If the sealant (white fluid) does flow through the
Sealant Hose (6):
1. Continue to operate the pump until seal-
ant is no longer flowing through the hose
(typically takes 30 - 70 seconds). As the
sealant flows through the Sealant Hose
(6), the Pressure Gauge (3) can read as
high as 70 psi (4.8 Bar). The Pressure
Gauge (3) will decrease quickly from ap-
proximately 70 psi (4.8 Bar) to the actual
tire pressure when the Sealant Bottle (1)
is empty.
2. The pump will start to inject air into the
tire immediately after the Sealant Bottle
(1) is empty. Continue to operate the
pump and inflate the tire to the pressure
indicated on the tire pressure label on the
driver-side latch pillar (recommended
pressure). Check the tire pressure by look-
ing at the Pressure Gauge (3).
If the tire does not inflate to at least 26 psi
(1.8 Bar) pressure within 15 minutes:
The tire is too badly damaged. Do not at-
tempt to drive the vehicle further. Call for
assistance.
NOTE:
If the tire becomes overinflated, push the
Deflation Button (2) to reduce the tire pres-
sure to the recommended inflation pressure
before continuing.
If the tire inflates to the recommended pressure
or is at least 26 psi (1.8 Bar) pressure within
15 minutes:
1. Push the Power Button (4) to turn off the
Tire Service Kit.
2. Remove the Speed Limit sticker from the
top of the Sealant Bottle (1) and place the
sticker on the instrument panel.
3. Immediately disconnect the Sealant Hose
(6) from the valve stem, reinstall the cap
on the fitting at the end of the hose, and
place the Tire Service Kit in the vehicle
storage location. Quickly proceed to (D)
“Drive Vehicle.”
CAUTION!
The metal end fitting from Power Plug
(8) may get hot after use, so it should be
handled carefully.
CAUTION!
Failure to reinstall the cap on the fitting at
the end of the Sealant Hose (6) can result
in sealant contacting your skin, clothing,
and the vehicle’s interior. It can also result
in sealant contacting internal Tire Service
Kit components which may cause perma-
nent damage to the kit.
(D) Drive Vehicle:
Immediately after injecting sealant and in-
flating the tire, drive the vehicle 5 miles
(8 km) or ten minutes to ensure distribution
of the Tire Service Kit Sealant within the tire.
Do not exceed 50 mph (80 km/h).
WARNING!
Tire Service Kit is not a permanent flat tire
repair. Have the tire inspected and re-
paired or replaced after using Tire Service
Kit. Do not exceed 50 mph (80 km/h) until
the tire is repaired or replaced. Failure to
follow this warning can result in injuries
that are serious or fatal to you, your pas-
sengers, and others around you.
