Vehicle Care

The tire is not sealed and will
continue to leak air until the
vehicle is driven and the
sealant is distributed in the tire;
therefore, Steps 12–18 must be
done immediately after
Step 11.

Be careful while handling the
tire sealant and compressor kit
as it could be warm after
usage.

12. Unplug the power plug (G) from

the accessory power outlet in
the vehicle.

13. Turn the sealant/air hose (F)

counterclockwise to remove it
from the tire valve stem.

14. Replace the tire valve

stem cap.

15. Return the sealant/air hose (F)

and the power plug (G) back in
their original locations.

16. If the flat tire was able to inflate

to the recommended inflation
pressure, remove the
maximum speed label from the
sealant canister and place it in
a highly visible location. Do not
exceed the speed on this label
until the damaged tire is
repaired or replaced.

17. Return the equipment to its

original storage location in the
vehicle.

18. Immediately drive the vehicle

8 km (5 mi) to distribute the
sealant in the tire.

19. Stop at a safe location and

check the tire pressure. Refer
to Steps 1–11 under “Using the
Tire Sealant and Compressor
Kit without Sealant to Inflate a
Tire (Not Punctured).”

If the tire pressure has fallen
more than 68 kPa (10 psi)
below the recommended
inflation pressure, stop driving
the vehicle. The tire is too
severely damaged and the tire
sealant cannot seal the tire.
See Roadside Assistance
Program (U.S. and Canada) on
page 13‑7
or Roadside
Assistance Program (Mexico)
on page 13‑10
.

If the tire pressure has not
dropped more than 68 kPa
(10 psi) from the recommended
inflation pressure, use the
compressor kit to inflate the tire
to the recommended inflation
pressure.
