10. Inflate the tire to the recommended inflation
pressure using the air pressure gage (E) on the top
of the unit. The recommended inflation pressure
can be found on the Tire and Loading Information
label. See Inflation - Tire Pressure on page 5-66.
The pressure gage reading is slightly high while the
compressor is on. Turn the compressor off to get
an accurate pressure reading. The compressor may
be turned on and 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 air compressor
plug from the accessory power outlet and unscrew
the inflating hose from the tire valve. See Roadside
Service on page 7-7.
11. Turn the compressor off by pushing the On/Off
switch (D) to the O (off) position.
The tire is not sealed and will continue to leak
air until the vehicle is driven and the sealant
is distributed in the tire.
Steps 12 through 19 must be done immediately
after Step 11.
Be careful while handling the tire sealant and
compressor kit as they could be hot after usage.
12. Unplug the air compressor accessory plug (C) from
the accessory power outlet in the vehicle.
13. Disconnect the sealant/air hose (G) from the tire
valve stem by turning it counterclockwise and
replace the tire valve stem cap.
14. Wrap the sealant/air hose (G) around the air
compressor channel to stow it in its original location.
15. Stow the air compressor accessory plug (C) back
in the air compressor. To do this, wrap the air
compressor accessory plug, snap in the plug, and
then push in the bottom and then the top of the
wrapped air compressor accessory plug.
16. If the flat tire was able
to be inflated to the
recommended inflation
pressure, remove the
maximum speed label
from the sealant
canister (B).
