Tire Service Kit Components And Operation

Using The Mode Select Knob And Hoses
Your Tire Service Kit is equipped with the follow-

ing symbols to indicate the air or sealant mode.

turn On the Tire Service Kit. Push and release the

Power Button (4) again to turn Off the Tire Ser-

vice Kit.

Press the Deflation Button (2) to reduce the air

pressure in the tire if it becomes over-inflated.

Tire Service Kit Usage Precautions

• Replace the Tire Service Kit Sealant Bottle (1) and Sealant Hose (6) prior to the expiration

date (printed on the bottle label) to assure optimum operation of the system. Refer to “Sealing

A Tire With Tire Service Kit” section (F) “Sealant Bottle and Hose Replacement.”

• The Sealant Bottle (1) and Sealant Hose (6) are a one tire application use. After each use,

always replace these components immediately at an authorized dealer.

• When the Tire Service Kit sealant is in a liquid form, clean water, and a damp cloth will remove

the material from the vehicle or tire and wheel components. Once the sealant dries, it can

easily be peeled off and properly discarded.

• For optimum performance, make sure the valve stem on the wheel is free of debris before

connecting the Tire Service Kit.

• You can use the Tire Service Kit air pump to inflate bicycle tires. The kit also comes with two needles,

located in the Accessory Storage Compartment (on the bottom of the air pump) for inflating sport

balls, rafts, or similar inflatable items. However, use only the Air Pump Hose (7) and make sure the

Mode Select Knob (5) is in the Air Mode when inflating such items to avoid injecting sealant into

them. The Tire Service Kit Sealant is only intended to seal punctures less than 1/4 inch (6 mm)

diameter in the tread of your vehicle.

• Do not lift or carry the Tire Service Kit by the hoses.
