WARNING: Only use
replacement tires and wheels that are
the same size, load index, speed rating
and type (such as P-metric versus
LT-metric or all-season versus
all-terrain) as those originally provided
by Ford. The recommended tire and
wheel size may be found on either the
Safety Compliance Certification Label
(affixed to either the door hinge pillar,
door-latch post, or the door edge that
meets the door-latch post, next to the
driver's seating position), or the Tire
Label which is located on the B-Pillar
or edge of the driver's door. If this
information is not found on these
labels, then you should contact your
authorized dealer as soon as possible.
Use of any tire or wheel not
recommended by Ford can affect the
safety and performance of your
vehicle, which could result in an
increased risk of loss of vehicle
control, vehicle rollover, personal
injury and death. WARNING: To reduce the risk of
serious injury, when mounting
replacement tires and wheels, you
should not exceed the maximum
pressure indicated on the sidewall of
the tire to set the beads without
additional precautions listed below. If
the beads do not seat at the maximum
pressure indicated, re-lubricate and
try again. WARNING:
For a mounting
pressure more than 20 psi (1.38 bar)
greater than the maximum pressure,
a Ford dealer or other tire service
professional should do the mounting. WARNING:
Always inflate steel
carcass tires with a remote air fill with
the person inflating standing at a
minimum of
12 ft (3.66 m) away from
the wheel and tire assembly. WARNING:
When inflating the
tire for mounting pressures up to
20 psi (1.38 bar)
greater than the
maximum pressure on the tire sidewall,
the following precautions must be
taken to protect the person mounting
the tire:
• Make sure that you have the correct
tire and wheel size.
• Lubricate the tire bead and wheel
bead seat area again.
• Stand at a minimum of
12 ft (3.66 m)
away from the wheel and tire
assembly.
• Use both eye and ear protection.
Important:
Remember to replace the
wheel valve stems when the road tires
are replaced on your vehicle.

WHAT IS THE TIRE SEALANT AND
INFLATOR KIT
Tire Inflator and Sealant Kit
The kit consists of an air compressor to
re-inflate the tire and a canister of sealing
compound that will effectively seal most
punctures. This kit will provide a temporary
tire repair allowing you to drive your vehicle
up to 120 mi (200 km) at a maximum speed
of 50 mph (80 km/h) to reach a tire service
location.
Note: The temporary mobility kit contains
enough sealant compound in the canister
for one tire repair only. See an authorized
dealer for replacement sealant canisters.
TIRE SEALANT AND INFLATOR KIT

Do not attempt to repair punctures larger
than
0.24 in (6 mm) or damage to the tire's
sidewall. The tire may not completely seal.
• Drive carefully and avoid abrupt steering
maneuvers.
• Periodically monitor tire inflation pressure
in the affected tire; if the tire is losing
pressure, have the vehicle towed.
• Read the information in the Tips for Use
of the Kit section to make sure safe
operation of the kit and your vehicle. LOCATING THE TIRE SEALANT
AND INFLATOR KIT

You should always have your tires
serviced by an authorized dealer.
Check the tire pressure periodically (at
least monthly) using an accurate tire
gauge. See When Inflating Your Tires
in this chapter.
When Inflating Your Tires
When putting air into your tires (such as
at a gas station or in your garage), the
tire pressure monitoring system may not
respond immediately to the air added
to your tires. It may take up to two minutes of driving
over
20 mph (32 km/h) for the light to
turn off after you have filled your tires to
the recommended inflation pressure.
When Your Temporary Spare Tire is
Installed
When one of your road tires needs to
be replaced with the temporary spare,
the system will continue to identify an
issue to remind you that the damaged
road wheel and tire assembly needs to
be repaired and put back on your
vehicle. To restore the full function of the tire
pressure monitoring system, have the
damaged road wheel and tire assembly
repaired and remounted on your vehicle.
