9. Push the On/Off button (B).
The tire sealant and compressor kit will inject
sealant and air into the tire. Sealant may leak from
the puncture until the vehicle is driven and the
hole has sealed.
The pressure gage (C) will initially show a high
pressure while the compressor pushes the sealant
into the tire. Once the sealant is completely
dispersed into the tire, the pressure will quickly drop
and start to rise again as the tire inflates with air only.
10. Inflate the tire to the recommended inflation
pressure using the air pressure gage (E) on the top
of the unit. The recommended inflation pressure
can be found on the Tire and Loading Information
label. See Inflation - Tire Pressure on page 5-56.
The pressure gage reading is slightly high while the
compressor is on. Turn the compressor off to get
an accurate reading. The compressor may be turned
on and off until the correct pressure is reached.
Notice: If the recommended pressure cannot be
reached after 20 minutes, the vehicle should not
be driven farther. Damage to the tire is severe and
the sealant will not be effective. Remove the air
compressor plug from the accessory power outlet
and unscrew the inflating hose from the tire valve.
See Roadside Assistance Program on page 7-7 for
more information.
11. Turn the compressor off by pushing the On/Off
switch (B).
Steps 12 through 20 must be done immediately
after Step 11.
The tire is not sealed and will continue to leak
air until the vehicle is driven and the sealant
is distributed in the tire.
Be careful while handling the tire sealant and
compressor kit as they could be hot after usage.
12. Unplug the air compressor accessory plug (E) from
the accessory power outlet in the vehicle.
13. Disconnect the sealant/air hose (F) from the tire
valve stem by turning it counterclockwise and
replace the tire valve stem cap.
14. Wrap the sealant/air hose (F) around the air
compressor channel to stow it in its original location.
15. Stow the air compressor accessory plug (E)
back into place.
