1Injecting Sealant and Air
NOTICE
Do not operate the temporary tire repair kit
compressor for more than 15 minutes. The
compressor can overheat and become permanently
damaged.
Until the sealant injection is complete, the pressure
shown on the pressure gauge will appear higher than
actual. After the sealant injection is complete the
pressure will drop and then begin to rise again as the
tire is inflated with air. This is normal. To accurately
measure the air pressure usi ng the gauge, turn the air
compressor off only after the sealant injection is
complete.
3WARNING
Running the engine with the vehicle in an
enclosed or even partly enclosed area can
cause a rapid build-up of toxic carbon
monoxide.
Breathing this colorless, odorless gas can
cause unconsciousness and even death.
Only run the engine to power the air
compressor with th e vehicle outdoors.

7. Press the inflator switch to turn on the kit.
u The compressor starts injecting sealant
and air into the tire.
u When the sealant injection is complete,
continue to add air.
8. After the air pressure reaches to specified
pressure, turn off the kit.
u To check the pressure, occasionally turn
off the compressor and read the gauge.
u Refer to the driver’s doorjamb label for
the specified pressure.
9. Unplug the power plug from the accessory
power socket.
10. Unscrew the sealant/ai r hose from the tire
valve stem. Reinstall the valve cap.
11. Press the pressure relief button until the
gauge returns to 0 psi (0 kPa).
12. Apply the repair notification label to the
flat surface of the wheel.

1Injecting Sealant and Air
If the required air pressure is not reached within 10
minutes, the tire may be too severely damaged for
the kit to provide the necessa ry seal, and your vehicle
will need to be towed.
See a dealer for a replacement sealant bottle and
proper disposal of an empty bottle.

6. If the air pressure is
• Less than 25 psi (175 kPa):
Do not add air or continue driving. The leak is too severe. Call for help and have
your vehicle towed.
2 Emergency Towing P. 644
•Front: 33 psi (225 kPa)/rear: 32 psi (220 kPa) or more:
Continue driving for another 10 minutes or until you reach the nearest service
station, whichever is sooner. Do not exce ed 50 mph (80 km/h). If you have not
reached a service station, stop and check the tire pressure.
u If the air pressure does not go down after the 10 minute dr iving, you do not
need to check the pressure any more.
• Greater than 25 psi (175 kPa), but less than front: 33 psi (225 kPa)/rear: 32
psi (220 kPa):
Turn the air compressor on to inflate the ti re until the tire pressure reaches front:
33 psi (225 kPa)/rear: 32 psi (220 kPa).
2 Inflating an Under-inflated Tire P. 621
Then drive carefully for 10 more minute s or until you reach the nearest service
station, whichever is sooner. Do not exce ed 50 mph (80 km/h). If you have not
reached a service station, stop and check the tire pressure.
u You should repeat this procedure as long as the air pressure is within this range.
7. Unplug the kit from the accessory power
