.
u The compressor starts injecting sealant
and air into the tire.
8. When the sealant injection is complete,
continue to add air.
9. After the air pressure reaches 32 psi (220
kPa), turn off the kit.
u To check the pressure , occasionally turn
off the compressor and read the gauge.
1 Injecting Sealant and Air
NOTICEDo not operate the tire re pair kit compressor for
more than 15 minutes. The accessory power socket
and compressor can ov erheat and become
permanently damaged.
Until the sealant injection is complete, the pressure
shown on the pressure gauge will appear higher than
actual. After the sealant injection is complete the
pressure will drop and then begin to rise again as the
tire is inflated with air. Th is is normal. To accurately
measure the air pressure using the gauge, turn the air
compressor off only after the sealant injection is
complete.
If the required air pressure is not reached within 10
minutes, the tire may be too severely damaged for
the kit to provide the necessary seal and your vehicle
will need to be towed.
3WARNING
Running the engine with the vehicle in an
enclosed or even partly enclosed area can
cause a rapid build-up of toxic carbon
monoxide.
Breathing this colorless, odorless gas can
cause unconsciousness and even death.
Only run the engine to power the air
compressor with the vehicle outdoors.

10. Unplug the power plug from the accessory
power socket.
11. Unscrew the sealant/ai r hose from the tire
valve stem. Reinstall the valve cap.
12. Press the pressure reli ef button until the
gauge returns 0 psi (0 kpa).
13. Apply the repair notification label to the
flat surface of the wheel.
u The wheel surface must be clean to
ensure the label adheres properly.
1. Apply the speed restriction label to the
location as shown.
2. Drive the vehicle for about 10 minutes.
u Do not exceed 50 mph (80 km/h).

Stop and recheck the air pressure after every 10
minutes of driving as necessary until you reach the

6.If the air pressure is:
• Less than 19 psi (130 kPa):
Do not add air or continue driving. The
leak is too severe. Call for help and have
your vehicle towed.

•32 psi (220 kPa) or more:
Continue driving for another 10 minutes
or until you reach the nearest service
station. Do not exce ed 50 mph (80 km/h).
u If the air does not go down after the 10
minute driving, you do not need to check
the pressure any more.
• Greater than 19 ps i (130kPa), but less
than 32 psi (220 kPa):
Turn the air compressor on to inflate the
tire until the tire pressure reaches 32 psi
(220 kPa).
Then drive carefully for 10 more minutes
or until you reach the nearest service
station. Do not exce ed 50 mph (80 km/h).
u You should repeat this procedure as long
as the air pressure is within this range.
7. Repackage and properly stow the kit.

Handling the Unexpected
If the Low Tire Pressure/TPMS Indicator Comes On or
Blinks
■Reasons for the indicator to come on or blink
A tire pressure is significantly low. If there is a problem with the TPMS or
the compact spare tire
* is installed, the indica tor blinks for about one
minute, and then stays on.
■What to do when the indicator comes on
Stop your vehicle in a safe place. Check the tire pressure and adjust the
pressure to the specified level. The specified tire pressure is on a label on
the driver side doorjamb.
■What to do when the indicator blinks
Have the tire inspected by a dealer as soon as possible. If the compact
spare tire
* causes the indicator to blink, ch ange the tire to a full-size tire.
The indicator goes off after driv ing for a few miles (kilometers).

NOTICEDriving on an extremely un derinflated tire can cause
it to overheat. An overheat ed tire can fail. Always
inflate your tires to the prescribed level.
