faster as the object gets closer to the bumper.The chime will become continuous when

(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 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 within0–10seconds 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.
2.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.
3.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):
1.Continue to operate the pump until sealant is no longer flowing through the 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 (4.8 Bar).The Pressure Gauge (3)
will decrease quickly from approximately 70 psi (4.8 Bar) to the actual tire pressure
when the Sealant Bottle (1) is empty.
2.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 assis-
tance.
NOTE:
If the tire becomes over-inflated, press the Deflation Button to reduce the tire pressure
to the recommended inflation pressure before continuing.
