Tire sealing system–temporarily repairing a flat tire

Temporarily repairing a flat tire is done in two stages:

• Stage 1: The hole is sealed by pumping sealing compound into the tire. The car is then driven a short distance to distribute the sealing compound in the tire.

NOTE
Do not remove any foreign objects (nails, etc.) from the tire before using the sealing system.

• Stage 2: The tire’s inflation pressure is checked and adjusted if necessary.

WARNING
• Never leave the tire sealing system unattended when it is operating.
• Keep the tire sealing system away from children.
• Be sure the vehicle is parked safely off the road and away from moving traffic.
• Apply the parking brake.
