switch to the ON (−) position and inflate
the tire up to the pressure that is
specified on the tire and loading infor-
mation label affixed to the driver’s side
pillar if possible, or to the minimum of 26
psi (180 kPa). Turn the air compressor
off briefly in order to check the tire
pressure with the pressure gauge.
If the tire is inflated to higher than the
specified pressure, lower the tire pres-
sure by releasing air with the pressure
release valve.NOTE:
The compressor tire pressure gauge may
show a pressure reading of 87 psi (600
kPa) for about 30 seconds while inflat-
ing the tire. The pressure gauge is
indicating the pressure inside the sea-
lant can. When the sealant has been
injected into the tire the pressure gauge
will drop and indicate actual tire pres-
sure.
WARNING
.To avoid serious personal injury while
using the emergency tire puncture
repair kit:
— Securely tighten the compressor
hose to the tire valve. Failure to
do so can cause the sealant to
spray into the air and get into
your eyes or on the skin.
