What to Do in an Emergency

Using the Tire Mobility Kit

~1min read

1. Remove the speed limit label (0) from the sealant bottle (1) 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 (9) onto the sealant bottle fitting.

3. Make sure the threaded cap (8) is closed.

4. Unscrew the valve cap from the valve of the flat tire and screw the filler hose (2) of the sealant bottle onto the valve.

CAUTION

Securely install the sealant filler hose onto the valve. Otherwise, sealant may flow backward, which may cause the filler hose to become clogged.

5. Insert the sealant bottle into the compressor housing (4) so that the bottle is in an upright position.

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

7. Insert the compressor power cable (3) into the vehicle power outlet.

8. With the ignition key in the ON position, turn on the compressor and let it run for approximately 5-7 minutes to fill the tire with sealant to the proper pressure (refer to "Tires and Wheels", Chapter 8). Tire pressure after filling is not critical and will be checked/adjusted later.

Be careful not to overinflate the tire, and keep away from the tire while inflating it.

CAUTION

Do not attempt to drive the vehicle if tire pressure is below 29 psi (200 kPa). 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 tire mobility kit to its storage location in the vehicle.

WARNING

Do not leave the vehicle with the engine running in a poorly ventilated area for long periods. Carbon monoxide poisoning and suffocation may occur.
