Warning!

Do not adhere the speed restriction sticker
to the padded area on the steering wheel.
Adhering the speed restriction sticker to
the padded area on the steering wheel is
dangerous because the air bag may not
operate (deploy) normally resulting in
serious injury. In addition, do not adhere
the sticker to areas where warning lights or
the speedometer cannot be viewed.

14. Adhere the repaired tire sticker to
the wheel of the flat tire.

15. When the tire inflates to the
specified tire inflation pressure, turn the
air compressor switch off, turn the
sleeve of the injection hose to the left,
and pull it out of the tire valve.

16. Remove the air compressor hose
from the injection valve of the bottle.
Then, install the injection hose to the
injection valve of the bottle to prevent
leakage of any remaining sealant.

Note:

The remaining sealant in the

hose may spray out when the hose is
removed. Remove the hose carefully
because you may not be able to
remove the sealant contacting clothing
or other objects.

17. Install the tire valve cap.

18. Place the Tire Service Kit back into
its storage location.

19. Start driving immediately to spread
the sealant in the tire.

Note:

Carefully drive the vehicle at a

speed of 50 mph (80 km/h) or less. If
the vehicle is driven at a speed of
50 mph (80 km/h) or more, the vehicle
may vibrate.

Note: With TPMS System:

if the tire

is not properly inflated, the

warning

light will illuminate.

After driving the vehicle for about

10 minutes or 3 miles (5 km), connect
the air compressor to the tire using
Step nine of the procedure, and check
the tire inflation pressure using the tire
pressure gauge on the air compressor.
If the tire inflation pressure is lower than
the specified tire inflation pressure, turn
the air compressor on and wait until it
reaches the specified tire inflation
pressure.

The Tire Service Kit is completed

successfully if the tire inflation pressure
does not decrease. Carefully drive the
vehicle to the nearest authorized dealer
immediately and have the flat tire
replaced. Replacement with a new tire
is recommended. If the tire is to be
repaired or reused, consult an
authorized dealer.

Note:

If an emergency flat tire repair has

been performed using the Tire Service
Kit, FCA recommends that the tire be
replaced with a new one as soon as
possible. If the tire is to be repaired or
reused, contact an authorized dealer.

The wheel can be reused if the

sealant adhering to it is removed.
However, replace the valve with a new
one.
