4. Push the air compressor inflator hose onto the
tire valve stem and push the lever down to
secure in place.

an accessory power outlet in the vehicle.
See Accessory Power Outlet(s) on page 154
for more information.
{CAUTION:
Idling the engine in a closed-in place or
with the climate control system off can
cause deadly carbon monoxide (CO). See
Engine Exhaust on page 125.
6. Start the vehicle. See Starting the Engine
(Automatic Engine Start/Stop) on page 113
for more information. The vehicle must
be running while using the air compressor.
{CAUTION:
Inflating something too much can make it
explode, and you or others could be
injured. Be sure to read the inflator
instructions, and inflate the tire to its
recommended pressure. Do not exceed
36 psi (248 kPa).
7. Push the inflator kit switch to the I (on) position.
8. Make sure there is a proper connection
between the tire valve stem and the air
compressor hose by looking at the air
pressure gage. If there is not a pressure
reading while the compressor is running,
the connection between the inflator kit and the
tire is bad.
Check the attachment between the air
compressor hose and the tire valve stem.
