•In the second stage, you will need tocheck the tire pressure and adjust, ifnecessary, to the vehicle's specified tireinflation pressure.
First Stage: Reinflating the Tire withSealing Compound and Air
WARNING
Do not stand directly beside the tirewhile the compressor is operating. Thiscould cause personal injury if the tire bursts.
Note:If the tire does not inflate to therecommended tire pressure within 15minutes, stop and call roadside assistance.
WARNINGS
Watch the sidewall of the tire wheninflating. If any cracks, bumps or similardamage appears, switch the compressor offand let the air out by means of the pressurerelief valve. Do not continue driving with thistire. This could cause loss of vehicle control.
