Flat Tires
7. Stow the kit back in the vehicle and drive your vehicle immediately for 15 minutes or 6 miles( 10 km).
WARNING
. Drive carefully. Do not exceed 50 mph( 80 km / h). Driving faster than that can result in the vehicle shaking.
. Do not use tire chains on a sealed tire.
. Do not tow a trailer.
. If heavy vibrations, unsteady steering behavior or noises occur while driving, reduce your speed and drive with caution to a location where it is safe for you to stop the vehicle. Recheck the tire and its pressure. If the tire pressure is in the red zone of the air gauge or if there are any cracks, bumps or similar tire damage visible, temporary repairs cannot be performed with the repair kit. We recommend that you consult with your SUBARU dealer or road service provider.
8. After driving either for 15 minutes or a distance of 6 miles( 10 km), whichever occurs first, stop the vehicle in a safe place and check the tire pressure again( refer to step 5). When checking the tire pressure, turn the hose and sealant bottle counter-clockwise to disconnect them from the air compressor. Then attach the hose directly to the air compressor. If necessary, fill the tire with air to the appropriate air pressure again and drive carefully to the nearest SUBARU dealer for tire, valve stem and sealant bottle replacement.
NOTE
. Connect the air compressor only to the tire valve.
. When checking the tire pressure by connecting the hose to the air compressor, you can decrease the tire pressure by pressing the air release button.
CAUTION
. If the air pressure is in red zone of the air gauge, the kit did not successfully seal the puncture. In this case, please stop driving and contact your SUBARU dealer for help.
. Do not drive your vehicle with the sealed tire for more than 620 miles( 1,000 km). Failure to replace the valve stem may result in air leakage at the valve stem.
Before the tire is removed from the rim, inform your SUBARU dealer or other tire dealer that the tire contains sealant.
CAUTION
The sealant bottle, speed limit label and Tire Mobility Kit label need to be replaced after using the flat tire repair kit.
