8. Inflate the tire to the recommended inflation
pressure, found on the Tire and Loading Information
label located on the vehicle’s center pillar (B-pillar)
below the vehicle’s door latch, using the air
pressure gage on the top of the unit.
The pressure gage reads high while the compressor
is running. Turn the compressor off to get an
accurate pressure reading.
Notice: If the recommended pressure cannot be
reached after 15 minutes, the vehicle should not
be driven. The tire is too severely damaged
and cannot be inflated or sealed with the tire sealant
and compressor kit. Remove the air compressor
accessory plug from the accessory power outlet
and unscrew the sealant filling hose from the
tire valve or tire pressure monitoring sensor valve.
See Roadside Assistance Program on page 7-7.
9. Push the On/Off switch to the O (off) position
once the correct tire pressure is obtained.
10. The tire is not sealed and will continue to leak
air until the vehicle is driven and the sealant is
distributed in the tire.
Steps 11 through 17 must be done right after
Step 10.
11. Unplug the air compressor accessory plug from
the accessory power outlet in the vehicle.
12. Disconnect the sealant filling hose from the tire
valve stem, by turning it counterclockwise, and
replace the tire valve stem cap.
Be careful when handling the tire inflator
components as they could be hot after usage.
13. Wrap the sealant filling hose around the air
compressor channel to stow it in its original location.
14. Stow the air compressor accessory plug back in the
air compressor. To do this, wrap the air compressor
accessory plug, snap in the plug, and then push
in the bottom and then the top of the wrapped
air compressor accessory plug.
15. If the flat tire was
able to inflate to the
recommended inflation
pressure, remove
the maximum speed
label from the sealant
canister.
Place it in a highly visible location such as the
inside of the upper left corner of the windshield
or to the face of the radio/clock.
