Tire Sealant
Read and follow the safe handling instructions on the
sealant canister.
The sealant can temporarily seal small punctures in the
tread area of the tire. The sealant cannot seal sidewall
damage, large punctures, or a tire that has unseated
from the wheel. See Roadside Service on page 7-6 if
you need assistance.
The sealant can only be used to seal one tire. After
usage, the sealant canister and sealant filling hose
assembly must be replaced at a dealer/retailer. See
Removal and Installation of Sealant Canister later in
this section.
Check the tire sealant expiration date on the sealant
canister, if it has expired, see your dealer/retailer for a
replacement.
Using the Tire Sealant and
Compressor Kit
Follow these directions closely for correct sealant usage.
1. Place the sealant and compressor kit on the ground
and unwrap the sealant filling hose from the
compressor.
2. Remove the air compressor accessory plug from
the unit. To do this, pull the top portion of the
wrapped cord out first, then the bottom, and then
unsnap the plug. Do not insert the plug into an
accessory outlet yet.
3. Remove the valve stem cap or tire pressure
monitoring sensor from the flat tire by turning
it counterclockwise.
If an object, such as a nail, has penetrated the tire,
do not remove it.
