5. Remove the protective cap

of the hose
and screw the hose securely onto the tire
valve. Make sure that the pressure release

is securely tightened. 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”
position. 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 pressure
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
inflating the tire. The pressure gauge is
indicating the pressure inside the sea-
lant 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 repair 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
inflated because of the risk of the
rupture. If there are any cracks or
bumps, turn the compressor off
immediately.
