Tire Service Kit Usage Precautions
•
Replace the Tire Service Kit Sealant Bottle prior to
the expiration date (printed at the lower right hand
corner on the bottle label) to assure optimum opera-
tion of the system. See the Sealant Bottle Replace-
ment in this section for further information.
•
The Sealant Bottle is a one tire application use and
needs to be replaced after each use. Always replace
these components immediately at your original
equipment vehicle dealer.
•
When the Tire Service Kit sealant is in a liquid form,
clean water, and a damp cloth will remove the mate-
rial 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 connect-
ing the Tire Service Kit.
•
The Tire Service Kit Sealant is only intended to seal
punctures less than 1/4 inch (6 mm) diameter in
the tread/contact surface of your vehicle’s tires.
•
The Tire Service Kit Sealant is not intended to seal
punctures on the tires' side walls.
•
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 and make sure the Mode Select Knob
is in the Air Mode when inflating such items to avoid
injecting sealant into them.
•
Do not lift or carry the Tire Service Kit by the hoses.
WARNING!
•
Do not attempt to seal a tire on the side of the
vehicle closest to traffic. Pull far enough off the
road to avoid the danger of being hit when using
the Tire Service Kit.
•
Do not use Tire Service Kit or drive the vehicle
under the following circumstances:
○ If the puncture in the tire tread is approximately
1/4 inch (6 mm) or larger.
○ If the tire has any sidewall damage.
○ If the tire has any damage from driving with
extremely low tire pressure.
○ If the tire has any damage from driving on a flat
tire.
○ If the wheel has any damage.
○ If you are unsure of the condition of the tire or
the wheel.
•
Keep Tire Service Kit away from open flames or
heat source.
•
A loose Tire Service Kit thrown forward in a colli-
sion or hard stop could endanger the occupants of
the vehicle.

WARNING!
Always stow the Tire Service Kit in the place pro-
vided. Failure to follow these warnings can result in
injuries that are serious or fatal to you, your pas-
sengers, and others around you.
•
Take care not to allow the contents of Tire Service
Kit to come in contact with hair, eyes, or clothing.
Tire Service Kit sealant is harmful if inhaled, swal-
lowed, or absorbed through the skin. It causes
skin, eye, and respiratory irritation. Flush immedi-
ately with plenty of water if there is any contact
with eyes or skin. Change clothing as soon as pos-
sible, if there is any contact with clothing.
•
Tire Service Kit Sealant solution contains latex. In
case of an allergic reaction or rash, consult a phy-
sician immediately. Keep Tire Service Kit out of
reach of children. If swallowed, rinse mouth imme-
diately with plenty of water and drink plenty of
water. Do not induce vomiting! Consult a physician
immediately.
Sealing A Tire With Tire Service Kit
Whenever You Stop To Use Tire Service Kit:
1. Pull over to a safe location and turn on the vehicle’s
Hazard Warning Flashers.
2. Verify that the valve stem (on the wheel with the
deflated tire) is in a position that is near to the
ground. This will allow the Tire Service Kit Hose to
reach the valve stem and keep the Tire Service Kit
flat on the ground. This will provide the best posi-
tioning of the kit when injecting the sealant into the
deflated tire and running the air pump. Move the
vehicle as necessary to place the valve stem in this
position before proceeding.
