5. Remove the warning sticker found on

the casing/housing and place it on the
top of the instrument panel or the
center of the dash.

running so the compressor does not
drain the vehicle’s battery.

7.

Turn dial (A) clockwise to the sealant
position. Switch the kit on by pressing
the on/off button (B).

8. Inflate the tire to the pressure listed on

the tire label located on the driver's
door or the door jamb area. The initial
air pressure gauge reading may indicate
a value higher than the label pressure
while you pump the sealing compound
into the tire. This is normal and should
be no reason for concern. The pressure

gauge reading will indicate the tire
inflation pressure after about 30
seconds of operation. You should
check the final tire pressure with the
compressor turned OFF in order to get
an accurate pressure reading.

9. When the tire reaches the

recommended tire pressure, switch off
the kit, unplug the power cable, and
disconnect the hose from the tire valve.
Re-install the valve cap on the tire
valve and return the kit to the stowage
area.

10.

Immediately and cautiously, drive the
vehicle 4 miles (6 kilometers) to
distribute the sealant evenly inside
the tire. Do not exceed 50 mph (80
km/h).

11.

After 4 miles (6 kilometers), stop and
check the tire pressure. See Second
Stage: Checking Tire Pressure.
