Using the Tyre Mobility Kit

CAUTION

Detach the speed restriction label from the sealant bottle, and place it in a highly visible place inside the vehicle such as on the steering wheel to remind the driver not to drive too fast.

  1. Shake the sealant bottle.

  2. Remove the cap of the sealant bottle and screw connection hose onto the connector of the sealant bottle.

  3. Ensure that valve on the compressor is locked.

  4. Unscrew the valve cap from the valve of the defective tyre and screw the filling hose of the sealant bottle onto the tyre valve.

    CAUTION

    Securely install the sealant filling hose to the valve. If not, sealant may flow backward, possibly clogging the filling hose.

  5. Ensure that the compressor is switched off, position 0.

  6. Connect between compressor and the vehicle power outlet using the cable and connectors.

CAUTION

Do not connect another vehicle's Tyre Mobility Kit (TMK) to the power outlet. The unmatched power requirement between the vehicle power outlet and the tyre mobility kit can cause fire or circuit damage within the vehicle and the Tyre Mobility Kit.

  1. Make the ENGINE START/STOP button position on or ignition switch position on.

  2. Switch on the compressor and let it run for approximately 5~7 minutes to fill the sealant up to proper pressure. (refer to More Details). The inflation pressure of the tyre after filling is unimportant and will be checked/corrected later. Be careful not to overinflate the tyre and stay away from the tyre when filling it. When the tyre and wheel are damaged, do not use Tyre Mobility Kit for your safety.

    WARNING

    If the tyre pressure is below 26psi(180kPa), do not drive the vehicle. The tyre may cause accident.

  3. Switch off the compressor.

  4. Detach the sealant feeling hoses from the sealant bottle connector and from the tyre valve. After using, leave the sealant bottle and the compressor attached together.

Return the TMK to its storage location in the vehicle.

WARNING

Carbon monoxide

Do not leave your vehicle running in a poorly ventilated area for extended periods of time. Carbon monoxide poisoning and suffocation can occur.
