Sealing A Tire With Tire Service Kit
(A) Whenever You Stop To Use Tire Service Kit:
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 Tire Service Kit Hoses (6) and (7) to reach the
valve stem and keep the Tire Service 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 position be-
fore proceeding.
3.Place the transmission in PARK (auto transmission) or in Gear (manual transmission)
and place the ignition in the OFF position.
4.Set the parking brake.
(B) Setting Up To Use Tire Service Kit:
1.Push in the Mode Select Knob (5) and turn 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 Tire Service 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.
NOTE:
Do not remove foreign objects (e.g., screws or nails) from the tire.
(C) Injecting Tire Service Kit Sealant Into The Deflated Tire:
•Always start the engine before turning ON the Tire Service Kit.
NOTE:
Manual transmission vehicles must have the parking brake engaged and the gear selector
in NEUTRAL.
•After pushing 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.

CAUTION!
•Mixing of coolant (antifreeze) other than specified Organic Additive Technology
(OAT) coolant (antifreeze), may result in cooling system damage and may decrease
corrosion protection.Organic Additive Technology (OAT) coolant is different and
should not be mixed with Hybrid Organic Additive Technology (HOAT) coolant
(antifreeze).If a non-OAT coolant (antifreeze) is introduced into the cooling sys-
tem in an emergency, it should be replaced with the specified coolant (antifreeze)
as soon as possible.
•Do not use water alone or alcohol-based coolant (antifreeze) products.Do not
use additional rust inhibitors or antirust products, as they may not be compatible
with the radiator coolant and may plug the radiator.
•This vehicle has not been designed for use with propylene glycol-based coolant
(antifreeze).Use of propylene glycol-based coolant (antifreeze) is not recom-
mended.
