Tire Sealant
The kit contains a liquid sealant that when injected into a
flat tire, may temporarily repair nail holes or cuts in the
tread area of the tire. The tire sealant cannot repair tire
damage caused while driving on a flat tire or a tire that
has had a “blow out” or a tire that has punctures in the
sidewall areas. The tire sealant solution is to be used for
a single tire and can only be used once.
Check the tire sealant expiration date on the sealant
canister. The sealant may not be as effective beyond the
expiration date. If needed, see your GM dealer for a
replacement canister.
After temporarily repairing a tire using the tire sealant,
take your vehicle to an authorized GM dealer to have the
tire inspected and repaired.
Using the Tire Inflator Kit
To use the tire inflator kit, do the following:
1. Place the inflator 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 from the flat tire by
turning it counterclockwise.
If an object, such as a nail, has penetrated the tire,
do not remove it.
