a high pressure while the compressor
pushes the sealant into the tire. Once
the sealant is completely dispersed into
the tire, the pressure will quickly drop
and start to rise again as the tire inflates
with air only.
10. Inflate the tire to the recommended inflation pressure using the pressure
gauge (6). The recommended inflation
pressure can be found on the Tire and
Loading Information label. See Tire
Pressure 0349.
The pressure gauge (6) 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.

{Warning
Unexpected wheel motion and/or
direction when one or more wheels are
off the ground for service work may
result in injury. The vehicle may:
.Allow the wheels to rotate
unexpectedly in either direction
regardless of mode selection.
.Allow the wheels to rotate in reaction
to attempts to rotate the tire(s)
manually.
.Resist attempts to rotate the wheels
manually.
Before lifting the vehicle to do your own
service work, turn the vehicle off or place
the vehicle in the Service Mode. To place
the vehicle in Service Mode, see “Service
Mode” underPower Modes 0197.3. Turn the wheel wrench counterclockwise
to loosen all the wheel nuts, but do not

{Warning
Getting under a vehicle when it is lifted
on a jack is dangerous. If the vehicle slips
off the jack, you could be badly injured
or killed. Never get under a vehicle when
it is supported only by a jack.
{Warning
Raising the vehicle with the jack
improperly positioned can damage the
vehicle and even make the vehicle fall. To
help avoid personal injury and vehicle
damage, be sure to fit the jack lift head
into the proper location before raising
the vehicle.
{Warning
Lifting a vehicle and getting under it to
do maintenance or repairs is dangerous
without the appropriate safety equipment
and training. If a jack is provided with
the vehicle, it is designed only for
changing a flat tire. If it is used for
anything else, you or others could be
badly injured or killed if the vehicle slips
off the jack. If a jack is provided with the
vehicle, only use it for changing a
flat tire.
