WARNING!(Continued)
•Failure to follow these warnings may result in
injuries that are serious or fatal to you, your
passengers, and others around you.
CAUTION!
• Always check the depth of the standing water
before driving through it. Never drive through
standing water that is deeper than the bottom of
the tire rims mounted on the vehicle.
• Determine the condition of the road or the path
that is under water and if there are any obstacles
in the way before driving through the standing
water.
• Do not exceed 5 mph (8 km/h) when driving
through standing water. This will minimize wave
effects.
• Driving through standing water may cause dam-
age to your vehicle’s drivetrain components. Al-
ways inspect your vehicle’s fluids (i.e., engine oil,
transmission, axle, etc.) for signs of contamination
(i.e., fluid that is milky or foamy in appearance)
(Continued)
CAUTION! (Continued)
after driving through standing water. Do not
continue to operate the vehicle if any fluid ap-
pears contaminated, as this may result in further
damage. Such damage is not covered by the New

• Getting water inside your vehicle’s engine can
cause it to lock up and stall out, and cause serious
internal damage to the engine. Such damage is
not covered by the New Vehicle Limited War-
ranty.

FUSES
WARNING!
•When replacing a blown fuse, always use an
appropriate replacement fuse with the same amp
rating as the original fuse. Never replace a fuse
with another fuse of higher amp rating. Never
replace a blown fuse with metal wires or any
other material. Do not place a fuse inside a circuit
breaker cavity or vice versa. Failure to use proper
fuses may result in serious personal injury, fire
and/or property damage.
• Before replacing a fuse, make sure that the igni-
tion is off and that all the other services are
switched off and/or disengaged.
(Continued)
WARNING! (Continued)
•If the replaced fuse blows again, contact an au-
thorized dealer.
• If a general protection fuse for safety systems (air
bag system, braking system), power unit systems
(engine system, transmission system) or steering
system blows, contact an authorized dealer.
General Information
The fuses protect electrical systems against excessive
current.
When a device does not work, you must check the fuse
element inside the blade fuse for a break/melt.7

5. Uncoil the Power Plug and insert the plug into thevehicle’s 12 Volt power outlet.
NOTE: Do not remove foreign objects (e.g., screws or
nails) from the tire.
Injecting Sealant Into The Tire
1. Always start the engine before turning on the Tire Service Kit.
2. After pushing the Power Button, the sealant (white fluid) will flow from the sealant cartridge through
the sealant hose and into the tire. As the sealant flows
through the sealant hose, the pressure gauge can
read as high as 70 psi (4.8 Bar). The pressure gauge
will decrease quickly from approximately 70 psi (4.8
Bar) to the actual tire pressure when the sealant
cartridge is empty.
NOTE: Sealant may leak out through the puncture in
the tire.
3. The pump will start to inject air into the tire imme- diately after the sealant cartridge 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.
NOTE: •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 assistance.
• Do not let the compressor be turned on for more
than 20 consecutive minutes. The pump may over-
heat.
4. Remove sealant cartridge by pushing the cartridge release button on the side of the compressor.
Drive Vehicle
Immediately after injecting sealant and inflating the
tire, drive the vehicle 5 miles (8 km) or 10 minutes to
ensure distribution of the Tire Service Kit Sealant within
the tire. Do not exceed 50 mph (80 km/h).
