What to do after the Tire has been
Sealed
After using the kit to seal your tire, you will
need to replace the sealant canister and
clear tube (hose). You can obtain and replace
sealing compound and spare parts at an
authorized Ford dealer or tire dealer. Empty
sealant bottles may be disposed of at home.
However, liquid residue from the sealing
compound should be disposed by your local
Ford Motor Company dealer or tire dealer,
or in accordance with local waste disposal
regulations.
Note: After the sealing compound has been
used, the maximum vehicle speed is 50 mph
(80 km/h) and the maximum driving distance
is 120 mi (200 km). The sealed tire should
be inspected immediately.
Note: After sealant use, the tire pressure
monitoring system sensor and valve stem
on the wheel must be replaced by an
authorized Ford dealer.
You can check the tire pressure any time
within the 120 mi (200 km) by performing the
procedure from Second stage: Checking tire
pressure listed previously.
