Vehicle Care

10-81

The pressure gauge (D) 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.

Notice: 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 inflating hose from
the tire valve. See Roadside
Assistance Program (U.S. and
Canada) on page 13‑7
or
Roadside Assistance Program
(Mexico) on page 13‑10
.

11. Press the on/off button (A)

to turn the tire sealant and
compressor kit off.

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 through 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 miles) to distribute the
sealant in the tire.
