Always do a safety check first.
See If a Tire Goes Flat on
page 9-69
. Do not remove any
objects that have penetrated
the tire.

1. Remove the tire sealant and

compressor kit from its storage
location. See Storing the Tire
Sealant and Compressor Kit
on page 9-77
.

2. Unwrap the sealant/air hose (F)

and the power plug (G).

3. Place the kit on the ground.

Make sure the tire valve
stem is positioned close to the
ground so the hose will reach it.

4. Remove the valve stem cap

from the flat tire by turning it
counterclockwise.

5. Attach the sealant/air hose (F)

onto the tire valve stem. Turn
it clockwise until it is tight.

6. Plug the power plug (G) into the

accessory power outlet in the
vehicle. Unplug all items from
other accessory power outlets.
See Power Outlets on page 4-9.

If the vehicle has an accessory
power outlet, do not use the
cigarette lighter.

If the vehicle only has a cigarette
lighter, use the cigarette lighter.

Do not pinch the power plug
cord in the door or window.

7. Start the vehicle. The vehicle

must be running while using
the air compressor.

8. Turn the selector switch (B)

clockwise to the Sealant + Air
position.

9. Press the on/off (A) button

to turn the tire sealant and
compressor kit on.

The compressor will inject
sealant and air into the tire.

The pressure gage (D) will
initially show a high pressure
while the compressor pushes the
sealant into the tire. Once the
sealant is completely dispersed
into the tire, the pressure will
quickly drop and start to rise
again as the tire inflates with
air only.
