Using the TMK

1. Detach the speed limit label (1) from the sealant bottle (2) and place it in a visible location inside the vehicle, such as on the steering wheel, to remind the driver not to drive too fast.

2. Screw the connecting hose (10) onto the sealant bottle fitting.

3. Make sure the button (9) on the compressor is not pressed.

4. Remove the valve cap from the flat tire valve and screw the filler hose (3) of the sealant bottle onto the valve.

5. Insert the sealant bottle into the compressor holder (5) so that the bottle is in an upright position.

6. Make sure the compressor is off, position 0.

7. Connect the compressor to the vehicle power outlet using the cable and plugs (4).

8. With the engine start/stop button in the ON position or the ignition key in the ON position, turn on the compressor and let it run for about 5–7 minutes to inject the sealant until the required pressure is reached (see "Tires and Wheels" on page 8-48). The tire pressure after inflation does not matter and will be checked/adjusted later. Be careful not to overinflate the tire, and stay away from the tire while inflating it. If the tire or wheel is damaged, do not use the Tire Mobility Kit for safety reasons.

CAUTION

Tire Pressure

Do not attempt to drive the vehicle if the tire pressure is below 200 kPa (29 psi). This may cause an accident due to sudden tire failure.

9. Turn off the compressor.

10. Disconnect the hoses from the sealant bottle connector and from the tire valve.

Return the TMK to its storage location in the vehicle.

WARNING

Carbon Monoxide

Carbon monoxide poisoning and suffocation may occur if the engine is left running in a poorly ventilated or enclosed area (such as inside a building).
