9. Press the switch (3) on the air pump to 1. The air pump
should start to inflate the tire.
10. After five minutes, the tire should be inflated to at
least 26 psi (1.8 bar) on the pressure gauge (4).
11. If the tire doesn’t inflate to this level, press the air
pump switch (3) to 0, disconnect the TIREFIT system
from the tire, and drive the vehicle back and forth
approximately 30 feet (9.1 m) to distribute the sealant
more evenly within the tire.
12. Attach the air pump hose (1) directly to the tire, press
the switch (3) to 1, and inflate the tire again. NOTE: If a
tire pressure of 26 psi (1.8 bar) is not reached after five
minutes, the tire is too badly damaged. Do not attempt to
drive the vehicle further, and call for assistance.
13. If a tire pressure of 26 psi (1.8 bar) is obtained, press
the air pump switch (3) to 0, turn the ignition switch to
the OFF/LOCK position, and disconnect the TIREFIT
system.
14. Drive the vehicle for about 10 minutes to ensure
optimum distribution of the tire sealant within the tire.
15. Check the pressure in the tire. If the pressure is above
19 psi (1.3 bar), inflate the tire to the pressure indicated
on the tire pressure label on the driver side latch pillar.
16. Have the tire inspected at the earliest opportunity at
an authorized dealer or tire service center.
NOTE:
•
If a pressure of at least 19 psi (1.3 bar) cannot be
maintained in the tire, the tire is too badly damaged.
Do not attempt to drive the vehicle further, and call for
assistance.
