WARNING!(Continued)
•Keep Tire Service Kit away from open
flames or heat source.
•A loose Tire Service Kit thrown forward in a
collision or hard stop could endanger the
occupants of the vehicle. Always stow the
Tire Service Kit in the place provided.
Failure to follow these warnings can result
in injuries that are serious or fatal to you,
your passengers, and others around you.
•Take care not to allow the contents of Tire
Service Kit to come in contact with hair,
eyes, or clothing. Tire Service Kit sealant is
harmful if inhaled, swallowed, or absorbed
through the skin. It causes skin, eye, and
respiratory irritation. Flush immediately
with plenty of water if there is any contact
with eyes or skin. Change clothing as soon
as possible, if there is any contact with
clothing.

WARNING!(Continued)
•Tire Service Kit Sealant solution contains
latex. In case of an allergic reaction or
rash, consult a physician immediately.
Keep Tire Service Kit out of reach of
children. If swallowed, rinse mouth imme-
diately with plenty of water and drink plenty
of water. Do not induce vomiting! Consult a
physician immediately.
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 thedeflated tire and running the air pump. Move
the vehicle as necessary to place the valve
stem in this position before proceeding.
3. Place the transmission in PARK (auto trans-
mission) 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 re-
move 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.
237

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 selec-
tor in NEUTRAL.
•After pushing the Power Button (4), the seal-
ant (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.
If the sealant (white fluid) does not flow
within0–10seconds through the Sealant
Hose (6):
1. Push the Power Button (4) to turn Off the Tire
Service Kit. Disconnect the Sealant Hose (6)from the valve stem. Make sure the valve
stem is free of debris. Reconnect the Seal-
ant Hose (6) to the valve stem. Check that
the Mode Select Knob (5) is in the Sealant
Mode position and not Air Mode. Push the
Power Button (4) to turn On the Tire Service
Kit.
2. Connect the Power Plug (8) to a different 12
Volt power outlet in your vehicle or another
vehicle, if available. Make sure the engine is
running before turning ON the Tire Service
Kit.
3. The Sealant Bottle (1) may be empty due to
previous use. Call for assistance.
NOTE:
If the Mode Select Knob (5) is on Air Mode
and the pump is operating, air will dispense
from the Air Pump Hose (7) only, not the
Sealant Hose (6).
If the sealant (white fluid) does flow through
the Sealant Hose (6):
1. Continue to operate the pump until sealant is
no longer flowing through hose (typicallytakes 30 - 70 seconds). As the sealant flows
through the Sealant Hose (6), the Pressure
Gauge (3) can read as high as 70 psi (4.8
Bar). The Pressure Gauge (3) will decrease
quickly from approximately 70 psi (4.8 Bar)
to the actual tire pressure when the Sealant
Bottle (1) is empty.
2. The pump will start to inject air into the tire
immediately after the Sealant Bottle (1) 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 (3).
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 at-
tempt to drive the vehicle further. Call for
assistance.
238

WARNING!(Continued)
•Batteries contain sulfuric acid that can
burn your skin or eyes and generate hy-
drogen gas which is flammable and explo-
sive. Keep open flames or sparks away
from the battery.
1. Set the parking brake, shift the automatic
transmission into PARK (manual transmis-
sion to NEUTRAL) and turn the ignition to
LOCK.
2. Turn off the heater, radio, and all unneces-
sary electrical accessories.
3. If using another vehicle to jump-start the
battery, park the vehicle within the jumper
cables reach, set the parking brake and
make sure the ignition is OFF.
WARNING!
Do not allow vehicles to touch each other as
this could establish a ground connection and
personal injury could result.
Jump-Starting Procedure
WARNING!
Failure to follow this jump-starting procedure
could result in personal injury or property
damage due to battery explosion.
CAUTION!
Failure to follow these procedures could re-
sult in damage to the charging system of the
booster vehicle or the discharged vehicle.
NOTE:
Remove Air Intake before proceeding with
this Jump-Starting procedure.Connecting The Jumper Cables
1. Connect the positive(+)end of the jumper
cable to the positive(+)post of the dis-
charged vehicle.
2. Connect the opposite end of the positive(+)
jumper cable to the positive(+)post of the
booster battery.
3. Connect the negative end(-)of the jumper
cable to the negative(-)post of the booster
battery.
4. Connect the opposite end of the negative(-)
jumper cable to a good engine ground (ex-
posed metal part of the discharged vehicle’s
engine) away from the battery and the fuel
injection system.
WARNING!
Do not connect the jumper cable to the
negative(-)post of the discharged battery.
The resulting electrical spark could cause

