18. Insert the air compressor plug into
the accessory socket inside the vehicle
and place the ignition to ACC.
19. Turn the air compressor switch on
and inflate the tire carefully to the
correct inflation pressure. For the
correct pressure, check the tire inflation
pressure label on the driver's door
frame.
Note: When inserting the air
compressor plug into or removing it
from the accessory socket, make sure
that the air compressor switch is off.
When turning the air compressor on/off,
use the air compressor switch. Before
checking the tire inflation pressure using
the tire pressure gauge, turn the air
compressor switch off.
Caution!
If the tire inflation pressure does not
increase, repair of the tire is not possible. If
the tire does not reach the specified tire
inflation pressure within 10 minutes, it may
have received extensive damage. In this
case, the repair using the tire service kit
was not successful.
Do not operate the air compressor for a
continuous 10 minutes or longer because
using it for long periods could cause a
malfunction.
Note: If the tire has been over
inflated, loosen the screw cap on the air
compressor and bleed some of the air
out.
20. When the tire inflates to the
specified tire inflation pressure, turn the
air compressor switch off, turn the
sleeve of the air compressor hose to
the left, and pull it out of the tire valve.
21. Install the tire valve cap.
22. Place the Tire Service Kit back into
its storage location.
23. Start driving immediately to spread
the sealant in the tire.
Note:
Carefully drive the vehicle at a
speed of 50 mph (80 km/h) or less. If
the vehicle is driven at a speed of
50 mph (80 km/h) or more, the vehicle
may vibrate.
With TPMS System: if the tire is
not properly inflated, the
warning
light will illuminate.
After driving the vehicle for about
10 minutes or 3 miles (5 km), connect
the air compressor to the tire using
step nine of the procedure, and check
the tire inflation pressure using the tire
pressure gauge on the air compressor.
If the tire inflation pressure is lower
than the specified tire inflation
pressure, turn the air compressor on
and wait until it reaches the specified
tire inflation pressure;
The emergency flat tire repair is
completed successfully if the tire
inflation pressure does not decrease.
Carefully drive the vehicle to the
nearest authorized dealer and have the
flat tire replaced. Replacement with a
new tire is recommended. If the tire is
to be repaired or reused, contact a
authorized dealer.
If an emergency flat tire repair has
been performed using the Tire Service
Kit, FCA recommends that the tire be
replaced with a new one as soon as
possible. If the tire is to be repaired or
reused, contact an authorized dealer.
