If a tire goes flat, avoid further tireand wheel damage by driving slowlyto a level place. Turn on the hazardwarning flashers. SeeHazardWarning Flashers0127.
SeeIf a Tire Goes Flat0322forother important safety warnings.
Do not remove any objects thathave penetrated the tire.
1. Remove the tire sealant andcompressor kit from its storagelocation. SeeStoring the TireSealant and Compressor Kit0329.
2. Remove the sealant/airhose (5) from the side of thecompressor.
3. Remove the power plug (6).
4. Place the kit on the ground.
Make sure the tire valve stemis positioned close to theground so the hose willreach it.
5. Remove the valve stem capfrom the flat tire by turning itcounterclockwise.
6. Attach the sealant/air hose (5)onto the tire valve. Turn itclockwise until it is tight.
7. Switch the on/off switch (1) tothe O position.
8. Plug the power plug (6) into thepower outlet in the vehicle.Unplug all items from otheraccessory power outlets. SeePower Outlets094.
If the vehicle has an accessorypower outlet, do not use thecigarette lighter.
If the vehicle only has acigarette lighter, use thecigarette lighter.
Do not pinch the power plugcord in the door or window.
9. Start the vehicle. The vehiclemust be running while usingthe air compressor.
10. Switch the on/off switch (1) tothe I position.
The compressor will injectsealant and air into the tire.
Sealant may leak from thepuncture hole until the vehicleis driven and the hole hassealed.
The pressure gauge (2) willinitially show a high pressurewhile the compressor pushesthe sealant into the tire. Oncethe sealant is completelydispersed into the tire, thepressure will quickly drop andstart to rise again as the tireinflates with air only.
11 . I n f l a t e t h e t i r e t o t h erecommended inflationpressure using the pressuregauge (2). The recommendedinflation pressure can be foundon the Tire and LoadingInformation label. SeeTirePressure0309.
The pressure gauge (2) mayread higher than the actual tirepressure while the compressoris on. Turn the compressor offto get an accurate pressurereading. The compressor maybe turned on/off until thecorrect pressure is reached.

Caution
If the recommended pressure
cannot be reached after
approximately 25 minutes, the
vehicle should not be driven
farther. The tire is too severely
damaged and the tire sealant and
compressor kit cannot inflate the
tire. Remove the power plug from
the accessory power outlet and
unscrew the inflating hose from
the tire valve. SeeRoadside
Assistance Program0368.
12. Switch the on/off switch (1) tothe O position.
The tire is not sealed and willcontinue to leak air until thevehicle is driven and thesealant is distributed in the tire.Therefore, Steps 13–19 mustbe done immediately afterStep 12.
Be careful while handling thetire sealant and compressor kitas it could be warm afterusage.
13. Unplug the power plug (6) fromthe accessory power outlet inthe vehicle.
14. Turn the sealant/air hose (5)counterclockwise to remove itfrom the tire valve stem.
15. Replace the tire valvestem cap.
16. Replace the sealant/airhose (5), and the power plug (6back in their original location.
17. If the flat tire was able to inflateto the recommended inflationpressure, remove themaximum speed label from thetire sealant canister (3) andplace it in a highly visiblelocation.
Do not exceed the speed onthis label until the damaged tireis repaired or replaced.
18. Return the equipment to itsoriginal storage location in thevehicle.
19. Immediately drive the vehicle8km(5mi)todistributethesealant in the tire.
20. Stop at a safe location andcheck the tire pressure. Referto Steps 1–10 under“Using theTire Sealant and CompressorKit without Sealant to Inflate aTire (Not Punctured).”
If the tire pressure has fallenmore than 68 kPa (10 psi)below the recommendedinflation pressure, stop drivingthe vehicle. The tire is tooseverely damaged and the tiresealant cannot seal the tire.SeeRoadside AssistanceProgram0368.
If the tire pressure has notdropped more than 68 kPa(10 psi) from the recommendedinflation pressure, inflate thetire to the recommendedinflation pressure.