WARNING!(Continued)
the battery to explode and could result in
personal injury. Only use the specific ground
point, do not use any other exposed metal
parts.
5. Start the engine in the vehicle that has the
booster battery, let the engine idle a few
minutes, and then start the engine in the
vehicle with the discharged battery.
6. Once the engine is started, remove the
jumper cables in the reverse sequence:
Disconnecting The Jumper Cables
1. Disconnect the negative(-)end of the
jumper cable from the engine ground of the
vehicle with the discharged battery.
2. Disconnect the opposite end of the negative
(-)jumper cable from the negative(-)post of
the booster battery.3. Disconnect the positive(+)end of the jumper
cable from the positive(+)post of the
booster battery.
4. Disconnect the opposite end of the positive
(+)jumper cable from the positive(+)post of
the vehicle with the discharged battery.
5. Reinstall the air intake duct.
If frequent jump-starting is required to start your
vehicle you should have the battery and charg-
ing system inspected at your authorized dealer.
CAUTION!
Accessories plugged into the vehicle power
outlets draw power from the vehicle’s bat-
tery, even when not in use (i.e., cellular
devices, etc.). Eventually, if plugged in long
enough without engine operation, the vehi-
cle’s battery will discharge sufficiently to de-
grade battery life and/or prevent the engine
from starting.
FREEING A STUCK VEHICLE
If your vehicle becomes stuck in mud, sand or
snow, it can often be moved using a rocking
motion. Turn the steering wheel right and left to
clear the area around the front wheels. Then
shift back and forth between DRIVE and RE-
VERSE (with automatic transmission) or 2nd
gear and REVERSE (with manual transmis-
sion), while gently pressing the accelerator. Use
the least amount of accelerator pedal pressure
that will maintain the rocking motion, without
spinning the wheels, or racing the engine.
CAUTION!
Racing the engine or spinning the wheels
may lead to transmission overheating and
failure. Allow the engine to idle with the
transmission in NEUTRAL for at least one
minute after every five rocking-motion
cycles. This will minimize overheating and
reduce the risk of clutch or transmission
failure during prolonged efforts to free a
stuck vehicle.

•If frequent engine coolant (antifreeze) addi-
tions are required, the cooling system should
be pressure tested for leaks.
•Maintain engine coolant (antifreeze) concen-
tration at a minimum of 50% OAT coolant
(conforming to MS.90032) and distilled water
for proper corrosion protection of your engine
which contains aluminum components.
•Make sure that the coolant expansion bottle
overflow hoses are not kinked or obstructed.
•Keep the front of the radiator clean. If your
vehicle is equipped with air conditioning,
keep the front of the condenser clean.
•Do not change the thermostat for Summer or
Winter operation. If replacement is ever nec-
essary, install ONLY the correct type thermo-
stat. Other designs may result in unsatisfac-
tory engine coolant (antifreeze) performance,
poor gas mileage, and increased emissions.
Brake SystemIn order to assure brake system performance,
all brake system components should be in-spected periodically. Refer to the “Maintenance
Schedule” for the proper maintenance intervals.
WARNING!
Riding the brakes can lead to brake failure
and possibly a collision. Driving with your
foot resting or riding on the brake pedal can
result in abnormally high brake tempera-
tures, excessive lining wear, and possible
brake damage. You would not have your full
braking capacity in an emergency.
Brake Master Cylinder
The fluid level in the master cylinder should be
checked when performing under hood services,
or immediately if the brake system warning light
is on.
Be sure to clean the top of the master cylinder
area before removing the cap. If necessary, add
fluid to bring the fluid level up to the require-
ments described on the brake fluid reservoir.
Fluid level can be expected to fall as the brake
pads wear. The brake fluid level should be
checked when the pads are replaced. However,low fluid level may be caused by a leak and a
checkup may be needed.
NOTE:
If your vehicle is equipped with a manual
transmission, the brake fluid reservoir sup-
plies fluid to both the brake system and the
clutch release system. The two systems are
separated in the reservoir, and a leak in one
system will not affect the other system. The
manual transmission clutch release system
should not require fluid replacement during
the life of the vehicle. If the brake fluid
reservoir is low and the brake system does
not indicate any leaks or other problems, it
may be a result of a leak in the hydraulic
clutch release system. See your local autho-
rized dealer for service.
Use only manufacturer’s recommended brake
fluid. Refer to “Fluids, Lubricants, And Genuine
Parts” in “Maintaining Your Vehicle” for further
information.
