What Is the Tire Sealant and Inflator Kit

Tire Inflator and Sealant Kit

The kit consists of an air compressor to re-inflate the tire and a canister of sealing compound that will effectively seal most punctures. This kit will provide a temporary tire repair allowing you to drive your vehicle up to 120 mi (200 km) at a maximum speed of 50 mph (80 km/h) to reach a tire service location.

Note: The temporary mobility kit contains enough sealant compound in the canister for one tire repair only. See an authorized dealer for replacement sealant canisters.

Tire Sealant and Inflator Kit Precautions

WARNING: Failure to follow these guidelines could result in an increased risk of loss of vehicle control, injury or death.

WARNING: Do not run the engine when operating the air compressor unless the vehicle is outdoors or in a well-ventilated area.

Note: Do not use the kit if a tire has become severely damaged. Only punctures located within the tire tread can be sealed with the kit.

Do not attempt to repair punctures larger than 0.24 in (6 mm) or damage to the tire's sidewall. The tire may not completely seal.

• Drive carefully and avoid abrupt steering maneuvers.
• Periodically monitor tire inflation pressure in the affected tire; if the tire is losing pressure, have the vehicle towed.
• Read the information in the Tips for Use of the Kit section to make sure safe operation of the kit and your vehicle.
