Injection

 CAUTION

• When a calcium chloride solution is used, cool it before

pouring it into the tire.

• Do not fill tires with water or solution more than 75 % of full

capacity (to the valve stem level).

The following four ways can be used to inject water or a calcium

chloride solution into tires.

1. Gravity injection 

"A"

2. Pump injection 

"B"

3. Pressure tank injection 

"C"

4. Injection directly from tap (only when water is being used).

NOTE

• Once injection is completed, reset the air valve, and pump

air into the tire to the specified pressure.
