CAUTION!
•
Failure to reinstall the cap on the fitting at the end
of the Sealant Hose (4) can result in sealant con-
tacting your skin, clothing, and the vehicle’s inte-
rior. It can also result in sealant contacting internal
Tire Service Kit components which may cause per-
manent damage to the kit.
(D) DRIVE VEHICLE:
Immediately after injecting sealant and inflating the
tire, drive the vehicle 5 miles (8 km) or 10 minutes to
ensure distribution of the Tire Service Kit Sealant within
the tire. Do not exceed 50 mph (80 km/h).
WARNING!
Tire Service Kit is not a permanent flat tire repair.
Have the tire inspected and repaired or replaced after
using Tire Service Kit. Do not exceed 50 mph
(80 km/h) until the tire is repaired or replaced. Fail-
ure to follow this warning can result in injuries that
are serious or fatal to you, your passengers, and oth-
ers around you.

Uncoil the Air Pump Hose (8) (black in color) and screw
the fitting at the end of hose on to the valve stem.
4. Check the pressure in the tire by reading the Pres-
sure Gauge (5).
If tire pressure is less than 19 psi (1.3 Bar):
The tire is too badly damaged. Do not attempt to drive
the vehicle further. Call for assistance.
If the tire pressure is 19 psi (1.3 Bar) or higher:
1. Push the Power Button (3) to turn on Tire Service Kit
and inflate the tire to the pressure indicated on the

mended inflation pressure before continuing.
2. Disconnect the Tire Service Kit from the valve stem,
reinstall the cap on the valve stem and unplug from
12 Volt outlet.

in the vehicle.
4. Have the tire inspected and repaired or replaced at
the earliest opportunity at an authorized dealer or
tire service center.
5. Remove the Speed Limit sticker from the instrument
panel after the tire has been repaired.
6. Replace the Sealant Bottle (1) and Sealant Hose (4)
assembly at an authorized dealer as soon as
