Tire Sealant
Read and follow the safe handling instructions on the
instructional label adhered to the sealant canister.
The sealant can temporarily seal a 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
tire that has become unseated from the wheel.
See Roadside Assistance Program on page 7-7.
The sealant can only be used to seal one tire.
After usage, the tire sealant canister and sealant/air
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. The sealant canister should be replaced before
its expiration date. Replacement canisters are available
at your local dealer/retailer. See “Removal and
Installation of Sealant Canister” later in this section.
