Tire Sealing System

~1min read

(Only certain models.)

The temporary tire sealing system can be used to seal a puncture in a tire or to check and adjust the pressure in the tire.

Models equipped with a spare wheel1 do not have the tire sealing system.

The tire sealing system consists of a compressor and a bottle containing sealing compound. The sealant functions as a temporary repair.

Location

The tire sealing system is located in a foam block under the cargo compartment floor.
