Your vehicle is equipped with a tire sealing system that enables you to temporarily seal a hole in the tread surface and
re-inflate a flat tire, or to adjust a tire's inflation pressure.

The tire sealing kit is stowed behind the ski hatch in the center of the rear seat backrest.
The jack, and lug wrench are secured in a foam plastic block located under the floor panel in the trunk.

The system consists of an air compressor, an integrated container for the sealing compound, wiring to connect the
system to the vehicle's electrical system via one of the 12-volt sockets, and a hose used to connect the system to the
tire's inflation valve.

NOTE:

The tire sealing system is only intended to seal holes on the tire's tread area, not the sidewall.
Tires with large holes or tears cannot be repaired with the tire sealing system.

WARNING!

After using the tire sealing system, the vehicle should not be driven farther than approximately 120 miles (200

km). Have the tire replaced as soon as possible.

The vehicle should not be driven faster than 50 mph (80 km/h) while using a tire that has been temporarily

repaired with the tire sealing system.

After using the tire sealing system, drive carefully and avoid abrupt steering maneuvers and sudden stops.
