Tire Sealant
Read and follow the safe handling instructions on the
sealant canister.
The sealant can temporarily seal a small puncture up
to
1
⁄
4
inch (6 mm) in the tread area of the tire. The
sealant cannot seal sidewall damage, large punctures,
or a wheel that has unseated from the wheel. See
Roadside Assistance Program on page 7-7 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.
