{CAUTION: Idling the engine in a closed-in place or with the climate control system off can cause deadly carbon monoxide (CO). See Engine Exhaust on page 2-29. 6. Start the vehicle. See Starting the Engine (Key Access) on page 2-20 for more information. The vehicle must be running while using the air compressor. 7. Move the On/Off switch to the I (on) position. The pressure gage will initially show a high pressure while the compressor pushes the sealant into the tire. Once the sealant is completely dispersed into the tire, the pressure will quickly drop and start to rise again as the tire inflates with air. 8. Inflate the tire to the recommended inflation pressure, found on the Tire and Loading Information label located on the vehicle's center pillar (B-pillar) below the vehicle's door latch, using the air pressure gage on the top of the unit. The pressure gage reading is slightly high while the compressor is on. Turn the compressor off to get an accurate pressure reading. Notice: If the recommended pressure cannot be reached after 15 minutes, the vehicle should not be driven. The tire is too severely damaged and cannot be inflated or sealed with the tire sealant and compressor kit. Remove the air compressor accessory plug from the accessory power outlet and unscrew the sealant filling hose from the tire valve or tire pressure monitoring sensor valve. See Roadside Assistance Program on page 7-7. 9. Push the sealant and compressor kit switch to the O (off) position. {CAUTION: Inflating something too much can make it explode, and you or others could be injured. Be sure to read the inflator instructions, and inflate the tire to its recommended pressure. Do not exceed 36 psi (248 kPa). 5-79

{
CAUTION:
Idling the engine in a closed-in place or with
the climate control system off can cause
deadly carbon monoxide (CO). See
Engine
Exhaust on page 2-29
.
6. Start the vehicle. See
Starting the Engine
(Key Access) on page 2-20
for more information.
The vehicle must be running while using the
air compressor.
{
CAUTION:
Inflating something too much can make it
explode, and you or others could be injured.
Be sure to read the inflator instructions, and
inflate the tire to its recommended pressure.
Do not exceed 36 psi (248 kPa).
7. Move the On/Off switch to the I (on) position.
The pressure gage will initially show a high pressure
while the compressor pushes the sealant into the
tire. Once the sealant is completely dispersed
into the tire, the pressure will quickly drop and
start to rise again as the tire inflates with air.
8. Inflate the tire to the recommended inflation
pressure, found on the Tire and Loading Information
label located on the vehicle’s center pillar (B-pillar)
below the vehicle’s door latch, using the air pressure
gage on the top of the unit.
The pressure gage reading is slightly high while the
compressor is on. Turn the compressor off to get
an accurate pressure reading.
Notice:
If the recommended pressure cannot be
reached after 15 minutes, the vehicle should not
be driven. The tire is too severely damaged and
cannot be inflated or sealed with the tire sealant
and compressor kit. Remove the air compressor
accessory plug from the accessory power outlet and
unscrew the sealant filling hose from the tire valve or
tire pressure monitoring sensor valve. See
Roadside
Assistance Program on page 7-7
.
9. Push the sealant and compressor kit switch to
the O (off) position.
