3. Place the compressor on theground near the flat tire.
Make sure the tire valve stem is
positioned close to the ground so
the hose will reach it.
4. Remove the valve stem cap from the flat tire by turning it
counterclockwise.
5. Attach the air only hose (10) to the tire valve stem by turning it
clockwise until tight.
6. Plug the power plug (9) into the accessory power outlet in the
vehicle. Unplug all items from
other accessory power outlets. See
Power Outlets 092.
Do not pinch the power plug cord
in the door or window.
7. Start the vehicle. The vehicle must be running while using the air
compressor.
8. Press the on/off button (5) to turn the tire sealant and compressor
kit on.
The compressor will inflate the tire
with air only. 9. Inflate the tire to the
recommended inflation pressure
using the pressure gauge (8). The
recommended inflation pressure
can be found on the Tire and
Loading Information label. See Tire
Pressure 0374.
The pressure gauge (8) may read
higher than the actual tire pressure
while the compressor is on. Turn
the compressor off to get an
accurate pressure reading. The
compressor may be turned on/off
until the correct pressure is
reached.
Caution
If the recommended pressure
cannot be reached after
approximately 25 minutes, the
vehicle should not be driven farther.
The tire is too severely damaged
and the tire sealant and compressor
kit cannot inflate the tire. Remove
the power plug from the accessory
power outlet and unscrew the
inflating hose from the tire valve. 10. Press the on/off button (5) to turn
the tire sealant and compressor
kit off.
Be careful while handling the
compressor as it could be warm
after usage.
11. Unplug the power plug (9) from the accessory power outlet in the
vehicle.
12. Turn the air only hose (10) counterclockwise to remove it from
the tire valve stem.
13. Replace the tire valve stem cap.
14. Return the air only hose (10) and power plug (9) back to their
original storage location.
15. Return the equipment to its original storage location in the
vehicle.
The tire sealant and compressor kit
has accessory adapters located in a
compartment on the bottom of its
housing that can be used to inflate air
mattresses, balls, etc.

Warning (Continued)
Battery fluid contains acid that can
burn you. Do not get it on you.
If you accidentally get it in your
eyes or on your skin, flush the place
with water and get medical help
immediately.
{Warning
Fans or other moving engine parts
can injure you badly. Keep your
hands away from moving parts
once the engine is running.
5. Connect one end of the red positive (+) cable to the remote
positive (+) terminal on the
discharged battery.
6. Connect the other end of the red positive (+) cable to the positive (+)
terminal of the good battery.
7. Connect one end of the black negative (–) cable to the
negative (–) terminal of the good
battery. Do not let the other end touch
anything until the next step. The
other end of the negative (–) cable
does not go to the dead battery.
It goes to a heavy, unpainted metal
engine part.
8. Connect the other end of the black negative (–) cable to the
negative (–) grounding point for the
discharged battery.
9. Start the engine in the vehicle with the good battery and run the
engine at idle speed for at least
four minutes.
10. Try to start the vehicle that had the dead battery. If it will not start
after a few tries, it probably needs
service.
Caution
If the jumper cables are connected
or removed in the wrong order,
electrical shorting may occur and
damage the vehicle. The repairs
would not be covered by the vehicle
warranty. Always connect and
remove the jumper cables in the
(Continued)

secure the vehicle to the flatbed
tow truck. Do not strap or hook to
any frame, underbody,
or suspension component not

398 VEHICLE CARE
V-Series Blackwing Only
Due to low ramp angles on the
V-Series Blackwing, use care when
loading the vehicle onto a flatbed
carrier. Front spring spacers were
provided for lifting the front
suspension if more clearance is
necessary when towing.
Front Tow Eye
The vehicle is equipped with a tow
eye. Only use the tow eye to pull the
vehicle onto a flatbed car carrier from
a flat road surface. Do not use the tow
eye to pull the vehicle from snow,
mud, or sand. The tow eye is located
under the carpet in the trunk.
Carefully open the cover in the fascia
by using the small notch that conceals
the tow eye socket.
Install the tow eye into the socket and
turn it until it is fully tightened. When
the tow eye is removed, reinstall the
cover with the notch in the original
position.
Rear Tow Eye
If equipped, carefully open the cover
by using the small notch that conceals
the rear tow eye socket. Install the
tow eye into the socket and turn it
until it is fully tightened. When the
tow eye is removed, reinstall the cover
with the notch in the original
position.
