Cadillac 2008 CTS Automobile User Manual


 
11. Inflate the tire to the recommended inflation
pressure, found on the Tire and Loading Information
label using the air pressure gage on the top of
the unit. See Inflation - Tire Pressure on page 5-67.
The pressure gage reads high while the compressor
is running. Turn the compressor off to get an
accurate pressure reading.
Notice: If the recommended pressure cannot be
reached after 15 minutes, the vehicle should not be
driven farther. Damage to the tire is severe and
the sealant will not be effective. Remove the
air compressor plug from the accessory power
outlet and unscrew the inflating hose from the tire
valve. See Roadside Service on page 7-6.
12. Push the on/off switch (D) to the O (off) position.
13. 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 13 through 20 must be done right after
Step 11.
14. Unplug the air compressor accessory plug (C) from
the accessory power outlet in the vehicle.
15. Disconnect the sealant/air hose from the tire valve
stem, by turning it counterclockwise, and replace
the tire valve stem cap.
Be careful when handling the tire inflator
components as they may be hot after usage.
16. Wrap the sealant/air hose around the air
compressor channel to stow it in its original location.
17. Stow the air compressor accessory plug 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.
