Roadside Emergencies 10. Immediately and cautiously, drive the vehicle 4 miles (6 km) to distribute the sealant evenly inside the tire. Do not exceed 50 mph (80 km/h). Note: If you experience any unusual vibration, ride disturbance or noise while driving, reduce your speed until you can safely pull off to the side of the road to call for roadside assistance. Do not proceed to the second stage of this operation. 11. After 4 miles (6 km), stop and check the tire pressure. See Second stage: Checking tire pressure. Second stage: Checking tire pressure Check the air pressure of your tires as follows: 1. Remove the valve cap from the tire valve. 2. Unhook the black hose from the side of the compressor and fasten firmly on the valve stem by turning clockwise. WARNING: If you are proceeding from the First stage: Reinflating the tire with sealing compound and air section and have injected sealant in the tire and the pressure is below 20 psi (1.4 bar), stop and call roadside assistance. If tire pressure is above 20 psi (1.4 bar), continue to the next step. 3. Turn the dial clockwise to the air position. Turn on the kit by pressing the on/off button. 4. Adjust the tire to the recommended inflation pressure from the tire label located on the driver's door or door jamb area. Pressing the deflation button near the sealant canister removes air from the tire. Note: The tire pressure has to be checked with the compressor in the OFF position to get the correct tire pressure reading. 345 2011 Explorer (exp) Owners Guide, 4th Printing USA (fus)
