Wheels and Tires Second Stage: Checking Tire Pressure WARNINGS If you are proceeding from the First Stage: Re-inflating 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), continue to the next step. The power plug may get hot after use and should be handled carefully while unplugging. Check the air pressure of your tires as follows: 2. Firmly screw the air compressor hose onto the valve stem by turning clockwise. 3. Push and turn the dial clockwise to the air position. 4. If required, turn on the compressor and adjust the tire to the recommended inflation pressure shown on the tire label located on the driver's door or door jamb area. The tire pressure should be checked with the compressor turned OFF in order to get an accurate pressure reading. 5. Unplug the hoses, re-install the valve cap on the tire and return the kit to the stowage area. What to do after the Tire has been Sealed After using the kit to seal your tire, you will need to replace the sealant canister. Sealant canisters and spare parts can be obtained at an authorized Ford dealer. Empty sealant canisters may be disposed of at home. However, canisters still containing liquid sealant should be disposed of by your local authorized Ford dealer or tire dealer, or in accordance with local waste disposal regulation. Note: After the sealing compound has been used, the maximum vehicle speed is 50 mph (80 km/h) and the maximum driving distance is 120 mi (200 km). The sealed tire should be inspected immediately. You can check the tire pressure any time within the 120 mi (200 km) by performing the steps listed previously in the Second stage: Checking Tire Pressure procedure. E175983 1.
