VEHICLE CARE 351
5. Slide the base of the tire sealant
canister (3) into the slot on the top
of the compressor (6) to hold it
upright.
Make sure the tire valve stem is
positioned close to the ground so
the hose will reach it.
6. Remove the valve stem cap from
the flat tire by turning it
counterclockwise.
7. Attach the sealant/air hose (2) to
the tire valve stem by turning it
clockwise until tight.
8. Plug the power plug (9) into the
accessory power outlet in the
vehicle. Unplug all items from
other accessory power outlets. See
Power Outlets 0 99.
If the vehicle has an accessory
power outlet, do not use the
cigarette lighter.
If the vehicle only has a cigarette
lighter, use the cigarette lighter.
Do not pinch the power plug cord
in the door or window.
9. Start the vehicle. The vehicle must
be running while using the air
compressor.
10. Press the on/off button (5) to turn
the tire sealant and compressor
kit on.
The compressor will inject sealant
and air into the tire.
The pressure gauge (8) will initially
show a high pressure while the
compressor pushes the sealant into
the tire. Once the sealant is
completely dispersed into the tire,
the pressure will quickly drop and
start to rise again as the tire
inflates with air only.
11. Inflate the tire to the
recommended inflation pressure
using the pressure gauge (8). The
recommended inflation pressure
can be found on the Tire and
Loading Information label. See Tire
Pressure 0 333.
The pressure gauge (8) may read
higher than the actual tire pressure
while the compressor is on. Turn
the compressor off to get an
accurate pressure reading. The
compressor may be turned on/off
until the correct pressure is
reached.
Caution
If the recommended pressure
cannot be reached after
approximately 25 minutes, the
vehicle should not be driven farther.
The tire is too severely damaged
and the tire sealant and compressor
kit cannot inflate the tire. Remove
the power plug from the accessory
power outlet and unscrew the
inf lating hose from the tire valve.
See Roadside Service 0 397.
