2C_TMKPrecedure_3

  1. Park your vehicle in a safe location.

  2. Connect the filling hose (3) of the compressor directly to the tire valve.

  3. Plug the compressor power cord (4) into the vehicle power outlet.

  4. Adjust the tire inflation pressure to the recommended tire inflation.

    With the engine running, proceed as follows:

    • To increase the inflation pressure: Switch on the compressor. To check the current inflation pressure setting, briefly switch off the compressor.

    • To reduce the inflation pressure: Press the button (9) on the compressor.

Do not let the compressor run for more than 10 minutes, otherwise the device may overheat and may be damaged.

  • The pressure gauge may show higher than actual reading when the compressor is running. To get an accurate tire reading, the compressor needs to be turned off.

  • When reinstalling the repaired or replaced tire and wheel on the vehicle, tighten the wheel nut to 79-94 lbf·ft (11-13kgf·m).

Do not use the sealant when the tire pressure only needs to be adjusted.

The tire inflation pressure must be inflated to the proper pressure, refer to the "Tires and wheels" section in chapter 2. If it is not inflated, do not continue to drive.

Call for road side service or towing.
