Tire Sealant and Compressor Kit
(With Sealant Selector Switch)
Your vehicle has a tire sealant and compressor kit
that is capable of temporarily sealing a puncture up to
1
⁄
4
inch (6mm) in the tread area of the tire. There is
no jack or spare tire. The kit inflates the tire with liquid
sealant and air. The tire sealant and compressor kit
can also be used to inflate an underinflated tire. After the
tire is inflated to the recommended inflation pressure,
see Inflation - Tire Pressure on page 5-67 for more
information, the vehicle must be driven for five miles to
distribute the sealant in the tire and seal the puncture.
After driving five miles the tire pressure must be
rechecked and adjusted as needed. See “Using the
Tire Sealant and Compressor Kit to Temporarily Seal
a Punctured Tire” later in this section. Be sure to
read and follow all of the tire sealant and compressor
kit instructions. The kit includes:
A. Selector Switch
B. On/Off Button
C. Air Pressure Gage
D. Tire Sealant
Canister
E. Air Compressor
Accessory Plug
F. Sealant/Air Hose
(Clear)
G. Air Only Hose
After temporarily sealing the tire sealant and compressor
kit, it is recommended to take your vehicle to an
authorized dealer/retailer as soon as possible. If the
sealant is removed within 100 miles (161 kilometers)
of driving, then it is easier to clean from the tire and you
are less likely to require a replacement tire.
