General Information
WARNING: Failure to follow these guidelines could result in an
increased risk of loss of vehicle control, injury or death.
Note: Do not use the temporary mobility kit if a tire has become
severely damaged by driving the vehicle with a tire that has insufficient
air pressure. Only punctured areas located within the tire tread can be
sealed with the temporary mobility kit.
Do not attempt to repair punctures larger than
1
⁄
4
inch (6 millimeters) or
damage to the tire’s sidewall. The tire may not completely seal.
Loss of air pressure may adversely affect tire performance. For this
reason:
• Note: Do not drive the vehicle above 50 mph (80 km/h).
• Note: Do not drive further than 120 miles (200 kilometers). Drive
only to your closest authorized dealer or tire repair shop to have your
tire inspected.
• Drive carefully and avoid abrupt steering maneuvers.
