Buick Lucerne Owner Manual - 2011

Using the Tire Sealant and Compressor
Kit to Temporarily Seal and Inflate a
Punctured Tire

Follow the directions closely for correct sealant usage.

When using the tire sealant and compressor kit
during cold temperatures, warm the kit in a heated
environment for five minutes. This will help to inflate the
tire faster.

If a tire goes flat, avoid further tire and wheel damage
by driving slowly to a level place. Turn on the hazard
warning flashers. See

turning it counterclockwise.

5. Attach the sealant/air hose (F) onto the tire valve

stem. Turn it clockwise until it is tight.

outlet in the vehicle. Unplug all items from other
accessory power outlets. See
