Flat Tires 389
NOTE
. After the compressor starts to operate, the air pressure will temporarily rise to 45 psi( 300 kPa, 3.0 kgf / cm 2) or higher. After about 30 seconds when all of the sealant is inside the tire, the air pressure will lower, representing the air pressure in the tire.
. In extremely low temperatures −228F to −48F( −308C to −208C), the viscosity of the sealant increases and the sealant will flow more slowly. In such temperatures, bring the sealant into the vehicle to warm it up before use.
. When mending the tire, if the air pressure gauge is hard to read, turn the compressor switch off once to get an accurate reading.
6. Turn the air compressor power switch off when the air pressure reaches the green zone of the air gauge. Remove the power plug from the accessory power socket.
Remove the hose after filling the tire with air and fasten the valve cap.
CAUTION
The sealant may stain clothing.
