5. Remove the protective cap
O
A
of the
hose and screw the hose securely onto
the tire valve. Make sure that the pres-
sure release valve
O
B
is securely tight-
ened. Make sure that the air compressor
switch is in the OFF (O) position, and
then insert the power plug into the
power outlet in the vehicle.
6. Push the power switch to the ACC posi-
tion. Then turn the compressor switch
to the ON (−) position and inflate the tire
up to the pressure that is specified on
the Tire and Loading Information label
affixed to the driver’s side center pillar if
possible, or to the minimum of 26 psi
(180 kPa). Turn the air compressor off
briefly in order to check the tire pressure
with the pressure gauge.
If the tire is inflated to higher than the
specified pressure, lower the tire pres-
sure by releasing air with the pressure
release valve.
NOTE:
The compressor tire pressure gauge
may show a pressure reading of 87 psi
(600 kPa) for about 30 seconds while in-
flating the tire. The pressure gauge is in-
dicating the pressure inside the sealant
can. When the sealant has been injected
into the tire the pressure gauge will drop
and indicate actual tire pressure.
WARNING
To avoid serious personal injury while
using the emergency tire puncture re-
pair kit:
• Securely tighten the compressor
hose to the tire valve. Failure to do so
can cause the sealant to spray into
the air and get into your eyes or on
the skin.
• Do not stand directly beside the
damaged tire while it is being in-
flated because of the risk of the rup-
ture. If there are any cracks or bumps,
turn the compressor off
immediately.
