Tire Service Kit Usage Precautions
Replace the Tire Service Kit Sealant Bottle prior to the
expiration date (printed at the lower right hand corner
on the bottle label) to ensure optimum operation of the
system. See the Sealant Bottle Replacement in this
section for further information.
The Sealant Bottle is a one tire application use and
needs to be replaced after each use. Always replace
these components immediately at your original equip-
ment vehicle dealer.
When the Tire Service Kit sealant is in a liquid form,
clean water, and a damp cloth will remove the material
from the vehicle or tire and wheel components. Once
the sealant dries, it can easily be peeled off and prop-
erly discarded.
For optimum performance, make sure the valve stem
on the wheel is free of debris before connecting the
Tire Service Kit.
The Tire Service Kit Sealant is only intended to seal
punctures less than 1/4 inch (6 mm) diameter in the
tread/contact surface of your vehicle’s tires.
The Tire Service Kit Sealant is not intended to seal
punctures on the tires' side walls.
You can use the Tire Service Kit air pump to inflate bicycle
tires. The kit also comes with two needles, located in the
Accessory Storage Compartment (on the bottom of the air
pump) for inflating sport balls, rafts, or similar inflatable
items. However, use only the Air Pump and make sure the
Mode Select Knob is in the Air Mode when inflating such
items to avoid injecting sealant into them.
Do not lift or carry the Tire Service Kit by the hoses.

closest to traffic. Pull far enough off the road to avoid the
danger of being hit when using the Tire Service Kit.

the following circumstances:
If the puncture in the tire tread is approximately
1/4 inch (6 mm) or larger.
If the tire has any sidewall damage.
If the tire has any damage from driving with
extremely low tire pressure.
If the tire has any damage from driving on a flat tire.
If the wheel has any damage.
If you are unsure of the condition of the tire or
the wheel.
